ABSTRACT:
A drive shaft cover assembly for a drive shaft having a longitudinal axis including a stationary bracket having an axially extending flange at least partially surrounding the drive shaft and having one or more radially extending apertures therethrough. A cover member has a retaining portion sized to fit radially over the flange with apertures therein aligned with the apertures in the flange. A spring retainer is disposed radially within the flange and has a stud projecting radially outward through each aperture in the flange and through the aligned apertures in the cover member to retain the cover member on the flange. The spring retainer is resilient to enable the studs to be pushed radially inward to withdraw the studs from the apertures in the cover member to remove and remount the cover member on the flange without the use of hand tools.
