ABSTRACT:
A safety guard assembly for a rotary-type cutter such as the cutting blade of a rotary lawn mower. The safety guard assembly is in the form of a cage made of a plurality of parallelly disposed non-cutting individual guard members surrounding the cutting blade about its cutting edge and disposed along cylindrical surfaces perpendicular to the plane of rotation of the blade. The guard members project beyond the tip of the cutting edge and below the blade and have a gently curvilinear edge surface for deflecting solid objects in the path of the cutting edge or for permitting the blade to ride over solid objects, such as to minimize projection of stones and the like, and to deflect and minimize damages or injury to a hand or a finger accidentally placed in the path of the cutter blade. Preferably, the safety guard assembly is supported by a mounting plate removably fastened on the bottom of the cutter blade.
