    Abstract: A sprinkler guard, mountable to a fire protection sprinkler, includes a first plate with projections from the first plate in a first lateral direction orthogonal to a central axis, and a lower surface facing a downward direction opposite to the upward direction, a second plate with projections from the second plate in a second lateral direction opposite to the first, and a lower surface facing the downward direction, first and second legs having an upper end attached to the lower surface of the first plate, a middle portion extending in the downward direction, and a lower end, third and fourth legs having an upper end attached to the lower surface of the second plate, a middle portion extending in the downward direction, and a lower end. A circular ring is attached to the lower ends of the first to fourth legs, and the legs are spaced about the circular ring.

    Abstract: A sprinkler with a push-in connection includes a sprinkler frame, an operating element, and a sealing cap. The sprinkler also includes one or more sealing gaskets and a retainer. Each such sealing gasket is located at least partially within a groove in the sprinkler frame. The retainer is also at least partially located within a groove in the sprinkler frame. The retainer connects to an internal bore of an outlet of a fluid supply conduit when the sprinkler is installed in the outlet. The one or more gaskets seal against the internal bore of the outlet when the sprinkler is installed in the outlet. The retainer is a spring mechanism so that the diameter of the retainer is reduced when the sprinkler is inserted into the internal bore of the outlet, and the retainer maintains pressure against the outlet internal bore.

Each such sealing gasket is located at least partially within a groove in the sprinkler frame. The retainer is also at least partially located within a groove in the sprinkler frame. The retainer connects to the internal bore of a welded outlet or a mechanical outlet when the sprinkler is installed in the outlet.

    Abstract: A sprinkler guard includes two or more plates centered relative to a central axis of the sprinkler guard. A plurality of legs includes first and second legs that are attached to one plate, and third and fourth legs that are attached to another plate. A circular ring is attached to lower ends of the first to fourth legs, a center of the circular ring coinciding with the central axis, and the first to fourth legs being spaced apart about the circumference of the circular ring. First and second swing arms are rotatably attached to the first and second legs, respectively, and are configured to be snap fit into indents on the third and fourth legs, respectively. In addition, a cross bar is attached to the circular ring and extends across a diameter of the circular ring.
