Abstract: A strip brush moving surface guard mounted on a fixed surface and projecting over the edge of the moving surface includes a base for the strip brush and an elongated holder secured to the fixed surface. The holder includes a drop-in recess for the base with the primary horizontal fasteners for the holder extending through the recess so that they are concealed when the base is in place. Smaller secondary fasteners extend transversely of the primary fasteners or almost vertically to hold the strip brush base in place in the drop-in recess. The recess and base include mating pilot surfaces to facilitate the seating or placement of the base in the recess.

Abstract: A strip brush moving surface guard is mounted to extend along a fixed surface with the strip brush projecting over the edge of the moving surface to guard the gap between the moving and fixed surfaces. The strip brush includes a base. An elongated holder is secured to the fixed surface and the base and holder are hingedly connected so that the strip brush may yield and pivot or hinge away from the moving surface. The hinge may be an elongated rod and socket connection. When assembled to the fixed surface, the fixed surface acts to block disassembly of the hinge without removal of the holder form the fixed surface.
