  • Patent number: 6772933
    Abstract: A welding shield system for reducing air movement about a welding area thereby allowing gas metal arc welding to be utilized in high air flow environments. The welding shield system includes a main body having an upper opening, a plurality of arm members extending from the main body, and a securing device attached to each of the arm members. The main body is positionable over the welding area thereby deflecting air flow thereto while allowing the welding gun to be inserted through the upper opening.
