  • Patent number: 10245752
    Abstract: Examples herein include a chainsaw bar shield and a method for using a chainsaw bar shield. A chainsaw bar shield comprises a bar shield arm extending from at least one securing mechanism for engaging and pinching a chainsaw bar extending from a chainsaw housing. The securing mechanism offsets the bar shield arm from a chainsaw chain extending from the chainsaw housing and, thereby, protects a user by separating the user from the chainsaw chain during maintenance of a chainsaw. Other examples of a chainsaw bar shield comprise an enclosure secured to a chainsaw bar which is offset from and substantially encloses a chainsaw chain extending from a chainsaw housing.
