Abstract
Abstract A multiple canister mount for receiving at different times different sized bolt connectors of canisters for protective masks and the like. The device comprises a base and a pair of spaced annular rims secured to and upwardly projecting from the base. The inner wall of each rim is threaded with threads of appropriate form, and is of a diameter, so as to receive a canister bolt connector of particular size and having a particular thread form. The device also comprises a centrally disposed valve opening and valve seat secured to the base. Such a device provides a simple effective means for securing canisters, which may have different sized bolt connectors, at different times to the same protective mask.
