A ring assembly for compressed gas cylinders includes either a separate adaptor removably attachable to existing gas cylinders or, a ring member integral with the top portion of manufactured cylinders. In any case, a ring plate provides a horizontal, radially disposed lift plate that serves to allow lifting, transporting and storage of the cylinders. In the adaptor version, the ring plate surrounds a collar having upper and lower portions respectively provided with external and internal threads. The lower portion threads engage with the existing external threads on the top portion of gas cylinders and which normally provide for attachment of the required safety cap while the upper portion threads duplicate the cylinder threads and thus enable attachment of the protector cap thereto. Manipulation or hanging of a cylinder equipped with the ring adaptor may be by manual grasping of the ring plate or by insertion of lift hooks into holes formed in the ring plate or by placing lift forks beneath the plate. Such lifting means may be part of a hand operated grappling device, suspended from a hoist line, mounted upon a hand truck or the like or, fixedly attached to a wall or panel. Securing and removal of the ring adaptor from a cylinder is facilitated through use of a spanner tool having prongs engageable within diametrically opposed notches on the periphery of the ring plate.

In a gas cylinder for storing compressed gas, the gas cylinder having weight, a longitudinal axis, a curved shoulder, and a protector cap having internal threads, the improvement comprising: a ring assembly disposed atop said gas cylinder, said ring assembly having an outer surface and a neck including upper external threads engageable with the protector cap internal threads, an integral lower frustoconical skirt depending from said neck, and a flat, planar radially extending ring flange normal to said gas cylinder longitudinal axis, said ring flange fixed to said ring assembly outer surface and including a plurality of holes therethrough, said frustoconical skirt being substantially parallel to said gas cylinder curved shoulder whereby when said ring assembly, and thus said gas cylinder, is grasped and manipulated at said ring flange selectively by fingers, hooks, and lifting forks, and said gas cylinder is lifted and moved, said weight is distributed about said ring assembly, the fingers, hooks, and lifting forks maintaining contact with said ring flange along a partial plane, said ring flange avoiding concave and convex configuration which would otherwise tend to entangle the fingers, hooks, and lifting forks.
