RAY GUARDSerial 73179566 · Principal Register
Dead · Cancelled
Owner: BENSON OPTICAL CO. INC.
Class 009 - Electrical & Scientific Apparatus
Filed Jul 24, 1978
Registered Feb 26, 1980
The record shows that “RAY GUARD” is a cancelled Principal Register registration (Reg. No. 1131263) owned by Benson Optical Co. Inc., a Delaware corporation; the cancellation was entered on August 8 1986 because the owner failed to file a required Section 8 declaration. The registration covered only Class 009, specifically “special lenses made of non‑hardened glass to be utilized for ‘X‑band radiation only’ and has specific utility in the medical field by radiologists and cardiologists.” A similar name used for anything outside that narrow medical‑lens niche would be the closest record‑based concern, but the record does not give the owner control over every use of the words “Ray Guard.” The latest meaningful event is the Section 8 cancellation in 1986, and no opposition, cancellation proceeding, or other enforcement activity appears in the supplied history. I'd treat this as a modest concern if you plan a name in the same medical‑lens space.
Full event history, owner details, and verdict inside.
The way I'd use it, honestly, is as the thing you attach when a bank, a marketplace, or a co-founder asks "are we clear on the name". It answers in one page.
