A protective apparatus for hose assemblies (38) preventing damaging contact between the hose assemblies (38) and the equipment (10). The hose assemblies are subjected to damage due to scraping against the equipment they are associated with when the equipment and hose assemblies move relative to each other. The protective apparatus of the present invention includes a protective sleeve (46) encasing the assemblies (38) which connect a first member (32) to a second member (36) adjacent the equipment (10). A resilient cushion (66) surrounds the split sleeve (46) serving to hold the sleeve in position around the assemblies and peripherally cushioning the sleeve (46). The protective apparatus is useful in protecting hydraulic hose assemblies used in earthmoving equipment. |
