APPARATUS FOR RETAINING FLUID HOSES TO A FARM IMPLEMENT FRAME Russian patent published in 2016 - IPC A01C23/02 F16L3/22 

FIELD: agriculture.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to agricultural machine building, more particularly, to an apparatus for retaining fluid hoses to a farm implement frame. Bracket arrangement for securing fertilizer hoses, such as those for carrying anhydrous ammonia, to the frame of a fertilizer applicator or similar implement is made of a corrosion resistant material. Bracket arrangement is designed to be removably attached to the farm implement frame to allow flexibility in where along the frame the hoses, or bundles of hoses, are retained. Bracket arrangement includes a bracket having an elongated and generally planar body with an eyelet formed in the planar body. Eyelet are configured to pass a length of hose and restrict movement of the hose in a direction orthogonal to its length. Body has a slot configured to pass a length of hose of the hose arrangement.

EFFECT: such a design solution is aimed at decreasing labour costs during installation of arrangement for retaining hoses, as well as at increasing efficiency of such an arrangement.
