Abstract

See full text

A protective sleeve for protecting a ratchet cap or winch from damage or deterioration due to dirt of moisture is fabricated of a sturdy yet elastic material, which may be rubber. The sleeve is cylindrical in form and has circular grooves, which run parallel to each other formed on the inner surface of the sleeve. Cylindrical bars separate the grooves from each other. Mating grooves to those formed on the sleeve are formed on the ratchet cap or winch. The sleeve is installed in position on the cap or winch by forcing it into position over the cap or winch with the bars of the sleeve installed in the grooves of the cap or winch and the bars of the cap or winch installed in the grooves of the sleeve. This provides for firm retention of the sleeve in its installed position and permits relative rotation between the elements of the ratcheting member, yet the sleeve can readily be removed from its installed position without damage thereto.
