ABSTRACT:
A guard ring for long distance transmission cables for preventing wet snow from accumulating on the cables. The guard ring consists of two half collars of a hard elastic plastic material integrally joined by a hinge strap at one end and having interlocking hooks at their free ends to form a closed ring that tightly encloses the cable. Beaks or the like are integral with the inner ends of the half collars and face each other in the area of the hinge. The beaks cover a part of the hinge strap from both sides, so that when the half collars are open, they form, together with the hinge strap, a T-shaped groove for conveniently holding the rings in a row, prior to assembly, on a corresponding T-shaped rail. When the half-collars are closed and the ring secured to the cable, the beaks are bent apart a sufficient distance so that the rings can easily be removed from the rail. An assembly tool is also provided for clamping the rings about the cable.
