ABSTRACT:
A snow guard is described which includes an integrated plastic part with a snow retaining part, as well as a bearing part and a retaining strap that can be moved and secured in the integrated plastic part. A shoulder connected to the snow retaining part, as well as the horizontal part and a projection of the retaining strap, form two arms that engage the lower end of a roof tile in the manner of prongs. The upper area of the vertical part of the strap is provided with a nose, and a spring surrounds the upper area of the vertical part of the strap and the nose. A catch plate with catch teeth is provided in the integrated plastic part parallel to the vertical part of the retaining strap. To assemble the snow guard, the retaining strap is inserted into a guide channel arranged in a vertical guide part, and a spring engages between two catch teeth. The snow guard can be used for roof tiles of any shape and thickness.
