Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Schneefangvorrichtung für geneigte Dachflächen gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a snow guard device for inclined roof surfaces according to the preamble of claim 1.

Bei geneigten Hausdächern besteht die Gefahr, dass Schnee und Eis von der Dachfläche abrutschen und Personen- und Sachschäden verursachen. Um diese Gefahren zu verringern, werden Schneefangvorrichtungen verwendet. Zum einen sind sogenannte Schneestopper bekannt, die beabstandet angeordnet in der Dachfläche verankert werden und vor allem das Abrutschen des Schnees auf der Dachfläche verhindern. Weiter sind Fanggitter und Fangstangen bekannt, die vorzugsweise entlang dem unteren Rand der Dachfläche angebracht werden und verhindern sollen, dass Schnee oder Eis über den Rand des Daches rutscht und herabstürzt.With sloping rooftops there is a risk that snow and ice slip off the roof surface and cause personal injury and property damage. In order to reduce these risks snow guards are used. On the one hand, so-called snowstoppers are known, which are arranged at a distance and anchored in the roof surface and, above all, prevent the slipping of the snow on the roof surface. Furthermore, safety grills and safety rods are known, which are preferably mounted along the lower edge of the roof surface and are intended to prevent snow or ice from slipping over the edge of the roof and falling down.

Aus der DE 100 42 266 A1 ist eine Schneefangvorrichtung der eingangs genannten Gattung bekannt. Als Befestigungsvorrichtung werden Profile auf dem Dach angebracht, die jeweils eine Rohrschelle tragen. In die Rohrschellen kann eine Fangstange eingeschoben und festgeklemmt werden. Die Profile dienen nur als Adapter zur Befestigung der Rohrschellen, sind jedoch nicht als Schneestopper ausgebildet.From the DE 100 42 266 A1 a snow guard device of the type mentioned is known. As a fastening device profiles are mounted on the roof, each carrying a pipe clamp. In the pipe clamps a catch rod can be inserted and clamped. The profiles serve only as an adapter for fixing the pipe clamps, but are not designed as snow stopper.

Aus der DE 33 03 306 A1 ist eine Schneefangvorrichtung bekannt, bei welcher in das Innenfeld der dreieckigen aus einem Metallband gebogenen Schneestopper eine Versteifungsplatte eingesetzt ist. Die Versteifungsplatte weist einen Durchbruch auf, in welchen eine Fangstange eingeschoben werden kann. Die Schneestopper dienen damit gleichzeitig zur Befestigung der Fangstangen. Allerdings können Fangstangen an den Schneestoppern nur dann befestigt werden, wenn bereits die entsprechenden Schneestopper auf dem Dach vorhanden sind.From the DE 33 03 306 A1 a snow gun device is known, in which in the infield of the triangular bent from a metal band snowstop a stiffening plate is inserted. The stiffening plate has an opening into which a catch rod can be inserted. The snowstoppers thus serve at the same time to attach the airbags. However, catch rods can only be attached to the snow stoppers if the corresponding snow stoppers already exist on the roof.

Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Schneefangvorrichtung zu schaffen, bei welcher ein Nachrüsten vorhandener Schneestopper mit Fangstangen möglich ist.The invention is therefore an object of the invention to provide a snow guard device, in which a retrofitting existing snowstop with air sockets is possible.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß gelöst durch eine Schneefangvorrichtung mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1.This object is achieved by a snow catcher with the features of claim 1.

Vorteilhafte Ausführungen und Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen angegeben.Advantageous embodiments and further developments of the invention are specified in the subclaims.

Der wesentliche Gedanke der Erfindung besteht darin, eine Rohrschelle vorzusehen, die nachrüstbar an den Schneestoppern angebracht werden kann. In diese Rohrschelle kann dann eine Fangstange, die im Allgemeinen als Rohr ausgebildet ist, eingesetzt werden. Es ergeben sich insbesondere zwei Vorteile. Zum einen können Dachflächen, die bereits mit Schneestoppern ausgestattet sind, nachträglich mit Fangstangen ausgerüstet werden, ohne dass die vorhandenen Schneestopper ausgetauscht oder geändert werden müssen. Eingriffe in die Dacheindeckung sind daher nicht erforderlich. Zum zweiten können dieselben Schneestopper verwendet werden, um nur die Funktion als Schneestopper zu erfüllen oder auch um als Montagemittel für Fangstangen zu dienen. Dies vereinfacht die Herstellungs- und Lagerhaltungskosten.The essential idea of the invention is to provide a pipe clamp which can be retrofitted to the snow stoppers. In this clamp then a fishing rod, which is generally designed as a tube can be used. There are two advantages in particular. On the one hand roof surfaces, which are already equipped with snowstops, can be retrofitted with airbags without the need to replace or change the existing snowstopper. Interventions in the roofing are therefore not required. Secondly, the same snowstoppers can be used to only function as a snow stopper or to serve as a mounting means for air termination rods. This simplifies the manufacturing and storage costs.

Unter dem Begriff "Rohrschelle" soll im Zusammenhang mit der vorliegenden Erfindung jedes Element verstanden werden, welches die Fangstange bzw. das Fangrohr aufnehmen, zumindest über einen Teil des Umfangs umschließen und halten kann.The term "pipe clamp" is to be understood in the context of the present invention, each element which receive the catch rod or the catch tube, at least enclose and hold over part of the circumference.

Die Schneestopper weisen einen dachaufwärts gewandten Fangrand auf, der vorzugsweise im Wesentlichen senkrecht zur Dachfläche steht und gegen den die Schneelast drückt. Die Rohrschellen werden an diesem dachaufwärts gerichteten Fangrand des Schneestoppers angebracht, da dadurch die auf die Fangstangen wirkende Schneelast über die Rohrschellen an den Schneestoppern abgestützt wird. Außerdem werden die Rohrschellen gegen die Schneestopper gedrückt, so dass die Befestigung der Rohrschellen an den Schneestoppern durch die Schneelasten nicht beansprucht wird, was insbesondere bei aufgeschnappten Rohrschellen wichtig ist.The snowstoppers have an upwardly directed catching edge, which is preferably substantially perpendicular to the roof surface and against which the snow load presses. The clamps are attached to this upstream catching edge of the snowstop, since thereby the snow load acting on the catch rods on the clamps on the snow stoppers is supported. In addition, the clamps are pressed against the snow stopper, so that the attachment of the clamps to the snow stoppers is not claimed by the snow loads, which is particularly important in snapped clamps.

Sind die Schneestopper in an sich bekannter Weise als Bügel aus einem Metallband gebogen, so werden die Rohrschellen vorzugsweise an diesem Metallband befestigt. Eine besonders montagefreundliche Befestigung ergibt sich vorzugsweise dadurch, dass die Rohrschellen mit einem plattenförmigen Halter ausgebildet sind, der auf das Metallband aufsetzbar ist und mit federnden Rastlaschen die Kante des Metallbandes hintergreift. Die Rohrschellen können bei dieser Befestigung in einfacher Weise auf die Schneestopper aufgeschnappt werden.If the snowstoppers are bent in a manner known per se as a bracket from a metal band, the pipe clamps are preferably fastened to this metal band. A particularly installation-friendly attachment preferably results from the fact that the pipe clamps are formed with a plate-shaped holder, which is placed on the metal strip and engages behind the edge of the metal strip with resilient locking tabs. The clamps can be snapped onto the snow stopper in this attachment in a simple manner.

Die Rohrschellen und ihre Halter sind vorzugsweise einstückig ausgebildet. Sie können aus Kunststoff oder Metall gefertigt sein.The clamps and their holders are preferably formed in one piece. They can be made of plastic or metal.

Die Rohrschellen können als geschlossene ringförmige Hülsen ausgebildet sein. In diesem Falle werden die Fangstangen in diese ringförmigen Rohrschellen eingesteckt. Vorzugsweise sind hierbei die Fangstangen als Rohrabschnitte ausgebildet, so dass mehrere Rohrabschnitte endseitig zusammen gesteckt werden können, um große Rohrlängen zu bilden.The clamps may be formed as a closed annular sleeves. In this case, the interception rods are inserted into these annular clamps. Preferably, in this case the interception rods are formed as pipe sections, so that a plurality of pipe sections can be plugged together end to form large pipe lengths.

In einer anderen Ausführung umschließen die Rohrschellen nur einen Teil des Kreisumfangs, so dass sie durch zwei federnde Arme gebildet sind. In diesem Falle kann die Fangstange in die auseinander spreizbare Rohrschelle eingeschnappt werden. Insbesondere in dieser Ausführung ist es von Vorteil, wenn der Öffnungsspalt der Rohrschelle dachaufwärts gerichtet ist, da bei dieser Anordnung die auf die Fangstange wirkende Schneelast die Fangstange nicht aus der Rohrschelle herausdrücken kann.In another embodiment, the clamps surround only a part of the circumference, so that they are formed by two resilient arms. In this case, the catch rod can be snapped into the auseinanderschreizbare clamp. In particular, in this embodiment, it is advantageous if the opening gap of the pipe clamp is directed upstream, since in this arrangement, the acting on the fishing rod snow load the catch rod can not push out of the clamp.

Die erfindungsgemäße Schneefangvorrichtung eignet sich für eine Vielzahl von unterschiedlich gestalteten Schneestoppern. Insbesondere können die erfindungsgemäßen Rohrschellen auch bei einer Vielzahl von bereits auf dem Markt befindlichen Schneestoppern verwendet werden. Der Patentschutz soll sich daher auch auf die Rohrschellen allein als Nachrüstartikel erstrecken.The snow guard device according to the invention is suitable for a large number of differently designed snowstoppers. In particular, the pipe clamps according to the invention can also be used in a variety of already on the market snowstoppers. The patent protection should therefore extend to the pipe clamps alone as a retrofit article.

Die Schneefangvorrichtung weist Schneestopper 10 auf, die an sich bekannt sind. Die Schneestopper 10 werden in gegenseitigem Abstand auf geneigten Dachflächen angeordnet und dienen dazu, eine sich auf der Dachfläche ansammelnde Schneeschicht zu halten und an einem Abrutschen zu hindern. In den Figuren 1 und 2 ist ein solcher Schneestopper 10 dargestellt.The snow guard device has snowstoppers 10 which are known per se. The snowstoppers 10 are arranged at a mutual distance on inclined roof surfaces and serve to hold a accumulating on the roof surface snow layer and to prevent it from slipping. In the FIGS. 1 and 2 such a snowstop 10 is shown.

In dem dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel ist der Schneestopper 10 aus einem Metallband gebogen und hat die Form eines Dreiecks. Die Grundseite 12 des Dreiecks liegt auf der Dachfläche auf. Ein Schenkel des Dreiecks, der den Fangrand 14 bildet, steht in einem steilen Winkel von etwa 90° von der Dachfläche ab. Die dritte Seite des Dreiecks ist als Stützschenkel 16 ausgebildet. Der Schneestopper 10 wird in der Weise auf der Dachfläche angeordnet, dass die Grundseite 12 in der Falllinie der Dachneigung liegt, dass der den Fangrand 14 bildende Schenkel dachaufwärts gerichtet ist und dass der Stützschenkel 16 dachabwärts weist. Der Schneestopper 10 wird mittels eines Befestigungsmetallbandes 18 in der Dachkonstruktion verankert. Die Ausbildung und Verankerung des Befestigungsmetallbandes 18 kann in beliebiger an sich bekannter Weise realisiert werden, weshalb das Befestigungsmetallband 18 in der Zeichnung nur ansatzweise gezeigt ist. Das Befestigungsmetallband 18 kann, wie dargestellt, mit dem Metallband des Schneestoppers 10 verbunden, z. B. vernietet oder verschweißt sein oder kann einstückig aus demselben Metallband wie der Schneestopper 10 gebertigt sein.In the illustrated embodiment, the snow stopper 10 is bent from a metal band and has the shape of a triangle. The base 12 of the triangle rests on the roof surface. One leg of the triangle, which forms the fishing edge 14, is at a steep angle of about 90 ° from the roof surface. The third side of the triangle is designed as a support leg 16. The snow stopper 10 is arranged on the roof surface in such a way that the base 12 lies in the fall line of the roof pitch, that the leg forming the fishing edge 14 is directed upwards and that the support leg 16 points down the roof. The snow stopper 10 is anchored by means of a fastening metal band 18 in the roof construction. The formation and anchoring of the fastening metal band 18 can be realized in any manner known per se, which is why the fastening metal band 18 is only partially shown in the drawing. The fastening metal band 18 can, as shown, connected to the metal strip of the snow stopper 10, z. B. riveted or welded or may be made in one piece from the same metal band as the snow stopper 10.

Insoweit ist der Schneestopper 10 an sich bekannt, wobei auch andere Ausbildungen des Schneestoppers 10 möglich sind und von der Erfindung mit umfasst werden.In that regard, the snow stopper 10 is known per se, with other embodiments of the snow stopper 10 are possible and are encompassed by the invention.

Erfindungsgemäß kann an dem Schneestopper 10 eine Rohrschelle 20 nachrüstbar befestigt werden. Die Figuren 1 und 2 zeigen einen Schneestopper 10 mit montierter Rohrschelle 20, während die Figuren 3 bis 5 die Rohrschelle 20 allein zeigen.According to the invention, a pipe clamp 20 can be retrofitted to the snow stopper 10. The FIGS. 1 and 2 show a snow stopper 10 with mounted clamp 20, while the FIGS. 3 to 5 show the clamp 20 alone.

Die Rohrschelle 20 hat die Form einer ringförmig geschlossenen Hülse und ist einstückig mit einem Halter 22 ausgebildet. Die Rohrschelle 20 und der Halter 22 können aus Kunststoff oder Metall gefertigt sein. Der Halter 22 hat die Form einer im Wesentlichen rechteckigen Platte, deren Breite der Breite des Metallbandes des Schneestoppers 10 entspricht. Der Halter 22 ist auf den dachaufwärts gerichteten, den Fangrand 14 bildenden Schenkel des Schneestoppers 10 aufsetzbar. Hierzu weist die Platte des Halters 22 an ihren beiden Längsrändern abgewinkelte Führungsstege 24 auf, die sich außen an die Längskanten des Metallbandes des Fangrandes 14 anlegen, so dass der Halter 22 flächendeckend auf dem Fangrand 14 aufsitzt. In der Längsmitte der Platte des Halters 22 ist beiderseits symmetrisch jeweils eine Rastlasche 26 ausgebildet. Die Rastlaschen 26 sind dadurch gebildet, dass die Platte des Halters 22 von ihren Längskanten ausgehend jeweils zwei Schlitze 28 aufweist, die die Rastlaschen 26 seitlich frei schneiden. Die Materialstärke und die Materialeigenschaften des Halters 22 erlauben eine elastisch federnde Auslenkung der Rastlaschen 26. An ihren in den Längskanten des Halters 22 verlaufenden freien Enden sind die Rastlaschen 26 jeweils zweifach abgewinkelt, so dass sie zunächst entsprechend den Führungsstegen 24 an der Außenkante des Metallbandes des Fangrandes 14 anliegen und dann den Außenrand des Metallbandes hintergreifen, wodurch der Halter 22 und mit diesem die Rohrschelle 20 an dem Metallband und damit dem Schneestopper 10 festgelegt wird. Das Hintergreifen des Metallbandes durch die Rastlaschen 26 ist in Figur 2 sichtbar. Auf der von dem Fangrand 14 abgewandten Oberseite des Halters 22 sind auf den Rastlaschen 26 jeweils abstehende Fingerauflagen 30 angeformt. Um die Rohrschelle 20 auf den Schneestopper 10 aufzusetzen, werden die beiden Fingerauflagen 30 gegeneinander zusammengedrückt, wodurch die Rastlaschen 26 aus der Ebene des Halters 22 leicht hochgeschwenkt werden. Die nach innen abgewinkelten freien Enden der beiden Rastlaschen 26 werden dadurch auseinander gespreizt, so dass ihr Abstand größer als die Breite des Metallbandes wird und der Halter 22 auf das Metallband aufgesetzt und gegebenenfalls auch wieder abgenommen werden kann. Werden die Fingerauflagen 30 dann frei gegeben, so schwenken die freien Enden der Rastlaschen 26 elastisch federnd nach innen und hintergreifen das Metallband des Schneestoppers 10.The clamp 20 has the shape of an annularly closed sleeve and is integrally formed with a holder 22. The clamp 20 and the holder 22 may be made of plastic or metal. The holder 22 has the shape of a substantially rectangular plate whose width corresponds to the width of the metal strip of the snow stopper 10. The holder 22 can be placed on the upwardly directed, the fishing edge 14 forming legs of the snow stopper 10. For this purpose, the plate of the holder 22 at its two longitudinal edges angled guide webs 24, which create the outside of the longitudinal edges of the metal strip of the fishing edge 14, so that the holder 22 is seated on the catch edge 14 across the board. In the longitudinal center of the plate of the holder 22 on both sides symmetrically in each case a locking tab 26 is formed. The locking tabs 26 are formed by the fact that the plate of the holder 22 starting from their longitudinal edges each have two slots 28 which cut the locking tabs 26 laterally free. The material thickness and the material properties of the holder 22 allow an elastically resilient deflection of the locking tabs 26. At their running in the longitudinal edges of the holder 22 free ends of the locking tabs 26 are each angled twice, so that they first according to the guide webs 24 on the outer edge of the metal strip Fangrandes 14 abut and then engage behind the outer edge of the metal strip, whereby the holder 22 and with this the pipe clamp 20 is fixed to the metal strip and thus the snow stopper 10. The engaging behind the metal strip by the locking tabs 26 is in figure 2 visible, noticeable. On the side facing away from the fishing edge 14 top of the holder 22 26 each protruding finger pads 30 are integrally formed on the locking tabs. To put the clamp 20 on the snow stopper 10, the two finger supports 30 are pressed against each other, whereby the locking tabs 26 are slightly swung up from the plane of the holder 22. The inwardly angled free ends of the two locking tabs 26 are thereby spread apart, so that their distance is greater than the width of the metal strip and the holder 22 can be placed on the metal strip and optionally also removed again. If the finger supports 30 are then released, then pivot the free ends of the locking tabs 26 resiliently inward and engage behind the metal band of the snow stopper 10th

Die Rohrschelle 20 ist auf der von dem Schneestopper 10 abgewandten Oberseite auf dem einen Längsende des Halters 22 angeordnet, wobei die Achse der Rohrschelle 20 senkrecht zur Längsachse des Halters 22 und damit senkrecht zur Dreiecksebene des Schneestoppers 10 verläuft. Ist der Schneestopper 10 in der Falllinie der Dachneigung angeordnet, so verläuft die Achse der Rohrschelle 20 somit parallel zur Dachfläche und senkrecht zur Falllinie der Dachneigung. Sind Schneestopper 10, die auf gleicher Höhe der Dachfläche angeordnet sind mit Rohrschellen 20 ausgestattet, so kann eine Fangstange, insbesondere ein Fangrohr in die Rohrschellen 20 der auf gleicher Höhe nebeneinander liegenden Schneestopper 10 eingeschoben werden, um zusätzlich zu den die Schneeschicht stabilisierenden Schneestoppern 10 abrutschenden Schnee oder Eis aufzufangen und festzuhalten. Um größere Längen der Fangstangen bzw. Fangrohre zu erhalten, werden diese vorzugsweise aus Einzelabschnitten zusammengesteckt.The clamp 20 is disposed on the side facing away from the snow stopper 10 top on the one longitudinal end of the holder 22, wherein the axis of the clamp 20 is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the holder 22 and thus perpendicular to the triangular plane of the snow stopper 10. If the snow stopper 10 is arranged in the fall line of the roof pitch, the axis of the pipe clamp 20 thus extends parallel to the roof surface and perpendicular to the falling line of the roof pitch. If snow stopper 10, which are arranged at the same height of the roof surface with pipe clamps 20, so a fishing rod, in particular a fishing rod in the pipe clamps 20 of the same height adjacent snow stopper 10 are inserted to slip in addition to the snow layer stabilizing snow stoppers 10 Catch snow or ice and hold on. In order to obtain longer lengths of the safety rods or catch tubes, they are preferably assembled from individual sections.

Wird die Rohrschelle 20 mit dem Halter 22 in der in den Figuren 1 und 2 dargestellten Richtung auf den Schneestopper 10 aufgesetzt, so liegt das die Rohrschelle 20 tragende Ende des Halters 22 an dem von der Dachfläche abgewandten Ende des Halters 22. Die Rohrschelle 20 und eine in diese Rohrschelle 20 eingesetzte Fangstange haben somit maximalen Abstand von der Dachfläche. Dies ist von Vorteil, wenn größere Dicken der Schneeschicht die Regel sind. Soll der Abstand der Fangstange von der Dachfläche verringert werden, so kann die Platte des Halters 22 gekürzt werden, wozu an dem der Rohrschelle 20 entgegengesetzten Ende des Halters 22 Sollbruchlinien 32 vorgesehen sind, die die Materialstärke der Platte des Halters 22 verringern und ein Abbrechen des Halters 22 ermöglichen. Die Sollbruchlinien 32, in dem dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel zwei Sollbruchlinien 32, verlaufen parallel zu dem Ende des Halters 22. Wird der Halter 22 durch Abbrechen an einer der Sollbruchlinien 32 verkürzt, so kann der Halter 22 auf dem Fangrand 14 des Schneestoppers 10 weiter nach unten gegen die Dachfläche verschoben werden, wodurch sich auch der Abstand der Rohrschelle 20 und einer in die Rohrschelle 20 eingeschobenen Fangstange von der Dachfläche verringert. Ein minimaler Abstand der Rohrschelle 20 und der Fangstange von der Dachfläche kann dadurch erhalten werden, dass der Halter 22 gegenüber der Darstellung der Figuren 1 und 2 um 180° gedreht auf den Schneestopper 10 aufgesetzt wird. Damit grenzt das die Rohrschelle 20 tragende Ende des Halters 22 an die Dachfläche an und die Rohrschelle 20 und die eingesteckte Fangstange verlaufen in minimalem Abstand über der Dachfläche. Die Reduzierung des Abstandes der Fangstange von der Dachoberfläche kann von Vorteil sein, um auch dünnere Schneeschichten und insbesondere dünnere Eisplatten zurückzuhalten.If the clamp 20 with the holder 22 in the in FIGS. 1 and 2 placed direction on the snow stopper 10, so is the pipe clamp 20 supporting end of the holder 22 at the end facing away from the roof end of the holder 22. The pipe clamp 20 and an inserted into this clamp 20 fishing rod thus have maximum distance from the roof surface. This is an advantage if larger thicknesses of the snow layer are the rule. If the distance of the fishing rod of the roof surface can be reduced, the plate of the holder 22 can be shortened, to which the pipe clamp 20 opposite end of the holder 22 predetermined breaking lines 32 are provided which reduce the material thickness of the plate of the holder 22 and a cancel of the Halters 22 allow. The predetermined breaking lines 32, in the illustrated embodiment, two predetermined breaking lines 32, parallel to the end of the holder 22. If the holder 22 shortened by breaking one of the predetermined breaking lines 32, the holder 22 on the fishing edge 14 of the snow stopper 10 further down against the roof surface to be moved, which also reduces the distance between the pipe clamp 20 and an inserted into the pipe clamp 20 fishing rod of the roof surface. A minimal distance of the pipe clamp 20 and the fishing rod of the roof surface can be obtained by the holder 22 relative to the representation of FIGS. 1 and 2 rotated by 180 ° on the snow stopper 10 is placed. Thus adjoins the pipe clamp 20 supporting end of the holder 22 to the roof surface and the pipe clamp 20 and the inserted fishing rod extend at a minimum distance above the roof surface. The reduction of the distance of the fishing rod from the roof surface may be advantageous to retain even thinner snow layers and in particular thinner ice sheets.

In Figur 8 ist eine abgewandelte Ausführung der Rohrschelle 20 dargestellt. Der Halter 22 entspricht der vorangehend beschriebenen Ausführung. Die Rohrschelle 20 ist in dieser Ausführung nicht als ringförmig geschlossene Hülse ausgebildet, sondern mit zwei federnden Armen 34, die die eingesetzte Fangstange bzw. das eingesetzte Fangrohr nur über etwas mehr als den halben Umfang umgreifen. Die Fangstange bzw. das Fangrohr kann in diese Ausführung in die Rohrschelle 20 eingeschnappt werden, wozu die Fangstange gegen die Arme 34 gedrückt wird und diese auseinander spreizt, bis die Fangstange in der Rohrschelle 20 aufgenommen ist und die Arme 34 zurückschnappen und die Fangstange umschließen können.In FIG. 8 a modified embodiment of the pipe clamp 20 is shown. The holder 22 corresponds to the embodiment described above. The pipe clamp 20 is not formed in this embodiment as a ring-shaped closed sleeve, but with two resilient arms 34 which engage around the catch rod used or the catch tube only over a little more than half the circumference. The catch rod or the catch tube can be snapped into this embodiment in the pipe clamp 20, to which the catch rod is pressed against the arms 34 and spreads them apart until the catch rod is received in the clamp 20 and the arms 34 snap back and can surround the catch rod ,

Da der Halter 22 mit der Rohrschelle 20 auf der dachaufwärts gerichteten Seite des Schneestoppers 10 auf dessen Fangrand 14 aufgesetzt ist, drückt die dachabwärts gerichtete Schneelast den Halter 22 gegen das Bandmetall des Fangrandes 14. Die Rastbefestigung des Halters 22 mit den Rastlaschen 26 muss daher keine Kraft aufnehmen. Die einfache Schnappbefestigung des Halters 22 auf dem Schneestopper 10 mittels der Rastlaschen 26 ist daher vollkommen ausreichend. Bei der Ausführungsform der Figur 6 drückt die dachabwärts gerichtete Kraft der Schneelast auch die Fangstange bzw. das Fangrohr in die Rohrschelle 20 hinein, so dass auch die federnden Arme 34 der Rohrschelle 20 keine Kraft aufnehmen müssen. Auch hier genügt ein einfaches Einschnappen der Fangstange bzw. des Fangrohres in die Rohrschnelle 20 für eine zuverlässige Befestigung.Since the holder 22 is placed with the pipe clamp 20 on the upstream side of the snow stopper 10 on the fishing edge 14, pushes the roof downwards directed snow load the holder 22 against the band metal of the fishing edge 14. The latching attachment of the holder 22 with the locking tabs 26 must therefore no Take power. The simple snap fastening of the holder 22 on the snow stopper 10 by means of the locking tabs 26 is therefore completely sufficient. In the embodiment of the FIG. 6 pushes the roof-directed force of the snow load and the catch rod or the catch tube in the clamp 20 so that the resilient arms 34 of the clamp 20 must take no force. Again, a simple snapping the fishing rod or catch tube in the tube fast 20 is sufficient for a reliable attachment.
