Abstract

The satellite dish snow shield is an add-on device that is designed to fit most commercially produced satellite dish sizes and shapes, and self-aligns as it is installed. This snow shield is a solid curved hood-shaped barrier that attaches at the top of the satellite dish and extends out at a relatively perpendicular angle from the face of the satellite dish. In this way, the snow shield prevents snow build-up and signal disruption by catching and diverting failing snow before it reaches the face of the satellite dish. This satellite snow shield does not, in any way, shroud the actual face of the satellite dish (antenna). Snow falling on these shroud type devices can themselves collect snow in a way that will eventually cause signal loss. However, no matter how much snow accumulates on the snow shield, my device continues to allow for a clear and unobstructed satellite signal to reach the dish (antenna). Due to the unique tab and clip system, my snow shield is a true snap-on device that requires no screws, nuts, bolts or tools of any kind to install and secure into place.
