Mystery ring

I recently bought a secondhand Meade LX90 8" SCT.

As part of the package, I received 8 Super Plossl eyepieces, a 2x Barlow, CLS filter, 5 coloured filters & a moon filter.

In the case is a black ring, fitted with a knurled knob that screws through the ring, similar to an eyepiece holder. The ring is 1.25" internal diameter & about 5mm thickness, metal construct.

I have no idea what this is for, can anyone shed light on it's purpose please.

Thankyou

Carlton
