Gutter assembly utilizing a latch actuated bottom debris release door
A gutter assembly utilizing a latch actuated bottom release door. This bottom debris release door allows built-up debris, snow, and the like to be quickly and effectively removed from the gutter such that conventional clearing and cleaning methodologies are not necessary. The latch mechanism utilized can be conveniently actuated from the ground using an extension pole or the like. Optionally, an electronic release mechanism can be provided. The gutter assembly of the present invention can be used with a variety of conventional or custom bracings, end caps, downspouts, connectors, corner pieces, etc., well known to those of ordinary skill in the art, and can be installed like any conventional gutter. All components of the gutter assembly can be extruded, molded, three-dimensional (3-D) printed, or the like.
RAIN GUTTER INSTALLATION DEVICE
A rain gutter installation device including an expandable rain gutter support and hoist member. The device is constructed to have a transverse cross-sectional area sufficiently large enough to accommodate the sizes and shapes of conventional gutters. The device can include at least one first trough and at least one second trough movable relative to the first trough. The device may expand from about 6 to about 20 feet in length, whereby a considerable length of gutter may be supported in the desired mounting orientation and the likelihood of excessive twisting of the ends of the gutter during hoisting is minimized. As a result, a single installer can install gutter lengths of up to about 60 feet without the assistance of one or more additional installers.
Roofing edge hanger for decorative lights
A roofing edge hanger for decorative lights is provided. The roofing edge hanger includes a substantially planar body adapted to lie flat against a roof, a support arm lying on a first plane that intersects a second plane at an angle, wherein the second plane is parallel to the body, wherein the support arm divides the body into a roof portion and a hook portion, wherein the support arm is attached to the body; and a plurality of hooks extending from the hook portion of the body, wherein the hooks are formed from a plurality of perforations of the body. The hanger is held in place between a roof and the shingles of the roof and provides a mounting surface and hooks for hanging up or mounting objects.
RAINWATER GUTTER
The present invention is directed to a rainwater gutter for collecting rainwater which runs off the roof of a building. The rainwater gutter is formed by connecting two or more gutter sections, such as the outer surface of the gutter is continuous with no visible connectors. The gutter sections comprise one or more keyways running along the length of the gutter section. The keyways receive an elongated keyway for connecting gutter sections end to end.
