VACUUM TOOLS
A vacuum tool is configured to be removably coupled to a hose or wand of a vacuum. The vacuum tool comprises a first portion, a second portion, a flexible portion and a mechanical joint. The first portion and the second portion are connected by the flexible portion and coupled by the mechanical joint, so these portions are in fluid communication from various angles. And the mechanical joint comprises a detent and multiple recesses coupled to the detent. As a result, a user can use the vacuum tool in various situations more conveniently by bending the mechanical joint.
Blower
A blower reduces debris blown toward an operator when air is jetted from a distal end of a blower pipe. A blower includes a blower body and a blower pipe. The blower body includes an impeller drivable to rotate by a prime mover, and a casing accommodating the impeller. The casing includes an air inlet and an air outlet. The blower pipe includes a basal end coupled to the air outlet, a distal end from which air ejected through the air outlet is jetted, and a peripheral wall having one or more openings.
Universal gutter guard cleaning brush
A brush with bristles attached to multiple sides is designed to clean any gutter guard type that is manufactured today, including reverse curve type gutter guards. The brush has a main body of reverse-oriented bristles and accommodates an extension pole on the “reverse” side. When placed on top of the gutter guard, the brush can be pushed/pulled back and forth using the pole to dislodge any unwanted debris attached to the gutter guard's working surface. The use of the pole removes the need for a person to be on the roof when attempting to clean the gutter and/or gutter guard. With multiple bristle orientations, the brush cart be used for other outdoor cleaning uses, such as house fixtures, structures, windows and so forth.
APPARATUS FOR CLEANING GUTTERS AND METHODS OF USE
A tool for cleaning gutters includes a specialized nozzle that may be attached to a leaf blower via a set of rigid tubing. The nozzle transitions from a tubular shape into a mouth-like opening with a first projection in opposed, spaced relation to a second projection. The tool is particularly well suited to removing debris from gutters with the nozzle in contact with a gutter and made to expel high-velocity air.
GUTTER CLEANERS AND METHODS ASSOCIATED THEREWITH
A gutter cleaner comprising: a fan assembly configured to generate airflow to blow debris from a gutter; a cage at least partially disposed around the fan assembly and configured to prevent ingress of clogging debris into the fan assembly; and at least one wheel configured to roll along the gutter and at least partially support the gutter cleaner, wherein the at least one wheel is non-powered, and wherein the gutter cleaner is self-aligning on the gutter.

Fluid Control Device and Associated Methods
Embodiments of the present invention are related to a fluid control device for cleaning elevated channels including a top, a bottom, a first side, a second side, and a pair of angled exterior upper surfaces. The top includes a top aperture structured to receive tubing therein and the first side and second side include a spout respectively. The fluid control device is structured to receive fluid into the device top and direct that fluid out the first side and second side at downward side angles.
GUTTER CLEANERS AND METHODS ASSOCIATED THEREWITH
A gutter cleaner comprising: a fan assembly; a guide configured to at least partially support the fan assembly on a gutter, wherein the guide comprises a skid configured to slide along the gutter; a handle coupled to the fan assembly at a location adjacent to a first axial end of the handle; and a battery port disposed at a location adjacent to a second axial end of the handle, the second axial end of the handle being opposite the first axial end of the handle, wherein the gutter cleaner is supportable via the handle by an operator located at an elevation below the gutter, and wherein the gutter cleaner has an approximately neutral operational buoyancy.
CLEANING DIFFICULT TO REACH STRUCTURES USING DRONES
A drone system includes a drone aircraft connected to an air duct that terminates in a nozzle that emits a jet of air with a blowing force from the blower nozzle, such as for cleaning tall and hard to reach surfaces of structures and buildings or to otherwise blow objects, debris, substances and floating materials.
