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.

or Wall Hole Closing Device A roof or wall hole closing device 1 comprises an expanding part 3 which, in its contracted condition, is passed through the hole from one side. The expanded part 3, when expanded, closes the hole from one side. A rod 5 passes into the expanding part 3. The expanding part 3 is expanded by the user pulling the rod 5 through the hole. A lower seal engages against a second side of the hole to prevent movement of the expanding part 3 from its closing position. The device when used in a roof can be installed from below, which avoids the dangers of the user needing to go up onto the roof.

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.

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.

Devices and methods for removing material from a slanted roof. The devices include motorized unbalanced rotors in a mounting frame adapted to mounting to roof structural features. The methods include mounting the devices to roof structures and actuating the motor, generating vibrations that are propagated to the roof surface to disengage undesirable debris, such as snow.

An apparatus includes rigid tubing and a tubular nozzle. The tubular nozzle is attached to the rigid tubing and includes a proximal nozzle portion, a distal nozzle portion, and a guide-shoe. The proximal nozzle portion defines a first proximal nozzle sub-portion merging with a second proximal nozzle sub-portion at a first angle. The distal nozzle portion is removably attached to the proximal nozzle portion and defines a first distal nozzle sub-portion merging with a second distal nozzle sub-portion at a second angle. The guide-shoe projects outwardly from an exterior sidewall of the distal nozzle portion. In use, high-velocity air is propelled through the tubular nozzle to remove debris from the gutter. The guide-shoe allows the tubular nozzle to easily bypass hangers that are located in the gutter and to lock the tubular nozzle in the gutter so that it does not unintentionally depart the gutter.

A roofing debris collection apparatus having one or more gutter liners constructed to fit in an interior of a gutter to collect roofing debris; one or more debris chute drapes; and one or more drape support poles to maintain the debris chute drapes in a vertical angled orientation adjacent the gutter to guide roofing debris from a roof to the ground. Roofing debris accumulates in the gutter liners or falls off the roof on to the debris chute drapes and slides from the debris chute drapes onto the ground or onto a debris collecting ground tarp. The roofing debris is collected and removed by collecting the gutter liners from the gutter and gathering the debris collecting ground tarp from the ground. The roofing debris collection apparatus allows for rapid collection and removal of roofing debris and protects the sides of a building from any damage that might be caused by the collection of roofing debris.

A roof snow shovel device and method of use are disclosed. The device may include an elongated protective component which may be attached to a shovel head or may be configured to receive at least part of an edge of a shovel head. The device may include at least one protective end unit, which may be at least partially rounded. The protective end component may at least partially extend below the lowest surface of the elongated protective component relative to the shovel head or behind the shovel head. The protective end components and/or the elongated protective component may be permanently attached to the shovel head, may be removable connected to it, or may be integral features of the shovel head. The elongated protective component may be configured for or attached to a range of sizes and shapes of shovel heads.

A pivotable rake assembly for raking a roof without using a ladder includes a handle is gripped for raking. A head is pivotally coupled to the handle such that the head is positionable at a selected angle with respect to the handle. A rake is pivotally coupled to the head such that the rake is positioned at the selected angle with respect to the handle. In this way the rake can engage a roof of a building when a user is standing on ground. The rake has a plurality of tines to rake debris from the roof top.
