AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a gutter debris preclusion device with improved fastening mechanisms for a more effective and cost-efficient installation. The device prevents debris from entering the gutter, reducing damage and maintenance costs. The non-metal fasteners used in the invention reduce corrosion and labor requirements for installation. The device also has a longer lifespan and better corrosion resistance. The invention provides a quick and easy method for installing the device on a gutter.

Problems solved by technology

These gutter guards would move around on the gutter, or fall off of the gutter, making them less likely to work appropriately.
These screw fasteners would keep the gutter guard effectively on the gutter, however, they would cause a very labor intensive installation, and would increase corrosion, by placing the two metal products in direct contact with each other.

Embodiment Construction

[0032]Referring to the drawings, wherein like reference numerals represent like parts throughout the various drawing figures, FIGS. 1-4 display a debris preclusion device or gutter guard 10 made in accordance with the present invention. FIG. 1 displays a partial top perspective view of the gutter guard 10. The device 10 is shown in use on a gutter G attached to a building B.

[0033]FIG. 2 displays a partial bottom perspective view of the gutter guard 10. The gutter guard 10 includes a main body 20 and a fastener member 50.

[0034]As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, a portion of the member 50 is operably configured to be disposed between a portion of the main body 20 and the gutter when the gutter guard is in use. More particularly when the gutter guard is in use, a portion of the member 50 is disposed between the main body 20 and a front lip 2 of the gutter G. FIG. 4 shows the gutter guard 10 in a state prior to the attachment of the member 50 to the main body 20 and prior to the gutter guard 10...

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application is a nonprovisional application of U.S. Provisional Application No. 61 / 568,539 filed on Dec. 8, 2011, and this application claims priority to that application and that application is incorporated in its entirety herein by reference.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]1. Field of Invention[0003]This invention relates to barriers for rain gutters and similar structures for keeping leaves and other debris out of the rain gutters. More particularly, this invention relates to rain gutter debris preclusion devices, which utilize a screen to allow water to pass into the gutter, but preclude debris from passing through the screen and into the gutter.[0004]2. Description of Related Art[0005]Prior gutter debris preclusion devices have been effective in preventing debris from passing through the screen and entering the gutter. Examples of such devices include and not limited to the devices disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 7,310,912, (hereinaf...
