Description
GUT ____________________ FER GUARD WITH EMBOSSMENTS
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to eavestroughs or gutters and more particularly, relates to an eavestrough cover.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The use of shields or gutters or eavestroughs is well known in the prior art and there have been many proposals for different types of shields. The purpose of the shield is essentially to permit passage of rainwater from the roof to the eavestrough while protecting the same from extraneous foreign matter such as leaves and the like.
To-date, there have been several different approaches taken. A first approach is utilizing a shield or a guard which is apertured and permits the passage of rainwater while extensively barring the passage of extraneous material. Moreover, many of these guards do not function as desired and access must still be had to the eavestrough for cleaning purposes.
It has also been proposed in the art to provide relatively complex structures wherein eavestroughs are mounted for rotatable movement such that they may be emptied at desired intervals.
There have also been proposals in the art fOr gutters and eavestroughs which have a design wherein a cover has an outer edge which curls downwardly and the water flow follows a curved portion due to surface tension and thereafter cascades into the eavestrough.
However, this concept suffers that when the volume of water becomes sufficiently large, the surface tension is insufficient to cause all the water to flow into the gutter.
A known gutter guard is disclosed in United States Patent 6,786,008, the teachings of which are hereby incorporated by reference. This gutter guard has a relatively flat planar portion with a plurality of apertures therein to permit drainage of water therethrough into the gutter or eavestrough.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
It is an object of the present invention to provide a gutter guard similar to that shown in United States Patent 6,786,008 and which gutter guard can be made of a relatively thin piece of material while having robust physical properties.
According to one aspect of the present invention, there is provided a gutter guard for an eavestrough comprising a guard central portion having a plurality of apertures formed therein, the guard central portion having first and second sides, a guard front wall extending upwardly from the first side of the guard central portion to thereby form a longitudinally extending front wall corner, a guard rear wall extending upwardly from the second side of the guard central portion to thereby form a longitudinally extending rear wall corner, and a plurality of embossments formed in at least one of the front wall corner and the rear wall corner, at least one of said embossments having a first portion formed in one of said guard front wall or said guard rear wall and a second portion formed in said guard central portion, said first portion and said second portion being contiguous.
According to a further aspect of the present invention, there is provided in combination, an eavestrough having an eavestrough rear wall, an eavestrough front wall and an eavestrough bottom wall, the walls defining an eavestrough having an opened top therebetween, the eavestrough also having a top wall portion extending inwardly from an upper marginal edge of the front wall and a downwardly extending flange from a distal end of the top wall, the front wall, the top wall and the flange defining a recess therebetween, and a gutter guard, the gutter guard comprising a guard central portion having a plurality of
