Definitions

  • This invention relates to roof gutters of the type which extend around roofs of buildings such as residential dwellings and commercial buildings. More particularly, the invention is concerned with gutters which limit the ingress of leaves and other debris into the gutter channel.
  • Background to the invention In many areas, particularly those areas where there is a significant amount of vegetation and foliage, leaves, twigs, and other vegetable matter, debris will tend to clog the gutters of buildings. Typically leaves and the like will fall from trees onto the roof of a building, and this vegetable matter will either be blown into the gutters or will wash into the gutters during a rain storm. Once the vegetable matter is in the gutter it will relatively rapidly clog either the downpipe or the gutters themselves. Clogged gutters are problematic for many reasons.
  • a gutter system for channelling rainwater flowing into a downpipe
  • the gutter system comprising: a trough extending the length of the gutter system, said trough being adapted to be mounted to a building below and generally parallel to the roofline of the building, the trough being adapted to be connected to at least one downpipe so that water collecting in the trough can flow into and down the downpipe; a debris exclusion panel which extends the length of and overlies said trough, said debris exclusion panel having a first longitudinal edge adapted to be positioned underneath the roofline of the building, and a second longitudinal edge opposite the first longitudinal edge and which is adjacent to, or extends beyond an edge of the trough remote from the building, the debris exclusion panel being inclined to the horizontal such that the first longitudinal edge is higher than the second longitudinal edge; and a transition section integrally formed with the second longitudinal edge and underlying the debris exclusion panel, the transition section being configured so as to lead water flowing down the debris exclusion panel and around the second longitudinal edge and down towards the base
  • the gutter system is preferably adapted to be supported on brackets which in turn are mounted to the rafters or facia board of the building.
  • the gutter system may clip into said brackets.
  • the first edge of the debris exclusion panel may be upturned to provide a generally vertical lip for preventing water being blown up the panel behind the gutter.
  • the lip may be adapted to be engaged by a support bracket for holding the gutter system in position.
  • the lip may have a down turned or folded over section defining a vertically extending rib, said rib having upper and lower edges with which a bracket may engage to operatively hold the upper portion of the gutter system in position.
  • the second edge of the debris exclusion panel may be in the form of a rounded nib, leading to said transition section.
  • the nib preferably extends beyond the outer edge of the trough to thereby ensure debris which falls off the edge of the debris exclusion panel does not drop into the trough.
  • the nib is preferably of arcuate shape in cross section, having a radius of between about 1 mm and 10 mm. The preferred radius of the nib is between about 3 mm and 5 mm.
  • the transition section is preferably inclined to the horizontal, leading downwardly from the nib to the trough.
  • the transition section may be of generally arcuate or curved configuration such that adjacent the nib it is less steeply inclined horizontal, and adjacent the trough it is more steeply inclined, possibly, substantially vertical.
  • the transition section preferably does not significantly restrict the flow capacity of the trough. Since the system relies on the surface tension of the water to keep the water in contact with the gutter system as it travels from the debris exclusion panel into the trough, the gutter system is preferably formed from a material which enhances the surface tension between the water and the system. The material should be oil free.

  • Figure 15 shows
  • a gutter system 10 for channelling water flowing off a roof 12 of a building to a downpipe (not shown) is fitted just below the roofline 14 of the roof.
  • the gutter system 10 is shown mounted to a facia board 16 by means of a bracket 18.
  • the gutter system itself comprises three components namely a debris exclusion panel 20, a transition section 22 channel or trough section 24.
  • the debris exclusion panel 20 is inclined downwardly in a direction away from the roof 12, the debris exclusion panel 20 extending between a first edge 26 which is adjacent the facia board 16, and a second edge 28 which extends beyond the outer edge 30 of the trough section 24.
  • the debris exclusion panel 20 and the transition section 22 merge at a rounded nib 32 which forms a smooth flow surface between the debris exclusion panel 20 and the transition section 22.
  • the shape of the nib 32 is defined so that water will flow down the debris exclusion panel 20, around the nib 32 and, due to surface tension between the gutter system 10 and the water, continue to adhere to the transition section 22 such that the water is carried down into the trough section 24 without dripping.
  • transition section 22 and the nib 32 will be shaped and configured to ensure the water flowing into the trough section 24 will remain in contact, enabling a relatively soundless passage of water into the trough section 24.
  • Prior art arrangements in which water drips into the trough section 24 have been found to be unacceptable, particularly in conditions of light precipitation, since the continuous dripping sound has been found to be annoying, particularly by persons attempting to sleep.
  • a bracket 18, as shown in Figures 2 and 3, is used to support the gutter system 10 in position, the bracket comprising a generally vertical section 34 which in use will be mounted to a rafter, facia board or the like, a generally horizontal section 36 which provides support for the trough section 24 of the gutter system 10, and a vertically extending lip 38 which holds the gutter system 10 in position.
  • a retaining lip 40 which engages the upper edge 26 of the debris exclusion panel 20 and retains the gutter system 10 in position.
  • the gutter system 10 is preferably formed of a resiliently flexible material and in its rest condition, indicated by dotted lines 42, the height of the gutter system 10 will be greater than the distance between the horizontal section 36 and the retaining lip 40 of the bracket
  • the debris exclusion panel 20 will be pushed downwardly, in the direction of arrow 44 until such time as the edge 26 clips underneath the retaining lip 40 whereafter the gutter system 10 will be securely held or clipped in position. It is envisaged that for most applications the aforementioned simple clip arrangement provided by the bracket 18 will be sufficient to hold the gutter system 10 in position and the residual resilience of the material from which the gutter system is made will ensure that the gutter system 10 does not inadvertently become dislodged in conditions of high wind or other dislodging forces. However, for more secure arrangements, a positive locking system can be employed, as shown in Figures 4 to 8 of the drawings.
  • the gutter system 10 preferably has a downwardly extending lip or strip 46 integrally formed along the edge 26 of the panel 20, the lip 46 serving not only to strengthen the gutter system at the edge 26, but also to serve as an attachment point for the brackets shown in Figures 4 to 8.
  • the lip 46 has a lower edge 48 with which the bracket can be engaged to positively lock the gutter system 10 to the bracket, as described below.
  • the bracket 18" has a pair of upwardly extending fingers 50 which engage with the lip 46 to prevent further downward movement of the lip 46.
  • the bracket 18' has a tab 52 on the upper end thereof which is connected to the remainder of the bracket 18 ⁇ along a line of weakness 54 about which the tab 52 can be folded over when the gutter system 10 is in position as indicated clearly in Figure 6 of the drawings, to hold the edge 26 and lip 46 captively in conjunction with the fingers 50.
  • the tab 52 will need to be bent upwardly out of engagement with the edge 26 to allow the panel 20 to be lifted upwardly and thereby allow the lower edge 48 to clear the fingers 50. It will be appreciated that with the edge 26 captively held in this way, it will not be possible to easily disengage the gutter system 10 from the bracket 18 ⁇
  • the arrangement shown in Figures 7 to 9 is somewhat similar to that shown in
  • bracket 18" is provided with a ledge 60 against which the edge 48 will abut when a gutter system 10 is properly located in position.
  • the bracket 18" is provided with a retaining lip 40, similar to that shown in Figure 3 of the drawings, and by pressing the nib 32 of the gutter system 10 in the direction shown by arrow 62 in Figure 8 the lip 46 can be pressed into the gap between the ledge 60 and the retaining lip 40 to thereby lock the gutter system 10 in position with the bracket 18", as shown in Figure 8 of the drawings.
  • Figure 10 of the drawings shows the manner in which an internal comer channel section may be fabricated using the gutter system 10 of the invention. It will be noted that an internal triangular web 64 of material will need to be fitted between two longitudinally extending gutter sections 66 and 68 and the components 64, 66 and 68 joined together, using known welding or similar connection techniques, in order to fabricate the comer piece. It is envisaged that a comer piece of a type shown in Figure 9 will be fabricated off site and will be supplied separately as a standard component.
  • an outside comer gutter arrangement is shown for the gutter system 10 of the present invention.
  • An outside comer is relatively easy to fabricate and two gutter sections, 70 and 72, will simply meet at a point of intersection 74, and joined together using standard welding or like techniques well known in the art. The join along line 74 can easily be done on site by those skilled in the art, although is more likely to be fabricated off-site.
  • the gutter system shown in Figure 12 of the drawings has a slight modification to the nib region 76. As shown, the nib region 76 has been corrugated to break up the smooth surface of the debris extrusion panel 78.
  • the corrugations 80 will be aligned parallel with the direction of water flow down the panel 78 so that water flowing down the debris extrusion panel 78 will follow the line of the corrugations 80 adhering to the surface as it passes around the nib 78, and thereafter travel into the trough section 24.
  • small leaves, particularly leaves which soften as they become water logged, and which might otherwise be transported around the nib 76 and into the trough section 24, will, because of the corrugated configuration of the nib 76 not be carried around the nib 76 and will tend to fall off the gutter system 10 as they reach the nib 76.
  • the corrugated nib 76 arrangement might be used in situations where particularly soft leaves, flowers or blossoms, or the like, might fall onto roofs.
  • FIG. 13 of the drawings shows an embodiment of a gutter system 10' according to the present invention, whereby the system is a two part gutter system.
  • the gutter system 10 ⁇ comprises a trough section 84 which is formed as a unitary construction and a second section 86 which comprises the debris exclusion panel 88 and the transition section 90.
  • the panel 88 and transition section 90 form the nib 92, and the transition section 90 leads to the base 94 of the trough section 84, as shown, so as to carry water flowing around the nib 92 all the way to the base of the trough section 84 without causing dripping.
  • the section 86 comprising the debris exclusion panel 88 and the transition section 90 might be fitted to existing gutters.
  • the bracket 96 in this embodiment is arranged to hold both the first section 84 and the second section 86, and accordingly includes a further retaining clip 98 for holding the upper edge 100 of the trough section 84.
  • FIG. 14 of the drawings The embodiment of a gutter system 10" shown in Figure 14 of the drawings is similar to that shown in previous embodiments except that the trough section 104 is of rounded or arcuate shape in cross-section and the bracket 106 has a correspondingly shaped arcuate base 108 for holding and supporting the rounded trough section 104. In other respects the bracket 106 is the same as that shown in Figure 3 of the drawings.
  • Figure 15 shows a side view of an alternative arrangement of gutter system 110-. It will be noted that the gutter is provided with a nib 111 which instead of being rounded is defined by a series of straight sections 112 joined together at small radius bends 114, bent to obtuse angles as shown.
  • This step-wise form of the overall bend will, it is envisaged, facilitate the dislodgement of solids from the flow of water around the nib, thereby ensuring less particulate material passes into the trough of the gutter.
  • the gutter system of the invention might conveniently be formed on site using conventional folding machines which will fold the gutter section into its S or Z configuration from a long length of sheet metal. The sheet metal will be rolled into the S or Z configuration in made to measure lengths, as required for the particular building to which the gutter system is to be fitted.
  • An alternative is to form the gutter system from a plastic material, typically using an extrusion process.
  • the surface of the debris exclusion panel might, for example, be dimpled, rippled or otherwise textured to further encourage solid particles carried by rain water off the roof not to be carried around the nib of the system.
  • the texturing of the surface might only be done at or adjacent the nib.
  • other forms of bracket arrangements which allow for either more permanent mounting arrangements, or more easily engaging arrangements might be possible.
  • This invention extends to a combination of gutter system and mounting bracket as shown in the various embodiments described herein. It is also to be understood that the various components may have slightly different configurations to those described herein. The angles of inclination of the debris containment panel, and the transition section, might vary from that described herein.
  • the radius of curvature of the nib might vary and could well vary where the angles of the components change to facilitate either a steeper or a flatter roof of a building.
  • the extent to which the nib projects beyond the outer edge of the trough section might also vary from that described or shown herein.
