Patent number: 8689492Abstract: A roof-mounted actuator of a gutter dumping assembly is actuatable to rotate a gutter from an initial, upright position to a downwardly-facing dumped position in order to dump debris from the gutter. The actuator is coupled to the gutter support by a flexible structure so that, after the actuator positively engages a support for the gutter and forces it to an over-center position, the gutter falls to a dumped position under only the force of gravity.Type: GrantFiled: November 20, 2012Date of Patent: April 8, 2014Assignee: RRTK Enterprise, Inc.Inventors: Ronald J. Desotell, Gerald D. Leisgang, William D. Leisgang

Patent number: 8141302Abstract: A gutter dumping assembly is actuatable to rotate a gutter from an initial, upright position to a downwardly-facing dumped position in order to dump debris from the gutter. The actuator is coupled to the gutter support by a flexible structure so that, after the actuator positively forces the gutter to an over-center position, the gutter falls to a dumped position under only the force of gravity. The gutter is supported by a number of spaced brackets, each of which includes an upper leg that is inclined downwardly and forwardly from the rear of the bracket so as to be hidden from view and to channel rainwater falling into the bracket into the gutter as opposed to against the building or outside of the gutter.Type: GrantFiled: April 2, 2009Date of Patent: March 27, 2012Assignee: RRTK Enterprises, Inc.Inventors: Ronald J.
