Abstract: A gutter screen includes an elongated body configured to engage a portion of a gutter. The body defines a front side and a rear side and includes a rear gutter engaging member configured to engage a rear wall of the gutter and a front gutter engaging member configured to engage a front wall of the gutter. A plurality of perforated sections is disposed between the rear and front gutter engaging members. Each perforated section slopes downwardly from a rear end thereof to a front end thereof. A plurality of lipped portions connects the perforated sections. Each lipped portion attaches a front side of one perforated section to a rear side of another perforated section such that each front side is offset below the rear side connected thereto by the lipped portion.

Abstract: Gutter liner apparatus having a perforated upper platform surface that extends the width of the gutter and is supported by two sidewalls that extend down from the front and back edges of the upper platform so that the platform is situated in the lower half of the gutter upon installation therein. The perforations in the upper platform surface exclude leaf type debris from blocking the drainage flow of the gutter. The sidewalls can vary from being perpendicular to the upper platform to being flared outwardly away from an axis perpendicular to the upper platform to cause them to bias against the inner surfaces of the gutter. Other geometries provide additional advantages under selected circumstances. Perforations can be only on the upper platform surface or also on the sidewalls.
