Abstract: A rain gutter swivel support is provided. A gutter retaining portion has a proximate portion having a first portion of a first connector attached thereto. The gutter retaining portion is shaped to secure a gutter. A central portion has a proximate portion, a middle portion, and a distal portion. The central portion has a second portion of the first connector attached thereto. The first connector allows the central portion and the gutter retaining portion to rotate contrary to each other. The middle portion of the central portion has a first portion of a second connector attached thereto. An anchor portion has a holding portion and a proximate portion. A second portion of the second connector is attached to a middle portion of the proximate portion. The second connector allows the anchor portion and the central portion to rotate contrary to each other.

Abstract: The rain gutter swivel support is a revolutionary concept which, unlike other supports, permits freedom of movement for the rain gutter preventing damage or destruction from ice or snow. A simple disconnect from the end piece supporting the downspout enables the gutter to be moved to a position of storage beneath the soffit or rafter ends by a simple swivel or rotary movement without dismantling the system. It works equally well in climates free of ice and snow. It permits rain gutter installation in climates heretofore considered impractical or not feasible. The cradle of the support can be adapted to any gutter configuration.
