ABSTRACT:
An improved gutter screen, and the combination of such a screen with a roof and gutter upon which it is mounted, in which the screen is of flexible, open-mesh construction, having spaced, flow-directing ribs extending in directions parallel with the slope of the roof and transverse flow-interrupting bars extending between the ribs. Together the flow-directing ribs and the flow-interrupting bars define a multiplicity of small, generally rectangular apertures, with the ribs being of a height substantially greater than that of the bars. In a preferred installation, the screen curves gradually over the trough of a gutter with the upper portion of the screen conforming to the slope of the roof and the lower edge portion of the screen assuming a more horizontal condition along its attachment to the outer edge of the gutter.
