Means for spacing said second water permeable means from said first permeable means, wherein said spacing means comprises a mesh base andĨ. An apparatus for preventing debris from clogging drain spout, said drain spout descending from a gutter, said apparatus comprising:Ī second water permeable means for delaying said debris from reaching said first water permeable means The apparatus as recited in claim 1, wherein said first water permeable means and said second water permeable means are constructed from a mesh, so that said first water permeable means and said second water permeable means are impermeable to said debris.ħ. The apparatus as recited in claim 1, wherein said gutter has two opposing side walls having a height, said second water permeable means comprising two end walls extending approximately perpendicularly from said first water permeable means, said end walls extending to a height less than said height of said two opposing side walls.Ħ. The apparatus as recited in claim 1, wherein said second water permeable means comprises two end walls extending approximately perpendicularly from said first water permeable means.ĥ. The apparatus as recited in claim 1, wherein said second water permeable means is constructed from a mesh.Ĥ. The apparatus as recited in claim 1, wherein said first water permeable means is constructed from a mesh.ģ. Means for securing said first water permeable means and said second water permeable means to said drain spout.Ģ. An apparatus for preventing debris from clogging drain spout, said drain spout descending from a gutter, said apparatus comprising:Ī first water permeable means for preventing said debris from entering said drain spout Ī second water permeable means for delaying said debris from clogging said first water permeable means Ī third water permeable means for preventing said debris from clogging said first water permeable means, said third water permeable means positioned over said drain spout and Therefore, the base, end walls, and cap prevent debris that could clog the drain spout from collecting near the opening, thus allowing the water to continually flow within the gutter and drain spout.ġ. The base, end walls, and cap are constructed from a wire or plastic mesh and allow water and small particles to flow into the drain spout. The cap also prevents debris, falling directly from the roof, from collecting over the opening. However, the cap prevents the debris from collecting directly in the drain spout. Once the debris has reached the height of the end walls, the debris flows closer to the opening. The end walls of the guard prevent debris from collecting near the drain spout opening. The loop also extends into the drain spout, biased against the walls of the drain spout, thus securely positioning the guard with respect to the drain spout. The cap is positioned over the opening of the drain spout and is connected to the base through a loop. The base is positioned within a gutter over the drain spout. The base is generally rectangular in shape, with the two end walls extending perpendicularly from its ends. The guard includes a base, two end walls and a cap. A gutter and drain spout guard for preventing debris from the roof of a house from clogging the gutter and drain spout.
