Abstract

An eavestrough cover which has a central portion formed of a woven material and a front longitudinally extending portion and a rear longitudinally extending portion, the woven material being embossed in a generally transverse direction so as to improve the rigidity of the woven material.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
I claim: 
     
         1 . An eavestrough cover comprising:
 a front longitudinally extending portion;   a rear longitudinally extending portion;   a central portion extending between and secured to both of said front longitudinally extending portion and said rear longitudinally extending portion, said central portion being formed of a woven material; and   said woven material being embossed in a generally transverse direction so as to improve the rigidity of said woven material.   
     
     
         2 . The eavestrough cover of  claim 1  wherein said woven material is formed of a metallic material. 
     
     
         3 . The eavestrough cover of  claim 2  wherein said metallic material is selected from an aluminum material and stainless steel material. 
     
     
         4 . The eavestrough cover of  claim 3  wherein said woven material is embossed in a transverse direction extending between said front longitudinally extending portion and said rear longitudinally extending portion. 
     
     
         5 . The eavestrough cover of  claim 4  wherein said woven material is embossed to form upwardly extending ridges. 
     
     
         6 . The eavestrough cover of  claim 1  wherein said front longitudinally extending portion and said rear longitudinally extending portion are metallic strips. 
     
     
         7 . The eavestrough cover of  claim 6  wherein said woven material is crimped between said metallic strips. 
     
     
         8 . The eavestrough cover of  claim 7  wherein said woven material is crimped adjacent said front longitudinally extending portion to form an upwardly extending and longitudinally extending ridge. 
     
     
         9 . The eavestrough cover of  claim 8  wherein said front longitudinally extending portion forms an upwardly extending wall adjacent said woven to help prevent water overflow. 
     
     
         10 . The eavestrough cover of  claim 1  wherein said rear longitudinally extending portion includes a substantially planar portion designed to tit underneath roof tiles. 
     
     
         11 . The eavestrough cover of  claim 10  wherein said rear longitudinally extending portion has a diagonally and upwardly extending segment proximate said woven material. 
     
     
         12 . The eavestrough cover of  claim 8  wherein said front longitudinally extending portion has a substantially horizontally extending upper segment and a substantially horizontally extending lower segment, said woven material being retained therebetween, a terminating segment extending from said substantially horizontal lower segment, said terminating segment extending diagonally downwardly. 
     
     
         13 . In combination, an eavestrough cover comprising:
 a front longitudinally extending portion;   a rear longitudinally extending portion;   a central portion extending between and secured to both of said front longitudinally extending portion and said rear longitudinally extending portion, said central portion being formed of a woven material;   said woven material being embossed in a generally transverse direction so as to improve the rigidity of said woven material; and   an eavestrough, said eavestrough having a rear wall, a bottom wall, a front wall, a vertical segment formed at an upper portion of said front wall, a top wall and a downwardly extending diagonal segment.
