US Patent 9938722 Gutter cover

A gutter cover has a lip for attachment to a structure below the roof. An upper cover extends away from the lip at an angle between 90 and 180 degrees relative to the lip. A folded section extends towards the attachment lip at an angle between 0 and 180 degrees relative to the upper cover. A covering section extends substantially parallel with, and spaced apart from, said folded section and has a number of apertures therein configured to allow water to pass into the gutter. Exemplary embodiments may utilize a filtering mesh positioned in the space between the folded section and the covering section.
