Description
- The present application claims priority to U.S. provisional patent application Ser. No. 61/392,071 filed 12 Oct. 2010, which is incorporated herein by reference.
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates to rainspouts and, more particularly, to a downspout distributor for positioning beneath a rain downspout to direct and distribute rainwater away from the foundation, minimizing erosion.
- 2. Description of the Background
- In storms and heavy downpours, large volumes of water collect in residential gutters and exit from surrounding downspouts, sometimes emerging as an extremely strong flow of rainwater. This gushing water can cause surrounding ground and landscape material to wash away, creating deep and unsightly ruts in the ground leading away from the downspouts. To solve this problem, there have been past efforts to diffuse the flow of water from downspouts and thereby prevent erosion.
- For example, U.S. Pat. No. 3,636,830 to Watts issued Jan. 25, 1972 shows a sheet metal downspout drain trough that leads to a series of convolutions and holes at the discharge end to diffuse the rainwater and allow it to leak out and soak into the ground. The patent is expired.
- U.S. Pat. No. 7,052,212 to Joyner issued May 30, 2006 shows a downspout energy dissipater splash pad with spillway that permits accumulated water in the splash pad to spillover and be discharged from the splash pad. Aggregate is contained within the splash pad for dissipating the water discharge.
- The brochure page for the AquaBarrel™ Splash Block Diffuser shows a clam-shell downspout diffuser with an internal series of ‘teeth’ that work as baffles to slow the speed of the water and distribute it over a wider area.
- United States Patent Application No. 20090003933 by Ken Anderson filed Jun. 27, 2007 shows a splash block having a trough and a diffuser arrangement for use in controlling water dispensed from a downspout of a home or building. The diffuser arrangement includes a plurality of diffusing elements that displace a high flow of water produced from a heavy downpour in a random dispensing.
- U.S. Pat. No. 2,334,779 to E. T. Luff issued Nov. 23, 1943 shows a ramped splash block with divergent guide vanes.
- U.S. Pat. No. 2,966,171 to Edward A. Kotlar issued Jan. 20, 1958 shows a downspout diverter with a slayed hose arrangement.
- U.S. Pat. No. 6,823,894 to Koller et al. issued Nov. 30, 2004 shows a downspout lateral outlet water splay apparatus that splays the water laterally from the outlet to overcome the problem of erosion of the ground as had on direct flow from a lateral spout onto the ground.
- None of the foregoing references provide a multi-piece repositionable downspout distributor having both a ramped diffuser formed as an integral molded plastic component, and a removable cover for enclosing and protecting the ramped diffuser. The specific design details of the present invention, and particularly its diffuser pattern, add to its utility and manufacturability, and provide significant advantages.
- It is, therefore, an object of the present invention to provide a relatively simple and inexpensive downspout diverter to diffuse water flowing out of the downspout and avoid erosion,
- It is another object to provide an improved downspout diverter with highly effective diffusers, a more aesthetic appearance, improved manufacturability, a stronger molded design, and eliminate the problem of debris clogging the diverter.
- In accordance with the foregoing object, the present downspout distributor is a molded splash block that diffuses rainwater pouring out of a downspout so that it does not erode soil or cause moisture damage around a foundation. The downspout distributor includes an upper chamber formed with a receptacle that couples to a downspout, a ramped chute leading downward and away from the receptacle, and a cover plate that partially covers the cute. The chute broadens at the bottom to a circular platform, and a series of diffusing vanes are spaced along the chute and on the platform to spread water runoff around a broader area. The diffusing vanes begin as sharp triangles and progress in size and angle to broad V-shaped vanes. The Downspout Distributor is positioned beneath the downspout, helps direct and distribute rainwater away from the foundation, and helps minimize erosion.
- Other objects, features, and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description of the preferred embodiments and certain modifications thereof when taken together with the accompanying drawings in which:
-
FIG. 1 is a perspective top view of thedownspout distributor 10 according to a preferred embodiment of the invention. -
FIG. 2 is an enlarged top view of thediffusor elements surface 44 of the ramp. -
FIG. 3 is a perspective side view of thedownspout distributor 10 as inFIGS. 1-2 . - The present invention is a rain downspout for directing, diffusing and distributing rainwater away from the foundation, minimizing erosion.
-
FIG. 1 is a perspective top view of thedownspout distributor 10 according to a preferred embodiment of the invention, andFIG. 3 is a perspective side view of thedownspout distributor 10 as inFIG. 1 . - With combined reference to
FIGS. 1 and 3 , thedownspout distributor 10 generally comprises a unitary moldedsplash block 12 that serves as a foundation and partial protective enclosure for adiffuser ramp 14 that diffuses rainwater pouring out of a downspout so that it does not erode soil or cause moisture damage around a foundation. -
Splash block 12 is formed with anupper chamber 16 that serves as a partially-enclosed receptacle that couples to an existing downspout via anadapter plate 18,various adapter plates 18 being upwardly configured to friction-fit any of a variety of downspout sizes and uniformly downwardly configured for tongue-in-groove seating (and preferably a friction fit) atopupper chamber 16. Thus, theadapter plates 18 are generally uniformly-dimensioned rectangular plates with downward peripheral grooves for flush seating, and varying central apertures for insertion of the downspout. Theupper chamber 16 defines a boxlike structure with open upper frame for seating theadapter plates 18. Theupper chamber 16 opens at a slit ontodiffuser ramp 14 which serves as a spillway for water ejected from the downspout. Theadapter plate 18 in combination with theupper chamber 16 substantially seals thedownspout distributor 10 from accumulating debris, the only ingress being through the vertical slit opening (obscured) onto thediffuser ramp 14. This avoids clogging and preserves aesthetics.Diffuser ramp 14 is formed with a flatinclined surface 44 sloping downward at an angle with a range of from 4-20 degrees, and preferably approximately ten degrees. Theinclined surface 44 ofdiffuser ramp 14 is bounded on both sides withvertical walls 42 which extend approximately 1-2 inches above theinclined surface 44. Stabilizingtabs 50 may extend horizontally at the bottom of thewalls 42 to provide lateral stability for theentire downspout distributor 10. - The
inclined surface 44 ofdiffuser ramp 14 continues down to and terminates at acircular platform 60. Both theinclined surface 44 ofdiffuser ramp 14 andcircular platform 60 are defined by a series of upwardly protrudingdiffuser elements Diffuser elements 46 include two to three uniformly spaced solid triangular protrusions oriented base-downward alonginclined surface 44.Diffuser elements 46 are flat-topped, protrude approximately 1-2 cm above theinclined surface 44, and extend across a majority of theinclined surface 44 ofdiffuser ramp 14, leaving approximately 1 inch on either side. -
FIG. 2 is an enlarged top view of thediffusor elements inclined surface 44 of the ramp. Water flowing down thediffuser ramp 14 encountersshallow diffuser elements 46 which do not entirely obstruct the water, but create an under-current (current of water below the surface, moving in a different direction from the surface water) that diverts it to either side. Debris follows the surface flow, and so this configuration likewise prevents clogging with unsightly debris. - Referring back to
FIGS. 1 and 3 , thecircular platform 60 begins proximate to where thewalls 42 end and flares outward past theinclined surface 44 ofdiffuser ramp 14, thereby providing an expanded lateral spillway at the bottom of thediffuser ramp 14. Thecircular platform 60 likewise containsdiffuser elements 62, albeit different thanelements 46.Diffuser elements 62 include a tighter succession of five to seven uniformly spaced V-shaped vanes oriented V-downward.Diffuser elements 62 are likewise shallow and flat-topped, protruding approximately 1-2 cm above theinclined surface 44, initially extending across a majority of the inclinedcircular platform 60, leaving approximately 1 inch on either side. Thedownward-most diffuser elements 62 extend all the way across thecircular platform 60. The rush of water flowing down thediffuser ramp 14 encounters diffuserelements 46 which diffuse it and slow its speed, resulting in a wider slower rush at thecircular platform 60. The tighter succession of V-shapeddiffuser elements 62 oncircular platform 60 act more aggressively against this slowed flow and fan the water outward in a uniform circular pattern at the termination of thecircular platform 60. This particular configuration and progression ofdiffuser elements - The net result is a
downspout distributor 10 that can be readily positioned beneath most any downspout, and which promotes a minimally-invasive distribution of rainwater away from the house foundation, thereby minimizing erosion. - In view of the foregoing, it will be apparent that the above-described
- Having now fully set forth the preferred embodiment and certain modifications of the concept underlying the present invention, various other embodiments as well as certain variations and modifications of the embodiments herein shown and described will obviously occur to those skilled in the art upon becoming familiar with said underlying concept. It is to be understood, therefore, that the invention may be practiced otherwise than as specifically set forth in the appended claims.
