Abstract
A motorized downspout displacement device including a main housing having an internal fluid passage extending from a first fixed adapter housing to a second displaceable adapter housing with the first fixed adapter housing couplable to a fixed-vertical downspout and the second displaceable adapter housing couplable to a downspout extension, a weather-resistant electric motor moving the second displaceable adapter housing between an extended in-use condition and an out-of-the-way condition, a central processing unit connected to and controlling the operation of the electric motor, a power supply attached to the electric motor, and a control module connected to the central processing unit, the control module transmitting user instructions to the central processing unit.
Claims8
A motorized downspout displacement device comprising:
- a weather-resistant electric motor having a first motor housing having a joint arm and a second motor housing having a joint arm, said first motor housing attached to a fixed vertical downspout proximal to an end of said fixed vertical downspout and said second motor housing attached to a downspout extension proximal to an end of said downspout extension, said joint arm of said first motor housing connected to said joint arm of said second motor housing to enable said electric motor to move said downspout extension between an extended in-use condition that provides an internal fluid passage from the fixed vertical downspout to the downspout extension and an out-of-the-way condition;
- a central processing unit connected to and controlling the operation of said electric motor;
- a power supply attached to said electric motor;
- and
- a control module connected to said central processing unit, said control module transmitting user instructions to said central processing unit.
