Gutter cleaning system

Abstract

A gutter cleaning system comprises an adapter coupling, a straight extension, and a gooseneck extension. The straight extension has an intake end for attachment to the adapter coupling, and an output end for attachment to the gooseneck extension. The gooseneck extension has an intake end for attachment to the straight extension, and a nozzle end. Air from an air output orifice on a power blower is directed in sequence through the adapter coupling, the straight extension, and the gooseneck extension to blow leaves and debris from gutters.

         9 . The gutter cleaning system of  claim 1 , further comprising a shoulder harness assembly attached to a handle of the power blower.  
     
     
         10 . The gutter cleaning system of  claim 9 , wherein the shoulder harness assembly comprises: 
 a cuff attached around the handle of the power blower;    a strap attached to the cuff; and    a pad attached to the strap.    
     
     
         11 . A gutter cleaning system comprising: 
 an adapter coupling, wherein the adapter coupling comprises a straight, substantially tubular body with a blower coupling end and an attachment end, and wherein the blower coupling end couples with an air output orifice on a power blower, and the attachment end includes a fitting for connecting with other gutter cleaning system attachments;    a flexible extension, wherein the flexible extension includes an intake end and an output end, wherein the intake end of the flexible extension is connected to the attachment end of the adapter coupling;    a straight extension having an intake end and an output end, wherein the intake end of the straight extension is connected to the output end of the flexible extension; and    a gooseneck extension having an intake end and a nozzle end, wherein the intake end of the gooseneck extension is connected to the output end of the straight extension tube, whereby air from the air output orifice on the power blower is directed in sequence through the adapter coupling, the flexible extension, the straight extension, and the gooseneck extension.    
     
     
         12 . The gutter cleaning system of  claim 11 , wherein the attachment end of the adapter coupling, the output end of the flexible extension, and the output end of the straight extension comprise a female threaded fitting.  
     
     
         13 . The gutter cleaning system of  claim 12 , wherein the intake end of the flexible extension, the intake end of the straight extension, and the intake end of the gooseneck extension comprise a male threaded fitting.  
     
     
         14 . The gutter cleaning system of  claim 13 , wherein the adapter coupling, the flexible extension, the straight extension, and the gooseneck extension are screwed together by engaging their threaded fittings.  
     
     
         15 . A gutter cleaning system comprising: 
 an adapter coupling, wherein the adapter coupling comprises a substantially tubular body with a blower coupling end and an attachment end, and wherein the blower coupling end couples with an air output orifice on a power blower, and the attachment end includes a fitting for connecting with other gutter cleaning system attachments;    a plurality of straight extensions, each having an intake end and an output end, wherein the intake end of one of the straight extensions is connected to the attachment end of the adapter coupling, and wherein the plurality of straight extensions may be used singly or in any combination; and    a gooseneck extension having an intake end and a nozzle end, wherein the intake end of the gooseneck extension is connected to the output end of the last straight extension tube, whereby air from the air output orifice on the power blower is directed in sequence through the adapter coupling, the plurality of straight extensions, and the gooseneck extension.
