MODULAR ADJUSTABLE LINEAR SHOWER DRAIN SYSTEM
20230085447 · 2023-03-16 ·

Described are embodiments of a modular adjustable linear shower drain system. The drain system is customizable in overall length by cutting portions of the drain system while on-site and prior to assembly. The individual components of the system are made to an oversized, or standard, length and then cut to a desired installation size. Once cut on-site, the components are fit together forming the modular adjustable linear shower drain system. The drain system also includes a height-adjustable shower grill that can be set to match a surrounding tiled area height and angle. The shower grill height is set by adjusting screws disposed in the shower grill and which are in contact with portions of the drain system.

A method for interconnecting floor drains includes attaching a first elbow fitting to an existing floor drain through an existing floor. A second elbow fitting is attached to a new floor drain that is to extend through a new floor overlying the existing floor. An extension pipe extends between the spaced first and second elbow fittings to create a fluid pathway between the new floor drain and the existing floor drain.

TELESCOPING ADJUSTABLE DRAIN
20230071880 · 2023-03-09 ·

An adjustable drain having catch basin defining: a pan with a pan seating portion along a pan perimeter surface; and a pan base that slopes downwardly and inwardly from the pan seating portion to a pan aperture for water flowthrough, an inner tube that is integral with the pan aperture having an inner tube peripheral wall that extends into an underside of the catch basin; and a pan lip extending upwardly from the pan perimeter surface to position the cover against the pan, the pan lip and inner tube are unitary with the pan to form a leakproof transition; an outer tube disposed below the pan base, the outer tube having an outer tube top end and an outer tube peripheral wall extending downwardly from the outer tube top end to an outer tube bottom end, wherein the inner and outer tubes are telescoping tubes.

Tile floor drain
11473287 · 2022-10-18 ·

A tile drain and method of installing a tile drain is provided. The tile drain includes a drain body and a drain cover. The drain body defines a top opening, top weep apertures, and bottom weep apertures. The top opening receives the drain cover and serves as the primary drain for the tile drain. The top weep apertures are positioned below a top layer, such as a tile layer, of the base so as to receive fluid positioned between the top layer and a top waterproofing layer of the base. The sub weep apertures are positioned below the top waterproofing layer of the base so as to receive fluid positioned between the top waterproofing layer and a bottom waterproofing layer of the base. The drain body is encapsulated within the base, but the drain cover is adjustable relative to, and removable from, the drain body.

Cryogenic trench/trough apparatus and method

A method of installing a trough or trench for containing a cryogenic spill, includes the step of constructing multiple precast concrete sections at a first location, each section having a bottom wall and spaced apart side walls connected to and extending up from the bottom wall. Each section has end portions that enable connection to another concrete section. The method includes (at the first location), preparing multiple panels of polymeric concrete material by filling one or more molds with a slurry or liquid polymeric concrete material and after time allowing the material to cure and harden. At the first location, one or more of the panels is adhered to the bottom wall and side walls of each concrete section using an adhesive. After adhering of the panels to the concrete sections, the concrete sections are transported from the first location to a second location that is remote from the first location. At the second location, the concrete sections are connected together using connections that join one end portion of a concrete section to and end portion of another concrete section. In one embodiment, the trough or trench is placed next to a pipe rack having cryogen containing flow lines. A slab and riser arrangement preferably channel any spill to the trough or trench.
