PIPE COVERING
A pipe covering assembly covers a gap defined between an exterior surface of a pipe and an opening in a wall through which the pipe extends. The pipe covering assembly includes a substrate layer having a through-hole for receiving the pipe, a front surface and a rear surface. A mesh material layer is either attached to or contained within the substrate layer. An adhesive layer is directly applied to the rear surface of the substrate layer, wherein the adhesive layer includes an adhesive that is configured to be applied to the wall and the pipe. A plurality of concentric rings are either printed on the front surface of the substrate layer or disposed on a layer that is applied to the front surface of the substrate layer, each ring of the concentric ring corresponding to a pre-determined pipe diameter.
Multi-Use Donut for Piping Installation
A donut-shaped component is set around an end of a pipe and both are cast into a concrete slab. Removal of the donut after the concrete has cured leaves an annular recess in the concrete slab around the pipe, which remains in the concrete. Donuts used at both ends of the pipe result in two annular recesses in the concrete, one at each end of the pipe. A cover can be used on the top donut. Further piping connections are made in the annular recesses. The use of firestopping may be avoided, and water leakage through the slab may be eliminated.
Drain mast seal assembly with seal wedge(s)
An assembly is provided for an aircraft propulsion system. A first seal wedge is configured with a first wedge-shaped cross-sectional geometry when viewed in a reference plane. A first aperture extends along a first axis within the first seal wedge. A second seal wedge is configured with a second wedge-shaped cross-sectional geometry when viewed in the reference plane. A second aperture extends along a second axis within the second seal wedge. A first drain tube supports the first seal wedge and is fluidly coupled with the first aperture. A second drain tube supports the second seal wedge and is fluidly coupled with the second aperture. A manifold is configured with an outlet. The manifold supports the first drain tube and the second drain tube. The manifold fluidly couples the first drain tube and the second drain tube in parallel with the outlet.

RISER RING SYSTEM AND METHOD OF USE
A system for and a method of preventing a conduit, pipe, or other similar traversing piece of equipment, from falling through an opening, and for facilitating ready adjustment of the traversing piece of equipment during installation, maintenance, and/or repair services. A first embodiment may involve a single-component system or a multi-component system. A second embodiment may involve a multi-component system for and method of effectively increasing the diameter of a conduit or pipe to an amount greater than that of an opening, but in a way such that the conduit or pipe can be adjustably extended without need for disengaging the system or back-tracking/reversing the method. A third embodiment may involve an annular riser ring and method of use thereof, wherein the riser ring is configured to slide over a conduit or pipe and is held in place along the pipe or conduit by a tight but slidable friction fit.

Pipe floor/wall penetration bellows seal
A sealing system including a first end and a second end with flexible bellows extending therebetween. The first end includes a base plate with an inner ring having an inner diameter. The inner ring is configured to receive a pipe therethrough. The pipe has an outer diameter, which is smaller than the inner diameter of the inner ring. The bellows of the sealing system has a first length in a first position and second length in a second position. Upon axial expansion of the pipe, the bellows is configured to move from the first position to the second position. The sealing system may also comprise a mechanical protective element, such as a shroud which extends around the bellows. Movement of the bellows can be further limited with rods extending from the shroud to a surrounding substrate or a cable fixing a maximum distance between the pipe and the shroud.
