Adjustable floor drain and method of installation
A drain assembly comprises a shroud, a shank, and a frame. The drain assembly may further comprise a shim with an angled top surface. The frame may have an angled bottom surface. A rotational orientation of the angled top surface of the shim relative to the shank and a rotational orientation of the angled bottom surface of the frame relative to the shank may be independently adjustable, thereby allowing for the top surface of the frame to be both angularly and rotationally adjusted relative to a central axis of the drain assembly independent of the positional height of the shank. The drain assembly may further comprise a cover having bendable tabs. The bendable tabs may be disposed around a periphery of the cover and may be configured to contact an angled inner surface of an upper bowl of the shroud, such that the bendable tabs bend around the frame, thereby locking the cover onto the frame.
STORM WATER AND TRAFFIC COLLECTOR BOX CULVERT
Disclosed in the present application is a system for a storm water and traffic collector box culvert. The system may comprise a plurality of reinforced slabs with an upper slab that may be configured as a reinforced surface to collect storm water runoff. The plurality of slabs may be connected by a plurality of attachment mechanisms. Accordingly, the present system is directed to an environmentally friendly culvert design that can minimize the magnitude of earthworks required by traditional drainage systems while also providing increased drainage capabilities. The Environmentally friendly design will contribute to the efficiency and effectiveness of the American Urban Infrastructure in reducing the drainage and traffic congestions.
Drain Cover with Mesh Retaining Channel
A drain cover assembly that retains mesh on its upper surface via a channel-fastening system that is integrated into the drain cover's perimeter zone. The mesh is retained on the upper surface of the drain cover in a robust and permanent fashion. The drain cover can be configured to provide structural rigidity for supporting a load applied to its upper surface. The drain cover can be adapted to allow for its use in existing or newly constructed drainage system installations. The meshed upper surface of the drain cover can be configured to be flat or raised in profile. The meshed upper surface of the drain cover prevents mosquito habitation and breeding within the associated drainage system and prevents fine debris particles from clogging the drainage system's flow conduit.
Through-floor combination tub and surface drain
A through-floor combination tub and surface drain includes an exterior tube having a top end and a bottom end. The bottom end of the exterior tube is to connect to a sewer pipe. The top end of the exterior tube has one or more openings to provide a floor drain. The drain also includes an interior tube situated within the exterior tube. The interior tube has a top end to receive a drain pipe and a bottom end that opens into a cavity within the exterior tube that extends from the top end of the exterior tube to the bottom end of the exterior tube. The drain further includes a flange, extending outward radially from the exterior tube, to connect to a substrate of a floor.
Inlet filter and method of use
An inlet filter and method of use are disclosed. In one aspect, the inlet filter comprises a frame, filter material, a feed stream inlet, and a filtrate outlet. The frame is configured so an exterior of the frame is shaped like a wedge. In another aspect, the method comprises inserting an inlet filter into a storm sewer inlet. The inlet filter can be one of a plurality of inlet filters inserted into the storm sewer inlet, the filters cooperating to filter a feed stream entering the storm sewer inlet. In a third aspect, a system comprises a plurality of inlet filters configured to be coupled together to filter a feed stream to a storm sewer inlet. The system can be configured so that the width of the plurality of filters is adjustable. For example, a first inlet filter and second inlet filter can be slidably engaged with a connecting filter.
A linear drain group
A linear drain group of fluids from an environment having a collection channel of fluids to be drained includes a cover body, superimposed on the collection channel, and a plurality of support feet coupled to the cover body and arranged resting on the collection channel to support the weight of the cover body. A discharge unit has a drain hole located on the bottom of the collection channel and shaped to allow drainage of the flow of fluids. The collection channel has a plurality of shaped reliefs emerging from the bottom so as to provide the support feet with a base in elevation with respect to the bottom. The shaped reliefs are arranged in succession on at least two parallel orders and a plurality of areas of the bottom are interposed between each order to limit the overall dimensions of the reliefs.
WATER INLET PROTECTION SYSTEM
A water inlet protection system is provided. The system may an adjustable frame defining an interior cavity, the adjustable frame including a plurality of rigid base members, a plurality of slidable corner members, a plurality of nut-and-bolt fasteners, and one or more tabs extending from one or more of the corner members. Each of the slidable corner members includes one or more slots, and each of the nut-and-bolt fasteners includes a bolt that extends through one of the one or more slots and one of the rigid base members. When the respective bolt is loosened, the respective slidable corner member is slidable along the respective slot atop the respective rigid base member, thereby altering a boundary of the interior cavity. When the respective bolt is tightened, the respective slidable corner member is fixed in place atop the respective rigid base member, thereby fixing the boundary of the interior cavity.
Connector pipe screen with expandable ring mounting assembly
A connector pipe screen device configured for mounting on a water conduit includes an expandable ring mounting assembly, the expandable ring mounting assembly being configured to be engagable with and securable to the conduit near or at an axial end of the conduit at which a conduit opening is disposed, a back plate mounted on the expandable ring mounting assembly and a front cover mounted on the back plate. The front cover has a perforated portion defining a multiplicity of openings formed therein to allow water to pass through the perforated portion and to prevent debris carried by the water from passing through the perforated portion.
Flat drain for showers
A flat shower is a drainage fitting for the evacuation of surface and weeping water arising from showering on a tiled surface, where the tiling installation method is thinset, that is, where the tiles are adhered directly to membrane placed on top of a sloping medium such as mortar or foam installed directly to the subfloor. The height of such tile installations being minimal, a novel, minimal height flat drain assembly comprised of angle bar at the shower wall or flat bar in the midst of the flat tile floor, and said bar(s) then made contiguous with a floor drain membrane, is described.
STRUCTURE FOR ATTACHING GRATING LID ONTO RESIN TROUGH BODY; TROUGH TRACK; TROUGH TRACK FORMING METHOD; AND GRATING LID
This resin trough body has an approximately U-shape cross-sectional shape that includes a bottom section and side sections on the two sides. Vertical reinforcement ribs are formed at a prescribed interval on the outer surface of both side sections of a trough body of a prescribed length. Further, near the front and back ends of the trough body, horizontal ribs are formed so as to link two vertical ribs. An accommodation space for accommodating a grating lid is formed by a pair of L-shape members being fixed with bolts to a fixing jig that has been attached to the horizontal ribs. The grating lid is accommodated in said accommodation space, and the grating lid is fixed to a bolt fixing section, which is a mounting hole formed in the horizontal plane of the L-shape members.
