RU2535561C2 - Floodgate for drainage chutes - Google Patents

Abstract

FIELD: agriculture.

SUBSTANCE: floodgate comprises a frame and a panel. The frame is a perimeter support with the inner border which ends with an edge. The panel dimensions are smaller than the dimensions of the perimeter support. The panel rests on the edges and on the inner border through several spacers. The spacers comprise a vertical wall and a horizontal wall with a rib. The rib together with the horizontal wall forms a U-shaped profile enveloping the edge.

EFFECT: safe and easy to clean floodgate.

Description

The present invention relates to a drain for gutters. The scope of this invention relates to drainage devices in General, and in particular to the design of the bases of the shower cabins.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The drainage of the water in the drainage channels is usually carried out by means of a grill or perforated panel, which is tightly fitted to a suitable frame. The location and small size of the holes for water passage lead to frequent blockages due to accumulation of dirt, hair, etc., which creates the need for constant cleaning to maintain normal functioning and acceptable appearance.

Therefore, it is an object of the present invention to provide a drain for drains that is safe and easy to clean.

Another objective of the present invention is the provision of a drain for drainage gutters, which has the simplest design.

Description of the invention

To achieve these goals, the design of the drain for the drainage gutters requires a perimeter support that rests on the drainage gutter and on the inner side, which ends with an edge.

The panel, whose dimensions are smaller than the dimensions of the perimeter support, rests on the edges and is separated from the inner side through groups of spacers, which for this purpose contain a vertical wall, a horizontal wall and a rib, which allows you to fasten the panel to the edge of the inner side of the frame, which captures the panel.

Thus, a perimetric gap is created between the panel and the frame through which water circulates. The device allows you to create an intense through flow due to the large perimeter of this type of gutter, even with a small gap between the panel and the frame.

In addition to the high flow rate, the invention also provides a clean and safe device, the installation of which is extremely simple and economical.

Detailed Description of a Preferred Embodiment

As can be seen in Figures 1 and 2, the drain for the drainage channels according to the invention consists of a frame (1), which contains a perimeter support (2) and an inner side (3), which ends with the edges (4).

The panel (5), the dimensions of which are slightly smaller than the dimensions of the perimeter support (2) of the frame (1), rests on the edges (4) and on the inner side (3) using several spacers (6), which for this purpose contain a vertical wall ( 7) and the horizontal wall (8). The rib (9) is located below the horizontal wall (8) to create a U-shaped profile that captures the edge (4), allowing the spacers (6) to be attached to it.

Optionally, the rib (9) of the spacer (6) may include a pin (10), which should fit into a drilled hole (11) made in the edge (4), which improves the fastening of the spacer (6) to the frame (1).

Thus, and as can be seen in figure 3, the panel (5) is separated from the inner side (3), and from its edge (4), which allows water to move freely. Although it may seem that the gap between the panel (5) and the frame (1) is too narrow to allow the movement of an intense flow of water, but the size of the gap does not interfere with the flow due to the large perimeter of the device. A possible change in the direction of the water flow does not cause a noticeable decrease in the flow intensity.

There are many variations of this invention that are obvious to those skilled in the art that can adapt an embodiment of a design and production methods without going beyond the scope of the invention. Thus, preferably, the panel (5) is made of tempered glass, although it can also be made of stone, ceramic or other suitable material. Similarly, the frame (1) is preferably made from a folded stainless steel sheet, although it can also be made by injection molding or any other suitable material.

Claims (2)

1. A drain for drainage gutters, characterized in that it contains a frame (1), which is a perimeter support (2) with an inner side (3), which ends with an edge (4), and a panel (5), the dimensions of which are smaller than the dimensions perimeter support (2) and which rests on the edges (4) and on the inner side (3) through several spacers (6), which for this purpose comprise a vertical wall (7) and a horizontal wall (8) containing a rib (9), which together with the horizontal wall (8) forms a U-shaped profile, wrapping around the edge (4). 2. A drain for drainage trenches according to claim 1, characterized in that the rib (9) of the spacer (6) comprises a pin (10) configured to fit into a drilled hole (11) made for this purpose in the edge (4) .
