This invention relates to improvements in likewise to provide against any of the gravel root drains and has as its general object to or other rooling material entering the drain, provide a durableand substantial root drain the sheet et which the drain is formed is which may be installed in practically any pressed to provide an upstanding 'bead 5 y60 typ-e oi' root construction and connected. or which is continuous and' centrally located any type et rooting. with respect to the margin of the pan and ,-.uer objet-t et the invention is to prospaced from and surrounds the opening' 2 in 'oogt drain which will'be so constructed the pan. T his bead is preferably of a gradun eilcctually Licrtoriii its tunction in V:illy curved contour in cross scetion so that-'65 'ai mg the 'water 'trein the root and conit may spread under expansion or contract duet the same without leakage,'to the down `with the construction of the roof, and the said pipe l ib, or o r it'ting. bead is of sutlicient height to provide against y ier object ot the invention is to proany ot' the gravel or other rooting material,

Therefore, the bead defines orsurconti-tation, duc to se jing vor shrinkage oit rounds an area of the pan which is smooth 75 o0 the root structure, will be compensated 'tor so :and not covered by the roofing material and @it lilicliliood of leakage is reduced to a over which the rain water may readily HOW vide a root d minimum.

The shell further includes an 110 ing but of a lighter gauge than the section 6. The section 14 comprises the inner section of the shell and the same is exteriorly oi al ldiameter somewhat less than the internal diameter of the section 6 of the shell7 the exterior diameter of the shell section 14, however, being substantially equ al to the internal diameter of the hub 10 below the socket thereof, so that the lower end of the shell section 14 is adapted( to fit snugly within the said hub. At its upper end, the shell section 141 is formed with an outstanding circuinseribing flange 15 which rests flat upon the upper side oi? the flange 7 oit the outer shell section G,
rlhe numeral 1G indicates in general the .strainer cap of the drain and this cap is oit domelike form and is provided in its top with openings 17 and in its sides with openings 18 for the passage of rain water and the entrance oi' air AVto provide for freerilow of the water into the drain, the lower edge of the cap being` provided with notches 19 through which the rain water may flow from the pan 1 The said lower edge or base oit the cap 1G is disposed to rest against the outstanding flange of the shell section 11i, and the strainer cap'is provided exterior-ly at intervals in the circumference of its bottom portion with lugs 20 which are notched as indicated by the numeral 21, so as to accommod ate brass bolts 22 which are threaded through outstanding lugs or ears -23 upon the flange l" and into threaded openings 211- `formed in the pan 1 adjacent the opening 2 therein, the several eom ponent parts oif the drain being, in this inanner, connected together to constitute a uni lary structure.
It will be evident that inasmuch the section 14 of the shell oit the drain is of less diameter than the outer section Gu a. dead air space 221 will be provided between the sections` thus insulating the sectionsso that there will be no likelihood of the formation ol water oi. condensation, upon the sui-race ofthe section 6 which might otherwise occur, due to the presence of warm7 moist air within the building in whichthe drain is installed.V Furthermore, the section 6 establishes a` lirm and rigid connection between the drain as a whole and the hub titting 10, and the section 14 is, therefore, relieved of strain and is better adaptedto serve its primary junction of conducting the rain water to the hub 10.
It will likewise be evident from the toregoing` description of the invention that the parts comprising the drain will not'be subjected to stresses or strains due to expansion or contraction oi. the roof structure, because of the provision of the expansible and contracti'ble bead 5, which bead, as previously explained, likewise serves as an abutment or stop to prevent any of the reaching the strainer cap 16.
Having thus described the invention, what we claim is:
In a structure of the character described a drain pipe havin g its upper end portion enlarged to provide a socket open at its upper end, a roof drain comprising inner and outer tubes, the outer tube having its upper end adapted to be secured to a roof and its lower end portion extending into. said socket in spaced relation to the walls thereof and pro-` vided with an outstanding annular iiange bearing against the walls of 'the socket, the inner tube being spaced from the walls outer tube and having its upper` and in airti g'ht engagement therewith and its lower end portion projecting downwardly and li'tting snugly within the drain pipe beneath the socket to ttorm a dead-air space between the tubes, and packing` in the socket about the outer tube to firmly hold the same'in place.
In testimony whereof we affix our-.signaH tures. 7
