  • Patent number: 9464426
    Abstract: A one-piece faceplate for supporting a wall mounted toilet above a floor surface having a faceplate body that defines a receiving hole extending therethrough configured to receive a waste discharge conduit is provided. Further, a support member extends from at least one surface of the faceplate body that is configured to contact the floor surface, thereby providing support to a wall mounted toilet. The support member is non-adjustable relative to the faceplate body. The faceplate body has a collar extending outwardly therefrom around the periphery of the receiving hole. The receiving hole is adapted to receive contents from the waste discharge conduit upon threadable engagement with the collar. Additionally, a method for providing a faceplate for supporting a wall mounted toilet is also provided.

  • Patent number: 9290925
    Abstract: A stabilizing collar which is adapted to fasten to a drain pipe for stabilizing a drain. The stabilizing collar in the form of a ring includes an opening between an inner surface for receipt of a pipe and defines an engagement member for securing the body to the pipe and a support receiving member adapted to receive a support member for supporting the drain on the stabilizing collar. The present invention further provides for a method of installing the stabilizing collar to stabilize a receptacle body of the drain. The receptacle body is attached to the pipe and the support members are adjusted so that they contact the receptacle body and therefore provide support to keep the receptacle body at the same slope as the floor level.

  • Patent number: 7958686
    Abstract: A drain support pan assembly has a drain body support pan which has a rectangular-shaped body connected to a rectangular-shaped drain receptacle body for use in floor drains. The distance between the support pan and receptacle body can be adjusted according to the depth of the floor space by selecting a predetermined length for the fasteners. The support pan has a center passageway for receiving a drain pipe and several slots that align with threaded passageways in the receptacle body for receiving the fasteners. The support pan contains concentric knock-out sections which can be removed for enlarging the diameter of the center passageway to accommodate varying diameter drain pipes or pipe connections for particular use in a deep floor space, and also has a rectangular knock-out section which can be removed for receiving the rectangular-shaped drain receptacle for use in a narrow floor space.
