  • Publication number: 20140261768
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide a drainage channel in a floor member of a screened enclosure wall frame. The drainage channel facilitates drainage (typically of water from inside the screened enclosure to outside the screened enclosure), while also providing a barrier to insects and other pests. In a first embodiment, the drainage channel includes gate openings and corresponding gates disposed directly onto each side of a floor member of a screen frame. A variant of the first embodiment includes a weeping slot on at least one side of the drainage channel. In second and third embodiments, a section of the floor member is replaced with a drain insert. A drainage channel in the drain insert may include one or more gate openings and associated gates. The drainage channel in the drain insert may also include one or more weeping slots.

  • Patent number: 4705276
    Abstract: A base is provided from which an overlying support is supported for angular displacement about an upstanding axis passing centrally through the support. A plurality of elongated coplanar support arms are disposed generally radially of and spaced equally about the axis and are mounted from the support for longitudinal extension and retraction of the arms relative to adjacent portions of the outer periphery of the support. The arms include outer end portions from which elongated gameboard marginal edge support members are mounted extending transversely of the arms and the support members include upwardly facing support surface portions spaced longitudinally therealong for support of a corresponding marginal portion of a gameboard therefrom. The support surface portions are generally coplanar with the upper surface of the horizontal support.
