Abstract: Slotted channels with coverings (10) are known for discharging surface water into a channel. The covering has at least one horizontal sheet-metal portion (13) and two vertical sheet-metal portions (11, 12) which are connected to one another via connection devices and have a slot (14) between one another for discharging liquid, for example surface water, into the channel body. In order to allow a particularly complete discharge of water, it is proposed that the horizontal sheet-metal portion (13) comprises drip devices (15) which are mounted and designed in such a way that water running along on an underside of the horizontal sheet-metal portion (13) drips into the channel body.

Abstract: Hitherto known gratings for covering shafts, channels or similar structures comprise peripheral rails (10, 10?) cross-bars (20) that are joined to the peripheral rails (10, 10?) and consist of sheet metal sections, and longitudinal bars (30) joined to the cross-bars (20). In order to provide a better foothold and improved anti-skid properties, the longitudinal bars (30) are secured to the cross-bars (20) in such a way that top stepping surfaces (31) of the longitudinal bars (30) are lower than or flush with at least stepping portions (21) of upper edges (22) of the cross-bars (20).
