  • Patent number: 7134808
    Abstract: Plastic liner sections define a drainage channel when placed end to end. Each end has a stiff, double walled flange at each side of the end adapted to butt up to a similar flange at the adjacent end of the next sections. The double walled construction of the flanges stiffens the ends significantly reducing the risk of deformation by the hydrostatic forces produced by wet concrete during installation. A groove is formed inwardly of the flanges on a female end of the liner section and receives a sealing ring, which is held in place by a lip formed on a male end.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 8, 2004
    Date of Patent: November 14, 2006
    Assignee: ACO Polymer Products, Inc.

  • Publication number: 20060034667
    Abstract: Plastic liner sections (2) define a drainage channel when placed end to end. Each end (6,8) has a stiff, double walled flange (34) at each side of the end adapted to butt up to a similar flange (34) at the adjacent end of the next sections (2). The double walled construction of the flanges (34) stiffens the ends (6,8) significantly reducing the risk of deformation by the hydrostatic forces produced by wet concrete during installation. A groove (24) is formed inwardly of the flanges (34) on a female end (6) of the liner section (2) and receives a sealing ring (52), which is held in place by a lip (26) formed on a male end (8).
