Abstract
A promenade drain for installation on a surface. The promenade drain including a base at least partially defining a channel and an outlet, a connector couplable to the base to form a first joint therebetween, a grate defining one or more apertures, and a frame. The frame, in turn, includes a second sliding surface configured to slide relative to a first sliding surface of the connector, and where the frame can be rotated with respect to the base without influencing the first joint.

A promenade drain configured for installation on a surface, the promenade drain comprising:
- a base at least partially defining a channel and an outlet, wherein the base defines a base axis;
- a connector couplable to the base to form a first joint therebetween, wherein the connector includes a first sliding surface;
- a grate defining one or more apertures;
- and
- a frame that includes a second sliding surface configured to slide relative to the first sliding surface, wherein the frame includes a grate seat configured to receive at least a portion of the grate therein, and wherein the frame can be rotated with respect to the base without influencing the first joint.
A promenade drain comprising:
- a base defining a channel and an axis;
- a connector fixedly coupled to the base, wherein the connector includes a first sliding surface;
- and
- a frame rotatable relative to the base, the frame comprising:
- a grate seat configured to receive a grate therein,
- a second sliding surface configured to slide relative to the first sliding surface, and
- an aperture in fluid communication with the channel, wherein the aperture is open to the second sliding surface.
A method of installing a promenade drain in a surface, the promenade drain including a base, a connector, and a frame, the method comprising:
- installing the base in the surface;
- coupling the connector to the base to form a first joint therebetween;
- and
- coupling the frame to the connector, the frame being coupled to the connector independent of the first joint.
