ABSTRACT:
An adjustable sewer inlet section for collecting and directing surface water to an underground conduit of a sewer. The inlet section comprises an eccentric hollow member adapted to be adjustably rotated on the top of the underground conduit to adjust the position of a surface water receiving member relative to a reference line, even though the underground conduit has been misplaced. A non-rigid connector is provided for connecting the receiving member in flow communication with the underground conduit, while allowing relative movement of the receiving member with respect to the underground conduit. The receiving member is provided with an inwardly directed bottom wall adapted to ensure proper distribution of loads from the receiving member to the underlying ground material.
