ABSTRACT:
A modular junction fitting system for joining ends of two or more lengths of edge-type drainage robing (being of the type that is substantially taller than it is wide in transverse cross-section). The junction fitting of the invention includes a central generally vertically oriented tube that is substantially taller than it is wide, side walls having, for each edge-type drainage tube to be connected to such fitting, one or more orifices for permitting fluid communication of the drainage tubing with the interior of the central tube. A connector is provided for connecting the edge-type drainage tubing to the central vertical tube in alignment with the orifices. The system can utilize simple mechanical attachments between the drain tubing, the connector, and the central tube, permitting easy fabrication of a wide variety of fittings, thus permitting the system to be used in a wide variety of configurations.
