Abstract

Example aspects of riser support assembly and a riser system are disclosed. The riser support assembly can comprise a riser support pipe comprising a cylindrical sidewall defining a first end, an opposing second end, and an intermediate portion extending therebetween; and a mount defining an arm and a pedestal, the arm extending from the intermediate portion of the cylindrical sidewall, the pedestal extending from the arm distal to the riser support pipe, the pedestal configured to engage a mounting surface.

Claims (36)

1. A riser support assembly comprising:

a riser support pipe comprising a cylindrical sidewall defining a first end, an opposing second end, and an intermediate portion extending therebetween; and

a mount defining an arm and a pedestal, the arm extending from the intermediate portion of the cylindrical sidewall, the pedestal extending from the arm distal to the riser support pipe, the pedestal configured to engage a mounting surface.

2. The riser support assembly of claim 1 , wherein the pedestal is oriented substantially parallel to the riser support pipe.

3. The riser support assembly of claim 1 , wherein the pedestal comprises a leg and a foot, the leg extending from the arm, the foot oriented distal to the arm, the foot defining a base surface configured to engage the mounting surface.

4. The riser support assembly of claim 3 , wherein a width of the base surface of the foot is greater than a width of the leg.

5. The riser support assembly of claim 3 , wherein the arm defines a hole, and the leg of the pedestal engages the hole to couple the pedestal to the arm.

6. The riser support assembly of claim 5 , wherein the hole is a threaded hole and the leg defines external threading configured to rotationally engage the threaded hole.

7. The riser support assembly of claim 6 , further comprising a nut rotationally mounted on the leg.

8. The riser support assembly of claim 1 , wherein the arm is welded to an exterior surface of cylindrical sidewall.

9. The riser support assembly of claim 1 , wherein the mount is adjustable between a first orientation and a second orientation to selectively adjust a height of the riser support assembly relative to the mounting surface.

10. The riser support assembly of claim 9 , wherein:

in the first orientation, the pedestal defines a first effective length and is extended relative to the arm; and

in the second orientation, the pedestal defines a second effective length and is shortened relative to the arm.

11. The riser support assembly of claim 1 , wherein the mount is a first mount, the first mount extending from a first side of the riser support pipe, the riser support assembly further comprising a second mount extending from a second side of the riser support pipe opposite the first side.

12. The riser support assembly of claim 1 , further comprising a first coupling attached to the first end of the riser support pipe, wherein the first coupling is configured to engage a riser of a piping system.

13. The riser support assembly of claim 12 , wherein the first coupling comprises:

a first coupling segment;

a second coupling segment; and

a gasket, wherein the gasket is configured to be pushed over the first end of the riser support pipe, and wherein the first and second coupling segment are configured to be assembled around the gasket and secured together to prohibit the riser support pipe from disengaging the first coupling.

14. A riser system comprising:

a riser support pipe comprising a cylindrical sidewall and a mount extending from the cylindrical sidewall, the cylindrical sidewall defining a first end and a second end opposite the first end, the mount configured to support the riser support pipe on a mounting surface;

a first coupling attached to the first end of the riser support pipe; and

a second coupling attached to the second end of the riser support pipe.

15. The riser system of claim 14 , further comprising a floor defining a bore and the mounting surface, the cylindrical sidewall extending through the bore.

16. The riser system of claim 14 , wherein the mount defines an arm extending from the cylindrical sidewall and a pedestal extending from the arm distal to the riser support pipe, wherein the pedestal is oriented substantially parallel to cylindrical sidewall.

17. The riser system of claim 16 , wherein;

the pedestal comprises a leg extending from the arm and a foot oriented distal to the arm;

the foot defines a base surface configured to engage the mounting surface; and

a width of the base surface of the foot is greater than a width of the leg.

18. The riser system of claim 14 , wherein the mount is adjustable between a first orientation and a second orientation to selectively adjust a height of the riser support pipe relative to the mounting surface.

19. The riser system of claim 18 , wherein:

the mount defines an arm extending from the cylindrical sidewall and a pedestal extending from the arm distal to the cylindrical sidewall;

in the first orientation, the pedestal defines a first effective length and is extended relative to the arm; and

in the second orientation, the pedestal defines a second effective length and is shortened relative to the arm.

20. The riser system of claim 14 , wherein each of the first coupling and second coupling comprises a first coupling segment, a second coupling segment, and a gasket received therebetween.
