An improved roof drain cover useful in minimizing the changes of comparatively large amounts of water backing up around the drain can be constructed so as to include primary and secondary rims serving as weirs located on a flange which extends around a centrally positioned grate. The primary rim is formed at the periphery of the flange and integrally therewith, while the secondary rim is formed adjacent the junction of the flange and grate and forms a channel with the grate. Notches are provided in these rims so as to permit water flow through them. The dimensioned rims are so that, as such inorganic particles accumulate against them, lighter organic material such as leaves will be carried by draining water over the rims and up against the grate.

A roof drain cover having a centrally located, upstanding, perforate, hollow grate and a generally circular peripheral mounting flange attached to the periphery of the bottom of said grate so as to extend outwardly therefrom in which the improvement comprises: said grate having a generally circular peripheral end meeting perpendicularly with said flange and joining integrally therewith; a primary upstanding circular rim serving as a weir attached to the periphery of said mounting flange so as to extend upwardly from said flange a distance less than the height of said grate, said primary rim having a plurality of first notches located so as to extend from the upper end of said rim toward the flange, said first notches in said primary rim being equally spaced from one another and terminating above said flange, a secondary upstanding circular rim also serving as a weir formed as part of said mounting flange adjacent to and outside the juncture of said grate and said mounting flange so as to be spaced from said grate to define a channel between said grate and said secondary rim and so as to extend upwardly from said mounting flange a distance less than the height of said grate, said secondary rim having a plurality of second notches located so as to extend from the upper end of said rim toward the mounting flange, said second notches in said secondary rim being equally spaced from one another and terminating above said mounting flange, and particle collection means located in said mounting flange between said primary and secondary rims; said second notches being of a size smaller than said first notches, the respective sizes of said first and second notches and respective heights of said primary and secondary rims being selected such that inorganic material is filtered by size and said primary and secondary rims and such that organic matter lighter than said inorganic matter floats up and over heavier inorganic material; said peripheral mounting flange including weep holes leading through said mounting flange from said channel.
