The present invention relates to a roof drain structure comprised of a drain plate having an upstanding overflow port and a clamp ring used to secure an edge of the roofing substrate against the drain plate and around the overflow port. The clamp ring surrounds and physically cooperates with the overflow port to align several screw apertures and the clamp ring with several corresponding apertures in the drain plate. There are preferably at least two alternative drain plates having different size overflow ports, and a clamp ring that may be modified to fit either of the ports and still align the screw apertures. The preferred clamp ring has removable spokes that are left in place for use with a smaller overflow port and that are removed for use with a larger overflow port. The overflow port is preferably stepped to have a lower larger portion and an upper smaller portion so that the contractor can modify the overflow port in the field to accommodate different sized drain pipes. The preferred drain structure also includes a drain grate and alternative adapters that may be used to connect the drain grate to any one of several different sized pipes. The preferred adapter includes exterior notches that allow passage of the removable spokes of the clamp ring. In this fashion, it is possible to unscrew and remove the clamp ring without having to remove the ordinarily permanently cemented adapter.

A drain structure for removing water from a substantially flat roof comprising: a drain plate having a substantially flat body sized to cover an aperture cut in the substantially flat roof; an overflow port comprised of a hollow boss extending upwardly from the flat body of said drain plate; a plurality of first screw apertures formed in the flat body of said drain plate around said overflow port; a clamp ring sized to fit around the hollow boss of said overflow port so that an edge portion of a roof membrane which surrounds the hollow boss may be securely clamped to the flat body of said drain plate to help prevent water from leaking under the edge portion of the roof membrane; a plurality of second screw apertures formed about a periphery of said clamp ring, said second screw apertures spatially corresponding to said first screw apertures when said clamp ring is oriented in a particular position relative to the flat body of said drain plate; and means for orienting said clamp ring in the particular position where said second screw apertures of said clamp ring align with said first screw apertures of said base plate.
