51 mins confidence: 
mounting lip / ledge Explanation: I think this is some kind of raised lip or ledge at the base of the pipe, on which the screen is mounted (unless it's 'sohlsprungfrei', see ref.), but I don't know the specific technical term. Does anyone have any thoughts? Cheers, Frazer Reference: http://www.bgu-online.de/de/produkte/abfluss/cont.htm |

52 mins confidence:
shoulder, jut(ty), overhang Explanation: I believe it's a protruding part of the bed/sole used for anchoring the screen? [SohlenVORsprung] the only reference I found for Sohlensprung was "sohleneben" i.e. on the same level with the bed. See if this make s sense.Good luck! |

1 hr confidence: peer agreement (net): +1
peer agreement (net): +1step in the bottom of the channel (bottom step?) Explanation: there may be a more elegant way to say it, but a Sohl(en)prung is just an abrupt change in the level of the bottom of the channel (but not a groove or ridge). See the reference which has diagrams of various sorts of equipment without and without Sohlsprung (eg tahe Waage-Drossel) Reference: http://www.bgu-online.de/de/produkte/abfluss/cont.htm |
