404007000 | Curb | 10 |
20090035062 | VEHICLE BARRIER - A vehicle barrier that has a three-dimensional shape of a product for advertising. | 02-05-2009 |
20090190998 | Aquifer Replenishment System - A concrete structure for replenishing an aquifer and a method for constructing the same is provided. The structure is comprised of a pavement layer with surface drains that extend through the pavement layer and into an aggregate leach field. The leach field includes leach lines spanning the leach field. An aggregate drain extends from the leach field into a sand lens. Precipitation which falls upon the structure thus flows through the surface drain, absorbed into the aggregate leach field, and transported to the aggregate drains by way of aggregate leach lines. The water is then absorbed into the sand lens, ultimately replenishing the aquifer. Existing conventional pavement structures are retrofitted by the removal of a section of the pavement, and filling the same with porous concrete. | 07-30-2009 |
20090208286 | Synthetic Kerbs and Method of Installation - A plastics or rubber kerbstone ( | 08-20-2009 |
20090238641 | System and Method for Stabilizing Parking Curb Anchors - A system for anchoring a parking curb is provided which may include an anchoring rod and a plate. The anchoring rod bisects the plate and is parallel to the thickness of the plate. The anchoring rod may bisect the plate through a center point of the plate. The plate may be secured to the anchoring rod. In some embodiments, the anchoring rod and plate can be manufactured as one piece. The plate may be of any suitable shape, including square and rectangular. | 09-24-2009 |
20100098487 | PARKING BARRIER ACTIVATED BY ITS OWN ELECTRIC ENERGY CREATION - The mentioned parking barrier doesn't need a prior electric infrastructure since it creates it for its own use and for the units which are connected to it. When a vehicle comes into contact with the parking barrier unit, the part bearing the weight of the vehicle, the mechanical parts of the parking barrier unit will be set in motion. The motion of the mechanical parts in the parking barrier unit will activate a device that converts mechanical energy to electrical energy. The electrical energy that is created by the device is stored in a storage device. The stored electrical energy will serve to activate the various parts of the parking barrier unit and its parts. | 04-22-2010 |
20100119302 | Curb system apparatus and method therefor - Disclosed herein is a system and method for a seamless curb system suitable for a sanitary environment while providing an energy absorbing structure. The multicellular structure has a substantially uniform cross section. The structure is formed of hi-density, energy absorbing, expanding polypropylene foam, similar to bumper systems used in cars and trucks. An outer shell is disposed over at least a front portion of the structure. The outer shell may be stainless steel or a polyurea/polyaspartic reinforced coating, as examples. The elements are sealed to each other in an end to end relationship adjacent to a wall to form an energy absorbing protective barrier to the wall. At least one anchor is disposed in a slot in the floor of the manufacturing facility to provide support. | 05-13-2010 |
20110091274 | CURB SYSTEM APPARATUS AND METHOD THEREFOR - Disclosed herein is a system and method for a seamless curb system suitable for a sanitary environment. The structural material has a substantially uniform cross section. The structure is preferably formed of concrete as is used in traditional curb systems. An outer shell is provided which provides a permanent form for containing the structural material. In the preferred embodiment, the outer shell is formed of stainless steel. The elements are sealed to each other in an end to end relationship and along the floor a sanitary environment. At least one anchor is disposed in a slot in the floor of the sanitary environment to locate the curb system. | 04-21-2011 |
20120148343 | LOW FRICTION SAFETY SYSTEM FOR A PERSONAL VEHICLE GUIDEWAY - In a vehicle guideway having a vehicle track, a guidance system is provided comprising one or more guide curbs installed along a length of the guideway, and a low-friction coating or coatings presented by the curbs, a vehicle's tires, or both, the coating or coatings reducing friction and wear in the event of contact between the tires and the one or more guide curbs. | 06-14-2012 |
20140270938 | SYSTEMS FOR CONVERTING AN EXISTING TRAFFIC INTERSECTION INTO AN INTERSECTION HAVING A ROUNDABOUT, AND RELATED METHODS - A system for converting an existing traffic intersection into an intersection having a roundabout traffic control feature includes a center island framework, one or more splitter island frameworks, and one or more diverter frameworks. The frameworks are secured to the road surface, and fill material is added to free spaces defined in the frameworks to thereby form a center island, one or more splitter islands, and one or more diverters. The system allows a roundabout to be implemented into an existing intersection on a temporary or semi-permanent basis, in a minimal amount of time and without requiring significant construction at the site of the intersection. | 09-18-2014 |

20160040376 | Cover for a Concrete Parking Block - A cover for a concrete parking block has a first lateral end, second lateral end and a longitudinal enclosure. The first lateral end and the second lateral end can be either open or closed. The longitudinal enclosure is the same length as the concrete parking block. The protective cover can be made of high-density polyethylene (HDPE), Thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO), Acrylonitrile Butadiene styrene (ABS) or foam and resin. The protective cover can also be used to as a bicycle stand. In doing so, the bicycle wheels are inserted into V-shaped slots of the longitudinal enclosure. A water bladder is attached to the protective cover when used as a bicycle stand. A reflective coating is applied on the exterior of the protective cover in order to provide more visibility during low light conditions. | 02-11-2016 |
