404071000 | MISCELLANEOUS ROAD STRUCTURE (E.G., HEATED PAVEMENT) | 8 |
20100272511 | COMPOSITION AND METHOD FOR STABILIZING ROAD BASE - A road base made from an existing roadbed material and a coal-combustion by-product comprises: a tilled roadbed soil, a coal-combustion fly ash blended into the tilled roadbed soil at 5 to 50 percent by weight, and a site-specific quantity of an emulsion blended into the tilled roadbed soil after the coal-combustion fly ash. The emulsion includes a resin base, and the site-specific quantity ranges from 0.5 to 2.5 gallons per square yard, depending on a type of the tilled roadbed soil, and further depending on a type of the coal-combustion fly ash. | 10-28-2010 |
20110250015 | SECTIONS OF TRAFFIC INFRASTRUCTURES INCLUDING MULTIPURPOSE STRUCTURES - The present invention discloses sections of highway traffic infrastructures, including multipurpose structures, for best combining renewable energy and traffic assistance systems along the highway. According to a first innovative aspect, the distribution of structures accounts for aspects such as driving comfort, (urban) landscape integration and adjustment to energy demand and traffic circulation conditions. According to a complimentary innovative aspect, ample elevated constructions, as required by solar and wind energy systems, combine with certain dimensional dispositions, as required by different traffic assistance means, in view of enhanced energy distribution and traffic safety. | 10-13-2011 |
20120321383 | Structurally Integrated Electric/Heat Generating Energy Recovery (SIEGER) - A structurally integrated modular system for energy recovery from vehicular traffic as further disclosed. The system comprises an “X” & “Y” axis horizontal array of Linear Electromagnetic Generators, (LEGs), in a close packed hexagonal or other shaped structural grid, as further disclosed. Each LEG is spring-less, using a high strength main core magnet, and a fixed lower magnet to repel the main core magnet at a designed coercive restoring force. The plurality of LEGs are contained within Modular Prefabricated Structural Sandwich Composite Panels, (MPSSCPs), designed to be placed upon a roadway surface, (whose upper surfaces are flexible and lower surfaces semi-rigid). The resultant energy recovery is thereby converted to electric power and heat. The MPSSCPs, and their accessory panels are thereby installed upon a roadway bearing surface to generate clean electric power and heat, which thaws ice and snow, when and where necessary. | 12-20-2012 |
20130058716 | Air-blowing-type Road Surface Snow-melting System - Provided is an air-blowing-type road surface snow-melting system which makes it possible to reduce the height of a hollow roadbed body while also making the amount of air blown out from an air-permeable structure substantially uniform. An air-blowing-type road surface snow-melting system ( | 03-07-2013 |
20130266371 | PRE-FABRICATED SIDEWALK BLOCK HAVING A HEATING WIRE - The present invention relates to a pre-fabricated sidewalk block having a heating wire, which may effectively transmit heat through the upper portion of the sidewalk block without losing heat radiated from the heating wire to the ground; which may be easily assembled; and which may absorb the impact of walking. The pre-fabricated sidewalk having the heating wire includes: a lower block having a plurality of first groove parts in the top surface thereof; a buffer plate having a plurality of second groove parts protruding downward so that the plurality of groove parts are inserted and coupled into the first groove parts of the lower block, and which has a first heating wire insertion groove in the length direction in the top surface between the second groove parts which are adjacent to each other; an upper block having a plurality of protrusion parts protruding downward so that the bottom surface thereof is inserted and coupled to the second groove parts of the buffer plate, and which has a second heating wire insertion groove corresponding to the first heating wire insertion groove in the bottom surface between the protrusions which are adjacent to each other; and a heating wire inserted between the first heating wire insertion groove and the second heating wire insertion groove. | 10-10-2013 |
20130343818 | Subsurface Insulation Product and Method for Installing Same - A subsurface thermal insulation product for reducing ground disturbance during a freeze-thaw cycle comprises: a plurality of thermal insulation panels each comprising: a foam board and a water wicking sheet attached to one of the top surface or the bottom surface of the foam board. Each foam board has a top surface and a bottom surface and four peripheral shiplap edges each with a notch that permits multiple thermal insulation panels to be placed in adjacent overlapping engagement. | 12-26-2013 |
20150037096 | SIDEWALK TRENCH SYSTEM - A system may include a first portion of a cabling facility provided in a first trench formed beneath a first expansion joint between a first sidewalk flag and a curb; a second portion of the cabling facility provided in a second trench formed beneath a second expansion joint between the first sidewalk flag and a second sidewalk flag; and a third portion of the cabling facility provided from a cable source and connecting to the first portion of the cabling facility or the second portion of the cabling facility. | 02-05-2015 |
20220136188 | DISSECTING BARRIER - The present subject matter provides a dissecting element that comprises a flat body having an upper side and a bottom side and opposite edges; a hinge on the bottom side wherein the hinge is connected to a surface, wherein the dissecting element is configured to move between an erected state in which the flat body is in an upright position and a horizontal state in which the flat body is adjacently lying on the surface. A plurality of dissecting elements can be provided on a portable ramp and several dissecting elements or ramps establish a barrier system. A method is also provided to prevent passage of vehicles using the dissecting elements. | 05-05-2022 |
