Cold in-place recycling with heating assembly including a heater for asphalt cement and a heat-modifying component

A CIR train includes a milling machine, an asphalt cement supply tank, a mechanism for dispensing asphalt cement onto paving material that has been removed from the roadway by the milling machine, an asphalt cement pump for pumping asphalt cement from the asphalt cement supply tank into and through an asphalt cement flow circuit to the asphalt cement dispensing mechanism. A heating assembly is interposed in the asphalt cement flow circuit between the asphalt cement supply tank and the dispensing mechanism. The heating assembly includes a heater and a heat modifying component. The heater includes an asphalt cement coil that is in the asphalt cement flow circuit, and a burner that is adapted to direct hot gases of combustion across the asphalt cement coil. The heat modifying component is adapted to modulate the amount of heat transfer from the hot gases of combustion to the asphalt cement in the coil.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR THE TRACKING OF MILLING MATERIAL
20190338640 · 2019-11-07 ·

A system and method are provided for the tracking of material milled via a milling machine, to improve recycling possibilities for the milling material. The milling material removed during milling is deposited onto a vehicle for transport to a deposition site. A first detection device associated with the milling machine detects data signals relating to the milling material, and the milling material is tracked via a documentation device comprising a user interface, based at least on the data signals. The documentation device may selectively display which milling material has been unloaded at a particular deposition site. A marking device may be provided to mark the milling material or the transport vehicle, and/or a second detection device may be provided to detect position data corresponding to the deposition site, wherein the marking and/or position data are interlinked with the data signals relating to the milling material in the documentation device.

Sinuous traffic line
10428473 · 2019-10-01 · ·

A sinusoidal traffic line that has scalloped edges to form a sine wave that increases visibility under conditions of reduced visibility is formed of a pre-cut ribbon or applied traffic line material (e.g., sprayed thermoplastic material). The traffic lines have a wavy left edge and a wavy right edge. The edges are formed in a regular pattern, having a regular amplitude and wavelength relative to a directional vector along the axis of the traffic line. The patterns of the outer edges are arranged in an opposite arrangement such that they converge and diverge. The upper surface of the traffic line can be embossed by an embossed device so as to create a regular pattern and increase reflectivity.
