IMPACT ATTENUATOR AND VEHICLE, TRAILER AND GUARDRAIL COMPRISING SUCH AN IMPACT ATTENUATOR
20170234393 · 2017-08-17 ·

An impact attenuator including an impact head, coupled to a first end of an energy absorption body, which energy absorption body is arranged for fixation to an external structure at a second end opposing the first end of the energy absorption body, configured to at least partly absorb or dissipate energy from a collision of an object with the impact head, and including a first part and a second part extending substantially lengthwise behind each other, wherein the first and second part are mutually moveable and including a first and a second cutting edge, wherein, the first cutting edge is arranged for splitting the first part of the energy absorption body upon impact of an object colliding with the impact head, and the second cutting edge is arranged for consecutively splitting the second part of the energy absorption body upon impact of an object colliding with the impact head.

Energy absorbing guardrail system
09732484 · 2017-08-15 ·

A highway crash attenuation system having W-beam rail elements attached to a plurality of vertical posts. An impact terminal with a feeder chute guides one or more of the W-beam rail elements through the impact terminal. The feeder chute has an impact shield extending along a traffic-facing side of the chute from an upstream-most end to a downstream-most end of the chute closing the traffic-facing side of the chute. The system also has an anchor cable release mechanism for releasing the cable downstream of the first vertical post and an improved first breakaway post.

Column protector

A column protection apparatus includes a number of impact absorbing members, each impact absorbing member including a protrusion and a protrusion receiving opening. The protrusion of each impact absorption member is inserted into the protrusion receiving opening of another, different impact absorption member such that a column-receiving opening is formed through the impact absorbing members.

Barrier system and barrier system installation method

Disclosed herein is a bollard system including an impact receiving post and a foundation cage. The impact receiving post includes an outer surface, a proximal end, and a distal end. The foundation cage defines a three-dimensional lattice structure. The foundation cage is coupled to the proximal end of the impact receiving post and is configured for installation in concrete beneath a ground surface. The foundation cage defines a recess to receive a proximal portion of the impact receiving post. The foundation cage includes a horizontal stop member at least partially extending across the recess and supporting the impact receiving post and preventing the impact receiving post from extending further into the foundation cage before the concrete sets.
