PRE-FILLED ADHESIVE PAVEMENT MARKERS
A method, comprising: providing a pre-filled adhesive pavement marker having a body with downwardly facing openings that are pre-filled with an adhesive; providing an adhesive pad of the adhesive on a surface of a pavement; attaching the pre-filled adhesive pavement marker to the adhesive pad to thereby adhere the pre-filled pavement marker to the surface of the pavement.
Magnetic marker
A sheet-shaped magnetic marker (1) to be laid on a road surface so as to be able to be detected by a magnetic sensor attached to a vehicle to achieve assist for driving operation of the vehicle by a driver or control on a vehicle side to achieve automatic driving independently from operation of the driver is divided into a plurality of regions in a matrix shape by a cut line (1C) cutting a magnet sheet (11) and a nonskid layer (181), with an adhesive layer being left. Thus, if peeling partially occurs, a region including the peeled part can be isolated, and expansion of peeling can be prevented.

SIGN HAVING THREE-DEMENSIONAL EFFECT, METHOD FOT MANUFACTURING SAME, ANTI-SKID PAVEMENT ASSEMBLY, AND STICKER
A manufacturing method of a 3D stereoeffect sign includes designing a figure or a character having specific information, giving a volume to the figure or the character by providing one or more vanishing points, setting a projection height of the figure or the character having the volume which is projected to the eyes of a viewer which is located at a reference distance, setting a printed length of the figure or the character having the volume to correspond to the projection height, setting a printed width of the figure or the character having the volume, and adjusting the length and the width of the figure or the character having the volume proportionally to correspond to the printed length and the printed width.

Snowplowable Pavement Marker
Disclosed are improved snowplowable pavement markers held fixedly to a roadway by adhesive. The markers include a holder and at least one transversely arranged reflector to retroreflect incident light from headlights of approaching vehicles. The holders have a pocket for supporting the reflector. One or more through openings having angled sides are defined in the bottom of the pocket so that when the marker is installed in an adhesive bed on the pavement, adhesive flows into contact with the holder and the bottom of the reflector to simultaneously affix both to the pavement. Reflectors may be replaced by simply chiseling an old reflector out of the holder pocket to create a flat bottom surface in the pocket to which a bead of mastic adhesive is applied and a new reflector is subsequently installed. This new marker construction applies to both raised and recessed snowplowable pavement markers.
Pavement marking tape with modified polyurethane topcoat
The inventors of the present disclosure discovered that use of a urea-modified polyurethane coating as the topcoat in a pavement marking tape has numerous advantages. The urea-modified polyurethane topcoat is the reaction product of an aspartic ester polyamine, a polyisocynate, and a polyol. The urea-modified topcoat is adjacent to a base layer. The base layer and topcoat form a pavement marking tape.

Directional Surface Marking Safety and Guidance Devices and Systems
The present disclosure provides for a directional surface marking that provides directional messaging to users based on their direction of travel on a base surface, such as a roadway, walkway, or interior flooring, as non-limiting examples. In some aspects, the directional messaging may comprise different colors, text, or symbols, wherein a user may view different directional messaging on a directional surface marking dependent on direction of travel. In some embodiments, directional surface markings may comprise a profile layer, wherein the profile layer may comprise a plurality of profiles, which may provide a topography that allows for directional messaging utilizing surface colors on the topography.
