A vehicle for patching road pavements comprising a frame, a container for holding the new paving material, a radiating plate, a rake, a paver for distributing and levelling a new paving material, a compactor and a support structure which comprises a movable part. The frame supports the support structure and the container which comprises an outlet for supplying the paver. The movable part bears the paver, the rake and the compactor and translates with respect to the frame in a first direction from a retracted position to an extracted position so that they operate on successive parts of the zone to be patched. The radiating plate is movable vertically beneath the frame and the rake is vertically movable with respect to the paver and the compactor.

The following disclosure relates to portable systems for dispensing crack sealant and associated devices and methods. The systems and methods described herein may overcome operational inconveniences exhibited by existing systems and may facilitate the operation of such systems. In one embodiment, a walk-behind sealant dispensing system comprises a housing, a kettle disposed inside the housing for holding and dispensing sealant, and a poppet valve actuatable between a closed state and an open state to selectively cause sealant to be dispensed from the kettle. The poppet valve includes a valve body and a flange extending outwardly from the valve body. The flange includes a fastener hole formed therethrough. The poppet valve is attached to the housing via a fastener extending through the fastener hole and engaged with the housing.

A method and apparatus for distributing a liquid substance to a surface for purposes of creating an overlay to a repair or reinforce and enhance the physical properties of the surface. The invention may include a system having a pair of holding tanks for holding a resin and a hardener, a pair of fluid pumps, a manifold, a mixing chamber and an aggregate hopper. An overlay substance may be formed by the system by mixing the resin and hardener, and the substance may be dispensed through a linear distribution apparatus onto a surface in need of repair or improvement.
