Definitions

  • the invention herein pertains to markers for pavement and particularly pertains to pavement marking patterns.
  • thermoplastic pavement markings with various patterns and designs to guide, decorate and protect high traffic areas such as highways, pedestrian crosswalks, parking lots and business entrances.
  • a typical, conventional pavement marking pattern as set forth in PCT application US/03/03156 ( WO 03/064771 A1 ) consists of a preformed planar thermoplastic sheet or strip having a thickness of approximately 0.01" (2.5 mm). The width of these patterns varies with the purpose of the marking.
  • Such patterns may include a first section or grid, for example to represent the mortar Joints in a "brick" design and a plurality of second sections or "bricks" which are coplanar therewith, usually in a color different from the mortar color.
  • the second section or bricks which are separately manufactured are inserted into the first section or grid before application of the pattern to the pavement.
  • Various such two section marking patterns are commonly available such as: herringbone, standard brick, cobblestone, paving slabs and many other designs. Marking patterns with more than two sections are also commonly available such as horizontal highway and street signage, logos and many others. As hereinbefore mentioned, these marking patterns consist of two or more independent sections which must be carefully assembled and handled before applying to pavements such as asphalt, concrete or other suitable substrates. These marking patterns are placed at desired locations such as road crosswalks, Intersections, parking lots or other sites. In some cases heat is then applied to soften the pavement marking pattern causing it to firmly adhere to the substrate. Various adhesives can also be used to adhere the marking pattern to the substrate.
  • US - BA-6576074 discloses a pasement marking pattern comprising letters which engage and are surrounded by a background layer to form a continuous marker.
  • spot adhesives have been used which remain somewhat “tacky” after being applied two the bottom of the patterns at the grid intersections to maintain pattern integrity.
  • spot adhesives are generally a different type of polymer than the marking pattern and can prevent proper attachment and easy movement of the marking pattern on the substrate at the spot adhesive locations before and during the heat application of the marking.
  • certain spot adhesives are not compatible with the plastic materials from which the patterns are formed and can cause the pavement marking sections to separate from the substrate after the heat application, as only a weak bond is formed with the substrate.
  • the present invention was conceived and one of its objectives is to provide an improved pavement marking pattern in which the pattern sections are properly connected during handling and installation on a selected substrate.
  • the aforesaid and other objectives are realized by providing a conventional pavement marking pattern formed of a thermosetting or thermoplastic having two or more sections, manually joined by bridging the bottom surface thereof with an adhesive having substantially the same temperature softening point as the sections of the marking pattern.
  • the adhesive is sprayed primarily along the intersections of the pattern to cover a percentage (approximately 5-90%) of the pattern bottom surface area while bridging the intersections.
  • the spray adhesive can be a typical polyamide, EVA based hot melt adhesive or other and preferably consists of a hot melt polyamide resin based adhesive which is sprayed in a circular or spiral string like configuration at a temperature at or above its softening point.
  • the sprayed hot adhesive strikes the marking pattern and adheres, bridging and bonding the pattern sections to maintain pattern integrity during subsequent handling.
  • Uni-Rez 2633 as sold by Arizona Chemical Company of P.O. Box 550850, Jacksonville, Florida 32225 is the main ingredient in the preferred hot melt adhesive.
  • the preferred hot melt adhesive is formulated with Uni-Rez 2633, ester modified rosins, fillers, extenders, levelers and other conventional components.
  • a pavement marking pattern such as a brick and mortar pattern
  • various sections of a pavement marking pattern are factory assembled and while in assembled form, the bottom of the pattern is sprayed with the hot melt adhesive described above using preferably spray gun model: Hysol-175-spray as manufactured by Loctite Corporation of 1001 Trout Brook Crossing, Rocky Hill, Connecticut 06067, having various pressures and nozzle settings to select from, depending on the viscosity of the particular adhesive employed.
  • a circular or spiral string-like adhesive configuration is preferred for the spray.
  • the grid and inserts are suitably bridged and joined and the pavement marking pattern is packaged for shipment.
  • the packages are opened and after the intended substrate, usually asphalt or concrete is properly cleaned and swept, the marking pattern is then placed on the substrate without concern of disassembly during handling, movement and adjustment.
  • a heat application is delivered from a conventional source which softens the marking pattern and the underlying sprayed adhesive, both of which have the approximate same temperature softening point to thereby affix the pavement marking pattern to the substrate. Time and labor are thereby saved as the marking pattern sections have been adhered to form a unified pattern by the hot melt adhesive.
  • Fig. 1 illustrates a typical partial decorative pavement marking pattern 10 for application to concrete, asphalt or other suitable substrates.
  • Marking pattern 10 is a brick and mortar pattern used herein for illustration purposes but as would be understood various other thermosetting and thermoplastic patterns are commercially available such as 90° herringbone, cobblestone, pavement slabs, horizontal signage, logos and other designs.
  • many colors are available for the pavement marking patterns, typically different sections of each pattern are of different colors, such as a "light” grid or mortar color and a "darker" brick or insert color.
  • the marking patterns typically consist of two or more sections.
  • Preferred marking pattern 10 shown for demonstration purposes consists of two separate thermoplastic sections, first section 11 represents a grid or mortar joint and second section 12 represents a brick or insert. Sections 11 and 12 are generally formed independent of each other due to the differences in color. Pavement marking pattern 10 is planar and is conventionally formed from a standard thermoplastic.
  • marking pattern 10 has been conventionally formed and assembled as shown in Fig. 2 , with bottom 15 of marking pattern 10 facing upwardly, the preferred method steps of the invention are as follows:
  • Marking pattern 10 is now ready for the adhesive application as seen in Fig. 3 whereby preferably Loctite spray gun 20 receives adhesive 25 which is forced or pumped from tank 21 through conduit 22. Adhesive 25 is then sprayed by using compressed air which passes through hose 26 and directed onto bottom 15 of marking pattern 10. Adhesive 25 is a hot melt polyamide resin based adhesive, preferably composed from Uni-Rez 2633 available from Arizona Chemical, delivered at an elevated temperature of approximately 127°-210°C in a semi-solid condition thereby forming spiral strings 27 on marking pattern bottom 15.
  • strings 27 bridge across first grid section 11, intersections 18 and second insert sections 12. Upon cooling to room temperature strings 27 harden and bond first section 11 and second section 12 forming unified marking pattern 10A.
  • the area covered by adhesive strings 27 may range from 5-90% of the total marking pattern bottom 15 surface area, depending on the complexity of the particular pattern design.
  • Fig. 5 the bottom of preferred unified marking pattern 10A is shown with an approximate 30% adhesive area coverage which is preferred for this marking pattern.
  • marking pattern 10A having adhesive strings 27 bonded thereto is first unrolled or positioned onto cleaned and swept asphalt or concrete 30. Once unrolled or positioned, marking pattern 10A is then moved and shifted for precise placement without fear of pattern disassembly. After suitable placement, marking pattern 10A is then heated with conventional heat torch 35, shown schematically in Fig. 7 whereupon marking pattern 10A and adhesive strings 27 are softened due to their similar or approximate softening points thus resulting in a secure, permanent adherence of marking pattern 10A to asphalt 30.
  • the preferred softening point range for both adhesive strings 27 and marker pattern section 11 and 12 is 90°-120°C although other thermoplastic materials may be used having different softening points. Additional marking patterns 10A are subsequently similarly applied as necessary for the desired coverage of the particular substrate.
  • thermosetting resins could also be used but are not preferred such as epoxies or other organic oligomeric or polymeric materials.
  • thermosetting adhesive would require a high molecular weight to generate a melt viscosity sufficient to function as a "string spray" adhesive as described above.
  • melt viscosity would range from approximately 500 to 100,000cps with a preferred range of 1500-2000cps. as are commercially available.
