Title: Innovations by Adil H Attar in Reflective Pavement Markers
Introduction
Adil H Attar is an accomplished inventor based in Ontario, CA (US). He has made significant contributions to the field of reflective pavement markers, holding a total of 15 patents. His innovative designs focus on improving visibility and durability in road safety applications.
Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is for a unitary body for a reflective pavement marker. This improved reflective pavement marker features a unitary hollow structural body molded in situ around at least one pre-formed retro-reflective lens plate. The design includes a base surface that is partially sealed with a compatible sheet and features multiple protruded grooves. An alternative structural body design incorporates a sealed base surface with both protruded and recessed grooves, along with an inclined face designed to receive a pre-formed lens plate attachment. The planar base surface of this unitary structural body includes impact-absorbing hollow cavities that extend along the sides of the inclined reflective faces, incorporating multiple protruded rectangular grooves. Additionally, the structural body can utilize various pigmentations or luminescent colorant compounds, such as thioxanthene dyes or phosphorescent pigments like strontium, to enhance day and night visibility when illuminated by ultraviolet light.
Another notable patent by Attar is a method and apparatus for making reflective pavement markers. This invention provides a one-piece, polymeric raised reflective pavement marker. The apparatus includes a polished cavity segment with an inclined angular disposition relative to the mold base's horizontal and vertical surfaces. The core segment mirrors this inclination and features polished top portions that can be integrally formed using electroformed molding to emboss precision patterns of prismatic or micro-prismatic cube corner reflective elements. The embossing process and subsequent forming of the monolithically made reflective marker are based on accurately positioning the cavity and core segments within a base mounted in an injection molding machine.
