Abstract
A reflective pavement marker comprises an integrally molded one-piece structural body and at least one reflective plate attachment, said structural body having two opposing planar inclined reflective faces, multiple hollow cavities which are defined by partitioning and load carrying walls with wedge shaped top surfaces, said hollow cavities open within a recessed portion of said reflective faces, two arcuate sides and integrally sealed planar base surface with textures and recessed grooves. The reflective plates are welded within the periphery of said recessed portion that includes wedge shaped top surfaces of the hollow cavity walls. This marker provides to enhance the reflective cell sizes, improved impact resistance and improve resistance to flexural stresses due to automobiles impact forces; this is accomplished by maximizing the base surface area for adhesive wetting parameter. The body can be made of various recycled or virgin structural plastics with high impact resistance and UV stability.
