  • Reflective lane marker
    Patent number: 6045294
    Abstract: The invention provides a lane marker comprising an elongate housing having a top portion length shorter than the base portion length, the ends of the housing tapering from the end of the base portion up to the end of the top portion such that a part of the ends of the base portion are open to the top. A vertical reflector is secured inside the reflector end of the housing, between the top portion and the base portion and a horizontal reflector is secured on the base portion of the reflector end of the housing. The tapered design reduces damage to the marker and to tires, and exposes mounting holes in the base portion which are easily accessible from the top.
