Abstract: The invention concerns an embedded-type reflective road marker (10) comprising a generally convex shell (12) and base (14) which is mated with a lower edge of the shell to form an internal chamber. The shell is of moulded plastics material and includes at least one moulded plastics reflector (36) which forms an integral part of the shell to reflect light cast onto the marker in use.

Abstract: A first aspect of the invention concerns a corner packaging device (14) which can be used in the packaging of a polygonal pack (10) of stacked glass sheets. The device includes two identical packaging members (12) each having a facing element (16) to lie against an outer surface of the pack at a corner and a pair of transverse flanges (22) meeting one another at a corner (24) of the facing element so as in use to lie against adjacent edges of the pack. There is a projection (28) lying generally in the plane of each flange and extending beyond the inner edge (26) of the flange and a recess (30) extending into the flange from that inner edge. With this arrangement, the packaging members can be arranged with their facing elements lying against opposite surfaces of the pack, with their flanges extending towards one another and with the projection of one flange extending over an edge of the pack to be received slidably within the recess of the other flange over a range of different pack thicknesses.

Abstract: A reflective road marker (10, 48) to be mounted on a road surface to indicate the position of traffic control lines on that surface. The road marker has a base (14, 62) which can be secured to the road surface by adhesive. An resilient support (20, 50) is secured to the base and supports light reflectors (24, 68) at an acute angle to the road surface. The support allows the reflectors to be deflected resiliently towards the base in response to passage of a vehicle tyre over the road marker. To prevent damage to the reflectors means is provided to prevent ingress of solid particles between the reflector and the base. In the preferred embodiment, the support is provided by a hollow diaphragm of a resilient material.
