摘要： A pavement marker comprising a base member and a signal device for sending a light signal to a driver of an oncoming vehicle further includes a longitudinally extending tire directing hood member that directs tire contact away from the upper edge, upper portion, and upper generally corner portions of the signal device front face, while allowing tire contact with the lower portion of the signal device front face. The signal device front face is at a predetermined recess depth in said pavement marker, and is at a predetermined angle with respect to the roadway surface. The marker can be either a snowplowable marker or a sun country marker. The signal device optionally can be mounted on a base member by a mechanical interlock. Optional drainage channels can be provided in the base member to allow drainage of fluid from in front of the lower portion of the signal device.

摘要： A fastening apparatus for installing a ribet which includes a hollow rivet body and a mandrel, the apparatus including, a means for imparting rotational movement to a drill bit; a housing borne by the rotation means and which includes an internal operating cavity, the housing operable to support the rivet; a driving assembly borne by the housing and disposed in force receiving relation relative to the drill bit; a locking assembly borne by the housing and operable to move along a predetermined path of travel from a first unlocked position to a second locked position; and a riveting assembly positioned in the internal cavity and disposed in force receiving relation relative to the locking assembly. During operation, the riveting assembly engages the mandrel of the rivet body when the locking assembly is positioned in the second locked position and wherein rotation of the drill bit causes the riveting assembly, in combination with the driving assembly, to forcibly withdraw the mandrel from the rivet body until the mandrel separates from the rivet body, thereby completing the riveting process.
