<p>In order to lay-out a stripe on a road surface (14) in an economic and practical manner, the stripe can consist of individual blobs (15) of stripe material. By supplying the material (6) via a slot to a position through which slats (4, 5, 18) on a rotating brush pass during the turning of the brush, each slat carries with it a blob of the material which it throws down on the road surface. Both flexible as well as stiff slats can be used in accordance with requirements. By providing the slats (18) with a U-shaped section, one can throw out larger blobs at a relatively high speed of rotation, and thus blobs can be laid-out at speeds right up to around 50 km per hour. In order to render the laying-out independent of the rate of advance of the apparatus, one can couple a motor (19) which can turn the axle, and thereby the brush, independently of the normal driving via a driving wheel (1, 16).</p> |
