Lane-Stripe Pattern-Change Mechanism

Caption: On an automated system that places reflective road pavement markers (RPM), a lane-stripe pattern-change mechanism is mounted on a lift mechanism and carriage. The pattern-change mechanism, which accommodates two placement mechanisms, has one placement mechanism attached in this photo. The placement mechanism is connected to the RPM hoppers by a telescoping slide.
