Patent Images
1. An arcuate tactile sidewalk tile arrangement comprising:
- a connector tactile sidewalk tile including a wedge-shaped main body with first and second connector flanges adjoining opposite sides of the wedge-shaped main body;
a first rectilinear tactile sidewalk tile overlapping the first connector flange such that at least a portion of the first rectilinear tactile sidewalk tile is positioned directly above the first connector flange in a vertical direction;
a second rectilinear tactile sidewalk tile overlapping the second connector flange such that at least a portion of the second rectilinear tactile sidewalk tile is positioned directly above the second connector flange in the vertical direction;
a plurality of truncated domes projecting upwardly in the vertical direction from an upper surface of the wedge-shaped main body, an upper surface of the first rectilinear tactile sidewalk tile, and an upper surface of the second rectilinear tactile sidewalk tile.
