Patent ID: 7591605

Claim:
A modular vehicle traffic calming device comprising at least two substantially rectangular traffic calming modules, each module having an upper face, a ground-engaging face, at least one first side face and at least one second side face that is perpendicular to the at least one first side face, adjacent ones of the modules being removably interconnected through adjacent ones of the first side faces or through adjacent ones of the second side faces, the adjacent first side faces including complementary interlocking connectors forming a detachable connection resisting detachment when a first pulling force moving the adjacent first side faces away from each other is applied perpendicularly thereto, the adjacent second side faces including complementary non-interlocking connectors forming a detachable connection resisting detachment when a sliding force is applied along the adjacent second side faces and allowing detachment when a second pulling force moving the adjacent second side faces away from each other is applied perpendicularly thereto.
