This ordinal sum is indexed by a totally ordered residuated lattice, which serves as its skeleton and is both a subalgebra and nuclear image. We equationally characterize the totally ordered residuated lattices appearing as such skeletons. Further, we describe both congruence and subalgebra generation in conic idempotent residuated lattices, proving that every variety generated by these enjoys the congruence extension property.
