Wouter,
The great Motzkin himself classified - and named - a great many objects
like the ones you are studying. Take a look at his classic paper
%H A000522 T. S. Motzkin, <a href="/A000262/a000262.pdf">Sorting numbers
for cylinders and other classification numbers</a>, in Combinatorics, Proc.
Symp. Pure Math. 19, AMS, 1971, pp. 167-176. [Annotated, scanned copy]
Best regards
Neil
