The disclosure relates to a construction machine with a paving screed to install a road surface, whereby the construction machine is a self-propelled road paver and comprises at least one power line for power supply of at least one electric consumer of the paving screed and whereby the construction machine contains a network for data transmission between at least one sender integrated in the network and at least one receiver integrated in the network. Furthermore, according to the disclosure, at least one section of the power line is integrated in the network and configured for data transmission between the sender and the receiver.

A screed assembly for an asphalt paving machine includes a lower screed plate, an upper screed plate and a heating element that is in contact with the lower screed plate. The screed assembly also includes a compression bolt assembly having a primary bolt, a compression bolt and a compression spring. The primary bolt has a through hole, and the compression bolt is adapted to be inserted through the hole of the primary bolt. The compression spring is adapted to be placed over the lower end of the primary bolt, so that the compression bolt assembly may cooperate with the upper screed plate to apply a compression force to the heating element on the lower screed plate.

A road finisher includes a screed plate extending at right angles to the working direction of the road finisher, a tamper bar disposed rearwardly and/or forwardly of the screed plate in the working direction, wherein at least one electrically operated heating element is configured to heat up a heating surface facing a road subsurface, the heating element comprising a heating layer at least partially obtained through thermal spraying onto a substrate surface, and a piston rod with connecting means to a tamper bar drive. The tamper bar is connected to the piston rod with an upper surface of the tamper bar contacting a lower surface of the piston rod, wherein the piston rod is single-pieced with regard to its connecting means and its lower surface, and the heating layer is located between the piston rod and the tamper bar, especially applied to the lower surface of the piston rod.

A road building machine for laying asphalt with a control switch (40) which is interconnected in an emergency stop circuitry (100), wherein said control switch is arranged at the paver outside from a detachable second control panel (120), wherein said control switch (40) is connected in a functional parallel electrical arrangement with a second electric emergency stop switch (20) if the detachable second control panel (120) is electrically connected to an electronic control circuit, wherein said control switch (40) is actuated by a switch function activated by said electrical coupling of said detachable second control panel (120) to said electronic control circuit such that if said detachable second control panel (120) is electrically connected to said electronic control circuit, said control switch (40) is actuated to be open, such that the emergency stop circuitry (100) is closed or open via said first or said second electric emergency stop switch (10, 20).

A heating hood is operable to be advanced along a length of bituminous pavement to recycle at least part of the bituminous pavement. The heating hood includes a plurality of burners operable to combust a fuel so that each burner produces a heated exhaust stream. A lower margin of the heating hood is operable to discharge the heated exhaust streams onto the pavement, with the heated exhaust streams discharged from the lower discharge margin having no visible flame.

A paving screed for a road paver that comprises a screed plate, a heating element and a fastening device for pressing the heating element onto the screed plate. The fastening device comprises an actuating member and an elastic element. The actuating member is configured to deflect through its operation the elastic element directly or indirectly by a predetermined amount, wherein the elastic element applies a predetermined force directly or indirectly onto the heating element and biases the heating element against the screed plate.

A screed assembly for an asphalt paving machine includes a lower screed plate, an upper screed plate and a heating element that is in contact with the lower screed plate. The screed assembly also includes a compression bolt assembly having a primary bolt, a compression bolt and a compression spring. The primary bolt has a through hole, and the compression bolt is adapted to be inserted through the hole of the primary bolt. The compression spring is adapted to be placed over the lower end of the primary bolt, so that the compression bolt assembly may cooperate with the upper screed plate to apply a compression force to the heating element on the lower screed plate.

A system and a method for monitoring a condition of a paving machine. The system includes a screed plate and a heating element for heating the screed plate. The system also includes a controller configured to determine a heat-up time for the screed plate and compare the heat-up time to a predetermined time. The controller is further configured to provide a signal indicating that the screed plate needs to be replaced if the heat-up time is less than or equal to the predetermined time.

A pavement repair system is provided utilizing solid phase auto regenerative cohesion and homogenization by liquid asphalt oligopolymerization technologies. The system is suitable for use in repairing asphalt pavement, including pavement exhibiting a high degree of deterioration (as manifested in the presence of potholes, cracks, ruts, or the like) as well as pavement that has been subject to previous repair and may comprise a substantial amount of dirt and other debris (e.g., chipped road paint or other damaged or disturbed surfacing materials). A system utilizing homogenization by liquid asphalt oligopolymerization is suitable for rejuvenating or repairing aged asphalt, thereby improving properties of the paving material.
