Tire skirt support assembly for compactor
A tire skirt support assembly for a compactor comprising a bracket and one or more skirt support members. The bracket can be oriented horizontally, and each skirt support member can have a body that is elongate with a first end and a second end opposite the first end. For each said skirt support member, the first end can be fixed to the bracket, and the second end can be below the bracket and is a free end configured to removably engage a skirt via an attachment opening in the skirt.
System and method for machine control
A method includes receiving information indicative of a first worksite plan, determining a travel path extending along a work surface, causing a mobile machine to traverse the travel path, and receiving first sensor information associated with the work surface from a sensor of the mobile machine. The method also includes generating a second worksite plan based at least partly on the first sensor information, and providing instructions to a slave machine which, when executed by a controller of the slave machine, cause the controller of the slave machine to control the slave machine to perform at least part of the second worksite plan. The method further includes receiving second sensor information determined by the sensor of the mobile machine, and generating at least one of a safety metric and an accuracy metric based at least partly on the second sensor information.
Overload support system for a paving machine screed assembly
A screed assembly, for a paving machine, may include a frame, a main screed and a screed plate. Additionally, the screed assembly may include an overload support system mounted on the screed assembly. Further, the overload support system may be configured to contact the surface extending beneath the screed assembly and to support the screed assembly during transport on the surface.

ROLLER ASSEMBLY FOR SMOOTHING GRANULAR MEDIA
A roller assembly for smoothing an expanse of granular media such as golf bunker sand, snow, horse race track dirt, or other media. The assembly has one or more rollers having a longitudinal axis. Each roller includes wires spaced from the axis to define a roller surface. Each wire is resiliently flexible to distort inwardly in response to force of contact on, and to recover during release of force from, the granular media as the roller rotates about the axis on the granular media. A shaft extends along the axis of the roller assembly between the arms of a yoke with a handle extending therefrom. As the roller surface traverses the media, at least some of the media is flung outwardly of the roller, smoothing the expanse. The roller assembly may be manually operated or may be towed behind a towing apparatus.

ROLLER TOOL FOR A SOIL PROCESSING ROLLER
A roller tool for a soil processing roller includes a tool carrier to be fixed to an outer circumferential side of a carrier jacket and has a tethering area for fixedly tethering the tool carrier to an outer circumferential surface of the carrier jacket and an interchangeable holder clamping region, an interchangeable tool having an interchangeable tool shank elongated in the direction of a shank longitudinal axis, an interchangeable holder having an interchangeable holder opening elongated in the direction of an opening longitudinal axis for receiving the interchangeable tool shank of the interchangeable tool to be detachably fixed to the interchangeable holder and with an interchangeable holder counter-clamping region. The interchangeable holder counter-clamping region is brought into clamping interaction with the interchangeable holder clamping region for detachably fixing the interchangeable holder to the tool carrier. A clamping member is supported for generating the clamping interaction with respect to the tool carrier and the interchangeable holder.
ROLLER TOOL FOR A SOIL PROCESSING ROLLER
A roller tool for a soil processing roller of a soil processing machine incudes a tool holder to be fixed on an outer peripheral side of a carrier casing. The tool holder has an attachment region for fixed attachment on an outer peripheral surface of the carrier casing and a tool holder opening elongated in the direction of an opening longitudinal axis for accommodating a replaceable tool shaft of a replaceable tool to be detachably fixed on the tool holder. The tool holder includes a first tool holder part, wherein the attachment region is provided completely on the first tool holder part, and a second tool holder part to be detachably attached to the first tool holder part. The second tool holder part, together with the first tool holder part, delimits the tool holder opening in the circumferential direction around the opening longitudinal axis.
