RUBBER-TIRE ROLLER FOR COMPACTING A GROUND AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING A SPRINKLER SYSTEM OF A RUBBER-TIRE ROLLER
A rubber-tired roller for the compaction of a ground, in particular for asphalt compaction, with a machine frame, a drive engine, a chassis driven by said drive engine with a front chassis part and a rear chassis part, at least one chassis part comprising at least two tires with running surfaces, which are arranged next to one another, at least one sprinkler system for the tires of the chassis part, which is configured to apply a liquid separating agent to the running surfaces of the tires, and a control unit for controlling the sprinkler system, wherein a temperature sensor is provided which is configured and arranged such that it determines the temperature of at least one tire, in particular the running surface of said tire. The invention moreover relates to a method for controlling a sprinkler system of such a rubber-tired roller.
SOIL PROCESSING ROLLER FOR A SOIL PROCESSING MACHINE
A soil processing roller for a soil processing machine, in particular a soil compactor, comprises a roller shell (24) which is elongated in the direction of a roller axis of rotation (W) and surrounds the roller axis of rotation (W), two disk-like support elements (28, 30) arranged at a distance from one another in the direction of the roller axis of rotation (W) and connected to an inner side (26) of the roller shell (24), and a circumferential wall (32) extending in the direction of the roller axis of rotation (W) between the support elements (28, 30) and adjoining the same, wherein an inner surface (34) of the circumferential wall (32) together with the support elements (28, 30) delimits a lubricant receiving volume (36), wherein in at least one of the support elements (28, 30) at least one lubricant drain opening (56) is provided, which is open to the lubricant receiving volume (36), wherein at least one lubricant collecting volume (58) is formed in the lubricant receiving volume (36), wherein the at least one lubricant collecting volume (58) can be emptied via a lubricant drain opening (56) that is open to the same. In order to provide the lubricant collecting volume (58), the inner surface (34) of the circumferential wall (32) has a radial distance (R) from the roller axis of rotation (W) that increases in the direction of the roller axis of rotation (W) towards the lubricant drain opening (56) which is open to the at least one lubricant collecting volume (58),
Stress concentrator for an angled scraper
A scraper used with a compactor wheel assembly includes an attachment portion, a scraping portion that forms a first oblique angle with the attachment portion, and a transition portion connecting the scraping portion to the attachment portion. The transition portion defines a stress concentrator for allowing the scraper to break before any structure to which the scraper is attached is damaged.
Fluid spray system timing control
In some implementations, a controller may receive an input that indicates a proportion of a spray cycle in which a fluid spray system is to be active. The fluid spray system may include at least a first fluid pump configured to supply fluid to a first fluid spray bar and a second fluid pump configured to supply fluid to a second fluid spray bar. The controller may determine, in accordance with the proportion, a spraying timing for the first fluid pump and the second fluid pump that minimizes an overlap of an active time of the first fluid pump and an active time of the second fluid pump, and/or an overlap of an inactive time of the first fluid pump and an inactive time of the second fluid pump. The controller may cause activation of the first fluid pump and the second fluid pump in accordance with the spraying timing.
Road Paver With Viewing Indentation In Material Container
The present invention relates to a road paver for paving paving material in a paving direction (a), comprising a machine frame, a driver's platform, a drive motor, a chassis with at least a left travel unit and a right travel unit, a material container arranged at the front of the road paver in the paving direction (a) for receiving paving material, the material container comprising a left container half and a right container half, which each have a container floor, a rising container sidewall and a rising container rear wall, and a longitudinal conveying device configured to transport paving material from the material container to a paving screed arranged at the rear of the road paver in the paving direction, wherein the container halves can be moved out of a filling position in order to move the paving material onto the longitudinal conveying device, wherein at least one container half has a viewing indentation, which extends from the container rear wall to the container floor in such a way that the ground can be viewed by the operator on the driver's platform through the viewing indentation.
Soil compactor and method for compacting substrates
A soil compactor comprises at least one compacting roller (18, 22) rotatable about an axis of rotation, a temperature detecting device (42) for providing temperature information representing a temperature of a substrate (U.sub.1, U.sub.2, U.sub.3) in the area of the soil compactor (10), a sprinkling device (24, 28) assigned to at least one compacting roller (18, 22) for sprinkling this compacting roller (18, 22) with fluid, and a control device (40) for controlling at least one sprinkling device (24, 28) and/or for generating a sprinkling indicator on the basis of the temperature information.
SCRAPER FOR CLEANING DRUM SURFACE OF COMPACTOR
A scraper coupled to a drum surface of a compactor is provided. The scraper includes an inlet port. The scraper includes a first channel fluidly coupled to the inlet port. The first channel extends across the scraper in a first direction. The scraper includes at least one second channel fluidly coupled to the first channel. The second channel extends across the scraper in a second direction. The scraper further includes at least one outlet port fluidly coupled to the second channel.
Device for cleaning the drum surface of asphalt compactors
A device for cleaning a drum surface of an asphalt compactor. The device has a first and a second brackets fixed to a body of the compactor, a first supporting arm pivotably connected to the first bracket, a second supporting arm pivotably connected to the second bracket, a roller shaft supported by the supporting arms and is parallel to the rotation axis of the drum, a roller wiper mounted to the roller shaft and is extending along the width of the drum, contacting the surface of the drum.
