A compacting roll for a soil compactor includes a roll shell concentrically surrounding a roll rotational axis, a roll inner space and two oscillatory arrangements, at least partially arranged within the roll inner space, for generating the oscillating torque impinging on the roll shell with respect to the roll rotational axis, whereat each oscillatory arrangement includes at least two oscillation mass units that are rotatable around the respective oscillation rotational axis and at least one oscillation drive motor to serve exclusively for driving the oscillation mass units of this oscillatory arrangement. The oscillation mass units of different oscillatory arrangements can be offset from each other in the direction of the roll rotation axis.

The present invention provides a motor apparatus having a motor, comprising: a fan that is rotatably supported by a shaft member of the motor, and sends, in a centrifugal direction by rotation, gas taken from an axial direction of the shaft member; and a cover member that covers the fan so as to allow the gas sent in the centrifugal direction from the fan to flow along an outer surface of the motor, wherein the cover member has a blowout port that blows out some of the gas sent in the centrifugal direction from the fan in the centrifugal direction to cool an external mechanism of the motor apparatus.

A hydraulic fluid system is provided for a work implement having a support plate, the work implement being provided on a machine having an auxiliary hydraulic fluid supply line and an auxiliary hydraulic fluid return line. The hydraulic fluid system includes a motor having an inlet port and an outlet port, and a mounting plate coupled to the support plate of the implement. The mounting plate further defines a supply conduit configured to fluidly communicate between the auxiliary hydraulic fluid supply line and the inlet port of the motor, and a return conduit fluidly communicating between the outlet port of the motor and the auxiliary hydraulic fluid return line. A kit and a method for retrofitting a hydraulic fluid system are also disclosed.

A soil compactor is described. The soil compactor includes at least two vibrating compacting rollers rotatable about a respective roller axis of rotation. The soil compactor further includes a vibration excitation arrangement assigned to each vibrating compacting roller of the at least two vibrating compacting rollers for generating a vibrating movement of the at least two vibrating compacting rollers. The soil compactor also includes a sensor arrangement assigned to the soil compactor for providing a feedback signal indicative of sound or a structural vibration of the soil compactor. The soil compactor yet further includes a control unit receiving the feedback signal for controlling at least one vibration excitation arrangement, based on the feedback signal, such as to act on a phase offset of the vibrating movements of the at least two vibrating compacting rollers with respect to one another.

An apparatus for compaction of soil and asphalt includes a first mass, such as a compaction drum, or vibrating plate, a second mass configured to oscillate vertically and an unbalanced shaft configured to vibrate the first and second masses. Wherein removable masses can be added and removed from the second mass, in order to enable resonance vibration of the first and second masses, thereby doubling and even tripling the compaction forces applied to the surface being compacted.
