A soil processing machine, in particular a soil compactor, includes at least one drive roller and an electrohydraulic drive system for driving at least one drive roller. The drive system has a traction hydraulic circuit having at least one hydraulic motor and at least one hydraulic pump. The circuit includes a first line region between a first connection fitting of the at least one hydraulic pump and a first connection fitting of each hydraulic motor to drive the at least one drive roller in a first rotatable direction and a second line region between a second connection fitting of the at least one hydraulic pump and a second connection fitting of each hydraulic motor to drive the at least one drive roller in a second, opposite rotatable direction. A valve assembly is provided with each line region for selectively interrupting and releasing a fluid flow connection between the at least one hydraulic pump and at least one hydraulic motor.

A method for operating a beacon light of a machine is described. The method includes activating, by a processing unit, the beacon light based on a signal to indicate an operational state of the machine. The signal corresponds to one or more machine parameters in the operational state of the machine.

An autonomous stability control system may include a sensing system configured to collect position and orientation data about a work machine on a construction site and a controller. The controller may be configured to receive or generate a work path plan, operate the work machine according to the work path plan, continually or periodically monitor the orientation data from the sensing system, compare the orientation data to a vibration slope threshold, and, when the orientation data exceeds the vibration slope threshold, deactivate a vibration system of the work machine.

A ground processing machine includes a rear carriage with an internal combustion engine, respectively at least one drive wheel to both sides of the internal combustion engine, a driver cabin arranged offset relative to the internal combustion engine in the longitudinal direction of the machine, a fuel tank for fuel to be supplied to the internal combustion engine, an additive substance tank, and a hydraulic fluid tank. The additive substance tank is arranged following a drive wheel in the longitudinal machine direction, and next to the drive wheel in a transversal machine direction.

An electronic control unit for a compactor obtains a planned operating profile of the compactor, generates a predicted power expenditure schedule for the compactor based on the planned operating profile, determines, based on the predicted power expenditure schedule, that a predicted energy expenditure of the compactor exceeds an available energy of the compactor, generates a modified operating profile in response to determining that the predicted energy expenditure of the compactor exceeds the available energy of the compactor, and operates the compactor according to the modified operating profile.

The present invention relates to a magnetic quick mounting unit for construction machines, particularly road pavers, having a positioning mark configured for permanent attachment to a construction machine, an attachment device which can be magnetically attached on the positioning mark, an alignment mark arranged on the attachment device and indicating the alignment of the attachment device, and an alignment aid arranged on the positioning mark, the alignment mark and the alignment aid being configured such that the alignment of the attachment device relative to the construction machine can be read from the relative position of the alignment mark to the alignment aid when the attachment device has been attached on the positioning mark. The present invention further relates to a method for magnetic quick-mounting of an attachment device, particularly a camera, to a construction machine, particularly a road paver, comprising the steps of: attaching a positioning mark with an alignment aid on the construction machine; attaching an alignment mark on the attachment device; magnetically attaching the attachment device on the positioning mark; and aligning the attachment device by means of the relative positions of the alignment aid and the alignment mark. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a construction machine having such a magnetic quick mounting unit.

A tank mounted into an enclosure with insulated sides is assembled into an engine compartment of a construction machine. A fan is coupled to the enclosure to draw air through the enclosure to cool a fluid in the tank, such as diesel exhaust fluid. A discharge pipe is used to exhaust the air from the enclosure external to the engine compartment.

The present invention relates to a method and device for controlling a vehicle, more particularly, the power train of a compacting machine for earth moving operations, comprising a hydraulic travel pump and a hydraulic travel motor. Control is effected according to a specified control profile when a specified driving operation is to be carried out in that an adjustment of the travel pump is carried out which is independent of the rotational speed of the internal combustion engine. This makes it possible to retain, on the one hand, the rotational speed of the internal combustion engine in the case of abrupt stops of movement or changes in the direction of movement and, on the other hand, to adapt the rotational speed of the engine in the case of somewhat longer uninterrupted pauses between two changes in the traveling behavior, wherein comparatively large fluctuations in the rotational speed are avoided.
