Provided is a construction vehicle including: a rolling-use hydraulic pump coupled to an output shaft of an engine and supplying hydraulic oil to a rolling-use hydraulic circuit; a task-use hydraulic pump coupled to the output shaft of the engine and supplying the hydraulic oil to a task-use hydraulic circuit; and an overspeed suppression mechanism configured to activate the task-use hydraulic pump to suppress overspeed of the engine when a load equal to or greater than allowable rotation speed is applied from the rolling-use hydraulic pump to the output shaft of the engine.

An adjustment mechanism for a vibratory mechanism of a surface compaction machine, the adjustment mechanism includes a torque limiter coupled between the first eccentric shaft and the second eccentric shaft that prevents relative rotation between the shafts and a phase adjustment between the shafts when a net torque applied to the torque limiter is less than a locking torque threshold. Application of a net torque to the torque limiter that is greater than or equal to the locking torque threshold causes the first eccentric shaft to rotate with respect to the second eccentric shaft. An actuator subassembly selectively applies a linear force cause a first torque to be applied the first eccentric shaft sufficient to apply a net torque to the torque limiter that is greater than or equal to the locking torque threshold to cause the first eccentric shaft to rotate with respect to the second eccentric shaft.

The present invention relates to a compacting roller (1) comprising a roller drum arrangement (3) comprising a first roller drum (9) and a second roller drum (11) arranged next to each other, a drive arrangement (13) comprising a first drive unit (15) arranged to rotate said first roller drum (9) and a second drive unit arranged to rotate said second roller drum (11), and a power supply (39). The compacting roller by further comprises a frame (5) which is connected to said roller drum arrangement (3), wherein said power supply (39) is attached to said frame (5) outside each of the first roller drum (9) and the second roller drum (11), and an electronic balancing system (43) for maintaining the compacting roller (1) in an upright position during operation.
