The present disclosure refers to a road construction machine in the form of a road finisher or a feeder vehicle with a chassis and a driver's cab with a vehicle roof. According to the disclosure, one or more luggage nets are attached to the vehicle roof of the road construction machine.

A road construction machine in the form of a road finisher or feeder vehicle comprising an operator stand with a floor surface as a tread surface and a cooling system for producing a mist from a cooling agent. The cooling system comprises a tank for receiving the cooling agent and a spray apparatus for nebulizing the cooling agent into a mist. The cooling system is configured to produce the mist in the area of the operator stand, and the spray apparatus is arranged thereby at a height of at least 1.7 m above the tread surface.

A road construction machine in the form of a road paver or a feeder vehicle for conveying paving material to a road paver, the road construction machine being self-propelled and having a primary drive source, a hopper, at least one working unit and at least one electric consumer for heating the working unit, the road construction machine having an energy supply system with at least one electrical energy storage which can be charged by means of electric current generated outside the road construction machine and is present on the road construction machine as an internal power source for direct current supply to the electric consumer. Furthermore, the disclosure relates to the use of such an energy storage for direct current supply to an electric consumer of a road construction machine.

The invention relates to a road paver or a feeder having a chassis driven by a drive unit, and a material hopper arranged in the working direction at the front of the road paver or the feeder, the material hopper having a hopper side wall extending in the working direction and a discharge flap tiltable about a pivot axis extending transversely to the working direction, the discharge flap comprising a flap base and a flap side wall which extends next to the hopper side wall and is fixed to the flap base and supported to be moveable relative to the hopper side wall, a protective cover, which at least partially engages around the edge of the flap side wall, being arranged on the hopper side wall.

The disclosure relates to a road paver with a paving screed with an adjustable height for installing a road surface layer and at least one holding device for carrying and positioning of at least one sensor unit, wherein the holding device has at least one swivel arm module for fastening the holding device on the road paver, at least one carrier arm module and at least one sensor module comprising the sensor unit, wherein the carrier arm module is fastened by means of a first clamping device on the swivel arm module and the sensor module by means of a second clamping device on the carrier arm module, and wherein the first and the second clamping device are formed respectively for a predetermined clamping force when the respective clamping devices are in a closed position.

A system including a first feeder configured to transport asphalt, a second feeder configured to receive the asphalt from the first feeder, and a controller configured to control a speed of the first feeder and the second feeder in response to an input from an operator.

The present invention relates to an intermediate storage vehicle, particularly a construction vehicle, having an intermediate storage tank for receiving bulk material, particularly milled material, and a first material delivery conveyor device for delivery, unloading or transfer of the bulk material, the first material delivery conveyor device including a material delivery point, via which the bulk material can be thrown off. The present invention further relates to a milling train having such an intermediate storage vehicle and to a method for milling a road surface.

A system for controlling an engagement of a material supply machine with a paving machine is provided. The system includes one or more sensor(s) mounted on material supply machine and/or the paving machine and are configured to detect a position and distance of paving machine with respect to material supply machine. The sensor(s) further detect a relative speed between the two machines. A controller autonomously controls speed of material supply machine based on detected relative speed when distance is less than threshold. The speed of material supply machine is controlled to match speed of the paving machine. The controller also autonomously controls steering of material supply machine based on detected position of leading end of paving machine to align material supply machine with leading end of paving machine until the material supply machine engages with leading end of paving machine.

A road working machine includes an operator's station that is adapted to be occupied by an operator of the road working machine. The road working machine also includes a controller and a safety light circuit that is operatively attached to the controller. The safety light circuit includes a plurality of downwardly directed safety lights that are located so as to provide lighted egress from the operator's station.

The present invention provides improved paving vehicles for following a supply truck for use in paving asphalt roadways. The paving vehicles of the present invention need not be transported on a trailer, and are capable of traveling at low or relatively high speeds on their own. This is accomplished through the use of novel chassis and propulsion systems having two rear axles, with each axle coupled directly to its own hydraulic motor, such that each of the two hydraulic motors provides power to one axle. Embodiments of the invention also include reciprocating conveyor apparatus and methods, such that the conveyor apparatus may be moved to a lowered position to receive the gravity discharge of materials from a hopper and supply truck during a paving operation, and moved to a raised position in order to provide a wide margin of ground clearance when driving the paving vehicle, or loading or unloading the paving vehicle from a trailer.
