Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a system for determining process data of a work process carried out by an implement based on the determination of a moved mass by a weighing system of the implement and the detection of a parameter concerning a state of the implement and/or a work step, wherein with reference to these and further data a prediction value concerning the remaining part of the current work process is determined and on the basis of which information on the assistance is indicated to the operator of the implement, and to an implement comprising such a system.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a system for determining the mass of a payload moved by a working device of a machine, comprising: a lifting-gear element that is movable along a path and is designed to move the working device; a sensor system that is designed to provide a plurality of machine-status signals which indicate a status of the machine; a force sensor system that is designed to provide a lifting-force signal that indicates a force on the lifting-gear element; and a control device that is designed: to use system parameters for load determination that originate from pre-configured CAD data, preferably CAD data that has been pre-configured at the factory, and/or from continuous calibration of system parameters; to carry out calibration using the pre-configured parameters as initialisation if unsatisfactory results are achieved; to carry out the calibration in an unloaded state, i.e.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method for monitoring and/or performing a movement of an item of machinery wherein the item of machinery comprises a movement device with a tool for picking up material, which comprises at least two components, each of which is movable via at least one actuator, and a control system by means of which the actuators of the movement device can be actuated by way of open-loop and/or closed-loop control. The method according to the disclosure comprises (i) detecting status information of at least two components, (ii) calculating torques that are applied to components, (iii) detecting torques actually applied to components, (iv) comparing the calculated and detected torques and determining a force vector actually applied, and (v) executing an action depending on the calculated force vector. The disclosure also relates to an item of machinery and a computer program product for executing the method.

Abstract: The application relates to a method for an automatic movement of a working device that comprises a control and at least two components movable independently of one another by means of a respective one actuator controllable by the control. The control has a learning mode and a work through mode, wherein the working device is automatically traveled from a first position into a second position by a corresponding control of the actuators in the work through mode. In the learning mode, the control detects data relating to the individual movements of the components during a movement of the working device and stores them, with the control of the actuators taking place during the automatic movement on the basis of these data in the work through mode. A parameter of the automatic movement is settable by the operator. The application further relates to a working device carrying out of the method application.

Abstract: A folding staircase for track-bound vehicles comprises a base ladder part, movably carried in the vehicle, and a swinging ladder part hingedly carried by the base ladder part. The base ladder part is movable between a stowed position and an extended position whereat it extends from the vehicle generally in the direction of travel. The swinging ladder part is rotatable between a first position, whereat it overlies the base ladder part, and a second position, whereat it extends from the distal end of the base ladder part to the track. Devices are provided for displacing the base ladder portion from the stowed position to the extended position and for displacing the swinging ladder part from the first position to the second position.
