  • Patent number: 5725325
    Abstract: Disclosed are laying planks (11) which allow a variation of the working width of the road finisher and are comprised of a main plank and two displacement planks (13) disposed displaceably on opposite ends of the main plank. For a more precise guidance and more stable mounting of the displacement planks (13) on the main plank, it is known to arrange intermediate slides (14) between the main plank and the displacement plank (13). However, these intermediate slides (14) do not allow a full extension of the displacement planks (13) relative to the main plank. According to the invention, the intermediate slides (14) have guide rods (26, 27) which project from outer end face plates (20) of the intermediate slides (14). As a result, the displacement planks (13) can be extended beyond the region of the main plank over their entire width.

  • Patent number: 5165820
    Abstract: Compaction plank for a road-finishing machine for incorporating and compacting freshly laid roadmaking material (3), preferably having a variable effective width. To this end, the compaction plank preferably comprises a main plank and laterally extendable adjusting planks. It also has a base plate (2, 18) for flattening the roadmaking material (3) associated with one or more bar-shaped, driven stampers (5, 6). Two stampers (5, 6) are provided, namely a front stamper (5) arranged in front of the base plate (2, 18) in the direction of travel (4) of the road-finishing machine and a rear stamper (6) arranged between the elements of the base plate (2, 18). The stampers (5, 6) are preferably interconnected by a two-armed lever (7), each stamper (5, 6) being connected with one of the two lever arms (7a, 7b), and the lever (7) can be driven so as to oscillate about its bearing point (8).
