Abstract: An extension screed is for a paving vehicle screed assembly that includes a main screed. The extension screed includes two base members movably connectable with the main screed and two vertical actuators each extending between the main screed and a separate base member. Each vertical actuator linearly displaces the connected base member with respect to the main screed in opposing vertical directions. A carriage preferably includes an inner frame movably connected with the base members and an outer frame slidably disposed about the inner frame and configured to support a screed plate. The vertical actuators vertically displace the carriage and alternatively pivot the carriage within a vertical plane. Further, a first horizontal actuator displaces the inner frame with respect to the two base members in opposing horizontal directions and a second horizontal actuator displaces the outer fame with respect to the inner frame in opposing horizontal directions.

Abstract: An edger assembly is for a paving vehicle screed for forming a paving material mat upon a base surface. The edger assembly includes a support connectable with the screed and an edger member having a contact surface contactable with the base surface. An actuator has an upper end coupled with the edger member and a lower end coupled with the support, the upper end being displaceable with respect to the lower end to vertically displace the edger member relative to the base surface. The actuator preferably includes two threaded blocks coupled with the support and two rotatable rods each coupled with the edger member and engaged with one block. Rotation of the rods vertically displaces the rods with respect to the support to displace the edger member. Preferably, a biasing member is disposed about each rod and biases the edger member in a direction generally toward the base surface.
