  • Publication number: 20250019911
    Abstract: A road paver for producing a pavement layer made of a paving material conveyable in a direction opposite to a paving direction of travel of the road paver to a transverse distributor assembly and distributable by way of the transverse distributor assembly transverse to the paving direction of travel substantially over a working width of a screed. The road paver comprises an exchangeable component configured to contact the paving material at least during operation of the road paver, an attachment unit for the attachment of the exchangeable component to a work assembly or to a chassis of the road paver, and a wear protection for the attachment unit. The wear protection comprises a sacrificial body for mounting onto the attachment unit and/or a protective body with a protective section which is formed to be ramp-shaped or curved at least in sections to guide the paving material over the attachment unit.

  • Publication number: 20240301634
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method for dynamically controlling a paving speed of at least one road paver for a paving process, wherein by a control system functionally connected to the road paver, a paving speed for the road paver adapted to the determined material delivery rate is determined as a function of a variable material delivery rate of a material supply chain supplying the road paver with paving material determined thereby, wherein a pre-compaction performance of at least one pre-compaction element of a paving screed of the road paver is adjusted as a function of the determined paving speed in order to keep a pre-compaction achieved by the pre-compaction element constant. Furthermore, the disclosure relates to a road construction system for a paving process for producing a constant pre-compaction at varying paving speed.

  • Publication number: 20240229372
    Abstract: A road paver comprises a paving screed, a bearing block arrangement and a distributing auger. The bearing block arrangement comprises a bearing block, a cover and a heating device. The distributing auger is rotatably mounted at the bearing block for distributing paving material. The heating device is received in an accommodation space of the bearing block arrangement. The bearing block arrangement is configured to be selectively brought into a working configuration and into a removal configuration, wherein the heating device is removable from the accommodation space in the removal configuration, but not in the working configuration. At least a base part of the cover is connected to the bearing block both in the working configuration and in the removal configuration. In the working configuration, the base part of the cover at least partially covers the heating device towards a front with respect to a paving direction of the road paver.
