Abstract: A device for detecting the temperature of an asphalt material to be processed by a road finishing machine includes at least one temperature measuring head, the at least one temperature measuring head being integrated into an ultrasonic sensor for detecting the filling level of the asphalt material.
Abstract: An apparatus for determining an elevation of a working tool relative to a reference plane, includes a rotary laser system, a radio unit and a detector. The rotary laser system emits a rotating laser beam in a plane inclined relative to the reference plane. The radio unit is configured to measure a distance between the working tool and the rotary laser system and the detector is mounted on the working tool for detecting the laser beam. The elevation of the working tool can be determined on a basis of the inclination angle and the distance between the working tool and the rotary laser system.
