Abstract: Off-road work machines (e.g., forestry machines) and unloading such machines are described. A forestry machine includes a load space for a timber load, a boom structure, and a wood-handling tool attached to the boom structure. The method includes defining and noting down the location of the timber pile, calculating and noting down the location of the edge of the timber pile, picking a timber bundle from the timber load by the wood-handling tool, calculating the distance of the end justified on a load screen of the edge of the timber bundle from the wood-handling tool, calculating an unloading location for the timber bundle in the defined location of the timber pile, and controlling and unloading the timber bundle into the timber pile in the calculated unloading location such that one edge of the timber pile becomes even and straight.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method in a forest machine. In the method the surroundings of the forest machine are observed using one or more sensors. The observations are assembled to form a database of the surroundings, and the database is utilized in the operation of the forest machine. In the method observations of a limited area are used. In addition, a database is formed in real time in the forest machine. Further, a view is formed from the database of selected observations, from which a track in the surroundings is recognized. The forest machine is then oriented in the direction of the track, once the forest machine's direction of travel relative to the recognized track has been recognized. The invention also relates to a system in a forest machine.

Abstract: An assembly for enabling rotational motion in a vehicle or mobile working machine is disclosed which includes at least two sections arranged in an overlying position relative to the vehicle's or working machine's working surface. A top section can be led to motion relative to a bottom section and a longitudinal rotation axis, the top section and the bottom section being movably coupled to each other by at least one trajectory element which generates a curvilinear trajectory. The relative motion of the top section and the bottom section proceeds along a curvilinear trajectory in a section plane which is perpendicular relative to the lengthwise rotation axis. The trajectory can be at least partly in the shape of a circular arc, the midpoint of this curvilinear trajectory being disposed below the bottom section. An actuator mounted on the vehicle or working machine affects the top section and/or the bottom section.

The guide includes opposite slide guides with opposite sliding and mating surfaces that form a form-locking joint joining the fastening arrangement and turning frame together. This type of separate slide guide arranged in the chain saw is movable in at least one direction differing from the direction of travel allowed by the guide, which makes it possible to modify clearance between the sliding surface and mating surface.
