Patent number: 11733791Abstract: An operating arrangement for a construction machine comprises an operating device which comprises a touch-sensitive display for inputting operating instructions by an operator, and an operating mask with localization markers. The operating device comprises at least a first alignment feature for aligning the operating mask on the operating device in a pre-defined operating position relative to the operating device. The operating mask is detachably attached to the operating device in the operating position, wherein the operating mask at least partially covers the touch-sensitive display, and wherein the location markers of the operating mask lie over specified areas of the display and facilitate locating the specified areas of the display for inputting instructions.Type: GrantFiled: February 27, 2019Date of Patent: August 22, 2023Assignee: JOSEPH VOEGELE AGInventors: Frank Grimm, Dennis Hanfland

Patent number: 11653759Abstract: The disclosure refers to a container for storing and providing at least one modular road paver assembly designed for detachable mounting on a road paver. The container comprises a storage system by means of which individual components of the road paver assembly can be positioned within the container in a standardized arrangement, such that the components of the road paver assembly can be checked for completeness by an operator by means of a visual inspection along a sequence determined between opposite boundaries of the container in view of their assembly sequence on the road paver.Type: GrantFiled: January 25, 2022Date of Patent: May 23, 2023Assignee: JOSEPH VOEGELE AGInventors: Ingo Herzberg, Dennis Hanfland, Jens Holfelder, Christian Jenewein

Publication number: 20220064874Abstract: A method is provided for adjusting a temperature of a screed plate of a paving screed of a road paver, wherein the paving screed comprises a heating element for heating the screed plate. The method may include measuring temperature of the screed plate over a time interval using a temperature sensor, and adjusting a target temperature of the heating element, depending on a time profile of the temperature of the screed plate, using a control unit of the road paver.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 25, 2021Publication date: March 3, 2022Applicant: JOSEPH VOEGELE AGInventors: Martin BUSCHMANN, Roman MUNZ, Ralf WEISER, Dennis HANFLAND

Patent number: 9033611Abstract: Road paver with a towing machine and a movable screed and with a measuring device that is provided for determining a layer thickness of a road pavement that has been newly laid by the screed. The measuring device is formed to determine the layer thickness at an intended location, seen relative to a direction of travel, behind a rear edge of the screed, whereby the measuring device is provided on the road paver such that the layer thickness can be determined independently of a geometric shape and/or a movement of the screed.Type: GrantFiled: June 15, 2012Date of Patent: May 19, 2015Assignee: JOSEPH VOGELE AGInventors: Dennis Hanfland, Ralf Weiser

Patent number: 8702344Abstract: A road paver with a layer thickness measuring device which comprises a plurality of sensors in order to measure a distance to the subgrade or to the road pavement. The layer thickness measuring device is mounted rotatably on the road paver or on its screed, whereby the layer thickness measuring device has an equilibrium position at a stipulated angle to the horizontal that it retains or to which it returns even if the inclination of the road paver or of the screed to the horizontal changes.Type: GrantFiled: June 15, 2012Date of Patent: April 22, 2014Assignee: Joseph Vogele AGInventor: Dennis Hanfland

Patent number: 8696237Abstract: A road paver with a movable screed and with a layer thickness measuring device, which includes at least two sensors. The sensors are formed to carry out a distance measurement to the paving plane at intervals to determine a distance between the sensor and a point on the surface of the plane, said point being registered by the sensor. One of the two sensors defines a coordinate system. The layer thickness measuring device is formed to add as vectors the distance to the plane measured by the sensor that defines the coordinate system and a movement, relative to the plane and resulting from the driving of the road paver, of the coordinate system that is defined by the one sensor. In this way, a first vector can be determined which, together with a second vector, is used by the measuring device for determining the layer thickness of the laying material.Type: GrantFiled: June 15, 2012Date of Patent: April 15, 2014Assignee: Joseph Vogele AGInventors: Dennis Hanfland, Ralf Weiser
