  • Patent number: 11692821
    Abstract: An inclination sensor system for a mobile work machine includes a MEMS inclination sensor and a further inclination sensor of a different type and a fusion device. The inclination sensor is configured to output a first inclination signal on the basis of an inclination that exists at the inclination sensor. The further inclination sensor is configured to output a second inclination signal on the basis of the inclination that exists at the further inclination sensor. The fusion device is configured to calculate a corrected inclination signal on the basis of the first and second inclination signals and to output same as the corrected inclination signal.

  • Publication number: 20210181354
    Abstract: A measurement system for a construction machine, in particular a road construction machine including a temperature measuring device and an evaluation device. The temperature measuring device is configured to determine a first surface temperature for a first area of a measuring field as well as a second surface temperature for a second area of the measuring field, the temperature measuring device being directed to a reference surface, in relation to which the construction machine is moving, and the measuring field being shifted as a function of a movement of the construction machine along the reference surface. The evaluation device is configured to determine a movement parameter by means of a shift in a first temperature zone, defined for a first point in time by the first surface temperature within the first area, in relation to the first and/or second area(s) or in relation to the measuring field.

  • Patent number: 10473637
    Abstract: A device for determining the temperature of a road building material applied by a construction machine in a mounting width is arranged at the construction machine in a range within the mounting width and has an infrared temperature measuring head, a motor and a controller, the infrared temperature measuring head being arranged to be twistable by the motor transverse to the direction of travel of the construction machine and being effective to record temperature measuring values of the surface of road building material during a rotational movement at at least two measuring points spaced apart from one another. The controller is effective to control the motor based on the fitting position of the device at the construction machine such that the distance between the measuring points on the surface to be measured remains equal.

  • Patent number: 10184838
    Abstract: A device for determining the temperature of a road building material applied by a construction machine in a placement width includes an infrared temperature measuring head, a motor and a controller. The infrared temperature measuring head is arranged to be twistable by the motor in a manner transverse to the direction of travel of the construction machine so as to scan the surface of the road building material to capture temperature measuring values of the surface of road building material during a rotational movement at a plurality of measuring points spaced apart from one another. The controller is configured to set a scanning speed as a function of a position of the measuring point.

  • Patent number: 10112520
    Abstract: A temperature measuring device includes a temperature sensor, arranged within a holder, for determining the temperature of a building material located within a skip of a transport vehicle, the skip including an inner wall and an outer wall, and the holder being arranged on that side of the inner skip wall that faces the outer skip wall. The holder is arranged within a recess within the inner skip wall such that it is thermally insulated from the inner skip wall. The holder is arranged within the recess such that a region, which faces the interior of the skip, of the holder is exposed.
