  • Publication number: 20230295890
    Abstract: A wheel assembly for a soil compactor comprises a plurality of wheels (20) mounted in succession on a main wheel carrier (24) in the direction of an operating wheel axis of rotation (B), wherein at least one third wheel, which is arranged between a first wheel and a second wheel in the direction of the operating wheel axis of rotation (B), forms an auxiliary assembly wheel (205) and is mounted on the main wheel carrier (24) by means of an auxiliary wheel carrier (34), wherein the auxiliary wheel carrier (34) is firmly coupled to the main wheel carrier (24) in an auxiliary wheel operating state and is pivotable about a pivot axis and displaceable in the direction of the pivot axis in relation to the main wheel carrier (24) in an auxiliary wheel assembly state.

  • Patent number: 9777443
    Abstract: In a self-propelling road construction machine, particularly a road roller (1), comprising a travel drive, a steering device, a control device (30) for the travel drive and the steering device, and a driver's seat (5) rotatable by at least 180° and including an integrated operating element (8) for the vehicle speed, with the operating element (8) generating the control signals for the travel drive in dependence on the direction of the control movement of the operating element (8) or the direction of force application on the operating element (8), it is provided that, in response to a first switching command, the control device (30) will automatically perform a reversing process comprising deceleration, seat rotation, change of direction of travel, and acceleration to the set vehicle speed in opposite direction to the original direction of travel.

  • Patent number: 4183043
    Abstract: The disclosure is an improvement in a three-line sequential transmission system for a color television signal, particularly for recording, and where the sequential signal is transformed again, during reproduction with a series-connection of line delay lines, into three simultaneous color signals, and a luminance signal is obtained by composing the signals from several successive lines. In accordance with the disclosure, the luminance signal has an amplitude ratio between these signals, to increase the picture sharpness in the vertical direction, such that the amount of the luminance transmission function of the entire system, including recording and reproduction, at the frequencies (n+1/2)f.sub.H is substantially equal to those of the frequencies n.multidot.f.sub.H where n=0, 1, 2 . . . and f.sub.H is the line frequency. The composition is effected such that zeros appear in the low frequency range of the transmission function at the frequencies (n.+-.1/3)f.sub.
