Abstract: A self-propelled substrate milling machine includes a machine frame supported by front and rear left-hand and right-hand running gear units, wherein a milling drum is arranged on the machine frame. The substrate milling machine is characterized by a transverse inclination sensor system, which is designed to control the substrate milling machine in such a way that the position of the front left-hand and right-hand running gear units which stand on the unmachined substrate, is detected with respect to the machine frame, and transverse inclination values describing the transverse inclination of the substrate surface transverse to the working direction of the substrate milling machine with respect to the machine frame is determined from the position of these running gear units, said transverse inclination values being the basis for the control of the substrate milling machine. The transverse inclination sensor system detects the transverse inclination of the course of the route.

Abstract: A self-propelled construction machine includes a machine frame and an operating drum arranged in a drum housing which is open downwards and is closed on both sides by an edge protector which is adjustable in height. A control assembly determines a reference value for the height of the ground surface relative to the machine frame on which the edge protector rests in a floating position, the height of the edge protector relative to the machine frame and the lowering speed of the edge protector. Furthermore, the control assembly is configured such that the height of the edge protector relative to the machine frame is determined at the point in time at which the lowering speed of the edge protector is less than a specified limit value. Preferred embodiments of the machine furthermore detect the edge protector sinking into the ground, and/or prevent the edge protector from digging into the ground.

Abstract: A self-propelled construction machine has a machine frame and an operating drum for processing the ground surface, wherein the operating drum is positioned in a downwards open drum housing, that is closed on both sides by an edge protector, which is adjustable in height by an actuator for raising and/or lowering the edge protector. A control unit comprises a sensor for registering the distance a between a reference point on the edge protector and the ground surface. Furthermore, the control unit is configured so that when the distance between reference point and ground surface falls below a predetermined minimum distance, the actuator is switched from a floating setting, so that the edge protector is raised. As a result, the edge protector tightly closes the drum housing at the sides without there being a risk that the edge protector can be entrenched in loose substrate.
