  • Patent number: 9863247
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a ground milling machine, in particular a road milling machine, a recycler, a stabilizer or a surface miner, comprising a milling drum with a milling drum width (a) extending along its rotational axis and with at least two chiseling devices, each of which comprises a chisel and a chisel holder, and a sensor device for determining wear on the at least two chiseling devices in a contactless manner, said sensor device comprising a sensor for measuring a wear parameter of the at least two chiseling devices, the sensor being movable at least over a part of the milling drum width (a) in order to set an identical measurement angle (?) and an identical position of the sensor relative to the at least two chiseling devices in order to measure the wear parameter of the at least two chiseling devices. The present invention further relates to a method for determining wear on the at least two chiseling devices of the ground milling machine in a contactless manner.

  • Patent number: 9562334
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for controlling a loading process of a transport vehicle by a milling device in milling operation, a device for implementing this method and a road milling machine or a device for the removal of soil material with such a device. One aspect of the present invention, according to one embodiment, is a sensor device by means of which the position and partially also the fill level of the transport container of the transport vehicle can be determined.

  • Patent number: 8977442
    Abstract: A civil engineering machine includes an arrangement for assisting the driver of the machine when reversing which has a calculating unit to determine data which defines at least one trajectory of the civil engineering machine as a function of the position of the front and rear running gear, both as a function of a steering angle and as a function of a mode of steering. The arrangement for assisting the driver of the machine when reversing also has an image detecting unit for detecting an image of the rear part of the civil engineering machine and a display unit for displaying the detected image of the rear part of the civil engineering machine. An image processing unit superimposes a representation of the at least one trajectory on the image of the rear part of the civil engineering machine which is displayed on the display unit.
