Publication number: 20250092617Abstract: A limiting plate assembly for a road paver includes a limiting plate, swiveling device, and locking device. The limiting plate is attached to a component of the road paver via the swiveling device. The limiting plate is rotatable about the swiveling device between a minimum limiting plate position and a maximum limiting plate position. The locking device is adapted to adopt a first locking position and a second locking position. The locking device is adapted, in the first locking position, to block the rotation of the limiting plate about the swiveling device in the direction of the minimum limiting plate position, when the limiting plate is in a first limiting plate position and, in the second locking position, to block the rotation of the limiting plate about the swiveling device in the direction of the maximum limiting plate position, when the limiting plate is in a second limiting plate position.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 18, 2024Publication date: March 20, 2025Applicant: JOSEPH VĂ–GELE AGInventors: Thomas SEITHER, Maximilian THEOBALD, Marco NICOLINI
