Definitions
- the present invention relates to a road finisher according to claim 1 and a method for stepless tamper stroke adjustment on a road finisher according to claim 15.
- EP 3 138 961 B1 discloses a road finisher whose screed has a tamper stroke adjustment device.
- the tamper stroke adjustment device has an adjustment gear that is provided between an eccentric shaft that can be driven in rotation and an eccentric bushing that is rotatably mounted on the eccentric shaft. The stroke of the tamper bar is adjusted by twisting the eccentric bushing on the eccentric shaft.
- EP 3 138 961 B1 also discloses an adjusting gear that is provided between the rotationally drivable eccentric shaft and an eccentric bushing mounted in a rotationally fixed manner on the eccentric shaft, the eccentric bushing being displaced transversely to the eccentric shaft via the adjusting gear to adjust the tamper stroke of the tamper strip.
- EP 3 138 961 B1 a variator having a toggle mechanism.
- adjusting the eccentric stroke during operation of the road finisher represents a technical challenge. This is particularly due to the fact that it is difficult to control or actuate the adjusting gear mounted directly on the eccentric shaft, between the eccentric bushing and the eccentric shaft.
- the toggle lever mechanism is structurally rather complex and takes up a lot of space on the screed.
- US 8,371,770 B1 discloses a screed with a tamper stroke adjustment device, which has a threaded rod and a threaded bushing mounted displaceably thereon. An axial adjustment of the threaded bushing along the threaded rod moves a lever arm mounted on the threaded bushing, the position and alignment of which is dependent on the tamper stroke setting on the screed of the road finisher.
- EP 1 905 899 A2 discloses a screed for a road finisher, on which a tamper stroke adjustment device is mounted.
- the tamper stroke adjustment device comprises a bearing block for an eccentric shaft, which is mounted so that it can be displaced horizontally along a guide carriage and on which an eccentric bushing is mounted in a rotationally fixed manner.
- EP 2 599 918 A1 discloses a method and a device for adjusting an upper reversal point of a tamper bar of a road finisher.
- EP 2 599 919 A1 discloses another device for adjusting the stroke of a tamper bar of a road finisher.
- the object of the invention is to provide a road finisher with a tamper stroke adjustment device and a method for stepless tamper stroke adjustment on a road finisher, whereby the tamper stroke can be adjusted precisely and steplessly, especially during paving operation, using simple constructive technical means, in particular using fewer assemblies of the road finisher.
- the invention relates to a road finisher with a screed for producing a paving layer, wherein the screed has at least one compacting unit for pre-compacting a paving material fed to the screed, and wherein the compacting unit has at least one eccentric bushing, which is rotatably mounted to a desired angle of rotation on an eccentric shaft carrying it , in order thereby to steplessly set a desired tamper stroke of a tamper strip of the compression unit.
- an adjustment mechanism that is mounted at a distance from the eccentric shaft and rotates at least partially with a rotational movement of the eccentric shaft can be controlled. Since in the case of the invention, despite its spaced position from the eccentric shaft, a self-rotating adjusting mechanism controls the eccentric bushing rotating along with the eccentric shaft for adjusting the tamper stroke, there are several advantages in total, as described below.
- the eccentric bushing on the eccentric shaft i.e. the respective eccentricities of these two components
- the phase adjustment is advantageously controllable, in particular with little effort, by means of the adjusting mechanism which is spaced apart from the eccentric shaft and primarily rotates with the speed of the eccentric shaft itself.
- the co-rotating adjustment mechanism can be controlled at least briefly in such a way that the torque driving it on its input side or the speed present there on its output side, on which it provides a coupling to the eccentric bushing, is exceeded or exceeded is stocky.
- the eccentric bushing coupled to the adjusting mechanism and rotating on the eccentric shaft can be "braked” or “accelerated” relative to the rotational movement of the eccentric shaft according to the transmission ratio controlled by the adjusting mechanism, whereby the eccentric bushing rotates relative to the eccentric shaft into a new angular position, i.e. the the phase adjustment controlled by the adjustment mechanism.
- the eccentric bush rotates at the same speed as the eccentric shaft, i.e. together with it with a constant phase angle.
- co-rotating means that the adjustment mechanism or at least a portion of the components provided thereon rotates together with the eccentric shaft, although mounted at a distance from it, during operation of the compression unit.
- This assembly rotating with the eccentric shaft can be sensitively controlled with little effort for the phase adjustment described above, i.e. a change in the angular position of the eccentric bushing positioned on the eccentric shaft, i.e. to vary the tamper stroke.
- the adjustment mechanism positioned at a distance from the eccentric shaft can be controlled more precisely.
- the tamper stroke adjustment can be carried out better automatically using such a co-rotating adjustment mechanism.
- the adjustment mechanism can be in the form of a hydraulic and/or electromechanical phase adjustment system, for example.
- the desired tamper stroke adjustment preferably comes about as the sum of the individual eccentricities of the eccentric shaft and the eccentric bushing mounted so as to be rotatable thereon.
- a phase angle set in between can be changed in a fast-reacting and very precise manner by means of the co-rotating adjustment mechanism, in particular if this is designed as an electromechanical phase adjuster.
- the adjustment mechanism can be excellently controlled for a phase adjustment between its drive and its driven side.
- the adjustment mechanism used in the invention advantageously builds on existing components or assemblies of the screed in a compact manner, so that a large number of identical parts is possible even on different screed types. Due to its location at a distance from the eccentric shaft, the eccentric shaft itself can be of simpler construction.
- the adjusting mechanism can preferably be driven in rotation at least partially by the eccentric shaft, there is an overall advantageous balance of forces for adjusting the tamper stroke for the phase adjustment that can be adjusted on it. This in turn means that the adjustment mechanism can be automated more easily, which means that a better paving result is possible using the road finisher.
- the adjustment mechanism comprises at least one adjustment drive driven in rotation by the rotational movement of the eccentric shaft as such and controllable for turning the eccentric bushing and/or at least one adjustment gear drive driven in rotation by the rotational movement of the eccentric shaft and controllable for turning the eccentric bushing.
- the rotational movement of the eccentric shaft is generally the cause of the rotation of the adjusting drive and/or the adjusting gear.
- the adjusting drive and/or the adjusting gear is integrated into a drive train branched off from the eccentric shaft, in the power flow of which the adjusting drive and/or the adjusting gear is integrated in a rotating manner.
- a sensitive variation of the angle of rotation between the eccentric bushing and the eccentric shaft is achieved here by actuating the adjusting drive and/or the adjusting gear with little effort.
- the phase shift angle of the adjusting drive and/or adjusting gear rotating along in the power flow can be set more easily as a result.
- the adjusting mechanism is thus better able to turn the eccentric bushing relative to the eccentric shaft to any desired tamper stroke setting during ongoing paving operation, i.e. to set the tamper stroke between a minimum and a maximum tamper stroke value.
- the adjusting drive and the adjusting gear jointly form a co-rotating functional unit.
- the functional unit is then in the form of a modular phase adjuster, which is mounted to rotate with the eccentric shaft at the same speed as the eccentric shaft, with the adjusting drive being able to control the adjusting gear for a desired phase adjustment, so that the eccentric bushing rotates in response to the eccentric shaft to vary the tamper stroke.
- the rotating eccentric shaft can function as an actuator for the co-rotating adjusting drive coupled to it and/or the co-rotating adjusting gear, with the co-rotating adjusting drive and/or the co-rotating Adjusting gear as such is also controlled in addition to their rotation.
- the torque picked off by the eccentric shaft can be changed at least briefly in the drive train branched off from the eccentric shaft by means of the adjusting drive and/or the adjusting gear driven in rotation therein in order to set the desired phase shift angle, so that the resulting forces decelerate or accelerate the eccentric bushing on the eccentric shaft, i.e. twist it.
- the eccentric shaft preferably serves both to drive the tamper strip and can also function as a drive shaft for the co-rotating adjusting drive and/or the co-rotating adjusting gear, so to speak fulfills a double function, an adjusting force, possibly acting from the outside, can arise the adjusting drive and/or the adjusting gear for turning the eccentric bushing can be significantly reduced.
- the components used for adjusting the tamper stroke can also be structurally reduced, with the result that manufacturing costs can be reduced.
- the torque which is preferably continuously tapped off from the eccentric shaft during paving operation, can be manipulated in the branched-off power flow using the co-rotating adjustment drive and/or the co-rotating adjusting gear arranged therein in such a way that an adjustment movement of the eccentric bushing on the eccentric shaft rotating by means of the drive speed is possible without any problems and without a large additional force input is.
- the eccentric bushing is rotated relative to the rotational movement of the eccentric shaft in or counter to a direction of rotation of the eccentric shaft until the eccentric bushing assumes a desired angular position on the eccentric shaft that is shifted from its starting position.
- the co-rotating adjusting drive and/or the co-rotating adjusting gear can preferably be controlled to adjust a rotation angle of a machine element rotatably mounted on the eccentric shaft.
- the machine element enables the adjustment drive and/or the adjustment gear to be coupled in a structurally simple manner to the eccentric shaft mounted eccentric bush.
- the machine element can for example be in the form of a toothed wheel or a pulley for a synchronous belt.
- One embodiment provides that the machine element itself forms the eccentric bushing or is connected to the eccentric bushing by means of a positive coupling, for example by means of a claw coupling.
- the former alternative results in an assembly with a reduced part count.
- the second alternative can be advantageous for service and/or repair measures.
- At least one additional machine element is provided, which is designed to transmit a rotary motion of the eccentric shaft to the adjusting drive and/or the adjusting gear.
- the further machine element is preferably mounted in a rotationally fixed manner on the eccentric shaft. This is preferably a toothed wheel or a pulley for a synchronous belt.
- a complementary coupling element for example in the form of a gear wheel or a belt pulley for the synchronous belt, can be mounted non-rotatably on the adjustment drive and/or on the adjustment gear, for example on a gear housing of the adjustment gear or on a housing of the adjustment drive.
- the motion or forces can be transmitted from the eccentric shaft to the adjustment mechanism by means of the additional machine element.
- the first machine element has assumed the desired angular position, ie the target tamper stroke has been set, the aforementioned separate activation of the rotary-driven adjustment mechanism is terminated.
- An actual angle of rotation between the eccentric bushing and the eccentric shaft that is thus set on the compression unit can then be easily detected by means of suitable sensors.
- the adjustment mechanism which rotates continuously during the operation of the compression unit, can be controlled again for a subsequently desired phase adjustment, so that a new switching moment occurs on its output side coupled to the eccentric bushing compared to its drive side.
- the machine elements described above for coupling the eccentric shaft to the adjusting mechanism and for coupling the same to the eccentric bushing can be in the form of gearwheels, belt pulleys and/or sprockets and thus form standardized, primarily cost-effective machine components.
- the adjusting drive and/or the adjusting gear makes sense for the adjusting drive and/or the adjusting gear to be driven in rotation at the same speed as the eccentric shaft during operation of the compression unit.
- gear wheels/chain wheels or belt pulleys of the same dimensions are used for this purpose in the drive train between the eccentric shaft and the adjustment mechanism that is driven in rotation with it.
- the adjusting drive and/or the adjusting gear can have a different speed than the eccentric shaft.
- a desired tamper stroke can be achieved in that there is the same translation between the eccentric shaft and the adjusting gear and between the adjusting gear and the eccentric bushing.
- the eccentric shaft and the adjusting shaft on which the adjusting gear is mounted can have different speeds; the eccentric shaft and the eccentric bushing do not.
- the adjusting drive and/or the adjusting gear can be actuated hydraulically, electrically and/or mechanically. Above all, large adjusting forces could be generated by means of a hydraulic adjusting drive and/or adjusting gear.
- An electrical or electromechanical adjustment mechanism would allow the tamper stroke to be adjusted with shorter reaction times, i.e. independently of a hydraulic temperature.
- the adjusting gear is preferably a continuously adjustable mechanical, hydrostatic or electric gear.
- the adjusting gear can preferably be controlled to set a desired transmission ratio by means of a mechanical, hydraulic or electric drive that is already present on the screed, i.e. by means of a drive that is also used to operate another working component of the screed. This further contributes to a reduction in the number of components or assemblies used.
- the adjusting drive has a controllable servo motor and/or a servo motor is provided for the adjusting gear.
- the servomotor together with the adjusting gear can form a functional unit rotating with the eccentric shaft, the servomotor being controllable for a desired phase adjustment in such a way that it changes the power flow transmitted to the eccentric bushing via the adjusting mechanism rotating with it through the adjusting gear connected to it.
- the eccentric bushing rotates on the eccentric shaft to the desired angular position.
- the adjusting mechanism is preferably designed as a cam mechanism and/or has a pair of rotating deflection rollers.
- the adjustment gear can be designed to be particularly robust.
- the cam mechanism it is conceivable for the cam mechanism to have two cam disks which are mounted so as to be adjustable in relation to one another and can be displaced linearly and/or rotationally in relation to one another. A movement of the cam discs relative to each other can cause the deflection rollers mounted thereon to be adjusted along curved paths formed thereon, which results in a phase adjustment.
- the adjustment mechanism provides at least one stationary cam and at least one movably mounted cam for shifting the deflection rollers mounted thereon and rotating in the power flow. This is mounted on the stationary cam disk for translational and/or rotational displacement, in order thereby to set a displacement of the axes of rotation of the deflection rollers that rotate along for a phase adjustment.
- the pair of rotating deflection rollers for rotating the eccentric bushing is mounted on the eccentric shaft so as to be displaceable transversely to the eccentric shaft, i.e. transversely to its axis of rotation.
- the co-rotating deflection rollers can be mounted adjacent to a toothed belt or a drive chain, which is connected to the machine element mounted rotatably on the eccentric shaft.
- the two co-rotating deflection rollers can be rotatably mounted with respect to mutually spaced, parallel mounted axes of rotation.
- a change in the positioning of the co-rotating deflection rollers in particular a change in the distance between the axes of rotation, can be used to influence the phase adjustment angle, based on which the eccentric bushing lies on the eccentric shaft.
- a translational displacement of the deflection rollers that rotate along transversely to the axis of rotation of the eccentric shaft on one side of the synchronous belt guided around the deflection rollers or of the drive chain leads to a lengthening of the track, which is simultaneously compensated for by a shortening of the track on the opposite side of the synchronous belt or the drive chain.
- the eccentric bushing can be rotated on the eccentric shaft with little effort, so that the eccentric bushing assumes a desired angle of rotation on the eccentric shaft for setting the tamper stroke.
- the adjusting drive and/or the adjusting gear is designed for the synchronous adjustment of several eccentric bushings that are rotatably mounted along the eccentric shaft (overall stroke adjustment) or the adjusting mechanism includes several adjusting drives and/or adjusting gears for the separate adjustment of several eccentric bushings that are rotatably mounted along the eccentric shaft ( single stroke adjustment).
- the eccentric bushings installed along several unit sections can be adjusted together, i.e. synchronously with one another, or independently of one another, i.e. individually.
- eccentric bushings that can be controlled independently of one another, different tamper strokes can be set during one paving journey over the paving width that can be created using the screed.
- the adjustment mechanism can be coupled to an adjustment shaft on its output side.
- the adjustment shaft can transmit a phase adjustment set centrally by means of the adjustment mechanism synchronously to a number of unit sections of the compression unit, i.e. to eccentric bushings mounted thereon.
- the adjusting shaft or the shaft is preferably mounted parallel to the eccentric shaft.
- the adjusting drive and/or the adjusting gear can be controlled by means of a control device in order to set the desired angle of rotation of the eccentric bushing.
- the control device regardless of whether it is used for a total stroke adjustment or an individual stroke adjustment, can be present as an integral part of the adjustment mechanism.
- the control device can be connected via a CAN bus system to a vehicle controller of the road finisher, from which the setpoint tamper stroke or the respective setpoint tamper strokes can be maintained.
- control device for the dynamic adjustment of the angle of rotation of the eccentric bushing has at least one control loop that responds to at least one process parameter that can be detected during operation of the road finisher.
- a measured material-specific value of the paving material to be paved for example a measured temperature of the paving material transported from the goods bunker of the road finisher to the paving screed, and/or the paving layer produced, for example a measured temperature of the paving layer, be reacted accordingly with an adjustment of the angle of rotation between the eccentric bushing and the eccentric shaft in order to produce an optimal installation result.
- a preferred embodiment of the invention provides that the control circuit is able to control a dynamic angle of rotation adjustment between the eccentric bushing and the eccentric shaft in response to a disturbance variable, for example an ambient temperature, for the continuous adjustment of the tamper stroke.
- a disturbance variable for example an ambient temperature
- the adjustment mechanism preferably includes at least one sensor unit, which is designed to detect a set phase angle between the eccentric bushing and the eccentric shaft that carries it and/or to detect a stroke of the tamper strip.
- the adjustment drive especially when it is in the form of a servo motor, has at least one sensor unit suitable for this purpose, for example one or more angle sensors. This would allow the phase shift between the eccentric bushing and the eccentric shaft to be derived on the basis of the detected angular position of the motor shaft of the servomotor.
- the control device can calculate the actual tamper stroke based on the detected phase setting. It is conceivable that the control device derives the corresponding actual tamper stroke based on the measured phase setting, for example by means of phase characteristics.
- a phase setting detected or varying by means of the sensor unit can be transmitted to the control unit in a timely manner, so that based on a target/actual tamper stroke comparison, it may output a corresponding control signal to the adjustment drive, in particular the servo motor, in order to quickly rotate the eccentric bushing for a to control tamper stroke adjustment.
- the sensor unit could have at least one distance sensor, which is designed to directly measure a set actual tamper stroke of the tamper strip.
- the adjustment mechanism is designed to be manually adjustable. Above all, this can be used to calibrate the tamper strip at the beginning of the paving journey be helpful. Automated operation of the adjustment mechanism, on the other hand, can be used excellently during the paving journey.
- the invention also relates to a method for stepless adjustment of the tamper stroke on a compacting unit of a road finisher, with at least one eccentric bush being rotated on an eccentric shaft supporting it in order to adjust the taper stroke.
- an adjusting mechanism is controlled which is mounted at a distance from the eccentric shaft and rotates at least partially with a rotational movement of the eccentric shaft.
- the relative rotation between the eccentric bushing and the eccentric shaft is brought about by the fact that a flow of force derived from the eccentric shaft, which causes the adjustment mechanism or at least parts of it to rotate, is at least briefly reduced or increased by means of the adjustment mechanism in such a way that the angle of rotation between the eccentric bushing and the eccentric shaft changed.
- the torque is derived from the eccentric shaft and transmitted to the adjustment mechanism as drive torque.
- an adjustment gear that is connected to it and also rotates along with it can be controlled for torque adjustment by means of an adjustment drive.
- the eccentric bush rotates uniformly on the eccentric shaft, i.e. at the same speed, without additional control of the adjustment drive.
- a differential speed can be generated via the adjusting gear coupled to it between the eccentric bushing and the eccentric shaft supporting it, as a result of which the eccentric bushing rotates into a new angular position on the eccentric shaft.
- This adjusts the tamper stroke.
- the compression unit can manage overall with a reduced number of mechanical, electrical and/or hydraulic components in order to vary the tamper stroke. This results in a practical adjustment device that can be produced inexpensively and works essentially autonomously for varying the tamper stroke on the road finisher.
- figure 1 shows a road finisher 1 with a screed 2 for producing a paving layer 3 in the paving direction of travel R.
- the screed 2 has at least one compacting unit 4 for pre-compacting paving material 5 fed to the screed 2.
- the compacting unit 4 has a tamper strip 6, which has a variable tamper stroke H and/or a variable frequency F for pre-compacting the paving material 5 fed to the screed 2.
- FIG 2 shows the compression unit 4 separately in an enlarged perspective view.
- the compression unit 4 has a bearing block 7 fastened to the screed body and an eccentric shaft 8 rotatably mounted thereon.
- the eccentric shaft 8 drives a connecting rod 9 to which the tamper bar 6 is fastened.
- FIG figure 2 also shows an adjusting mechanism 10 which is driven in rotation by means of the eccentric shaft 8 .
- the adjusting mechanism 10 can be controlled to set a target tamper stroke 11 that can be varied for the tamper strip 6 .
- the co-rotating adjustment mechanism 10 includes an adjustment drive 12 and/or an adjustment gear 13.
- the adjusting drive 12 and the adjusting gear 13 are designed as a functional unit. This functional unit is coupled to a rotary motion of the eccentric shaft 8 by means of a timing belt 14 .
- the adjustment mechanism 10 can, without being additionally controlled, return the torque driving it by means of the synchronous belt 14 on its input side and setting it into rotation to a machine element 16 rotatably mounted on the eccentric shaft 8 by means of a further synchronous belt 15 provided on its output side.
- a phase angle of the machine element 16 mounted on the eccentric shaft 8 can be changed by an additional activation of the adjustment mechanism 10 .
- an eccentric bushing 17 (see Fig Figure 2C ) adjust. According to figure 2 is thus for rotating the eccentric bushing 17 on the eccentric shaft 8 of the eccentric shaft 8 mounted spaced, with the rotational movement of the eccentric shaft 8 co-rotating adjustment mechanism 10 can be controlled.

Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft einen Straßenfertiger gemäß dem Anspruch 1 sowie ein Verfahren zur stufenlosen Tamperhubverstellung an einem Straßenfertiger gemäß dem Anspruch 15.The present invention relates to a road finisher according to claim 1 and a method for stepless tamper stroke adjustment on a road finisher according to
Bei den vorangehend beiden erstgenannten Lösungen stellt die Exzenterhubverstellung während des Betriebs des Straßenfertigers eine technische Herausforderung dar. Dies liegt insbesondere daran, dass eine Ansteuerung bzw. Betätigung des direkt auf der Exzenterwelle, zwischen der Exzenterbuchse und der Exzenterwelle gelagerten Verstellgetriebes schwierig durchführbar ist. Der Kniehebelmechanismus ist konstruktiv eher aufwändig und nimmt an der Einbaubohle viel Platz ein.In the first two solutions mentioned above, adjusting the eccentric stroke during operation of the road finisher represents a technical challenge. This is particularly due to the fact that it is difficult to control or actuate the adjusting gear mounted directly on the eccentric shaft, between the eccentric bushing and the eccentric shaft. The toggle lever mechanism is structurally rather complex and takes up a lot of space on the screed.
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, einen Straßenfertiger mit einer Tamperhubverstelleinrichtung sowie ein Verfahren zur stufenlosen Tamperhubverstellung an einem Straßenfertiger zur Verfügung zu stellen, wodurch sich der Tamperhub anhand einfach konstruktiver technischer Mittel, insbesondere unter Verwendung weniger Baugruppen, präzise und stufenlos, vor allem während des Einbaubetriebs des Straßenfertigers, einstellen lässt.The object of the invention is to provide a road finisher with a tamper stroke adjustment device and a method for stepless tamper stroke adjustment on a road finisher, whereby the tamper stroke can be adjusted precisely and steplessly, especially during paving operation, using simple constructive technical means, in particular using fewer assemblies of the road finisher.
Diese Aufgabe wird gelöst anhand eines Straßenfertigers gemäß dem Anspruch 1 oder mittels eines Verfahrens gemäß dem Anspruch 15. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind durch die jeweiligen Unteransprüche angegeben.This object is achieved using a road finisher according to claim 1 or by means of a method according to
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Straßenfertiger mit einer Einbaubohle zum Herstellen einer Einbauschicht, wobei die Einbaubohle mindestens ein Verdichtungsaggregat zum Vorverdichten eines der Einbaubohle zugeführten Einbaumaterials aufweist, und wobei das Verdichtungsaggregat mindestens eine Exzenterbuchse aufweist, die auf einer sie tragenden Exzenterwelle in einen gewünschten Drehwinkel verdrehbar gelagert ist, um dadurch stufenlos einen Soll-Tamperhub einer Tamperleiste des Verdichtungsaggregats einzustellen.The invention relates to a road finisher with a screed for producing a paving layer, wherein the screed has at least one compacting unit for pre-compacting a paving material fed to the screed, and wherein the compacting unit has at least one eccentric bushing, which is rotatably mounted to a desired angle of rotation on an eccentric shaft carrying it , in order thereby to steplessly set a desired tamper stroke of a tamper strip of the compression unit.
Erfindungsgemäß ist zum Verdrehen der Exzenterbuchse zur Exzenterwelle ein von der Exzenterwelle beabstandet gelagerter, zumindest teilweise mit einer Drehbewegung der Exzenterwelle mitrotierender Verstellmechanismus ansteuerbar. Da bei der Erfindung, trotz seiner beabstandeten Lage zur Exzenterwelle, ein selbst rotierender Verstellmechanismus die auf der Exzenterwelle mitdrehende Exzenterbuchse für eine Tamperhubverstellung ansteuert, ergeben sich in Summe, wie im Folgenden beschrieben, gleich mehrere Vorteile.According to the invention, in order to rotate the eccentric bushing relative to the eccentric shaft, an adjustment mechanism that is mounted at a distance from the eccentric shaft and rotates at least partially with a rotational movement of the eccentric shaft can be controlled. Since in the case of the invention, despite its spaced position from the eccentric shaft, a self-rotating adjusting mechanism controls the eccentric bushing rotating along with the eccentric shaft for adjusting the tamper stroke, there are several advantages in total, as described below.
Das Verdrehen der Exzenterbuchse auf der Exzenterwelle, sprich der jeweiligen Exzentrizitäten dieser beiden Bauteile, führt zu einer Phasenverstellung, womit sich der Soll-Tamperhub an der Einbaubohle einstellen lässt. Die Phasenverstellung ist vorteilhaft, insbesondere unter geringem Kraftaufwand, anhand des von der Exzenterwelle beabstandeten, vornehmlich mit der Drehzahl der Exzenterwelle, selbst mitrotierenden Verstellmechanismus ansteuerbar. Zum Einstellen der Phasenverstellung zwischen der Exzenterbuchse und der Exzenterwelle kann der mitrotierende Verstellmechanismus zumindest kurzzeitig derart angesteuert werden, dass das ihn an seiner Eingangsseite antreibende Drehmoment bzw. die dort anliegende Drehzahl an seiner Abtriebsseite, an welcher er eine Kopplung zur Exzenterbuchse vorsieht, über- oder untersetzt wird.Turning the eccentric bushing on the eccentric shaft, i.e. the respective eccentricities of these two components, leads to a phase adjustment, with which the target tamper stroke on the screed can be set. The phase adjustment is advantageously controllable, in particular with little effort, by means of the adjusting mechanism which is spaced apart from the eccentric shaft and primarily rotates with the speed of the eccentric shaft itself. To set the phase adjustment between the eccentric bushing and the eccentric shaft, the co-rotating adjustment mechanism can be controlled at least briefly in such a way that the torque driving it on its input side or the speed present there on its output side, on which it provides a coupling to the eccentric bushing, is exceeded or exceeded is stocky.
Dadurch kann die mit dem Verstellmechanismus gekoppelte, auf der Exzenterwelle mitdrehende Exzenterbuchse entsprechend des mittels des Verstellmechanismus angesteuerten Übersetzungsverhältnisses relativ zur Drehbewegung der Exzenterwelle "gebremst" oder "beschleunigt" werden, wodurch sich die Exzenterbuchse relativ zur Exzenterwelle in eine neue Winkelposition verdreht, d.h. die mittels des Verstellmechanismus angesteuerte Phasenverstellung durchführt. Ohne eine gesonderte Ansteuerung des mitrotierenden Verstellmechanismus dreht die Exzenterbuchse mit derselben Drehzahl wie die Exzenterwelle, d.h. zusammen mit dieser mit einem gleichbleibenden Phasenwinkel.As a result, the eccentric bushing coupled to the adjusting mechanism and rotating on the eccentric shaft can be "braked" or "accelerated" relative to the rotational movement of the eccentric shaft according to the transmission ratio controlled by the adjusting mechanism, whereby the eccentric bushing rotates relative to the eccentric shaft into a new angular position, i.e. the the phase adjustment controlled by the adjustment mechanism. Without a separate control of the co-rotating adjustment mechanism, the eccentric bush rotates at the same speed as the eccentric shaft, i.e. together with it with a constant phase angle.
Der Begriff "mitrotierend" bedeutet, dass der Verstellmechanismus oder zumindest ein Anteil der daran vorgesehenen Komponenten gemeinsam mit der Exzenterwelle, allerdings von dieser beabstandet gelagert, während des Betriebs des Verdichtungsaggregats rotiert. Diese mit der Exzenterwelle mitrotierende Baugruppe kann feinfühlig, unter geringem Kräfteaufwand für die vorangehend beschriebene Phasenverstellung, sprich eine Änderung der Winkelposition der auf der Exzenterwelle positionierten Exzenterbuchse, d.h. zum Variieren des Tamperhubs, angesteuert werden. Außerdem lässt sich das Ansteuern des von der Exzenterwelle beabstandet positionierten Verstellmechanismus präziser durchführen. Ferner lässt sich anhand eines solchen mitrotierenden Verstellmechanismus die Tamperhubverstellung besser automatisiert durchführen.The term "co-rotating" means that the adjustment mechanism or at least a portion of the components provided thereon rotates together with the eccentric shaft, although mounted at a distance from it, during operation of the compression unit. This assembly rotating with the eccentric shaft can be sensitively controlled with little effort for the phase adjustment described above, i.e. a change in the angular position of the eccentric bushing positioned on the eccentric shaft, i.e. to vary the tamper stroke. In addition, the adjustment mechanism positioned at a distance from the eccentric shaft can be controlled more precisely. Furthermore, the tamper stroke adjustment can be carried out better automatically using such a co-rotating adjustment mechanism.
Insbesondere kann vorgesehen sein, dass ein für die relative Verdrehung der Exzenterbuchse zur Exzenterwelle, von der Exzenterwelle selbst auf den Verstellmechanismus abgezweigter, diesen in Abhängigkeit einer Drehbewegung der Exzenterwelle zumindest teilweise in Rotation versetzender Kraftfluss vorliegt, wobei der dadurch in Rotation versetzte Verstellmechanismus derart ansteuerbar ist, dass er den auf ihn geleiteten Kraftfluss zwischen seinem Eingang und seinem Ausgang so manipuliert, dass dadurch eine Phasenverschiebung an seinem Abtrieb zustande kommt, worauf basierend die Exzenterbuchse auf der Exzenterwelle dementsprechend verdreht wird. Der Verstellmechanismus kann beispielsweise als hydraulisches und/oder elektromechanisches Phasenverstellsystem vorliegen.In particular, it can be provided that for the relative rotation of the eccentric bushing to the eccentric shaft, there is a flow of force that is branched off from the eccentric shaft itself to the adjustment mechanism and sets it at least partially in rotation as a function of a rotational movement of the eccentric shaft, the adjustment mechanism set in rotation thereby being controllable in this way that he manipulates the power flow directed to him between his input and his output in such a way that a phase shift occurs at his output, based on which the eccentric bushing on the eccentric shaft is twisted accordingly. The adjustment mechanism can be in the form of a hydraulic and/or electromechanical phase adjustment system, for example.
Bei der Erfindung kommt die gewünschte Tamperhubeinstellung vorzugsweise als Summe der Einzelexzentrizitäten der Exzenterwelle und der darauf verdrehbar gelagerten Exzenterbuchse zustande. Ein dazwischen eingestellter Phasenwinkel kann mittels des mitrotierenden Verstellmechanismus, insbesondere, wenn dieser als elektromechanischer Phasenversteller ausgebildet ist, reaktionsschnell und sehr präzise geändert werden. Als rotierende Baugruppe kann der Verstellmechanismus hervorragend für eine Phasenverstellung zwischen seiner Antriebs- und seiner Abtriebsseite angesteuert werden.In the case of the invention, the desired tamper stroke adjustment preferably comes about as the sum of the individual eccentricities of the eccentric shaft and the eccentric bushing mounted so as to be rotatable thereon. A phase angle set in between can be changed in a fast-reacting and very precise manner by means of the co-rotating adjustment mechanism, in particular if this is designed as an electromechanical phase adjuster. As a rotating assembly, the adjustment mechanism can be excellently controlled for a phase adjustment between its drive and its driven side.
Der bei der Erfindung eingesetzte Verstellmechanismus baut als solcher vorteilhaft in kompakter Weise auf bereits existierenden Komponenten bzw. Baugruppen der Einbaubohle auf, sodass damit sogar an verschiedenen Bohlentypen ein hohes Maß an Gleichteilen möglich ist. Aufgrund seiner zur Exzenterwelle beabstandeten Lage kann die Exzenterwelle selbst in konstruktiver Hinsicht einfacher gebaut sein.As such, the adjustment mechanism used in the invention advantageously builds on existing components or assemblies of the screed in a compact manner, so that a large number of identical parts is possible even on different screed types. Due to its location at a distance from the eccentric shaft, the eccentric shaft itself can be of simpler construction.
Dadurch, dass bei der Erfindung vorzugsweise der Verstellmechanismus zumindest teilweise von der Exzenterwelle drehangetrieben werden kann, ergibt sich insgesamt für die an ihm einstellbare Phasenverstellung eine vorteilhafte Kräftebilanz zum Einstellen des Tamperhubs. Dies wiederum führt dazu, dass der Verstellmechanismus einfacher automatisierbar ist, wodurch ein besseres Einbauergebnis mittels des Straßenfertigers möglich ist.Due to the fact that in the invention the adjusting mechanism can preferably be driven in rotation at least partially by the eccentric shaft, there is an overall advantageous balance of forces for adjusting the tamper stroke for the phase adjustment that can be adjusted on it. This in turn means that the adjustment mechanism can be automated more easily, which means that a better paving result is possible using the road finisher.
Vorzugsweise umfasst der Verstellmechanismus mindestens einen mittels der Drehbewegung der Exzenterwelle als solchen drehangetriebenen, zum Verdrehen der Exzenterbuchse ansteuerbaren Verstellantrieb und/oder mindestens ein mittels der Drehbewegung der Exzenterwelle drehangetriebenes, zum Verdrehen der Exzenterbuchse ansteuerbares Verstellgetriebe. Die Drehbewegung der Exzenterwelle ist bei dieser Ausführungsform allgemein ursächlich für das Rotieren des Verstellantriebs und/oder des Verstellgetriebes. Bei dieser Variante ist der Verstellantrieb und/oder das Verstellgetriebe in einen von der Exzenterwelle abgezweigten Antriebsstrang integriert, in dessen Kraftfluss der Verstellantrieb und/oder das Verstellgetriebe mitrotierend eingebunden ist. Ein feinfühliges Variieren des Drehwinkels zwischen der Exzenterbuchse und der Exzenterwelle wird hier durch eine Betätigung des Verstellantriebs und/oder des Verstellgetriebes schon unter geringem Kraftaufwand erreicht. Insbesondere lässt sich dadurch der Phasenverschiebungswinkel des im Kraftfluss mitrotierenden Verstellantriebs und/oder Verstellgetriebes leichter einstellen. Damit ist der Verstellmechanismus besser in der Lage, die Exzenterbuchse bei laufendem Einbaubetrieb gegenüber der Exzenterwelle in jede gewünschte Tamperhubeinstellung zu verdrehen, d.h. den Tamperhub zwischen einem minimalen und einem maximalen Tamperhubwert einzustellen.Preferably, the adjustment mechanism comprises at least one adjustment drive driven in rotation by the rotational movement of the eccentric shaft as such and controllable for turning the eccentric bushing and/or at least one adjustment gear drive driven in rotation by the rotational movement of the eccentric shaft and controllable for turning the eccentric bushing. In this embodiment, the rotational movement of the eccentric shaft is generally the cause of the rotation of the adjusting drive and/or the adjusting gear. In this variant, the adjusting drive and/or the adjusting gear is integrated into a drive train branched off from the eccentric shaft, in the power flow of which the adjusting drive and/or the adjusting gear is integrated in a rotating manner. A sensitive variation of the angle of rotation between the eccentric bushing and the eccentric shaft is achieved here by actuating the adjusting drive and/or the adjusting gear with little effort. In particular, the phase shift angle of the adjusting drive and/or adjusting gear rotating along in the power flow can be set more easily as a result. The adjusting mechanism is thus better able to turn the eccentric bushing relative to the eccentric shaft to any desired tamper stroke setting during ongoing paving operation, i.e. to set the tamper stroke between a minimum and a maximum tamper stroke value.
Für eine kompakte Bauweise ist es von Vorteil, wenn der Verstellantrieb und das Verstellgetriebe gemeinsam eine mitrotierende Funktionseinheit ausbilden. Die Funktionseinheit liegt dann als modularer Phasenversteller vor, der mit der Drehzahl der Exzenterwelle zu dieser mitrotierend gelagert ist, wobei der Verstellantrieb das Verstellgetriebe für eine gewünschte Phasenverstellung ansteuern kann, damit sich in Reaktion darauf die Exzenterbuchse zur Exzenterwelle zum Variieren des Tamperhubs verdreht.For a compact design, it is advantageous if the adjusting drive and the adjusting gear jointly form a co-rotating functional unit. The functional unit is then in the form of a modular phase adjuster, which is mounted to rotate with the eccentric shaft at the same speed as the eccentric shaft, with the adjusting drive being able to control the adjusting gear for a desired phase adjustment, so that the eccentric bushing rotates in response to the eccentric shaft to vary the tamper stroke.
Wie vorangehend beschrieben wurde, kann bei der Erfindung die rotierende Exzenterwelle in Funktion eines Aktuators für den daran gekoppelten, mitrotierenden Verstellantrieb und/oder das mitrotierende Verstellgetriebe vorliegen, wobei zum Durchführen der Phasenverstellung zwischen der Exzenterbuchse und der Exzenterwelle der mitrotierende Verstellantrieb und/oder das mitrotierende Verstellgetriebe als solches außer ihrer Rotation zusätzlich ansteuerbar ist. Das von der Exzenterwelle abgegriffene Drehmoment kann im von der Exzenterwelle abgezweigten Antriebsstrang anhand des darin drehangetriebenen Verstellantriebs und/oder das Verstellgetriebes zumindest kurzzeitig zum Einstellen des gewünschten Phasenverschiebungswinkels geändert werden, sodass daraus resultierende Kräfte die Exzenterbuchse auf der Exzenterwelle ausbremsen oder beschleunigen, sprich verdrehen.As described above, in the invention the rotating eccentric shaft can function as an actuator for the co-rotating adjusting drive coupled to it and/or the co-rotating adjusting gear, with the co-rotating adjusting drive and/or the co-rotating Adjusting gear as such is also controlled in addition to their rotation. The torque picked off by the eccentric shaft can be changed at least briefly in the drive train branched off from the eccentric shaft by means of the adjusting drive and/or the adjusting gear driven in rotation therein in order to set the desired phase shift angle, so that the resulting forces decelerate or accelerate the eccentric bushing on the eccentric shaft, i.e. twist it.
Dadurch, dass bei der Erfindung bevorzugt die Exzenterwelle sowohl zum Antreiben der Tamperleiste dient als auch in Funktion einer Antriebswelle für den mitrotierenden Verstellantrieb und/oder das mitrotierende Verstellgetriebe vorliegen kann, sozusagen eine Doppelfunktion erfüllt, kann eine, ggf. von außen wirkende, Verstellkraft auf den Verstellantrieb und/oder das Verstellgetriebe zum Verdrehen der Exzenterbuchse erheblich reduziert werden. Dadurch können auch die für die Tamperhubverstellung eingesetzten Komponenten konstruktiv reduziert werden, womit sich Herstellungskosten verringern lassen.Due to the fact that, in the case of the invention, the eccentric shaft preferably serves both to drive the tamper strip and can also function as a drive shaft for the co-rotating adjusting drive and/or the co-rotating adjusting gear, so to speak fulfills a double function, an adjusting force, possibly acting from the outside, can arise the adjusting drive and/or the adjusting gear for turning the eccentric bushing can be significantly reduced. As a result, the components used for adjusting the tamper stroke can also be structurally reduced, with the result that manufacturing costs can be reduced.
Das während des Einbaubetriebs vorzugsweise von der Exzenterwelle kontinuierlich abgegriffene Drehmoment ist im abgezweigten Kraftfluss anhand des darin angeordneten, mitrotierenden Verstellantriebs und/oder des mitrotierenden Verstellgetriebes derart manipulierbar, dass damit ohne großen zusätzlichen Krafteintrag eine Verstellbewegung der Exzenterbuchse auf der mittels der Antriebsdrehzahl rotierenden Exzenterwelle problemlos möglich ist. Ein Verstellmoment zum Variieren des Tamperhubs, sprich zum Ändern einer vektoriellen Summe der Einzelexzentrizitäten der Exzenterbuchse und der Exzenterwelle, resultiert aus der mittels des Verstellantriebs und/oder des Verstellgetriebes ansteuerbaren Phasenverstellung. Während der Durchführung der Phasenverstellung wird die Exzenterbuchse relativ zur Drehbewegung der Exzenterwelle in oder entgegen einer Drehrichtung der Exzenterwelle gedreht, bis die Exzenterbuchse eine gegenüber ihrer Ausgangsposition verstellte gewünschte Winkellage auf der Exzenterwelle einnimmt.The torque, which is preferably continuously tapped off from the eccentric shaft during paving operation, can be manipulated in the branched-off power flow using the co-rotating adjustment drive and/or the co-rotating adjusting gear arranged therein in such a way that an adjustment movement of the eccentric bushing on the eccentric shaft rotating by means of the drive speed is possible without any problems and without a large additional force input is. An adjusting torque for varying the tamper stroke, ie for changing a vectorial sum of the individual eccentricities of the eccentric bushing and the eccentric shaft, results from the phase adjustment that can be controlled by means of the adjusting drive and/or the adjusting gear. During the implementation of the phase adjustment, the eccentric bushing is rotated relative to the rotational movement of the eccentric shaft in or counter to a direction of rotation of the eccentric shaft until the eccentric bushing assumes a desired angular position on the eccentric shaft that is shifted from its starting position.
Vorzugsweise ist der mitrotierende Verstellantrieb und/oder das mitrotierende Verstellgetriebe dazu ansteuerbar, einen Drehwinkel eines auf der Exzenterwelle verdrehbar gelagerten Maschinenelements zu verstellen. Das Maschinenelement ermöglicht eine konstruktiv einfach herstellbare Kopplung des Verstellantriebs und/oder des Verstellgetriebes mit der auf der Exzenterwelle gelagerten Exzenterbuchse. Das Maschinenelement kann beispielsweise in Form eines Zahnrads oder einer Riemenscheibe für einen Synchronriemen vorliegen.The co-rotating adjusting drive and/or the co-rotating adjusting gear can preferably be controlled to adjust a rotation angle of a machine element rotatably mounted on the eccentric shaft. The machine element enables the adjustment drive and/or the adjustment gear to be coupled in a structurally simple manner to the eccentric shaft mounted eccentric bush. The machine element can for example be in the form of a toothed wheel or a pulley for a synchronous belt.
Eine Ausführungsform sieht vor, dass das Maschinenelement selbst die Exzenterbuchse ausbildet oder mittels einer formschlüssigen Kupplung, beispielsweise mittels einer Klauenkupplung, mit der Exzenterbuchse verbunden ist. Die erstgenannte Alternative ergibt einen Aufbau mit einer reduzierten Teileanzahl. Die zweite Alternative kann für Service- und/oder Instandsetzungsmaßnahmen vorteilhaft sein.One embodiment provides that the machine element itself forms the eccentric bushing or is connected to the eccentric bushing by means of a positive coupling, for example by means of a claw coupling. The former alternative results in an assembly with a reduced part count. The second alternative can be advantageous for service and/or repair measures.
Für einen standardisierten Aufbau ist es von Vorteil, wenn mindestens ein weiteres Maschinenelement vorgesehen ist, das zum Übertragen einer Drehbewegung der Exzenterwelle auf den Verstellantrieb und/oder das Verstellgetriebe ausgebildet ist. Das weitere Maschinenelement ist vorzugsweise drehfest auf der Exzenterwelle montiert. Es handelt sich dabei vorzugsweise um ein Zahnrad oder eine Riemenscheibe für einen Synchronriemen. Für das weitere Maschinenelement kann am Verstellantrieb und/oder am Verstellgetriebe, beispielsweise auf einem Getriebegehäuse des Verstellgetriebes oder auf einem Gehäuse des Verstellantriebs, ein komplementäres Koppelglied, beispielsweise in Form eines Zahnrads oder einer Riemenscheibe für den Synchronriemen, drehfest montiert sein.For a standardized structure, it is advantageous if at least one additional machine element is provided, which is designed to transmit a rotary motion of the eccentric shaft to the adjusting drive and/or the adjusting gear. The further machine element is preferably mounted in a rotationally fixed manner on the eccentric shaft. This is preferably a toothed wheel or a pulley for a synchronous belt. For the other machine element, a complementary coupling element, for example in the form of a gear wheel or a belt pulley for the synchronous belt, can be mounted non-rotatably on the adjustment drive and/or on the adjustment gear, for example on a gear housing of the adjustment gear or on a housing of the adjustment drive.
Mittels des weiteren Maschinenelements kann die Bewegungs- bzw. Kräfteübertragung von der Exzenterwelle auf den Verstellmechanismus durchgeführt werden. Eine dazu gesonderte, beispielsweise hydraulische oder elektromechanische Ansteuerung des in Rotation gesetzten Verstellmechanismus, insbesondere des mitrotierenden Verstellantriebs und/oder des mitrotierenden Verstellgetriebes, bewirkt, dass das an dessen Abtriebsseite gekoppelte, auf der Exzenterwelle verdrehbar angeordnete erste Maschineelement - und somit auch die Exzenterbuchse - phasenverstellt wird. Sobald das erste Maschinenelement die gewünschte Winkelposition eingenommen hat, d.h. der Soll-Tamperhub eingestellt ist, wird die vorangehend genannte gesonderte Ansteuerung des drehangetriebenen Verstellmechanismus abgebrochen. Ein am Verdichtungsaggregat dadurch eingestellter Ist-Drehwinkel zwischen der Exzenterbuchse und der Exzenterwelle ist dann mittels geeigneter Sensorik gut erfassbar. Der kontinuierlich während des Betriebs des Verdichtungsaggregats mitrotierende Verstellmechanismus kann für eine anschließend gewünschte Phasenverstellung erneut angesteuert werden, sodass es an seiner mit der Exzenterbuchse gekoppelten Abtriebsseite gegenüber seiner Antriebsseite zu einem erneuten Schaltmoment kommt.The motion or forces can be transmitted from the eccentric shaft to the adjustment mechanism by means of the additional machine element. A separate, for example hydraulic or electromechanical control of the adjusting mechanism set in rotation, in particular the co-rotating adjusting drive and/or the co-rotating adjusting gear, causes the first machine element, which is coupled to its output side and is rotatably arranged on the eccentric shaft - and thus also the eccentric bushing - to be phase-adjusted becomes. As soon as the first machine element has assumed the desired angular position, ie the target tamper stroke has been set, the aforementioned separate activation of the rotary-driven adjustment mechanism is terminated. An actual angle of rotation between the eccentric bushing and the eccentric shaft that is thus set on the compression unit can then be easily detected by means of suitable sensors. The adjustment mechanism, which rotates continuously during the operation of the compression unit, can be controlled again for a subsequently desired phase adjustment, so that a new switching moment occurs on its output side coupled to the eccentric bushing compared to its drive side.
Die zuvor beschriebenen Maschinenelemente zum Koppeln der Exzenterwelle mit dem Verstellmechanismus sowie zum Koppeln desselben mit der Exzenterbuchse können als Zahnrad, Riemenscheibe und/oder Kettenrad vorliegen und bilden somit standardisierte, vor allem kostengünstige Maschinebauteile aus.The machine elements described above for coupling the eccentric shaft to the adjusting mechanism and for coupling the same to the eccentric bushing can be in the form of gearwheels, belt pulleys and/or sprockets and thus form standardized, primarily cost-effective machine components.
Es bietet sich an, obwohl dies nicht zwingend nötig ist, dass während eines Betriebs des Verdichtungsaggregats der Verstellantrieb und/oder das Verstellgetriebe mit derselben Drehzahl wie die Exzenterwelle drehangetrieben ist. Beispielsweise werden hierfür gleichdimensionierte Zahn-/Kettenräder oder Riemenscheiben im Antriebsstrang zwischen der Exzenterwelle und dem damit drehangetriebenen Verstellmechanismus eingesetzt. Insbesondere kann während eines Betriebs des Verdichtungsaggregats der Verstellantrieb und/oder das Verstellgetriebe eine andere Drehzahl als die Exzenterwelle haben. Ein gewünschter Tamperhub kann dadurch erreicht werden, dass zwischen der Exzenterwelle und dem Verstellgetriebe und zwischen dem Verstellgetriebe und der Exzenterbuchse die gleiche Übersetzung vorliegt. Mit anderen Worten können die Exzenterwelle und die Verstellwelle, auf welcher das Verstellgetriebe gelagert ist, unterschiedliche Drehzahlen aufweisen; die Exzenterwelle und die Exzenterbuchse nicht.Although this is not absolutely necessary, it makes sense for the adjusting drive and/or the adjusting gear to be driven in rotation at the same speed as the eccentric shaft during operation of the compression unit. For example, gear wheels/chain wheels or belt pulleys of the same dimensions are used for this purpose in the drive train between the eccentric shaft and the adjustment mechanism that is driven in rotation with it. In particular, during operation of the compression unit, the adjusting drive and/or the adjusting gear can have a different speed than the eccentric shaft. A desired tamper stroke can be achieved in that there is the same translation between the eccentric shaft and the adjusting gear and between the adjusting gear and the eccentric bushing. In other words, the eccentric shaft and the adjusting shaft on which the adjusting gear is mounted can have different speeds; the eccentric shaft and the eccentric bushing do not.
Es ist vorteilhaft, wenn der Verstellantrieb und/oder das Verstellgetriebe hydraulisch, elektrisch und/oder mechanisch betätigbar ist. Mittels eines hydraulischen Verstellantriebs und/oder Verstellgetriebes könnten vor allen Dingen große Verstellkräfte erzeugt werden. Ein elektrischer oder elektromechanischer Verstellmechanismus würde in kürzeren Reaktionszeiten, sprich unabhängig von einer Hydrauliktemperatur, die Tamperhubverstellung ermöglichen.It is advantageous if the adjusting drive and/or the adjusting gear can be actuated hydraulically, electrically and/or mechanically. Above all, large adjusting forces could be generated by means of a hydraulic adjusting drive and/or adjusting gear. An electrical or electromechanical adjustment mechanism would allow the tamper stroke to be adjusted with shorter reaction times, i.e. independently of a hydraulic temperature.
Bevorzugt ist das Verstellgetriebe ein stufenlos verstellbares mechanisches, hydrostatisches oder elektrisches Getriebe. Vorzugsweise ist das Verstellgetriebe zum Einstellen eines gewünschten Übersetzungsverhältnisses mittels eines an der Einbaubohle ohnehin vorliegenden mechanischen, hydraulischen oder elektrischen Antriebs ansteuerbar, d.h. mittels eines Antriebs, der ferner zum Betrieb einer anderen Arbeitskomponente der Einbaubohle eingesetzt wird. Dies trägt weiter zu einer Reduzierung der eingesetzten Bauteile bzw. Baugruppen bei.The adjusting gear is preferably a continuously adjustable mechanical, hydrostatic or electric gear. The adjusting gear can preferably be controlled to set a desired transmission ratio by means of a mechanical, hydraulic or electric drive that is already present on the screed, i.e. by means of a drive that is also used to operate another working component of the screed. This further contributes to a reduction in the number of components or assemblies used.
Eine Variante sieht vor, dass der Verstellantrieb einen ansteuerbaren Servomotor aufweist und/oder für das Verstellgetriebe ein Servomotor vorgesehen ist. Der Servomotor kann zusammen mit dem Verstellgetriebe eine zur Exzenterwelle mitrotierende Funktionseinheit ausbilden, wobei der Servomotor für eine gewünschte Phasenverstellung derart ansteuerbar ist, dass er durch das mit ihm verbundene Verstellgetriebe den auf die Exzenterbuchse über den mitrotierenden Verstellmechanismus übertragenen Kraftfluss ändert. In Reaktion darauf verdreht sich die Exzenterbuchse auf der Exzenterwelle in die gewünschte Winkelposition.A variant provides that the adjusting drive has a controllable servo motor and/or a servo motor is provided for the adjusting gear. The servomotor together with the adjusting gear can form a functional unit rotating with the eccentric shaft, the servomotor being controllable for a desired phase adjustment in such a way that it changes the power flow transmitted to the eccentric bushing via the adjusting mechanism rotating with it through the adjusting gear connected to it. In response, the eccentric bushing rotates on the eccentric shaft to the desired angular position.
Vorzugsweise ist das Verstellgetriebe als Kurvengetriebe ausgebildet und/oder weist ein Paar rotierender Umlenkrollen auf. Damit kann das Verstellgetriebe besonders robust ausgebildet sein. Vorstellbar ist es, dass das Kurvengetriebe zwei zueinander verstellbar gelagerte Kurvenscheiben aufweist, die linear und/oder rotatorisch zueinander verlagerbar sind. Eine Bewegung der Kurvenscheiben zueinander kann bewirken, dass die daran gelagerten Umlenkrollen entlang daran ausgebildeter Kurvenbahnen verstellt werden, wodurch eine Phasenverstellung resultiert.The adjusting mechanism is preferably designed as a cam mechanism and/or has a pair of rotating deflection rollers. In this way, the adjustment gear can be designed to be particularly robust. It is conceivable for the cam mechanism to have two cam disks which are mounted so as to be adjustable in relation to one another and can be displaced linearly and/or rotationally in relation to one another. A movement of the cam discs relative to each other can cause the deflection rollers mounted thereon to be adjusted along curved paths formed thereon, which results in a phase adjustment.
Gemäß einer Ausführungsform der Erfindung sieht das Verstellgetriebe zum Verschieben der daran gelagerten, im Kraftfluss mitrotierenden Umlenkrollen mindestens eine ortsfest gelagerte Kurvenscheibe und mindestens eine daran beweglich gelagerte Kurvenscheibe vor. Diese ist für eine translatorische und/oder eine rotatorische Verlagerung an der ortsfesten Kurvenscheibe montiert, um dadurch für eine Phasenverstellung eine Verschiebung der Drehachsen der mitrotierenden Umlenkrollen einzustellen.According to one embodiment of the invention, the adjustment mechanism provides at least one stationary cam and at least one movably mounted cam for shifting the deflection rollers mounted thereon and rotating in the power flow. This is mounted on the stationary cam disk for translational and/or rotational displacement, in order thereby to set a displacement of the axes of rotation of the deflection rollers that rotate along for a phase adjustment.
Gemäß einer Ausführungsform ist das Paar rotierender Umlenkrollen zum Verdrehen der Exzenterbuchse auf der Exzenterwelle quer zur Exzenterwelle, d.h. quer zu dessen Drehachse, verschiebbar gelagert. Die mitrotierenden Umlenkrollen können an einem Zahnriemen oder an einer Antriebskette anliegend gelagert sein, der oder die mit dem auf der Exzenterwelle verdrehbar gelagerten Maschinenelement verbunden ist. Mittels einer Verlagerung der Umlenkrollen ändert sich zugleich ein Längenverhältnis der gegenüber geführten Riemen- oder Kettenabschnitte, sodass sich in Reaktion darauf das Maschinenelement auf der Exzenterwelle verdreht, sprich die Exzenterbuchse zur Exzenterwelle phasenverstellt wird.According to one embodiment, the pair of rotating deflection rollers for rotating the eccentric bushing is mounted on the eccentric shaft so as to be displaceable transversely to the eccentric shaft, i.e. transversely to its axis of rotation. The co-rotating deflection rollers can be mounted adjacent to a toothed belt or a drive chain, which is connected to the machine element mounted rotatably on the eccentric shaft. By shifting the deflection rollers, the length ratio of the belt or chain sections guided opposite one another changes at the same time, so that the machine element on the eccentric shaft rotates in response to this, i.e. the eccentric bushing is phase-shifted in relation to the eccentric shaft.
Die beiden mitrotierenden Umlenkrollen können hinsichtlich zueinander beabstandeten, parallel gelagerten Drehachsen drehbar gelagert sein. Anhand einer Änderung der Positionierung der mitrotierenden Umlenkrollen, insbesondere bei einer Änderung des Abstands zwischen den Drehachsen, kann auf den Phasenverstellwinkel Einfluss genommen werden, anhand dessen die Exzenterbuchse auf der Exzenterwelle liegt.The two co-rotating deflection rollers can be rotatably mounted with respect to mutually spaced, parallel mounted axes of rotation. A change in the positioning of the co-rotating deflection rollers, in particular a change in the distance between the axes of rotation, can be used to influence the phase adjustment angle, based on which the eccentric bushing lies on the eccentric shaft.
Vorzugsweise führt eine translatorische Verschiebung der mitrotierenden Umlenkrollen quer zur Drehachse der Exzenterwelle auf einer Seite des um die Umlenkrollen gelenkten Synchronriemens oder der Antriebskette zu einer Bahnverlängerung, was gleichzeitig durch eine Bahnverkürzung auf der gegenüberliegenden Seite des Synchronriemens oder der Antriebskette kompensiert wird. Dadurch kann unter geringem Kraftaufwand eine Verdrehung der Exzenterbuchse auf der Exzenterwelle erfolgen, sodass die Exzenterbuchse zum Einstellen des Tamperhubs einen gewünschten Drehwinkel auf der Exzenterwelle einnimmt.Preferably, a translational displacement of the deflection rollers that rotate along transversely to the axis of rotation of the eccentric shaft on one side of the synchronous belt guided around the deflection rollers or of the drive chain leads to a lengthening of the track, which is simultaneously compensated for by a shortening of the track on the opposite side of the synchronous belt or the drive chain. As a result, the eccentric bushing can be rotated on the eccentric shaft with little effort, so that the eccentric bushing assumes a desired angle of rotation on the eccentric shaft for setting the tamper stroke.
Eine vorteilhafte Variante sieht vor, dass der Verstellantrieb und/oder das Verstellgetriebe zum synchronen Verstellen mehrerer entlang der Exzenterwelle verdrehbar gelagerter Exzenterbuchsen ausgebildet ist (Gesamthubverstellung) oder der Verstellmechanismus mehrere Verstellantriebe und/oder Verstellgetriebe zum separaten Verstellen mehrerer entlang der Exzenterwelle verdrehbar gelagerter Exzenterbuchsen umfasst (Einzelhubverstellung). Die entlang mehrerer Aggregatabschnitte installierten Exzenterbuchsen können bei diesen Varianten gemeinsam, also synchron miteinander, oder unabhängig voneinander, d.h. einzeln, verstellt werden. Anhand von unabhängig voneinander ansteuerbaren Exzenterbuchsen ließen sich während einer Einbaufahrt über die mittels der Einbaubohle herstellbare Einbaubreite verschiedene Tamperhübe einstellen.An advantageous variant provides that the adjusting drive and/or the adjusting gear is designed for the synchronous adjustment of several eccentric bushings that are rotatably mounted along the eccentric shaft (overall stroke adjustment) or the adjusting mechanism includes several adjusting drives and/or adjusting gears for the separate adjustment of several eccentric bushings that are rotatably mounted along the eccentric shaft ( single stroke adjustment). With these variants, the eccentric bushings installed along several unit sections can be adjusted together, i.e. synchronously with one another, or independently of one another, i.e. individually. Using eccentric bushings that can be controlled independently of one another, different tamper strokes can be set during one paving journey over the paving width that can be created using the screed.
Für ein synchrones Verstellen der Exzenterbuchsen kann der Verstellmechanismus an seiner Abtriebsseite mit einer Verstellwelle gekoppelt sein. Die Verstellwelle kann eine zentral mittels des Verstellmechanismus eingestellte Phasenverstellung synchron an mehrere Aggregatabschnitte des Verdichtungsaggregats, d.h. an daran gelagerte Exzenterbuchsen, weitergeben. Alternativ dazu kann für jeden Aggregatabschnitt des Verdichtungsaggregats ein eigenständig ansteuerbarer, mitrotierender Verstellmechanismus vorliegen. Diese können auf einer gemeinsamen Welle gelagert sein, über die sie jeweils eine Drehbewegung der Exzenterwelle aufnehmen. An deren Ausgangseite lassen sich jedoch verschiedene Phasenverstellungen einstellen. Vorzugsweise ist die Verstellwelle bzw. die Welle parallel zur Exzenterwelle gelagert.For synchronous adjustment of the eccentric bushes, the adjustment mechanism can be coupled to an adjustment shaft on its output side. The adjustment shaft can transmit a phase adjustment set centrally by means of the adjustment mechanism synchronously to a number of unit sections of the compression unit, i.e. to eccentric bushings mounted thereon. As an alternative to this, there can be an independently controllable, co-rotating adjusting mechanism for each unit section of the compression unit. These can be mounted on a common shaft, via which they each record a rotational movement of the eccentric shaft. However, different phase adjustments can be set on the output side. The adjusting shaft or the shaft is preferably mounted parallel to the eccentric shaft.
Gemäß einer Ausführungsform ist der Verstellantrieb und/oder das Verstellgetriebe zum Einstellen des gewünschten Drehwinkels der Exzenterbuchse mittels einer Steuereinrichtung ansteuerbar. Die Steuereinrichtung, unabhängig davon, ob sie für eine Gesamthubverstellung oder eine Einzelhubverstellung eingesetzt wird, kann als integraler Bestandteil des Verstellmechanismus vorliegen. Die Steuereinrichtung kann über ein CAN-Bussystem mit einer Fahrzeugsteuerung des Straßenfertigers verbunden sein, von welcher aus der Soll-Tamperhub bzw. die jeweiligen Soll-Tamperhübe vorhaltbar sind.According to one embodiment, the adjusting drive and/or the adjusting gear can be controlled by means of a control device in order to set the desired angle of rotation of the eccentric bushing. The control device, regardless of whether it is used for a total stroke adjustment or an individual stroke adjustment, can be present as an integral part of the adjustment mechanism. The control device can be connected via a CAN bus system to a vehicle controller of the road finisher, from which the setpoint tamper stroke or the respective setpoint tamper strokes can be maintained.
Eine besonders bevorzugte Variante sieht vor, dass die Steuereinrichtung zur dynamischen Drehwinkelanpassung der Exzenterbuchse zumindest einen auf mindestens einen während des Betriebs des Straßenfertigers erfassbaren Prozessparameter ansprechenden Regelkreis aufweist. Anhand des Regelkreises kann beispielsweise auf einen gemessenen materialspezifischen Wert des zu verbauenden Einbauguts, beispielsweise auf eine gemessene Temperatur des aus dem Gutbunker des Straßenfertigers zur Einbaubohle transportierten Einbaumaterials, und/oder der hergestellten Einbauschicht, beispielsweise auf eine gemessene Temperatur der Einbauschicht, entsprechend mit einer Anpassung des Drehwinkels zwischen der Exzenterbuchse und der Exzenterwelle reagiert werden, um ein optimales Einbauergebnis herzustellen.A particularly preferred variant provides that the control device for the dynamic adjustment of the angle of rotation of the eccentric bushing has at least one control loop that responds to at least one process parameter that can be detected during operation of the road finisher. On the basis of the control circuit, for example, a measured material-specific value of the paving material to be paved, for example a measured temperature of the paving material transported from the goods bunker of the road finisher to the paving screed, and/or the paving layer produced, for example a measured temperature of the paving layer, be reacted accordingly with an adjustment of the angle of rotation between the eccentric bushing and the eccentric shaft in order to produce an optimal installation result.
Eine bevorzugte Ausführungsform der Erfindung sieht vor, dass der Regelkreis dazu in der Lage ist, in Reaktion auf eine Störgröße, beispielsweise eine Umgebungstemperatur, eine dynamische Drehwinkelverstellung zwischen der Exzenterbuchse und der Exzenterwelle zum kontinuierlichen Anpassen des Tamperhubs zu steuern.A preferred embodiment of the invention provides that the control circuit is able to control a dynamic angle of rotation adjustment between the eccentric bushing and the eccentric shaft in response to a disturbance variable, for example an ambient temperature, for the continuous adjustment of the tamper stroke.
Vorstellbar ist es, dass beim Einregeln der Tamperhubeinstellung ein eingestellter Anstellwinkel der Einbaubohle, eine gefahrene Einbaugeschwindigkeit des Straßenfertigers, eine eingestellte Antriebsdrehzahl der Exzenterwelle, eine Temperatur von Verdichterplatten der Einbaubohle und/oder Messwerte eines gesonderten Baustellenfahrzeugs, beispielsweise Messwerte bezüglich der hergestellten Einbauschicht, die anhand eines dem Straßenfertiger hinterherfahrenden Verdichterfahrzeugs erfasst werden, berücksichtigt werden.It is conceivable that when adjusting the tamper stroke setting, a set angle of attack of the screed, a paving speed driven by the road finisher, a set drive speed of the eccentric shaft, a temperature of the compactor plates of the screed and/or measured values from a separate construction site vehicle, for example measured values regarding the paving layer produced, which are based on of a compactor vehicle driving behind the road finisher can be taken into account.
Vorzugsweise umfasst der Verstellmechanismus mindestens eine Sensoreinheit, die zum Erfassen eines eingestellten Phasenwinkels zwischen der Exzenterbuchse und der sie tragenden Exzenterwelle und/oder zum Erfassen eines Hubs der Tamperleiste ausgebildet ist. Vorstellbar ist es, dass der Verstellantrieb, vor allem dann, wenn er als Servomotor vorliegt, mindestens eine dafür zweckmäßige Sensoreinheit, beispielsweise einen oder mehrere Winkelsensoren, aufweist. Damit ließe sich auf Basis der erfassten Winkelposition der Motorwelle des Servomotors die Phasenverstellung zwischen der Exzenterbuchse und der Exzenterwelle herleiten. Anhand der erfassten Phaseneinstellung kann die Steuereinrichtung den Ist-Tamperhub berechnen. Vorstellbar ist es, dass die Steuereinrichtung basierend auf der gemessenen Phaseneinstellung, beispielsweise mittels Phasen-Kennlinien, den dementsprechenden Ist-Tamperhub herleitet. Eine mittels der Sensoreinheit erfasste bzw. variierende Phaseneinstellung kann zeitecht an die Steuereinheit übermittelt werden, sodass diese basierend auf einem Soll-Ist-Tamperhubvergleich ggf. ein dementsprechendes Steuersignal an den Verstellantrieb, insbesondere den Servomotor, ausgibt, um reaktionsschnell eine Verdrehung der Exzenterbuchse für eine Tamperhubanpassung anzusteuern.The adjustment mechanism preferably includes at least one sensor unit, which is designed to detect a set phase angle between the eccentric bushing and the eccentric shaft that carries it and/or to detect a stroke of the tamper strip. It is conceivable that the adjustment drive, especially when it is in the form of a servo motor, has at least one sensor unit suitable for this purpose, for example one or more angle sensors. This would allow the phase shift between the eccentric bushing and the eccentric shaft to be derived on the basis of the detected angular position of the motor shaft of the servomotor. The control device can calculate the actual tamper stroke based on the detected phase setting. It is conceivable that the control device derives the corresponding actual tamper stroke based on the measured phase setting, for example by means of phase characteristics. A phase setting detected or varying by means of the sensor unit can be transmitted to the control unit in a timely manner, so that based on a target/actual tamper stroke comparison, it may output a corresponding control signal to the adjustment drive, in particular the servo motor, in order to quickly rotate the eccentric bushing for a to control tamper stroke adjustment.
Die Sensoreinheit könnte gemäß einer Ausführungsform mindestens einen Abstandssensor aufweisen, der dazu ausgebildet ist, direkt einen eingestellten Ist-Tamperhub der Tamperleiste zu messen.According to one embodiment, the sensor unit could have at least one distance sensor, which is designed to directly measure a set actual tamper stroke of the tamper strip.
Eine praktische Variante sieht vor, dass der Verstellmechanismus manuell verstellbar ausgebildet ist. Dies kann vor allen Dingen für eine Kalibrierung der Tamperleiste zu Beginn der Einbaufahrt hilfreich sein. Ein automatisierter Betrieb des Verstellmechanismus lässt sich dagegen hervorragend während der Einbaufahrt einsetzten.A practical variant provides that the adjustment mechanism is designed to be manually adjustable. Above all, this can be used to calibrate the tamper strip at the beginning of the paving journey be helpful. Automated operation of the adjustment mechanism, on the other hand, can be used excellently during the paving journey.
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auch auf ein Verfahren zur stufenlosen Tamperhubverstellung an einem Verdichtungsaggregat eines Straßenfertigers, wobei zum Verstellen des Taperhubs mindestens eine Exzenterbuchse auf einer sie lagernden Exzenterwelle verdreht wird. Erfindungsgemäß wird zum Verdrehen der Exzenterbuchse auf der Exzenterwelle ein zur Exzenterwelle beabstandet gelagerter, zumindest teilweise mit einer Drehbewegung der Exzenterwelle mitrotierender Verstellmechanismus angesteuert.The invention also relates to a method for stepless adjustment of the tamper stroke on a compacting unit of a road finisher, with at least one eccentric bush being rotated on an eccentric shaft supporting it in order to adjust the taper stroke. According to the invention, in order to rotate the eccentric bushing on the eccentric shaft, an adjusting mechanism is controlled which is mounted at a distance from the eccentric shaft and rotates at least partially with a rotational movement of the eccentric shaft.
Vorzugsweise kommt die relative Verdrehung zwischen der Exzenterbuchse und der Exzenterwelle dadurch zustande, dass ein von der Exzenterwelle abgeleiteter, den Verstellmechanismus oder zumindest Teile davon in eine Rotationsbewegung versetzender Kraftfluss anhand des Verstellmechanismus zumindest kurzzeitig derart unter- oder übersetzt wird, dass sich dadurch der Drehwinkel zwischen der Exzenterbuchse und der Exzenterwelle verändert. Hier wird also das Drehmoment von der Exzenterwelle abgeleitet und als Antriebsdrehmoment auf den Verstellmechanismus übertragen. Insbesondere ein daran angeschlossenes, ebenfalls mitrotierendes Verstellgetriebe kann für eine Drehmomentenanpassung mittels eines Verstellantriebs angesteuert werden. Bei dieser Ausführungsform dreht die Exzenterbuchse, ohne eine zusätzliche Ansteuerung des Verstellantriebs, auf der Exzenterwelle gleichförmig, d.h. mit gleicher Drehzahl, mit. Anhand einer gesonderten Ansteuerung des Verstellantriebs kann über das mit ihm gekoppelte Verstellgetriebe zwischen der Exzenterbuchse und der sie lagernden Exzenterwelle eine Differenzgeschwindigkeit erzeugt werden, wodurch sich die Exzenterbuchse auf der Exzenterwelle in eine neue Winkelposition verdreht. Dadurch wird der Tamperhub verstellt. Damit kommt das Verdichtungsaggregat insgesamt mit einer reduzierten Anzahl an mechanischen, elektrischen und/oder hydraulischen Komponenten auskommt, um den Tamperhub zu variieren. Dadurch entsteht eine praktische, kostengünstig herstellbare und im Wesentlichen autonom arbeitende Verstelleinrichtung zum Variieren des Tamperhubs am Straßenfertiger.Preferably, the relative rotation between the eccentric bushing and the eccentric shaft is brought about by the fact that a flow of force derived from the eccentric shaft, which causes the adjustment mechanism or at least parts of it to rotate, is at least briefly reduced or increased by means of the adjustment mechanism in such a way that the angle of rotation between the eccentric bushing and the eccentric shaft changed. Here, the torque is derived from the eccentric shaft and transmitted to the adjustment mechanism as drive torque. In particular, an adjustment gear that is connected to it and also rotates along with it can be controlled for torque adjustment by means of an adjustment drive. In this embodiment, the eccentric bush rotates uniformly on the eccentric shaft, i.e. at the same speed, without additional control of the adjustment drive. Using a separate control of the adjusting drive, a differential speed can be generated via the adjusting gear coupled to it between the eccentric bushing and the eccentric shaft supporting it, as a result of which the eccentric bushing rotates into a new angular position on the eccentric shaft. This adjusts the tamper stroke. This means that the compression unit can manage overall with a reduced number of mechanical, electrical and/or hydraulic components in order to vary the tamper stroke. This results in a practical adjustment device that can be produced inexpensively and works essentially autonomously for varying the tamper stroke on the road finisher.
