The present invention relates to an interchangeable unit () for material-removing work on a subsoil (U) starting from ground surface (A), the interchangeable unit () being designed for operational physical and functional coupling to a machine frame () of a road construction machine (), the interchangeable unit () comprising: According to the invention, a working shaft assemblage () penetrates a housing wall () of the housing (), the working shaft assemblage () connecting the removal tool () with a working gear component () situated on the side of the housing wall () facing away from the removal tool () for equidirectional joint rotation, the transmission gear unit () being situated between the drive belt pulley () and the working gear component ().

Interchangeable unit for texturing ground surface work and road construction machine having such an interchangeable unit

An interchangeable unit for material-removing work on a subsoil starting from ground surface includes a housing, a removal tool, a drive belt pulley and a transmission gear unit which transmits motion from the drive belt pulley to the removal tool.

The road milling machine according to the invention comprises a cleaning device which has a cleaning unit arranged in front of the work roller in the working direction. The cleaning unit ensures that the surface of the terrain over which the wheels or running gears travel is clear of material. As a result, an optimum milling result is always achieved. The invention takes effect in particular when using small millers which have at least one rear wheel or running gear which can be moved into an inner working position in relation to a longitudinal side of the machine frame and into an outer working position in relation to a longitudinal side of the machine frame. In this preferred embodiment, the cleaning device comprises a pivot device which is designed in such a way that the cleaning unit can be moved into an inner working position in relation to a longitudinal side of the machine frame and into an outer working position in relation to a longitudinal side of the machine frame. In the inner or outer working position, the cleaning unit is arranged on the same track as the rear wheel or running gear which can be moved into the inner or outer working position. This ensures that the track of the rear wheel or running gear is clear of milled material or other dirt, wherein the cleaning unit does not protrude too far beyond the rear wheel or running gear.

Self-propelled road milling machine

A self-propelled road milling machine is equipped with a cooling system comprising a fan for drawing in air, a cooler, and a suction channel. The suction channel has a vent opening facing the cooler and an intake opening. In relation to the longitudinal axis of the road milling machine, the intake opening points to the side of the road milling machine, so that air is drawn in from the side. This results in significantly less dirt being sucked into the machine than when the suction channel is positioned in the direction of travel. In a preferred embodiment, the suction channel is formed in one piece with a liquid tank of the road milling machine. The liquid tank and suction system therefore form a modular unit, which can be easily installed on the chassis of the road milling machine.

A road milling machine has a driver's cab equipped with a floor plate and a steering gear mounted on the chassis of the road milling machine. The steering gear includes a console, on which a steering wheel is positioned. One end the console is fastened laterally to the chassis, while the other end of the console is not attached to anything. The console extends over the floor plate, forming an opening between the floor plate and the console on a side. Since this opening is below the console, it is possible for the operator to observe the road surface without having to lean to the side, as is necessary with conventional road milling machines, in which the side of the chassis on which the console is positioned blocks the view.

The invention relates to an integral motor vehicle rear axle of the twist-beam axle type, which comprises an opposed pair of longitudinal control arms (2) of a high flexural strength and torsional stiffness for carrying a wheel carrier for a wheel, and a transverse strut (3) which is resistant to bending but resilient relative to torsional stress and which comprises a profiled cross-section changing the position of the shear center. The transverse strut (3) consists of an extruded aluminum profile with an extrusion structure extending in the longitudinal direction of the transverse strut. A method of producing a motor vehicle rear axle of the twist-beam axle type using transverse struts and longitudinal control arms consists in joining the longitudinal control arms (2) with a transverse carrier or strut (3) which, at each end, comprises a bore, opening or bonding surface extending transversely to the longitudinal axis, and in connecting said longitudinal control arms in a form-fitting and force-locking way, such as by hydro-forming, welding or similar methods.

Disclosed is a hinge past system which enables an operator to simultaneously install and position a door at a desired location on the body of a motor vehicle. The hinge past system includes a hinge having a first section and a second section. The second section is rotatably connected to the first section. The second section further includes a key for securing the door to the vehicle and for adjusting the position of the door relative to the vehicle, along the longitudinal axis. The hinge post system further includes hinge post having a first chamber and a second chamber. The first chamber has an extension for securing the post to the vehicle. The second chamber includes an extension and other means for adjusting the position of the hinge relative to the second chamber along the vertical and lateral axes. The longitudinal, vertical and lateral axes are substantially perpendicular to one another.
