A ground milling machine comprising a machine frame, a driver's cab, a drive motor, movement means driven by the drive motor and a milling unit for milling up ground material, wherein the driver's cab has a protection roof and a front window device through which an operator located in the driver's cab can look forward in a forward direction of the ground milling machine.

Ground milling machine

The present invention relates to a milling drum box unit, in particular a quick-change milling drum box unit, for mounting to a self-propelled base machine to obtain a ground milling machine, the milling drum box unit comprising a part of a fastening device for mounting the milling drum box unit to the base machine, a connection point configured to receive and establish a drive connection to a milling drum rotatable about a rotation axis, on sides of each side wall a lateral shield height-adjustable relative to the side wall, at least two drive energy-consuming consumer elements and/or at least two sensors for detecting an operating parameter.

Exchangeable milling drum box unit, in particular quick-change milling drum box unit, and ground milling machine comprising a base machine and an exchangeable milling drum box unit

The present invention relates to a method for controlling a distance of a height-adjustable side shield of a milling drum box of a ground milling machine, in particular a road milling machine, a recycler or a stabilizer, in vertical direction with respect to the ground, comprising the steps of: ascertaining a reference value for the height setting of the side shield from operating parameters of the ground milling machine, determining a desired distance (d) between the side shield and the ground, the desired distance (d) ensuring the safety of persons located next to the ground milling machine, ascertaining a necessary height setting of the side shield from the reference value and the desired distance (d), and setting the position of the side shield with respect to the ground in observance of the desired distance (d), so that the side shield is guided, in vertical downward direction, without contact to the ground. Moreover, the present invention relates to a ground milling machine with a control device for carrying out the method.

Method for regulating the height of a side shield of a ground milling machine, and ground milling machine

The invention relates to a ground milling machine, comprising: a machine frame supported by front and rear travel units and at least partially height-adjustable; a milling drum housing arranged on the machine frame, comprising a milling drum that is rotatable about a horizontal axis of rotation perpendicular to the milling direction; a retaining device arranged in front of the milling drum housing in the milling direction with an adjustment device that enables the height adjustment of the retaining device in relation to the milling drum housing and the machine frame; and a ground contact device arranged in front of the milling drum housing in the milling direction with a contact runner and a mounting lever. The contact runner is adjustable in relation to the retaining device within a height-adjustment range and is mounted on the retaining device by way of the mounting lever. The contact runner comprises a first joint via which it is connected to the mounting lever in a pivotable fashion, the mounting lever being connected to the retaining device via a second joint and positioned between the contact runner and the retaining device in such a manner that, when the height of the retaining device is adjusted in relation to the contact runner, the mounting lever reaches or traverses an apex of the curve of movement of the mounting lever about the first or second joint, the apex delimiting the adjustment path of the mounting lever in the horizontal direction over the entire height-adjustment range, in particular in such a manner that the horizontal distance between the first and the second joint increases before subsequently decreasing. Finally, a distance measuring device is provided, with which the vertical distance or a correlating value between the machine frame and/or the milling drum housing and the contact runner can be measured.

The present invention relates to a milling unit, in particular to a milling unit of a road milling machine, a transport vehicle with a transport device and a vehicle, as well as a method for transporting a milling unit, in particular using a transport vehicle according to the present invention.

Transport device for a milling unit, transport vehicle, and method for transporting a milling unit

The present invention relates to a transport device for a milling unit of a road milling machine, the milling unit comprising a milling drum box and a milling drum. Essential elements of the transport device include a support frame, a rotating device and a transport vehicle connector. The present invention further relates to a transport vehicle with a carrier vehicle and a transport device, as well as a method.

Transport device for a milling unit, transport vehicle with a transport device for a milling unit, and method for transporting a milling unit with a transport device

The present invention relates to a roll-off transport device, particularly a roll-off tipper, comprising a bottom structure, a connecting structure which is connected, particularly rigidly, to the bottom structure on the face side and protrudes upwardly therefrom, and a loading arm connection arranged on the connecting structure for the loading arm of a swap body vehicle. The present invention also relates to a transport unit comprising a swap body vehicle and a roll-off transport device according to the present invention.

Roll-off transport device, particularly a roll-off tipper, and transport unit having a swap body vehicle and a roll-off transport device

The present invention relates to a self-propelled ground milling machine, comprising a drive engine arranged in an engine compartment and an engine compartment enclosure which covers the engine compartment at least partly to the sides and to the top. A part of the engine compartment enclosure is a cover which is adjustable between a covering position and a maintenance position. At the same time, a maintenance platform is provided which is movable between a stowage position and a maintenance position. When the maintenance platform is in the maintenance position, an operator standing on the floor surface of the maintenance platform can carry out maintenance work in the engine compartment of the self-propelled ground milling machine. The self-propelled ground milling machine preferably is a road milling machine, more particularly a large milling machine, a surface miner, a stabilizer or a recycler.
