The invention concerns a device for ground compacting, having at least one vibrating roller whose casing surface is composed of a plurality of segments in the peripheral direction, at least some of which have midpoints which describe an arc having a radius of curvature that deviates from the mean radius of the roller. In order to smooth the jolting movement resulting from the shape of the rollers in devices of this type, it is proposed to construct the tire casing of the roller from several sections lying adjacent to one another in the axial direction, said sections having segments abutting one another in the peripheral direction, whereby the abutting edges are displaced vis-&agrave;-vis one another in the peripheral direction.

Device for earth packing having at least one vibrating roller

A device for checking the compaction, in particular, of black top pavement in street and roadway construction, using a vibration roller drum that is provided with a compaction checking device is provided. In the compaction of black top pavement, the measurement methods of the dynamic ground rigidity, known from ground compaction, for determining the condition of compaction that has been achieved, can not be used since the asphalt rigidity varies between two measurements with the temperature and in addition, the underground rigidity is measured with it proportionately. In order to solve these problems, a second vibration roller drum is provided which has a second compaction checking device, whereby the second vibration roller drum is coupled to the first vibration roller drum essentially following it in the same track. In this way, for the comparison of the values determined, the temperature dependence of the measurement values determined is eliminated. Furthermore, an evaluation unit is present, which compares the measurement results of the two compaction checking devices. In this way, the underground rigidity is eliminated in the measurement values.

Device for checking the compaction for vibration compaction devices

Dynamic soil packing can be achieved by a procedure and device whereby the vibratory motion of the roller or one of the parts attached to it is determined, and whereby the vertical component of the vibratory force is diminished in the event of a disturbance (e.g., bouncing) of the basic roller vibration. The packing device is one having at least two exciter shafts synchronously rotating in opposite directions and arranged parallel to or in alignment with the roller axis for generating a vibrating motion, the exciter shafts being adjustable in their position and/or phase relationship so that the resulting centrifugal force electively exerts horizontal shearing forces and/or vertical compressive forces in the soil. A motion sensor determines the vibratory motion, such as amplitude, acceleration or periodicity thereof, and in connection with a control loop and adjustable pivot bearing adjusts the horizontal and vertical components of the motion to eliminate the disturbance.

Process and apparatus for dynamic soil packing

In apparatus for monitoring the degree of compaction achieved by a compacting device including at least one vibrating compacting tool which device is mounted on a vehicle arranged to travel back and forth over a surface to be compacted, the apparatus including a system for detecting the value of an operating parameter which has a known relationship to the effective power of the vibrating compacting tool during each pass of the vehicle over the surface and which is representative of the degree of compaction achieved, there are further provided a representation storage system connected to the detecting system for separately storing representations of the detected values associated with each direction of travel of the vehicle, and a difference forming unit connected to the storage system for providing a representation of the difference between detected values associated with successive passes of the vehicle in the same direction.
