Abstract
Method for laying down a pavement consisting of paving material with a road paver screed in which a compaction unit pre-compacts the paving material at cyclical work cycles with a selectable stroke and at a selectable frequency while the pavement is laid down at a selectable paving speed and at least the stroke is automatically adjustable in response to paving parameters.
Claims6
A screed for road pavers, comprising a compaction unit with a tamper bar driven by an eccentric drive in cyclical work cycles with a selectable stroke and at a selectable frequency relative to a sole plate of the screed for pre-compacting a pavement made from paving material,
- wherein the eccentric drive in the compaction unit comprises an adjusting drive for the remote-controlled automatic adjustment of the stroke of the tamper bar,
- wherein the adjusting drive cooperating with a rotatingly drivable eccentric shaft and an eccentric bushing arranged on the eccentric shaft in a rotationally fixed manner being displaceable in a direction transverse to the axis of the eccentric shaft, the eccentric bushing being rotatable in a connecting rod driving the tamper bar, such that the stroke of the tamper bar is adjustable by a transverse displacement of the eccentric bushing relative to the eccentric shaft,
- the eccentric shaft and the transversely adjustable eccentric bushing coupled by guide blocks with the eccentric shaft in a rotationally fixed manner have provided therein the guide blocks adjustable in a direction transverse to the eccentric shaft by means of at least one control rod of the adjusting drive, the control rod being guided in the eccentric shaft in an axially shiftable manner, each of the guide blocks having an inclined guide surface, and
- wherein each inclined guide surface of a respective guide block radially abuts in an axially moveable manner on an inclined ramp in the eccentric bushing or on the control rod.
A screed for road pavers, comprising a compaction unit with a tamper bar driven by an eccentric drive in cyclical work cycles with a selectable stroke and at a selectable frequency relative to a sole plate of the screed for pre-compacting a pavement made from paving material,
- wherein the eccentric drive in the compaction unit comprises an adjusting drive for the remote-controlled automatic adjustment of the stroke of the tamper bar,
- wherein the adjusting drive cooperating with a rotatingly drivable eccentric shaft and an eccentric bushing arranged on the eccentric shaft in a rotationally fixed manner being displaceable in a direction transverse to the axis of the eccentric shaft, the eccentric bushing being rotatable in a connecting rod driving the tamper bar, such that the stroke of the tamper bar is adjustable by a transverse displacement of the eccentric bushing relative to the eccentric shaft,
- wherein the eccentric shaft and the transversely adjustable eccentric bushing coupled by guide blocks with the eccentric shaft in a rotationally fixed manner have provided therein the guide blocks adjustable in a direction transverse to the eccentric shaft by means of at least one control rod of the adjusting drive, the control rod being guided in the eccentric shaft in an axially shiftable manner, each of the guide blocks having an inclined guide surface, and
- wherein each inclined guide surface of a respective guide block radially abuts on an inclined guide ramp of the at least one axially shiftable control rod.
