Abstract (en)

A device for automatic control of the contact pressure of the levelling unit (1) of a finishing machine for road paving on the material to be spread, also comprising means for regulating the hydraulic fluid pressure and its circuit, comprising electro-distributors, non-return valves (44), maximum pressure valves (26) and at least one accumulating chamber (28), characterized in that the hydraulic circuit is assisted by an electric circuit for transmission of signals; that in said hydraulic circuit an electrically-controlled valve (45) for pressure adjustment and an electro-manometer (46), both connected to the cited electric circuit, are inserted. To the same electric circuit an amplifying comparator (47) and a trimmer (48) are also connected, while a sensing device (49) capable of measuring elongations is also connected to the electric system and measures continuously the width of the spread layer and transmits this value through the electric circuit to the comparator (47) which, in turn, acts upon the pressure regulating valve (45) for possible corrections, thus maintaining constant the pressure of the levelling device (1) on the material to be spread.
