Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9630595A1] The invention concerns a double-belt soil-compacting device (5) having a pivoting steering system for the two belts (13a, 13b) and a control unit which is connected to a first and a second belt-pivoting unit and by means of which a first pivoting angle of the first belt (13a) can be automatically adjusted by means of a control unit in non-linear dependence relative to the second pivoting angle of the second, other belt (13b) during a pivoting process. Consequently, the transition from track-following to crab-like travel behaviour and vice versa with the two belts (13a, 13b) mutually offset laterally (d) can be carried out automatically, in particular without meandering. Owing to the easy transition from track-following to crab-like travel behaviour, the device can travel along, and very close to, a boundary without the risk of damaging said boundary during the transition.
