Definitions
- the invention relates to a ground milling machine, in particular a stabilizer or recycler, which has a machine frame supported by drives on which a milling/mixing roller is arranged, which is arranged in a roller housing which is open at the bottom and which has a roller flap at the rear in the working direction which can be pivoted about a pivot axis running transversely to the longitudinal direction of the ground milling machine.
- the invention relates to a method for operating such a ground milling machine.
- Stabilizers are known for stabilizing soils that do not have sufficient bearing capacity. These are used to introduce a powdered or liquid binding agent into the soil to increase its bearing capacity. There are self-propelled and non-self-propelled stabilizers that are attached to a towing vehicle or towed by a towing vehicle.
- the known recyclers differ from stabilizers in that the recyclers are not only used to improve or consolidate soils, but also to repair damaged surface layers of roads or paths.
- Stabilizers or recyclers have a machine frame on which a milling/mixing roller is arranged for milling the soil to be stabilized or the surface layer to be rehabilitated, which is located in a roller housing that is open at the bottom.
- the roller housing has a roller flap at the front in the working direction and a roller flap at the rear in the working direction, which can be pivoted about a pivot axis that runs transversely to the longitudinal direction of the machine frame.
- the roller housing is closed at the sides by side parts that extend in the longitudinal direction.
- the volume enclosed by the roller housing forms a mixing space for the milled material and the binding agent.
- a roller flap adjustment device which has at least one actuator for pivoting the front or rear roller flap and a control device for actuating the at least one actuator, so that the lower edge of the front or rear roller flap can be adjusted in height relative to the ground.
- the control device of the rear roller flap is designed such that the at least one actuator is controlled during milling operation such that the rear roller flap rests on the ground in a floating position with a predetermined contact force.
- the known stabilizers or recyclers have a milling/mixing roller adjustment device, which is designed such that the height of the milling/mixing roller can be adjusted relative to the machine frame, so that the milling depth can be changed.
- Such a stabilizer or recycler is from the US 2021/317621 known.
- the rear roller flap exerts a considerable counterpressure on the material in the roller housing, even in the floating position.
- this counterpressure can lead to a material jam in the mixing chamber. If there is a material jam, the mixing ratio of material and binding agent may no longer meet the specifications.
- Another disadvantage is that a higher power is required to operate the milling/mixing roller, or the milling process can only be carried out at a lower working speed.
- Raising the lower edge of the rear roller flap after attaching the milling/mixing roller or increasing the milling depth can prevent the accumulated material from the roller housing when the soil milling machine is fed forward.
- the rear roller flap is opened too far, there is a risk that material will be thrown backwards out of the roller housing.
- the invention is based on the object of improving the operation of a soil milling machine or its working results, in particular when the milling/mixing roller is set up to start milling or when the milling depth is increased during milling.
- One object of the invention is in particular to avoid a material jam when the milling/mixing roller is set up or when the milling depth is increased or to ensure an optimal mixing ratio of milled material and binding agent.
- a further object of the invention is to avoid an increase in the power required to operate the milling/mixing roller or a reduction in the working speed when the milling/mixing roller is set up or when the milling depth is increased.
- the soil milling machine according to the invention in particular a stabilizer or recycler, and the method according to the invention are characterized by a roller flap position correction mode, which can be activated manually or automatically after the milling/mixing roller has been attached and the soil milling machine has started or during the actual milling operation after the milling depth has been increased.
- the roller flap position correction mode includes at least one roller flap position correction cycle to optimize the position of the rear roller flap so that material accumulation and the resulting problems are largely avoided.
- the roller flap position correction mode can be activated manually by the machine operator or can be started fully automatically so that manual intervention is not necessary. Manual intervention is not required while the floor milling machine is operating in the roller flap position correction mode. After the roller flap position has been corrected, the roller flap position correction mode can be automatically deactivated again.
- the control device of the roller flap adjustment device is designed such that in the at least one roller flap correction cycle, in a first step the floating position of the rear roller flap is canceled and the rear roller flap is pivoted upwards from a first pivot position into a second pivot position so that the lower edge of the rear roller flap is raised. Consequently, the material accumulated in the roller housing can flow out.
- the pivot angle by which the roller flap is pivoted upwards can be specified by the control device.
- the roller housing should be opened wide enough so that accumulated material can flow out of the roller housing unhindered on the one hand, but on the other hand should not be opened so wide that there is a greater risk of material being thrown out.
- the floating position is reset so that the rear roller flap assumes a third pivot position in which the lower edge of the rear roller flap rests on the ground.
- the at least one roller flap position correction cycle includes a checking routine.
- the basic principle of the checking routine is to monitor the movement of the roller flap after the floating position has been reset.
- the checking routine provides for comparing a variable correlating with the third pivot position with a threshold value or comparing a variable correlating with the third pivot position with the value of a variable correlating with the first pivot position, wherein the roller flap position correction mode is deactivated on the basis of a comparison of the value of a variable correlating with the third pivot position with a threshold value or on the basis of a comparison of the value of a variable correlating with the third pivot position with the value of a variable correlating with the first pivot position.
- the raised roller flap falls back to a lower position after the floating position has been reset, i.e. does not remain in the raised position, it is assumed that a continuous material flow has been established in which the milled material accumulating in the mixing chamber and the material flowing out of the mixing chamber under the roller flap are in a state of equilibrium so that a material jam does not occur.
- it can be checked whether the roller flap sinks back to the position from which it was raised. In this case, the roller flap position correction mode can be deactivated.
- a threshold value can be defined for the movement of the roller flap. If the movement of the roller flap after resetting the floating position is less than or equal to the threshold value, i.e. the roller flap has not fallen back by a specified amount, another roller flap position correction cycle is carried out. If, on the other hand, the movement of the roller flap is greater than the threshold value, i.e. the roller flap has fallen back by a specified amount, the roller flap position correction mode is deactivated.
- the quantity correlating with the swivel positions can be a quantity that can be easily measured with little technical effort.
- the evaluation of the values of this quantity depends on whether the quantity increases or decreases when the roller flap is raised. For example, if the quantity is a swivel angle, the evaluation depends on which angle is defined as the swivel angle. Different mathematical methods can be used to compare the quantities correlating with the swivel positions before and after the milling flap is raised.
- the quantity correlating with the first and third pivot positions is a quantity correlating with the height of the lower edge of the rear roller flap. The value of this quantity increases when the roller flap is opened.
- the roller flap position correction cycles are carried out until it is determined at least once that the height of the lower edge of the rear roller flap in the third pivot position is equal to or less than the height of the lower edge of the rear roller flap in the first pivot position.
- a further roller flap position correction cycle is carried out if the height of the lower edge of the rear roller flap in the third pivot position is greater than the height of the lower edge of the rear roller flap in the first pivot position. Consequently, the roller flap position correction mode can be terminated after only one or more roller flap position correction cycles.
- the roller flap position correction mode can therefore only include one roller flap position correction cycle if it is only to be checked once that the lower edge of the rear roller flap in the third swivel position is equal to or less than the height of the lower edge of the rear roller flap in the first swivel position and this is also the case.
- the repeated determination of these conditions has the advantage that the roller flap position correction mode is only deactivated when a state of equilibrium has been permanently established.
- the height of the lower edge of the roller flap is a value related to a reference plane, which can be the unmilled floor. If the height of the floor relative to the machine frame or the roller housing is known, the height of the lower edge of the roller flap can be determined from the height of the roller flap relative to the machine frame or the roller housing.
- the at least one actuator of the roller flap adjustment device can be a piston-cylinder arrangement acting on the roller flap, wherein a measuring unit that detects the position of the piston of the piston-cylinder arrangement, in particular a distance sensor, can be provided to detect the variable correlating with the first and/or third pivot position.
- the piston of the piston-cylinder arrangement can be pivotally attached to the machine frame and its cylinder to the roller flap, or vice versa.
- This embodiment can be easily implemented without major technical effort.
- the comparison of the pivot positions can be carried out simply by comparing the stroke of the piston when raising with the stroke of the piston when lowering. If the piston is extended by a smaller distance when lowering than the piston was retracted when raising the roller flap, i.e. the roller flap maintains its upper position or is raised even further by the material flow, another roller flap position correction cycle is carried out. However, if the roller flap falls back to a lower position after being raised due to the lack of material flow, the test is terminated.
- the control device of the roller flap adjustment device is preferably designed such that the floating position is reset in the second step after a predetermined time interval has elapsed or after a predetermined distance has been covered after the floating position has been removed or the roller flap has been pivoted into the second pivot position.
- the time interval or the distance can be measured taking into account the dynamic conditions with regard to the material flow during milling operation.
- the swivel angle by which the roller flap is swiveled upwards depends on the volume of the milled material.
- a further preferred embodiment provides a memory in which a swivel angle or a value correlating with the swivel angle is stored for different milling depths, by which the rear roller flap is swiveled from the first to the second swivel position, wherein the control device of the roller flap adjustment device is designed such that the swivel angle or a value correlating with the swivel angle is read from the memory depending on the set milling depth.
- the control device of the roller flap adjustment device can have an operating element, for example a knob or switch or a button on a touch-sensitive screen (touch screen), wherein the control device is designed such that the roller flap position correction mode is activated by actuating the operating element.
- an operating element for example a knob or switch or a button on a touch-sensitive screen (touch screen)
- touch screen touch-sensitive screen
- the control device of the roller flap adjustment device can also be designed in such a way that the roller flap position correction mode is activated fully automatically when a predetermined time interval has elapsed after the ground milling machine has started to start milling or the ground milling machine has covered a predetermined distance.
- the point in time at which the ground milling machine starts can be determined by monitoring control signals that can be made available by the central control and computing device of the ground milling machine or by recording measured values from suitable sensors, for example distance sensors.

- the height of the milling/mixing roller 9 relative to the floor 6 is also possible by retracting or extending the lifting columns 4.
- a Fig. 1 A control device 18 (not shown) is provided, which provides a control and Computing unit 18A, which can form a separate control and computing unit or can be part of a central control and computing device of the ground milling machine (not shown) ( Fig. 2 ).
- a front and rear roller flap adjustment device 19 is provided for adjusting the position of the front and rear roller flaps 12, 13 in the working direction. In the embodiments described below, only the rear roller flap is considered.
- the roller flap adjustment device 19 of the rear roller flap 13 has at least one actuator 20 acting on the roller flap.

- the rear roller flap 13 can be pivoted up or down about the pivot axis 14 running transversely to the working direction into a predetermined pivot position ⁇ or by a predetermined pivot angle ⁇ , which correlates with the distance ⁇ a, so that the lower edge 13A of the roller flap 13 can be raised or lowered relative to the floor 6 ( Fig. 3A ).
- the roller flap adjustment device 19 has a Fig. 1 not shown control device 21, which comprises a control and computing unit 21A, which can form a separate control and computing unit or can be part of the central control and computing device of the ground milling machine ( Fig. 2 ).

- a data processing program software can run on the hardware components.
- a combination of the various components is also possible.
- the roller flap adjustment device 19 comprises further components known to the person skilled in the art, in particular hydraulic components, for example hydraulic pumps, hydraulic valves, hydraulic lines.
- the ground milling machine has a drive device (not shown) for hydraulic components, such as hydraulic pumps or hydraulic motors, for example to drive the undercarriages.
- the operator moves the soil milling machine into the desired position with the milling/mixing roller 9 raised.
- the lifting columns 4 are largely extended and the milling/mixing roller 9 is moved to an upper position ( Fig. 3A ).
- the lifting columns 4 are then largely retracted and the milling/mixing roller 9 is brought into a position in which it can 6. This process is also called scratching.
- the piston 20A of the piston-cylinder arrangement 20 is in the position "a 0 " and the roller flap 13 is in the swivel position " ⁇ 0 " ( Fig. 3B ).
- a zero adjustment takes place for the milling/mixing roller adjustment device 16, so that a further lowering of the milling/mixing roller or a movement of the piston 17A of the piston-cylinder arrangement 17 of the milling/mixing roller adjustment device 16 by a predetermined distance corresponds to the milling depth. It must be taken into account that the change in length of the piston-cylinder arrangement does not necessarily have to correspond to a change in milling depth in a ratio of 1:1. The change in milling depth can be calculated from the stroke of the piston 17A, taking the geometric conditions into account.
- the zero adjustment establishes a reference plane which corresponds to the surface of the unmilled ground 6.
- the milling depth can thus be set via the distance to be covered by which the milling/mixing roller 9 is lowered relative to the machine frame 5 or the ground surface or the piston 17A is extended or retracted, or the milling depth can be determined from the distance covered when the milling/mixing roller is lowered or the piston is moved.

- a hydraulic valve 22 connects the upper and lower cylinder chambers of the piston-cylinder arrangement via the hydraulic lines 23, 24 connected to the cylinder connections 20 for raising and lowering the rear roller flap 13 with a hydraulic tank (not shown) so that the chambers are not subjected to system pressure.
- the hydraulic valve 22 is a 4/3 way valve.
- the hydraulic lines leading to the hydraulic valve 22 are in Fig. 2 not shown for the sake of simplicity. Since no specific hydraulic force acts on the cylinder, the piston 20A can move in the cylinder 20B so that the roller flap 13 moves downwards due to its weight.
- one or the other hydraulic line 23, 24 can be subjected to the system pressure (pressure line) or connected to the tank (tank line) so that the piston 20A is moved up or down.
- the roller flap adjustment device 19 can also be designed in such a way that the roller flap 13 does not rest on the ground with its own weight, but is loaded or relieved with an additional contact force. If both chambers are subjected to a pressure in the floating position, but this pressure preferably does not correspond to the system pressure, the downward movement of the roller flap can be supported by a corresponding design of the effective contact surfaces of the cylinder, for example if the pressure in both cylinder chambers is the same.
- the invention can also be implemented by a roller flap adjustment device 19 with a single-acting piston-cylinder arrangement.
- a single-acting piston-cylinder arrangement is characterized by the fact that it can only be operated in one direction.
- the roller flap adjustment device 19 only needs to be able to raise the roller flap.
- the floating position is achieved by the fact that, when no hydraulic pressure is applied to the piston-cylinder arrangement, the roller flap sinks in the direction of gravity due to its own weight.
- the mixing chamber of the roller housing 8 fills with the milled material, which is deposited behind the milling/mixing roller 9 in the working direction.
- FIGS 3C and 3D show the roller housing 8 when attaching the milling/mixing roller 9 ( Fig. 3C ) and after starting the soil milling machine ( Fig. 3D ).
- the mixing chamber is increasingly filled with milled material 25, whereby a certain angle of repose is established depending on the feed rate and the material properties.
- Fig. 3D shows the time at which the material 25 has reached the rear roller flap 13.
- the rear roller flap 13 Since the rear roller flap 13 is in the floating position, the rear roller flap can move away, which in Fig. 3E is indicated when the mixing chamber continues to fill with material as the milling machine advances (a 1 , ⁇ 1 or ⁇ a 1 , ⁇ 1 ).
- the aim is that the Fig. 3F shown equilibrium state between milled and deposited material is established, in which the lower edge 13A of the rear roller flap 13 in the floating position rests on the material 25 thrown up to the rear and closes the roller housing 8 at the rear, whereby the material is pulled off the rear roller flap.

- Fig. 3H shows the time at which the rear roller flap 13 has taken the third swivel position (h 31 ) after resetting the floating position. Since milled material has flowed in in the meantime, it can be seen that the third swivel position ( Fig. 3H ) largely the second swivel position ( Fig. 3G ), ie in the present embodiment h 31 ⁇ h 21.

- the rear roller flap 13 still exerts a considerable counterpressure on the material, so that material can continue to build up. This applies both to the case of starting up and to the case of increasing the milling depth.
- another roller flap position correction cycle is carried out.
- the roller flap position correction cycles are carried out until it is determined that the Fig. 3F shown equilibrium state has been established.

- the piston 20A of the piston-cylinder arrangement 20 of the roller flap adjustment device 19 is retracted by a predetermined distance ⁇ a.
- the floating position is then switched on again so that the rear roller flap 13 drops into a third pivot position (h 32 ) ( Fig. 3K ).
- the control device again records the distance ⁇ a that the piston 20A of the piston-cylinder arrangement 20 of the roller flap adjustment device 19 has moved when pivoting from the second to the third pivot position.
- the check routine described above is then carried out again.
- the roller flap 13 If the distance ⁇ a is less than or equal to the threshold value, ie the roller flap 13, such as the Figures 3I to 3K show, has not fallen back by a minimum amount from the second pivot position, it is not concluded that an equilibrium state has been reached and the checking cycle is repeated. If, however, the distance ⁇ a is greater than the threshold value, ie the roller flap has fallen back, it is concluded that an equilibrium state has been reached. The checking cycle is repeated until the Fig. 3F shown equilibrium state has been established, ie it is determined that the distance ⁇ a is greater than the threshold value.

- the roller flap position correction mode is then deactivated.
- the roller flap position correction mode is not yet deactivated if it is only determined once that the distance ⁇ a is greater than the threshold value. Instead, a further check cycle is carried out to check whether the roller flap falls back again by an amount that is greater than the threshold value.
- a state of equilibrium is determined on the basis of a comparison of the value of the third pivot position ( Fig. 3H ) correlating quantity, which in the present embodiment is the distance a 3 or ⁇ as, with the value of the value associated with the first swivel position ( Fig. 3E ) correlating quantity, which in the present embodiment is the distance a 1 or ⁇ a 1. If an equilibrium state has been determined at least once, the checking routine is terminated and the roller flap position correction mode is deactivated. Otherwise, another checking cycle is carried out.
- control device 21 of the roller flap adjusting device 19 is configured such that the distance ⁇ a (hereinafter referred to as ⁇ A) by which the piston 20A of the piston-cylinder arrangement 20 of the roller flap adjusting device 19 is retracted to raise the rear roller flap 13 is compared with the distance ⁇ a (hereinafter referred to as ⁇ B) by which the piston of the piston-cylinder arrangement is extended when the rear roller flap falls back, ie the amount by which the roller flap is raised is compared with the amount by which the milling/mixing roller falls back.
- the control device carries out another roller flap position correction mode when the distance ⁇ B is smaller than the distance ⁇ A.
- the roller flap position correction mode is deactivated when it is determined that the distance ⁇ B is equal to the distance ⁇ A or greater than the distance ⁇ A.
- the roller flap thus remains in the floating position and is pulled floating over the surface of the milled soil.
- the roller flap position correction mode is only deactivated when the distance ⁇ B is equal to the distance ⁇ A or greater than the distance ⁇ A in at least two consecutive roller flap position correction cycles.
- the Fig. 3G or Fig. 3J shows the rear roller flap 13 in the second swivel position and Fig. 3H or Fig. 3K shows that the roller flap has pivoted upwards into the third pivot position (h 31 >h 11 or h 32 >h 12 ) compared to the first pivot position, since material has flowed in in the meantime, ie the roller flap has lowered itself after a predetermined time interval or after covering a predetermined distance by an amount that is smaller than the amount by which the roller flap was raised, which is determined by comparing the recorded distances ⁇ A and ⁇ B.
- the height of the lower edge 13A of the roller flap 13 is in the third pivot position ( Fig. 3H or Fig. 3K ) higher than before lifting (3E or Fig.
- the control device 21 of the roller flap adjustment device 19 can also be configured in such a way that the roller flap position correction mode can only be automatically activated again when the milling/mixing roller has been returned to the zero position. This prevents the roller flap position correction mode from being automatically activated after a temporary standstill of the soil milling machine.
