Method and apparatus for adjusting the transverse position of a mobile construction machine

摘要

The procedure provides adjustment and control of the transverse position of at least part of a working vehicle (2), carrying out road or land works on a terrain (3). The process includes determination of the theoretical transverse position of the vehicle, and adjustment of this during the vehicle's movement using a repetitive cycle of measurement and adjustment. The process includes remote measurement of the profile of the terrain and, as a result of this, determination of the theoretical position. Measurement is made w.r.t. a number of distant points (P) on the terrain.
