Patent attributes
This invention relates to a control unit for an unbalanced mass adjusting device in a vibration generator, in particular in a soil compaction machine, having an adjusting cylinder which is hydraulically adjustable to adjust a relative position of contrarotating unbalanced masses in the vibration generator, having a control valve to adjust the adjusting cylinder so that the vibration behavior of the vibration generator is adjusted and having a control unit for triggering the control valve according to a pulse width modulation signal to adjust the relative position of the unbalanced masses as a function of the pulse duty factor of the pulse width modulation signal.
