Zusammenfassung:A control system for a road grader adapted to maintain the working edge of the grader blade in a preset datum plane so as to establish a uniform graded condition of the surface worked by the blade, regardless of the inclination assumed by the motor grader or the relative angular position of the blade itself. The system includes grade sensor means mounted adjacent one end of the blade to follow a pre-selected grade datum, slope sensing means mounted in fixed relation with the blade for keeping the blade at a predetermined slope with rotary position sensing means mounted on the blade supporting ring or circle to detect the relative angular position of the blade, and longitudinal grade angle sensing means with rotary position sensing means for altering the control signals to compensate for grade changes and rotary position of the blade.
