METHOD FOR POSITIVE DRIVE OF ENDLESS TRACK FOR COMPACT TRACK LOADER AND CONSTRUCTION EQUIPMENT

摘要

Compact track loaders include a main body having a pair of axles extending from opposing sides of the main body and an engine which drives the pair of axles, and two track suspension systems, where each of the two track suspension systems is securely attached to each axle of the pair of axles, and the suspension system includes a positive drive wheel, a chassis, a front idler, a rear idler, and a plurality of rollers. An endless track is securely and movingly mounted onto each of the track suspension systems, and the endless track includes an elongate carcass, an outer portion having a plurality of ground engaging tread lugs, and an inner portion having a plurality of elastomeric guide-drive lugs. Only the two track suspension systems propel and steer the compact track loader, and vibration level is decreased up to 3 dB, 5 dB, or even 7 dB.
