Abstract:
A metallic core for a rubber track includes wing portions to be embedded in an elastic member of the rubber track, an engaging portion at the center of the core for engaging a driving sprocket, and a pair of protrusions provided on both sides of the engaging portion and projecting from the inner circumferential surface of the rubber track. Each of the protrusions is provided with at least one extension extending in the longitudinal direction of the rubber track, and the top surfaces at the extension and at the center of the protrusion for rolling an idler thereon are connected to each other with a surface gently inclined downward toward the center of the protrusion, thereby maintaining idlers rolling on the metallic cores of a rubber track at a substantially constant level without upward and downward movements. The protrusions may be formed with shoulders along their longitudinal directions and in symmetry with each other to form upper top surfaces which are flat for an upper idler and lower top surfaces for a lower idler, the lower top surfaces at the extensions are higher than those at the centers of the protrusions.

Abstract:
An elastic endless crawler according to the present invention comprises an annular belt-shaped elastic crawler body and a plurality of cords with ends, said cords being disposed substantially parallel with one another at predetermined intervals and embedded in the crawler body, wherein one end and the other end of each cord are overlapped, as seen from the belt side. Further, at at least one of a crawler inner peripheral side and a crawler outer peripheral side, there are provided a plurality of members for holding the cord ends within the crawler body. As a result, a chance of free ends of embedded steel cords protruding out from the rubber body during use of the rubber crawler and a chance of the rubber crawler running off of a unit for driving for rotation thereof can be eliminated.
