摘要： A suspension system for a tracked vehicle, preferably having rubber tracks. The track assembly is mounted on a pivot shaft such that it can oscillate about the axis of the pivot shaft. The suspension system allows the track assembly to move vertically relative to the vehicle chassis to compensate for uneven terrain. For instance the track assembly can compensate for depressions or bumps in the terrain and preclude the chassis of the vehicle from tilting with each minor change in the terrain. In addition, the track assembly movement in the vertical direction provides a much smoother ride than do traditional tracked vehicles. The suspension system of the present invention is provided for use with a pair of track assemblies.

摘要： A crawler or tracked vehicle has a running gear with separately operable tracks, and a vehicle body pivotably connected to the running gear about a substantially horizontal pivot axis that allows the running gear to pivot relative to the vehicle body. The two tracks can pivot independently of each other and independently of the vehicle body. At least one spring arrangement preferably including a spring and a shock absorber is arranged on each side of the body, and is respectively connected between the running gear and the vehicle body. The spring may be vertically or horizontally oriented.

摘要： The present invention provides a track frame connecting structure of a heavy work vehicle that can minimize the amount of up and down movement of the ends of an equalizer bar, so as to make track frames have a sufficiently wide range of straight-line motion for a heavy work vehicle like a tractor. In the track frame connecting structure of a working vehicle in which an equalizer bar which is pivotally mounted on a body is connected to connecting links, the connecting links and the track frames are connected with each other, the connecting links and limiting links are connected with each other, and the links and the body are connected with each other. In addition, the ratio of the distance between an axis S1 of the connecting link 110 and an axis L of the limiting links 120 to the distance between an axis P1 of the equalizer bar 3a and an axis K of the center pin 2 is set substantially equal to the ratio of the distance between an axis Q1 of the connecting link 110 and the axis P1 of the equalizer bar 3a to the distance between the axis of the connecting link Q1 and the axis S1 of the connecting link. The axes Q1, P1, S1 are arranged on a straight line, and the straight line which connects the axes Q1, P1, S1 is set substantially parallel to a body vertical center XX of the body.
