Abstract: An undercarriage structure (12) for a track-type vehicle (10) has first and second spaced apart roller frame assemblies (14, 16) which are interconnected by a pivot shaft (18) and an equalizer bar (20). The first and second roller frame assemblies (14, 16) are so arranged with respect to the pivot shaft (18) and the equalizer bar (20) that the roller frame assemblies (14, 16) are substantially non-parallel to each other. This non-parallelism produces either "toe-out" or "toe-in" of the roller frame assemblies (14, 16), which results in the endless track contacting the track rollers in different areas as the vehicle (10) travels in forward and then reverse directions. The wear life of the endless track is thereby prolonged.

Abstract: Spherical joints of the type pivotally connecting each end of an equalizer bar to a track roller frame of a track-type vehicle require positive sealing of the joints during operation of the vehicle wherein the joint undergoes compound movements. Standard sealing assemblies therefor are prone to failure since they are subjected to tensile and compressive forces during operation thereof. The improved seal assembly (15) of this invention substantially prevents the imposition of such forces thereon by including structure (23) for permitting flexing thereof.

Abstract: An energy-absorbing preloaded pad assembly (17, 117) for use in stabilizing relatively movable portions of a structure, such as vehicle structure (10). The stabilizing pad assemblies may be utilized for stabilizing oscillations of a stabilizer bar (12) relative to a frame (11) of a vehicle (10) and may include preloaded pads (19). A removable clamp (21, 121) cooperates with a cover plate (20, 120) of the pad assembly to provide the desired preload to the pad and permit facilitated installation of the stabilizer bar in the vehicle structure, such as to permit ready installation of the pivot structure (113). Upon assembly of the vehicle structure, the removable clamp (21, 121) is disassembled permitting reuse thereof with other similar pad assemblies. Removal of the clamp frees the pad for stabilizing functioning in the assembly in the normal manner. In one form, the pad baseplate is secured to the stabilizer bar by bolts disposed substantially at the neutral axis of the stabilizer bar and in another form, the baseplate is retained on the stabilizer bar by a pair of downwardly turned securing portions (132a, 123b) and an end tongue (138).

Abstract: A lock assembly (40) for coupling a track roller frame (18) to a main frame (12) of a track type machine (10) is disclosed. The lock assembly (40) may be quickly assembled and disassembled for efficient coupling and decoupling of the track roller frame (18) to the main frame (12). The lock assembly (40) may have a lock chamber (42) defined in the track roller frame (18). The lock chamber (42) provides entry of a pivot shaft (30) having an indentation (45) spaced from a free end (31). The indentation (45) may be positioned in the lock chamber (42). A wedge (52) may be inserted into the indentation (45) and to abut a shoulder (44) in the chamber to couple the pivot shaft (30) to the track roller frame (18). A holding member (60) may be positioned between a wall (46) of the chamber and a free outer side (54) of the wedge (52) to hold the wedge (52) in the indentation (45). An end cap (70) may be mountable to the track roller frame (18) to retain the holding member (60) between the wedge (52) and the wall (46).
