  • Publication number: 20240034423
    Abstract: A suspended undercarriage assembly connectable to a multi-member frame assembly of a track system includes a beam having a leading portion and a trailing portion, at least one support wheel assembly connectable to the beam, at least one of a leading resilient bushing assembly and a trailing resilient bushing assembly including a bushing having an opening defined therein and being shaped and dimensioned for promoting deformation of the bushing in at least one of a vertical direction and a lateral direction. The bushing is resiliently deformable to permit movement of the beam relative to the multi-member frame assembly in the vertical direction and in the lateral direction, and to resiliently bias the beam towards a rest position with respect to the multi-member frame assembly. A track system having the suspended undercarriage assembly is also provided.

  • Publication number: 20230089165
    Abstract: A suspended undercarriage assembly connectable to a track system including a frame member has a resilient assembly. The resilient assembly includes a first arm connected to the frame member, a second arm pivotally connected to the first arm, a spacing defined between the first and second arms, and a resilient member disposed in the spacing and connected to the first and second arms. The resilient member is resiliently deformable to permit movement of the second arm relative to the first arm, and to resiliently bias the second arm towards a rest position with respect to the first arm. The suspended undercarriage assembly provides suspension to a support wheel assembly relative to the frame member when connected to the second arm.

  • Publication number: 20230044095
    Abstract: A multi-member frame assembly for a track system includes a pivot pin defining a pivot axis, a leading frame member pivotally connected to the pivot pin for pivoting about the pivot axis, and a trailing frame member pivotally connected to the pivot pin for pivoting about the pivot axis, the trailing frame member pivoting independently from the leading frame member. A resilient member is pivotally connected to the leading frame member and to the trailing frame member. The resilient member extends generally vertically between the leading frame member and the trailing frame member. A track system having a multi-member frame assembly is also described.
