  • Patent number: 10343735
    Abstract: A rubber track chain segment (1, 2) which can be connected via connecting devices (5) at the ends thereof to other rubber track chain segments (2) or to itself (1) to form a segmentable rubber track chain (3), wherein one or more tensile members (4) are introduced between the connecting devices (5) into the rubber track segment (1, 2) in order to increase the tensile load-bearing capability, wherein nipples are arranged at the ends of the tensile members (4), which nipples are set up to be received in an undercut of the connecting devices (5), the rubber band track segment (1, 2) has flexible regions (9) and less flexible regions (8) in an alternating manner, and the ends of the tensile members (4) are positioned in the less flexible regions (8) at the ends of the rubber band track segment (1, 2) so that the tensile members (4), from the exit (19) out of the nipples, run along as long a section (21) as possible through the less flexible regions (8) before they run through the adjoining flexible regions (9).

  • Patent number: 9457851
    Abstract: A crawler track for a crawler tracked vehicle is configured for running via a drive wheel and via bogie wheels. The crawler track has an outer ground contact side and an inner wheel contact side. The inner wheel contact side is formed with a flat surface from which a plurality of guide horns project to guide the crawler track during the movement of the crawler tracked vehicle. At least parts of the flat surface serve as the running surface for the bogie wheels. Cavities are formed in the flat surface for the engagement of drive pegs of the drive wheel.
