Abstract: A rubber crawler has a core of generally parallelepiped blocks (5) each having two longitudinally spaced through holes (9) in the lower surface region and bars (4) inserted in the through holes (9), the generally parallelepiped blocks (5) being arranged in two series, with the blocks of one of the series laterally overlapping the blocks of the other series, and with sprocket engaging holes (2) disposed therebetween, and the bars (4) being inserted in alternately corresponding through holes (9) in adjacent generally parallelepiped blocks (5), the bars (4) being connected within the generally parallelepiped blocks (5), the bars (4) being connected within the generally parallelepiped blocks (5) and embedded in the rubber crawler.
Abstract: A rubber endless track belt assembly for use in a crawler type track mechanism, which has a rubber endless track belt and a plurality of metal cores embedded at an equal spaced distance to one another in the belt along the longitudinal direction thereof. Each of the metal cores is provided with a pair of intermediate guide lugs spaced apart from each other and projecting outwardly on the inner peripheral side of the belt, a pair of wing portions each projecting horizontally in the transverse direction of the belt and embedded therein, and a pair of flat surface zones to which bogie wheels are thrustedly and rotatingly contacted, each of which zones being formed between the guide lug and the wing portion so as to extend in the longitudinal direction of the belt over the width of the wing portion and to be exposed on the inner peripheral side of the belt.
Abstract: A crawler assembly aiming at preventing bogie wheels from detaching from a track, stabilizing the running of the bogie wheels and making it possible to use the crawler assembly for an endless rubber belt having core bars embedded therein and also for an endless iron caterpillar.
