Abstract: An endless track for providing traction to a vehicle, such as a construction vehicle, an agricultural vehicle or other work vehicle. The endless track has: an inner side for facing a plurality of wheels of the vehicle; a ground-engaging outer side for engaging the ground; a first lateral edge; and a second lateral edge. The endless track comprises an elastomeric body and a plurality of cores at least partially embedded in the elastomeric body. Each core extends transversally to a longitudinal direction of the endless track to provide transverse rigidity to the endless track. The endless track comprises an impact absorber in a lateral edge part of the endless track, the lateral edge part being located between the cores and a given one of the first lateral edge and the second lateral edge. The impact absorber facilitates an elastic deformation of the lateral edge part when the lateral edge part impacts an obstacle on the ground.

Abstract: An endless track for traction of a work vehicle. The endless track comprises a body of elastomeric material and a plurality of cores at least partially embedded in the elastomeric material. Each core comprises a pair of wings extending transversally to a longitudinal axis of the endless track, and a wheel guide comprising at least one guide projection projecting on an inner side of the endless track. Each guide projection comprises a top end and a wheel-facing side for facing wheels of the work vehicle, such as roller wheels that roll on the inner side of the endless track. The wheel-facing side comprises a recess to impede passage of grit between the wheel-facing side and a portion of the elastomeric material in the recess. This can enhance a wear resistance of the endless track.
