  • Publication number: 20250136203
    Abstract: A track system for traction of an off-road vehicle such as a snowmobile or an all-terrain vehicle (ATV). The track system comprises a track-engaging assembly and a track disposed around the track-engaging assembly. The track system may be configured to have a reduced noise profile so as to generate less noise, enhanced track rigidity characteristics to improve its traction and floatation, and/or other features improving use and performance of the off-road vehicle.

  • Patent number: 12097914
    Abstract: A track for traction of a vehicle (e.g., a snowmobile), in which the track is studded, i.e., comprises studs, to enhance its traction, including to optimize acceleration, control, and/or braking of the vehicle, such as, for example, by increasing engagement of the studs with a ground on which the vehicle travels (e.g., increasing their number and/or exposure) and/or improving retention of the studs in the track (e.g., better orienting and/or anchoring them), while being lightweight, reducing noise, and/or withstanding high speeds.

  • Publication number: 20240270332
    Abstract: A track for traction of a vehicle (e.g., a snowmobile, an all-terrain vehicle (ATV) etc.). The track being movable around a track-engaging assembly comprising a drive wheel to drive the track. In one embodiment, the track comprising: a carcass comprising a ground-engaging outer surface for engaging the ground and an inner surface opposite to the ground-engaging outer surface; and a plurality of traction projections projecting from the ground-engaging outer surface; wherein: a thickness of the carcass from the ground-engaging outer surface to the inner surface is no more than 0.20 inches; and a ratio of a widthwise rigidity of the carcass over a longitudinal rigidity of the carcass is at least 1.5.

  • Publication number: 20210078656
    Abstract: A track system for traction of a vehicle (e.g., a snowmobile, an all-terrain vehicle (ATV) etc.). The track system comprises a track and a track-engaging assembly for driving and guiding the track around the track-engaging assembly. The track system may have various features to enhance its traction, floatation, and/or other aspects of its performance, including, for example, a lightweight design, enhanced tractive effects, an enhanced heat management capability, an enhanced resistance to lateral skidding (e.g., on a side hill), an adaptive capability to adapt itself to different conditions (e.g., ground conditions, such as different types of snow, soil, etc.; and/or other conditions), an adjustability of a contact area of its track with the ground, and/or other features.
