Abstract: This invention describes a track guide, used with endless tracks mounted over tires of off-road vehicles, preventing laterally rolling off the inner or outer surfaces of the drive tires. The track guide counteracts, grips and controls the lateral slippage of the endless track dislodging from the drive tires, caused by conditions such as tensioned forces, sharp power-on turns in snow, ice, mud, sand and all other situations. The track guide effectively improves the ride and maneuverability of off road vehicles.

Abstract: This invention describes a compact, light weight, durable, quiet in operation, economical, chain tensioning device with means for controlling chain slack between two drive sprockets, found in all terrain vehicles or the like. The assembly comprises a chain tensioning device which is spaced between the two drive sprockets. The chain tensioning device is easy to assemble, install and adjust. The device exerts a modest pre-load tension pressure, requires infrequent adjustment and is suitable for reversed loads.

Abstract: The following invention describes a compact, lightweight, economical means of attaching chain drive sprocket hubs securely to half axles assembly rotatable along a transverse axle rotation axis, found in all-terrain-vehicles or the like. The assembly comprises a half axle and sprocket hub each having a cross-hole corresponding in size and aligned with each other. The cross-hole in the half axle is threaded and a bolt passes through both the cross-hole in sprocket hub and the threaded cross-hole of the half axle. Axle/flange bearings are located on either side of the chain drive sprocket hub and the inner end of the half axle is threaded to accommodate a flanged nut.

Abstract: A reversing drive or transmission is shown which is particularly useful for all-terrain vehicles. The drive includes a drive shaft and an intermediate axle spaced therefrom. The drive shaft and intermediate axle have respective pulley and drum assemblies mounted thereon in registration, with a V-belt coupling the drive and driven pulleys. A swing arm moves the intermediate axle toward and away from the drive shaft to tension the V-belt or alternatively engage the drive wheels for reverse rotation of the intermediate axle. An intermediate sprocket mounted on the intermediate axle drives a driven sprocket co-axially mounted on the pivot axis of the swing arm. The plane of rotation of the intermediate sprocket is transversely orientated with respect to the swing arm pivot axis, so that torsional forces on the intermediate sprocket tend to reinforce the engagement between the respective pulley and drum assemblies in the forward and reverse directions.

Abstract: A reflector assembly for fluorescent luminaires. The reflector assembly improves the lumen output of the fixture by bringing light from the backside of the lamps around the lamps and out of the luminaire. Access to the ballast of the luminaire is improved by providing a removable section of the reflector assembly located over the ballast.
