Abstract: A track chain assembly comprises a plurality of interlocking track chain members wherein each track chain member defines a track chain traveling direction, a lateral direction perpendicular to the track chain traveling direction, and includes a shoe member defining a shoe width along the lateral direction; and a first track pad member defining a first track pad maximum width along the lateral direction, and a second track pad member defining a second maximum track pad width along the lateral direction, wherein a ratio of either track pad maximum widths to the shoe member width ranges from 1:4 to 3:4. The first and the second track pad members each include a first projection disposed at one lateral extremity of the first track pad member and a second projection disposed at another lateral extremity of the second track pad member.

Abstract: A track chain member comprises a shoe member, and a first rail member extending from the shoe member, wherein the first rail member defines a track chain traveling direction and a lateral direction generally perpendicular to track chain traveling direction, a first support surface extending generally in both the track chain traveling direction and the lateral direction defining an outer lateral extremity, and a first crest shaped member disposed laterally adjacent the outer lateral extremity of the first support surface.

Abstract: A track shoe for a track of a large hydraulic excavator comprises a plate-shaped base having a substantially rectangular base surface and being defined in a circumferential direction by a left side surface, a right side surface, a front surface and a rear surface. The front surface and the rear surface include a front stopper and a rear stopper, respectively. The front stopper and the rear stopper limit a negative rotation of adjacent track shoes in the track to a predetermined angle.
