TRACK AND WHEEL FOR A TRACK SYSTEM, AND TRACK SYSTEM COMPRISING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240043078 titled 'TRACK AND WHEEL FOR A TRACK SYSTEM, AND TRACK SYSTEM COMPRISING THE SAME
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a track system that consists of a track with a ground-facing side and a wheel-facing side. The track has lugs that define a wheel path for the wheels of a track engaging assembly to roll on. The wheel path includes track side portions and an intermediate track portion. The distance between the base of the lugs and the ground-facing side varies depending on the load supported by the wheel.
- The track system has a ground-facing side and a wheel-facing side.
- Lugs on the track define a wheel path for the wheels of a track engaging assembly.
- The wheel path includes track side portions and an intermediate track portion.
- The distance between the base of the lugs and the ground-facing side changes based on the load supported by the wheel.
Potential Applications:
- Construction machinery and equipment
- Agricultural machinery and equipment
- Military vehicles
- Off-road vehicles
Problems Solved:
- Provides stability and control for vehicles operating on uneven terrain
- Reduces the risk of wheel slippage and loss of traction
- Allows for efficient movement and maneuverability in challenging environments
Benefits:
- Improved performance and safety in off-road conditions
- Enhanced stability and load-bearing capacity
- Increased traction and control for vehicles operating on various surfaces
Original Abstract Submitted
a track for a track system has a ground-facing side and a wheel-facing side including lugs having a base and defining a wheel path on which wheels of a track engaging assembly rolls on, the wheel path having first and second track side portions, and an intermediate track portion. when the wheel supports a load smaller than a nominal load, a distance between the base and the ground-facing side is smaller than a distance between the intermediate track portion and the ground-facing side. when the wheel supports a load equal or greater than the nominal load, a distance between the base and the ground-facing side is substantially equal to or smaller than a distance between the intermediate track portion and the ground-facing side. a wheel for a track system is also described. a track system comprising a wheel and a track is also described.
