A support structure for a track system is disclosed. The support structure has leading and trailing linkages which are pivotally connectable to a frame member of the track system through, respectively, leading and trailing pivots. The leading linkage is pivotally connected to the trailing linkage through an intermediate pivot. The support structure has at least one biasing assembly. Leading, intermediate and trailing support wheel assemblies are connected to the support structure, which is adapted to move such that when the leading support wheel assembly moves in a first direction, the intermediate support wheel assembly moves in a second direction, and the trailing support wheel assembly moves in the first direction. A track system having the support structure and a vehicle having the track system is also disclosed.

A pivot assembly for connecting a ground-contacting wheel assembly to a frame member of a track system assembly has a base defining a first interlocking member, a resilient body structured for being received at least partially within the base and having a second interlocking member connectable to the first interlocking member, and an axle assembly configured for rotatably connecting the ground-contacting wheel assembly to the frame member, the axle assembly including a third interlocking member connectable to the second interlocking member. The resilient body is at least partially wrappable around the peripheral surface of the axle assembly. Upon deformation of the resilient body, the axle assembly is pivotally movable relative to the frame member of the track system assembly about at least one of a longitudinal axis and a vertical axis.

Windshield adjustment mechanism includes a support including part of a first pivotable connector and part of a second pivotable connector that are spaced apart from one another. Mechanism includes a mount that has a guideway and part of a third pivotable connector. Mechanism includes a carriage that has part of the first pivotable connector and is slidingly mounted with respect to the guideway. Mechanism includes a link that includes part of the second pivotable connector and part of the third pivotable connector that are spaced apart from one another. First pivotable connector, second pivotable connector, third pivotable connector are positioned, and support, guideway, carriage and link are positioned, oriented and dimensioned, such that sliding of carriage causes simultaneous (i) translating of support and of carriage with respect to mount via translation of first pivotable connector, (ii) pivoting of support with respect to carriage about a first pivotable connector axis.

Windshield adjustment mechanism

A windshield assembly generally configured to be used on off-road vehicles such as utility-terrain vehicles (UTVs) and side-by-side vehicles (SSVs) comprises a flexible and slidable windshield panel. The windshield assembly generally comprises at least two guide rails configured to be mounted to the vehicle and more particularly to the front and top portions of the cabin structure, and a flexible windshield panel which side edges are slidably mounted to the guide rails. By virtue of its sliding engagement with the guide rails, the windshield panel can be slid between an operative position, i.e. in front of the driver, and an inoperative position, i.e. into the top of the vehicle.
