A tooth cap for construction machinery having a chisel-shaped body formed with a socket and a wedge-shaped portion extending from the socket and having a pair of mutually converging working flanks, at least one of the working flanks being formed with a plurality of ribs.

Tooth cap for construction machinery

A hinge assembly for a vehicle track, conveyor chain or the like has at least one bearing lacquer coated onto at least one of the mutually contacting surfaces of the pin or bushing and having a binder or carrier of the polyamide/polyimide type or of a molecular structure with alternating amide and imide monomers. A filler of molybdenum disulfide, molybdenum oxides and/or hydroxides and graphite is provided in the carrier or binder. Other lubrication is not required and the bearing lacquer has a long life.

Hinge assembly for vehicle tracks and the like

A chain master link has first and second link parts having outer ends centered on respective substantially parallel first and second axes and coupled-together inner ends. Each inner end is formed with at least one tooth extending transversely across a plane including the two axes and having an inner face turned toward the respective axis and forming with the plane an angle of at least 90&deg; open away from the respective axis. The teeth are engaged together with the inner faces bearing on each other so that tension pulling the parts apart along the plane pulls the teeth into engagement with each other. Each part is formed with a pocket receiving the tooth of the other part and having an outer face forming with the plane an angle open away from the respective axis and greater than the respective inner-face angle. Thus the two parts can be fitted together simply by pivoting their inner ends toward each other about the respective outer-end axes.

Two-piece master chain link

A rotatable drive/support element having a support surface is used with a chain link having a hardened running surface extending in and adapted to ride in a travel direction on the support surface and a side surface also extending in the travel direction and normally out of contact with the element. The running surface has a predetermined width b and is formed of at least one edge region of an outwardly convex arcuate shape seen in the travel direction having a radius R of curvature and a respective corner region extending from the edge region to the side region and of an outwardly convex arcuate shape seen in the travel direction having a radius r of curvature. Herein r/b&cong;0.05 to 0.11, and preferably R/b&cong;2.4 to 3.1.

Track link for tracked crawlers

A drive chain has a plurality of pairs of link elements with the elements each pair extending longitudinally parallel to each other and having relatively widely spaced outer ends formed with transversely open and confronting blind bores and relatively closely spaced inner ends formed with axially throughgoing and transversely aligned bores. Each pair of inner ends lies between a respective pair of outer ends with the bores coaxial and receiving respective pins defining respective transverse axes, each fitting tightly in the bores of the inner ends, and having ends rotatably seated in the respective bores of the respective outer ends. Respective sleeves surround the pins between the respective inner ends. Respective outer seal rings between the outer ends and the pin ends define with the pin ends outer compartments and respective inner seal rings between the inner ends and the sleeve define between the respective pin, sleeve, and inner ends an inner compartment. Respective bodies of lubricant at least partially fill the compartments.

Drive chain for tracked vehicle

A tracked-vehicle drive has a wheel rotatably driven about an axis and having an outer surface, an endless traction element spanned over and frictionally engaging the wheel so as to be advanced thereby when the wheel rotates and having an inner face formed with an endless row of spaced teeth, and an auxiliary drive member displaceable adjacent the traction element and formed with an endless row of spaced entrainment formations in constant mesh with the teeth so that the drive member is displaced synchronously with the traction element. A coupling body having entrainment formations in constant mesh with the drive-member entrainment formations is engageable with the wheel outer surface. The body can be coupled to the wheel for positive driving of the traction element from the wheel via the member and body and can be decoupled from the wheel for frictional coupling of the traction element by the wheel.

Tracked-vehicle drive

A track system for a track vehicle which has a crawler chain and a driving sprocket wheel. The chain has links each of which has a pin assembly with a bushing or one piece bolt the outer periphery of which at least is composed of a material consisting of Si.sub.3 N.sub.4 silicon nitride or a zirconium oxide with at most 15% of sintering additives. The driving sprocket wheel can have segments formed with the teeth and bolted to a disk, the segments being composed of a material consisting of Si.sub.3 N.sub.4 silicon nitride or zirconium oxide with less than 15% of sintering additives.

Crawler chain for tracked vehicles

In order to create a track roller for crawler chains, consisting of a track oller body, an axle traversing the same as well as bearings and seals arranged between the track roller body and the axle, whereby the axle is affixed to a mount with its ends axially protruding from the track roller body, which has a long life when used as intended, the invention proposes that the bearings (3) radially arranged between the track roller body (1) and the axle (2) be designed as pivoting bearings, so that the load-caused bending of the track roller body or the axle can follow without jamming.

Track roller for crawler chain

A drive system, especially a belt drive for a multi-axial vehicle running gear, has a drive drum about which the belt is looped and provided with a ring with entrainers which engage teeth on the belt when there is slip between the belt and the drum. Limited rotation of the ring relative to the drum may be effected by elliptical spring elements coupling the ring and the drum or by clutches on the drum which frequently lock the ring to the drum so as to effect control engagement of the entrainers with the belt teeth and positive drive of the belt by the drum.
