Abstract
A track tensioning system configured to automatically adjust and maintain tension on an endless track used in a track assembly. Tension is applied to the track by pressure applied by one of the rollers included in the track assembly. The roller is movable relative to the other components of the track assembly using a linear actuator. Power is supplied to the linear actuator via a power source. The power source is configured to regulate the amount of power supplied to the linear actuator to maintain the track assembly at a desired track tension.
