¹¹ Iiaupenkette link for tanks and other uaupen ^{vehicles 6t}

The firing iDeaielit focuses on main kitchens for vehicles that should drive on changing terrain, such as tanks. she suggests that the links of such liaupe chains be designed in such a way that that dis with these equipped caterpillars on both driving normal outdoor roads as well as uneven terrain.

The tracks of tanks or similar vehicles confess generally of articulated metal members, "when the tracked vehicle is traveling on a road, so These G-members furrow the road surface and destroy it. Furthermore, the ufrliclie articulated 7 "bond is one of the main chain links with each other for low driving speeds, as they come into question on uneven terrain, zv / corner-wise, however

less for higher speeds, such as "when driving." are possible on otraisen.

It is the control system that sicli resulting parts of it to avoid.

The subject of the fire is a metallic main chain link, which is particularly characterized by the fact that a rubber sole is detachably attached to its lower surface and, furthermore, in each cantilever of the chain link, which serves to articulate it with neighboring chain links, an outer rubber-coated sole , is arranged under / energy expenditure in this projection pressed-in socket, in which the joint is locked or blocked against rotation.

As a result of this formation of the Ilaupenkettenlink exists no longer the danger that the caterpillar chain, its links in front The transition to the street is equipped with a synthetic shoe sole that could damage the 3strasse pavement, furthermore is the new type of articulated connection of the caterpillar chain links together much better suited for driving on the iütraße and also has the special adhesive properties on the floor, which the feet and he by the fact that they iiit the rubber soles

The details and other features as well as gate parts of the fires result from the following destruction of a exemplary embodiment of the new jia / upenketten link based on the illustrations.

ji'ig. 1 illustrates in perspective view of Seen below, this embodiment of a caterpillar chain link according to the fire.

5 ¹ Xg. 2 is a perspective top view of the chain link according to FIG. 1 in the separated state of the parts.

Pig. 3 also shows a perspective illustration from several G'-songs according to Dig. I and 2 existing Part of the caterpillar chain.

• According to the embodiment shown, there is the new one A chain link made of a metal body 1 of essentially cuboid shape. On two opposite one another Sides of this body are cylindrical projections 2, namely arei such projections on one and two on the other Side of the body 1 formed, with the projections on the

one and the other side are offset from one another in such a way that the two projections of one imupenkettenlink into the Gaps between the three projections of the 'bsnachToarten Insert the main chain link and as if made of Ag. 3 can be seen, together with these form an I-series of projections.

On the other two sides of the body 1 openings 3 are formed which mesh with the teeth of the sprocket of the road vehicle and transmit the drive for the Ilaupen chains. The openings 3 frame watch teeth 4 which protrude from the upper surface of the body.

Deüiäß the fire is on the lower surface of the body 1 removable a Terschieißsohle 5 made of rubber or another jJlastomer attached. jJ this sole, on one of its edges is provided with beveled edges 6, v / eis a portion which is that of the groove of the lower surface of the body 1 hugs, with soft the sole over a to your upper surface attached iuetallplatte 7 is in contact. 3Jie sole 5 a, n is attached to the body 1 by bolts 8, which are inserted into the ■ body 1 penetrating holes opening into its surface 9 are introduced, and are screwed into cutters 10 sunk in the sole body. The pants of the middle and with it the bolt 6 is prevented by jj'eder rings 11.

Each projection 2 also takes a 3uch.se 13 on the outside with a coating of rubber or a provided with another elastomer and with energy expenditure in the cylindrical bore of the projection is pressed in. lOiese socket 13 has a hexagonal bore 14, which has a “parts 15 of takes the same hexagonal profile, the two "adjacent to each other." üaupenkettenglieder articulated in that it penetrates the Xieihe from the five adjacent projections. The sockets 13 of the outermost carrion of the Heine from three projections of the body 1 are shorter than the holes of these outermost projections. This makes it possible to take linear energy expenditure from the end face of each of these projections to press in a metal body Ib, from which penetration prevented from dirt.

Ii ¹ Ig. 3 illustrates the articulated link connection of a certain number of track chain links, which form part of the track of a tank or similar vehicle, by means of the projections 2 and the ropes 15.

As follows from the preceding explanations, both the contage as the dismantling of the carbon body 5 simp.cn and to be carried out quickly, it is sufficient for this purpose to screw it in or unscrewing the bolts 8. L; s is therefore

simply, depending on the nature of the terrain on which the tank or the like. to operate the liearpenkettenglieder be equipped with either the sole bodies 5 or in directly en contact with the ground to "leave ·! The Absohrägungen ö reduce oils Scheuerb esjispruchungen the rubber BZV /. his Hetallabdeckung 7 posing as] olge? shocks as soon as the caterpillar chain link comes into contact with the ground, and also when the caterpillar chain starts up "when negotiating curves.

Since the articulated connection of various Eaupenkettenglieder with each other takes place exclusively through sockets 12, which work according to the irrational principle of the "silent" bloc ", results in an articulated connection with the least possible play and therefore the lowest possible noise, especially when driving faster on the road. In the case of cornering by braking a caterpillar chain, the rubber soles improve the adhesion of this caterpillar chain to the ground. In the case of using the articulated connection according to the chain, on the other hand, the articulated axes hit the bores of the projections abruptly, which would be characterized ovalized quickly. this will be the! ■ inflation glued according to the very small play of the hinge joint and switch on the socket 13

and Ii.aiitschukbuch.se pressed into the bore of the projection avoided.

The innovation does not, of course, protrude on ciie illustrated in detail at the level of the table and in the figures "Example embodiment limited. Ij s are Rather, changes to this embodiment in in many ways conceivable without abandoning the basic idea of firing.
