Abstract

PURPOSE:To decrease noise generated under running from a carrier roller in the form of rotary cylinder which supports the upper side of caterpillar by forming the roller from extra-high density molecular plastics, and thereby eliminating the bearing of the roller inner surface. CONSTITUTION:One end of a shaft (made of steel) 3 is secured to a support 2 fitted at the top of a truck frame 1, while a cylindrical roller 5a made of extra-high density molecular plastic (for ex., aromatic polyester series) is inserted to the other of the shaft 3. This constitution eliminates touching of two metal members, i.e. the roller and shaft 3, which might cause galling while necessary strength is held, so that bearing at the roller inner surface is eliminated, and contacting of metals each other, i.e. roller periphery with the caterpillar link 11, can be avoided.

(Problem H to be solved by the invention) In this style, in order to prevent galling due to contact between the steel of the roller and the shaft, it is necessary to install a bushing made of non-ferrous metal or synthetic resin, and it is also necessary to fill the inside with a lubricant. This makes the structure complicated. In addition, since the rollers and the track links are in contact with metal, there is also the drawback that the noise during running is high.

FIG. 1 shows the first embodiment, in which a steel shaft 3 is fixed to a support 2 attached to the upper surface of a trunk frame 1 of a tracked vehicle, and this shaft is made of aromatic polyester or the like. A cylindrical roller 5a made of ultra-high-density molecular plastic is fitted with an appropriate clearance. A dust seal 8 and a bracket 9 are attached to the support side end of the roller 5a, and a thrust receiver plate 6 and cover 7 are attached to the other end to prevent dust from entering from the outside and to prevent dust from entering through the removable plug 10. This prevents the lubricant filled inside the roller from leaking out.

In FIG. 2, a cylindrical roller 5b made of ultra-high density molecular plastic such as aromatic polyester is connected to the shaft 3.
The collar 13, which is fixed to the shaft 3b by baking or adhesive, and also serves as a thrust receiver, is passed through the shaft 3b, and then fitted into the hole of the bushing 14 fixed to the support 2b with an appropriate clearance.
The structure is as follows. At this time, since a clearance is also provided in the axial direction, the shaft 3b to which the roller 5b is fixed can rotate at the fitting portion of the bushing 14. Further, dust seals 16 are fitted to both ends of the bushing 14, and lubricant is filled through nipples 17.
The structure is such that the frictional force between the shaft 3b and the bushing 14 is reduced.

(Effects of the Invention) As explained above, according to the present invention, by forming the roller with ultra-high density molecular plastic such as aromatic polyester, the steel-to-steel bond with the shaft can be maintained while maintaining the required strength. Since contact is avoided, the first embodiment eliminates the need for a bushing inside the roller, simplifying the structure. In addition, in the second embodiment, since the roller is inserted into the shaft, there is no need for a lubrication mechanism for the contact portion between the roller and the shaft as in the conventional structure, and instead a dust seal and lubrication mechanism are provided in the bushing provided on the shaft support of the support. The agent supply mechanism also has a simple structure because this part is away from the contact area between the roller and the roller where mud directly adheres. Since metal-to-metal contact with the plate link is avoided, noise generated from the contact portion is also reduced.
