本考案の実施例を図面に基づいて説明する。 図中１は上記した建設機械、例えばブルドーザの履帯走行装置に用いられる乾 地用の履板であり、この履板１はそれぞれリンク２にて無端状に連結されて履帯 を構成するようになっている。そして上記履板１の踏面の幅方向の一側部に滑り 止めの突条３が長手方向全長にわたって設けられている。 An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a track plate for dry land used in the above-mentioned construction machine, for example, a track running device of a bulldozer. The track plates 1 are endlessly connected by links 2 to form a track. ing. A non-slip ridge 3 is provided on one side of the tread surface of the crawler plate 1 in the width direction over the entire length in the longitudinal direction.
【０００８】 ４は上記履帯を構成する各履板１の踏面側に着脱可能に固着される履帯用パッ ドであり、この履帯用パッド４は踏面を構成する弾性部材５と、この弾性部材５ を補強する芯金６と、この芯金６の一端部に一体状に設けられた固着鉤部材７と 、他端部に着脱可能に固着される着脱鉤部材８とからなっている。この着脱鉤部 材８の取付けは芯金６に固着したナット部材９に螺合するボルト１０にて固着す る。なお上記ナット部材９をボルト部材にしてこれを着脱鉤部材８に貫通させ、 これにナット部材を螺合することにより着脱鉤部材８を固着するようにしてもよ い。またこの着脱鉤部材８の取付け部８ａは履板１の端部に係合する鉤部８ｂよ り内側へ折れ曲がっており、ボルト１０の頭部が鉤部８ｂより突出しないように なっている。Reference numeral 4 denotes a crawler belt pad that is detachably fixed to the tread surface side of each crawler plate 1 that constitutes the crawler belt. The crawler belt pad 4 includes an elastic member 5 that constitutes the tread surface, and this elastic member 5. The core metal 6 for reinforcing the core metal 6, a fixing hook member 7 integrally provided at one end of the core metal 6, and a detachable hook member 8 detachably fixed to the other end. The attachment / detachment hook member 8 is fixed by a bolt 10 screwed to a nut member 9 fixed to the core metal 6. Alternatively, the nut member 9 may be used as a bolt member to penetrate the detachable hook member 8 and the nut member may be screwed into the detachable hook member 8 to fix the detachable hook member 8. The attaching portion 8a of the detachable hook member 8 is bent inward from the hook portion 8b that engages with the end of the shoe plate 1, so that the head of the bolt 10 does not protrude from the hook portion 8b.
【０００９】 上記芯金６は板状になっていて、その幅方向略中央部に補強用のリブ１１が略 全長にわたって設けられている。なおこのリブ１１は履板１とリンク２とを結合 するリンク取付けボルト１２の頭部をかわす位置に設けられている。そしてこの リブ１１が履板１の踏面に当接して当接脚部の役目をなしている。The cored bar 6 has a plate-like shape, and a reinforcing rib 11 is provided at substantially the center in the width direction over substantially the entire length. The ribs 11 are provided at positions where the heads of the link mounting bolts 12 for connecting the track plate 1 and the links 2 are avoided. The ribs 11 are in contact with the tread surface of the shoe plate 1 and serve as contact legs.
【００１０】 上記のように構成された履帯用パッド４と履板１との結合は、主として、履帯 用パッド４の長手方向両側部の固着鉤部材７と着脱鉤部材８にて行なわれるが、 これだけでは結合強度的に不十分なので、芯金６を履板１側に係合する手段がと られる。 すなわち図１から図３に示すように、履板１の突条３の長手方向中間部に切欠 き１３を設け、一方芯金６にはこの突条３の切欠き１３に係合する鉤部片１４を 設け、この両者が履帯用パッド４の取付け状態で係合するようになっている。The coupling of the crawler belt pad 4 and the crawler plate 1 configured as described above is mainly performed by the fixed hook members 7 and the detachable hook members 8 on both sides in the longitudinal direction of the crawler belt pad 4, Since this alone is insufficient in terms of bonding strength, means for engaging the cored bar 6 with the track plate 1 side is taken. That is, as shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, a notch 13 is provided at an intermediate portion in the longitudinal direction of the ridge 3 of the shoe plate 1, and a hook portion that engages with the notch 13 of the ridge 3 is provided on the core metal 6. A piece 14 is provided, and both are engaged with each other when the crawler belt pad 4 is attached.
【００１１】 図４、図５は上記芯材６と履板１との係合手段の他側を示すもので、履板１の 突条３にボルト穴１５を設け、一方芯金６にこの突条３のボルト穴１５に対応す る位置にナット部材６ａを固着し、履帯用パッド４の取付け状態でボルト穴１５ にボルト１６を貫通させてナット部材６ａに螺合するようになっている。FIGS. 4 and 5 show the other side of the engaging means between the core material 6 and the shoe plate 1, where the projecting ridges 3 of the shoe plate 1 are provided with bolt holes 15 and the core metal 6 is provided with the bolt holes 15. A nut member 6a is fixed at a position corresponding to the bolt hole 15 of the ridge 3, and when the track pad 4 is attached, a bolt 16 is passed through the bolt hole 15 and screwed into the nut member 6a. .
【００１２】 図６、図７（ａ）、（ｂ）はさらに他例を示すもので、履板１の長手方向両端 部に固着鉤部材７及び着脱鉤部材８の取付け部８ａが係合する切欠き１７，１７ を設ける。このとき、履板１の長手方向両側端部の裏面にも図７（ａ）、（ｂ） に示すように各鉤部材７，８の下側鉤片８ｂが係合する凹部１８，１８を設けて もよい。 この実施例によれば、履板用パッド４の構成はこれの芯金６の全長を上記両切 欠き１７，１７の切欠き深さ分だけ短くする。なおこの実施例では、各鉤部材７ ，８の係合部が履板１の切欠き１７，１７に係合するため、鉤部材７，８の外端 面が履板１の外側面と一致することになり、その突出量をゼロにすることができ る。またこの実施例はパワーショベル用の履板等のように、突条３が特にないよ うな履板の場合に用いられる。FIGS. 6, 7 (a) and 7 (b) show another example, in which the fixing hook members 7 and the attachment portions 8 a of the detachable hook members 8 are engaged with both longitudinal ends of the shoe plate 1. Notches 17 and 17 are provided. At this time, recesses 18 and 18 with which the lower hook pieces 8b of the hook members 7 and 8 are engaged are also formed on the back surfaces of the longitudinal end portions of the track plate 1 as shown in FIGS. 7 (a) and 7 (b). May be provided. According to this embodiment, the structure of the track pad 4 is such that the total length of the core bar 6 thereof is shortened by the depth of the notches 17 and 17. In this embodiment, since the engaging portions of the hook members 7 and 8 engage with the notches 17 and 17 of the shoe plate 1, the outer end surfaces of the hook members 7 and 8 are aligned with the outer surface of the shoe plate 1. Therefore, the amount of protrusion can be reduced to zero. Further, this embodiment is used in the case of a shoe plate such as a shoe plate for a power shovel which does not have the protrusion 3 in particular.
【００１３】 図８はさらに他の実施例を示すもので、履板１の踏面部に複数個のボルト貫通 穴１９を設け、これを貫通するボルト２０にて履帯用パッド４を履板１に結合す る。FIG. 8 shows still another embodiment. A plurality of bolt through holes 19 are provided in the tread surface of the track plate 1, and the track pads 4 are attached to the track plate 1 by bolts 20 penetrating the bolt through holes 19. Join.
