Patent
CA 2655592
An endless belt system for a vehicle having a negative trail steering geometry is provided. The endless belt system replaces the wheels that steer a vehicle, particularly an all-terrain vehicle, to provide increased floatation over soft terrain. Also provided is a lower portion of an endless belt supported by a rail providing pivotal support to the contact area to increase response of the, endless belt system to uneven terrain. Also provided is a stopper to limit the steering angle of the endless belt system that is disposed on the vehicle such that a steering linkage of the vehicle does not bear a force created when the stopper is engaged.
Courroie sans fin à géométrie de train à chasse négative pour véhicule. La courroie sans fin remplace les roues de direction d'un véhicule, notamment d'un véhicule tout-terrain, afin d'accroître la flottation en terrain meuble. La courroie comprend aussi une partie inférieure de courroie sans fin supportée par un rail offrant un support pivotant à la zone de contact pour améliorer la réaction de la courroie sans fin au terrain accidenté. La courroie comprend par ailleurs un butoir qui limite l'angle de braquage de la courroie sans fin installée dans le véhicule de façon à ce que la timonerie de direction du véhicule n'ait pas à supporter la force engendrée par l'intervention du butoir.
