CA 2729024

A tensioning system for a tracked vehicle. The present invention provides for adjusting tension of a track by moving the sprocket relative to the rollers in a substantially vertical direction. The system comprises a sprocket assembly, a roller assembly, a track, and a tension adjustment assembly. The tension adjustment assembly includes a tension bolt threaded through a tension nut that is secured to the sprocket assembly. The bolt threads through the nut and contacts the roller assembly. As the bolt is threaded or unthreaded, the sprocket assembly is moved relative to the roller assembly in a substantially vertical direction. As the assemblies move relative to each other, tension in the track is resultantly adjusted.

L'invention concerne un système de mise sous tension d'un véhicule à chenille. L'invention fournit l'ajustement de la tension d'une chenille en déplaçant la douille par rapport au rouleau dans une direction sensiblement verticale. Le système comprend un ensemble douille, un ensemble rouleau, une chenille, et un ensemble d'ajustement de tension. L'ensemble d'ajustement de tension comprend un boulon de tension vissé à travers un écrou de tension qui est fixé sur l'ensemble douille. Le boulon est vissé à travers l'écrou et vient en contact avec l'ensemble rouleau. Lorsque le boulon est vissé ou dévissé, l'ensemble douille est déplacé par rapport à l'ensemble rouleau dans une direction sensiblement verticale. Lorsque les ensembles se déplacent les uns par rapport aux autres, la tension dans la chenille est ajustée de manière résultante.
