BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a rubber track of a tracked vehicle, and more particularly to a rubber track of a construction machine such as a bulldozer or a hydraulic excavator.

理由によるものである。
(Prior Art) Conventionally, as shown in FIG. 5, in a tracked vehicle such as a bulldozer in which an endless track 21 made of rubber is used instead of an iron track for protection of road surface and noise and vibration, an idle wheel is used. A plurality of upper rolling wheels 25 and lower rolling wheels 26 are provided on a track frame 24 provided between the 23 and the starting wheel 22, and the crawler belt 21 is wound around each of these wheels and transmitted to the starting wheel 22. The vehicle is driven by the generated power. In order to prevent noise and vibration, the crawler track used in this way has recently been replaced by a conventional iron crawler track so that a rubber-integrated crawler track can be replaced and mounted. The rubber crawler belt and the starting wheel mesh with the crawler belt by skipping one tooth with respect to the odd number tooth of the starting wheel. This is because the teeth of the starting wheel are meshed with the next tooth which is shifted by one pitch after one rotation by making the teeth of the starting wheel an odd number, and the wear of the teeth of the starting wheel is reduced as much as possible.

(Problems to be solved by the invention) However, in the case of the above-mentioned conventional rubber crawler belt, the crawler belt pitch becomes large, and an angle is formed between the adjacent crawler belts, and the bending angle becomes large when wound around the starter wheel or the idler wheel. Therefore, the strain rate of the rubber on the lug side becomes large and cracks easily occur, and there is a problem in the durability of the rubber. Since the distance between the adjacent cored bars 27 embedded in the rubber 29 is widened at regular intervals in the direction perpendicular to the moving direction of the rubber crawler belt, the lower rolling wheel travels on the rolling surface 15 of the cored bar. At this time, there is a drawback that the vibration falls around the space between the adjacent cored bars and the vibration around the undercarriage increases to generate noise.

In order to solve these drawbacks, not all the teeth of the starting wheel are skipped, but all the teeth are meshed with the core metal meshing engagement portion, thereby doubling the number of core metal and reducing the bending angle of the rubber track. (Hereinafter referred to as short pitch type rubber crawler).

このゴム履帯は従来のゴム履帯にくらべ芯金の数が増
えるので、ゴム履帯の長さが変わらない限り芯金の履帯
前後方向の幅が狭くなる。
Since this rubber crawler has more cores than the conventional rubber crawler, the width of the cored bar in the front-back direction of the crawler becomes narrow unless the length of the rubber crawler changes.

Therefore, assuming that the load of the vehicle body received by the crawler belt per core metal is the same, for example, when the vehicle body rides on a stone or the like, the vehicle body load is received by the crawler belt. The strength decreases and it becomes easy to bend. As a result, the rubber crawler belt is deformed in the cross-sectional direction and the rubber is peeled off from the core metal, which shortens the life of the lug.

また従来のショートピッチ型ゴム履帯は、ラグが1個
の芯金投影面上に形成され、ゴム履帯の移動方向と直角
方向に設けられており、ラグの接地は連続していない。
Further, in the conventional short pitch type rubber crawler belt, the lug is formed on one core bar projection surface and is provided in the direction perpendicular to the moving direction of the rubber crawler belt, and the lug is not continuously grounded.

従って、ラグの頂部面積を大きくしようとしても、限

Therefore, even if an attempt is made to increase the top area of the lug, there is a limit because there is little freedom in selecting the lug shape within the limited area of the cored bar.

また、ラグとラグとの間の凹み部における土の剪断面
積が小さくなって剪断力が低下する。更にラグに土が付
着し易く土離れが不良となり良好な排出作用は期待でき
ない。
Further, the shearing cross-sectional area of the soil in the recessed portion between the lugs is reduced, and the shearing force is reduced. Furthermore, soil is likely to adhere to the rug and the soil is not easily detached, so a good discharging action cannot be expected.

そこで、必要な土の剪断面積を確保するために隣接す

Therefore, if the space between adjacent lugs is expanded to secure the necessary shearing area of soil, the top area of the lugs must be reduced, resulting in increased surface pressure of the lugs and abrasion, which reduces the rigidity of the rugs. Leads to.

ラグの剛性が低下すると、走行時に下転輪が移動する
際、ラグが撓み易くなり下転輪の落ち込みで車両の上下
振動が発生し易くなる。
When the rigidity of the lug decreases, the lug is likely to bend when the lower wheel moves during traveling, and the vertical vibration of the vehicle easily occurs due to the lower wheel falling.

Further, if the rigidity of the rubber crawler belt is reduced, the rubber crawler belt receives a lateral force during turning, which causes a disengagement between the rubber crawler belt and the starting wheel, resulting in the crawler belt disengagement.

In addition, the valley between adjacent lugs is configured to widen toward the end of the crawler belt from the center to prevent separation of the core metal and rubber, ensuring lug life and facilitating soil discharge, It is possible to prevent a decrease in traction force. Further, since the rigidity of the rubber crawler belt can be secured, it is an object of the present invention to provide a short-pitch type rubber crawler track that can suppress vertical vibration of the vehicle to a minimum and prevent the rubber crawler belt from coming off. To do.

(Effects of the Invention) As described above, the rubber crawler belt according to the present invention has the following effects.

(1)ラグの形状を帯状方向の全長に渡って連続にする
とともに、分岐部分は3個以上の芯金投影面に跨がるよ
うに形成したので、ラグの接地面積を大きく取ることが
でき、この結果、接地荷重は分散されてラグ頂部の面圧
が低下し、ラグの摩耗寿命が長くなる。
(1) Since the shape of the lug is continuous over the entire length in the belt-like direction, and the branch portion is formed so as to extend over three or more core metal projection surfaces, it is possible to take a large contact area of the lug. As a result, the ground contact load is dispersed, the surface pressure at the top of the lug is reduced, and the wear life of the lug is extended.

(2)ラグの千鳥型配置は、隣り合うラグ間の凹部の面
積を広く取れるので、この結果、土の保持量が多くな
り、土の剪断力は増加して、車両の牽引力が増加する。
(2) In the staggered arrangement of lugs, the area of the recess between the adjacent lugs can be made large, and as a result, the amount of soil retained increases, the shearing force of the soil increases, and the traction force of the vehicle increases.

(3)また、ラグ間の凹部には急斜面から緩斜面に続く
底部を設け、3次元方向の土の剪断力が得られる構成に
したので、牽引力は一層増加させることが可能になる。
(3) Further, since the recesses between the lugs are provided with a bottom portion continuing from the steep slope to the gentle slope, the shear force of the soil in the three-dimensional direction is obtained, so that the traction force can be further increased.

(4)ラグの形状は、前記の如く帯状方向の全長に渡っ
て連続しているので、ゴム履帯の剛性が高く、車体振動
が減ることにより、ラグの凹部に捕えられた土砂は振動
で破壊することがなく、車両の牽引力を増加させること
が可能になる。
(4) Since the shape of the lug is continuous over the entire length in the belt-like direction as described above, the rigidity of the rubber crawler belt is high and the vibration of the vehicle body is reduced. It is possible to increase the traction force of the vehicle without doing so.

(5)また、ラグの凹部の形状は、履帯の端に行く程、
拡大する(末広がり)形状としたので土の排出が容易と
なり、従来のゴム履帯のようにラグ間の土詰まりによる
履帯滑りがなく、牽引力の増加とともにラグの摩耗を減
少させる。
(5) Also, the shape of the recess of the lug is such that as it goes to the end of the track,
Since the shape is enlarged (spreading out), soil can be easily discharged, and there is no slippage of the crawler due to clogging between the lugs unlike conventional rubber crawler tracks, and traction wear is reduced as traction increases.
