(1) Vehicle ground clearance: Conventional vehicles are designed to have as high a ground clearance as possible when off-road driving is taken into account. While it is inevitable that the vehicle's stability, riding comfort, running performance, etc. will deteriorate, this embodiment has a central track device, so
In the stowed position, it is considered that LOOIll is sufficient for ground clearance.

In addition, if there is an obstacle when driving off-road, please refer to Figure 4 (b).
) As shown in (c), it is possible to cross by transmitting power to the central crawler track 13. Note that if the running resistance is small, it is also possible to cross the terrain using only the propulsive force of the main crawler by idling the central crawler without transmitting power to the central crawler.

In snowy areas, muddy areas, etc., the vehicle sinks and the bottom of the vehicle body touches the ground, which increases running resistance and causes the main tracks to float up, eventually making it impossible to drive and causing the vehicle to become damaged. As the vehicle subsides, contact resistance also increases on the sides of the vehicle, the S-carriage system, and the main track side, resulting in an increase in running resistance.In contrast, in the vehicle with the central track system of this example, as shown in Figure (b). , there is no contact part on the bottom of the car body.

The amount of subsidence of the vehicle is shown in Figure 6 (aJ for the conventional vehicle and h' for the vehicle with central track device from Figure 6(b)).
Vehicles with central JIyI band devices have low ground pressure, so h>
>h' Therefore, since the side of the vehicle, the suspension system, and the side of the crawler have little subsidence of the vehicle, the contact resistance is also small, and the running resistance is small compared to the conventional vehicle.

ay> Improved slip resistance In the case of general tires for automobiles, the smaller the flatness of a flat tire compared to a regular round tire, the greater the adhesion force.
In the same way that slip resistance is improved, the vehicle with the central track device of this example has an increased ground contact area outside the central track and has a weaker adhesive force, which improves the ability to climb slopes, soft ground, snowy ground, and muddy ground. Increased maneuverability, including the ability to traverse waterways, etc.

(V)高速機動性: 最高速度は、一般の履帯車両とほぼ同等の機動性を保持

(Vl) The vehicle body posture is adjusted as shown in Fig. 7 (b) by applying the super tsutsumi no crab central crawler lifting device.
As shown in the figure, the rear lifting hydraulic cylinder 17 is contracted and the front hydraulic cylinder 17 is extended to its maximum extension to bring the vehicle into an upward position, converting the normal position (a) to the open position (b). The levee capacity is from H in the same figure (a) to J in the same figure (1
)), the height of the embankment D (D > H), which cannot be crossed in the normal posture, becomes D <H' in the same figure (b).
Therefore, by applying the central 1iνshu device, the supercapacity can be increased.
