A track assembly for assisting in moving a farm implement along a ground surface in a line of travel is provided. The track assembly includes a tilt arm comprising front and rear ends. The track assembly includes a camber arm coupled to the tilt arm such that the camber arm permits the tilt arm to pivot about a first axis perpendicular to the line of travel and a second axis parallel to the line of travel. The camber arm is located between the front and rear ends of the tilt arm.

A mobile farm implement includes a track assembly with a plurality of arms that are pivotally coupled to support idler wheels and bogie wheels such that the track assembly is able to better conform to the terrain when the implement is towed behind a tractor or otherwise moved.

The invention relates to a forest machine, comprising a chassis having sides, a swing bogie mounted on bearings to the chassis, comprising a swing frame, second sides and at least two wheels, a swing bearing attaching the chassis to mount the swing bogie, a power transmission arranged through the swing bearing in connection with the chassis, a support formed by two pairs between the chassis and the swing frame, each pair having a protrusion as a support surface and a rail as a counter surface to transmit lateral forces between the chassis and the swing frame during contact between the two surfaces, wherein each pair is located at a distance from the swing bearing on separate side of the swing bearing, and in each pair, one of the protrusions and the rail is attached to the side of the chassis and other to the second side of the swing frame.

A track system for use with a towed vehicle has an attachment assembly and a multi-member frame assembly. The multi-member frame assembly includes a primary frame member connected to the attachment assembly, at least one wheel-bearing frame member pivotably connected to the primary frame member about a pivot located within a recess, and at least one resilient bushing assembly located within the recess and engaging the pivot. The at least one bushing assembly is resiliently deformable in a circumferential direction to permit pivoting of the pivot with respect to the recess, and is fixedly connected within the recess to resiliently bias the pivot towards a rest position with respect to the recess. The track system further includes leading and trailing idler wheel assemblies rotatably connected to the at least one wheel-bearing frame member, and an endless track.

Specially fabricated wear plugs are designed for selective insertion within machined holes in a track slide, which decrease friction material below the surface of the track slide. The wear plugs decrease friction between adjoining parts of the track slide assembly and reduce wear caused through use of the track slide in various applications. Methods of fabricating the wear plugs are also provided.

Disclosed are a special robot with complex terrain adaptive function and a motion and operation method thereof. The special robot comprises a crawler chassis, a shock absorption suspension assembly, a suspension adaptive adjustment assembly and an electronic control assembly. The present disclosure achieves an adaptive angle adjustment on the left and right sides of the shock absorption suspension assembly, including the independent pitch angle and roller angle adjustment on the left and right sides of the shock absorption suspension assembly by the configuration of structures such as the suspension adaptive adjustment assembly and then achieves the adaptability of the robot on complex and tough pavement conditions by the combination with a sensor for pavement perception, which ensures walking performance and attachment ability of mechanisms, further improves the load-bearing performance of the crawler robot, ensures the safety, stability and adaptability of the mobile platform.
