A suspension system supports a chassis relative to a crawler mechanism including a continuous track. A link is rotatable about an axis extending transversely through a first portion. The first portion includes a projections extending radially inwardly, and peripheral openings defined by spaces between the projections. An axle member secured to the crawler mechanism includes peripheral shafts extending radially outward from the axis and positioned in an associated peripheral opening. Each resilient member is positioned within an associated peripheral opening and engages an associated peripheral shaft, damping movement of the peripheral shaft relative to the link. An auxiliary roller assembly includes a yoke and a plurality of auxiliary rollers coupled to the yoke. The yoke is rotatable relative to the crawler frame about a yoke axis. The auxiliary rollers are aligned along a direction of travel of the track and are configured to engage an inner surface of the track.

A giant six-legged polar research vehicle with tracked feet, including a platform, six legs arranged at six ends of the platform and six tracked feet arranged below the six legs. A monitoring device is arranged on a top cover. Six power compartments each having a steering device are arranged at six ends of a chassis in the platform. Each leg includes a main traveling device with an upper end and a lower end respectively connected to the steering device and a tracked foot, an auxiliary traveling device with an upper end and a lower end respectively connected to the chassis and the main traveling device, and a connecting device arranged on the main traveling device. The tracked foot includes a main flipping mechanism, an auxiliary flipping mechanism, a tracked foot slewing device, a crawler, a sliding plate and a suspension.

A work machine includes an undercarriage assembly. The undercarriage assembly includes a chassis and a ground-engaging mechanism for rotating around the chassis to move the work machine. A pair of rails is coupled to the chassis. A pair of sliders is coupled to a front-assembly. The sliders are aligned with the rails and movable relative to the rails to facilitate movement of the front-end assembly relative to the chassis.

A track system for a vehicle has an attachment assembly mountable to a chassis of a vehicle and defining an attachment-assembly-pivotable connector pivot axis; a track assembly including a support frame disposed laterally outward from the attachment assembly, the support frame including a leading frame assembly and a trailing frame assembly, each frame assembly including a frame member connectable to the attachment assembly pivotable connector and a frame-suspension pivotable connector; at least one wheel-load-bearing connector, and at least one idler wheel being at least indirectly connected to the frame member via the at least one wheel-load-bearing connector. The track system further has a sprocket wheel, an endless track, and a suspension assembly having a forward suspension pivotable connector, a rearward suspension pivotable connector, and a suspension member operatively connected to the forward suspension pivotable connector and to the rearward suspension pivotable connector.

A track system for traction of a vehicle (e.g., a compact track loader or other construction vehicle) which may be designed to improve ride quality (e.g., reduce vibrations) for an operator and/or enhance other aspects of its performance or that of the vehicle. For example, a track of the track system may be frictionally driven and without transversal rigid parts (e.g., metallic cores). Also, power generation and transmission functions may be implemented by the track system. For instance, a motor and a transmission may be at least mostly contained within the track system.

A bogie axle assembly for a vehicle, in particular for an off-highway vehicle such as a forestry machine, the bogie axle assembly comprising: a rigid link arm; a first joint disposed on the link arm for pivotally coupling the link arm to a vehicle frame; a second joint disposed on the link arm, at a distance from the first joint; a bogie pivotally coupled to the link arm via the second joint; and a ground engaging structure comprising one or more wheels rotatably mounted on the bogie. The present disclosure further relates to a vehicle comprising said bogie axle assembly.
