When the track is tightened, hydraulic oil is injected into the oil chamber through the hydraulic joint 5. The oil cylinder piston rod 7 extends under the action of the hydraulic pressure, and the oil cylinder piston rod 7 pushes the track to tighten it. At the same time, the isolation piston 3 compresses the gas in the air chamber under the reaction force of the hydraulic oil, so that it maintains a certain pressure potential energy and plays an energy storage role. When the crawler walking system of the engineering equipment is working and suddenly encounters abnormal resistance, its energy storage can keep the crawler walking system running smoothly.
