Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of track plates, and more particularly to modular rubber track plates. Background Technology
[0002] Track pads, as key components of the running gear of tracked vehicles or equipment, are made of materials such as metal or rubber. They play an important role in supporting the weight of the vehicle, transmitting power, and providing traction and friction, helping the vehicle to travel on complex terrain. Modular rubber track pads are highly favored because they can be flexibly combined into suitable specifications and shapes according to different needs and terrains. The good elasticity of rubber can reduce shock and noise, improve ride comfort, and protect vehicle components. At the same time, they cause less damage to the road surface, making them suitable for places with high requirements for road surface protection. In addition, their light weight helps improve vehicle mobility and fuel economy. Furthermore, the modular design facilitates installation and maintenance, and replacing damaged modules individually can reduce costs and time.
[0003] When modular rubber track pads are in operation, they first connect to form a continuous track structure, transmitting the driving force generated by the rotation of the vehicle's drive wheels to the ground. The vehicle moves forward by relying on friction with the ground, while evenly distributing the vehicle's weight, increasing the contact area, and reducing pressure. This is beneficial for driving on complex terrain. During driving, when encountering uneven ground or obstacles, the highly elastic rubber material deforms elastically to absorb and buffer the impact, reducing vibration and bumps. It can also conform to the ground to enhance adhesion and ensure traction. In addition, the modular design provides flexibility, allowing for adjustments as needed, easy replacement of damaged modules, and reduced maintenance costs and time. The track length, width, and shape can also be flexibly changed according to load, terrain, etc., optimizing vehicle performance and adaptability.
[0004] Modular rubber track pads are widely used in engineering operations and other scenarios. However, a thorny problem has remained unresolved during actual use: the track pads often sway from side to side when the equipment is running. This continuous swaying causes the connections between the various components to gradually loosen, making the originally compact and stable structure loose. This not only leads to accelerated wear on critical parts of the equipment, shortening its overall lifespan, but also seriously interferes with the stability of the equipment's operation. Consequently, the modular rubber track pads cannot fully realize their intended high-efficiency performance, significantly impacting work efficiency and project progress. Utility Model Content
[0005] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides a modular rubber track plate, which aims to improve the problem of the track plate swaying left and right during equipment use, causing the equipment to become loose.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a modular rubber track plate, including a connecting belt, a plurality of fixing posts fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting belt, a connector fixedly connected to the bottom end of each fixing post, a track plate slidably connected to the bottom of the connecting belt, connecting components provided on both sides of the track plate, a plurality of threaded holes opened on both sides of the track plate, a plurality of connecting holes opened on the top of the track plate, and a plurality of fixing components provided inside the track plate;
[0007] Each of the fixing components includes a fixing ring and a spring. The outer wall of each fixing ring is slidably connected to the inside of the track plate. Each spring is disposed inside the track plate. One end of each spring is fixedly connected to the inside of the track plate, and the other end of each spring is fixedly connected to one side of the fixing ring.
[0008] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0009] Each of the connecting components includes a connecting plate and a fixing strip. One side of each connecting plate is slidably connected to one side of the track plate, and one side of each fixing strip is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting plate.
[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0011] A rubber plate is fixedly connected to the bottom of the track plate, and multiple anti-slip strips are fixedly connected to the bottom of the rubber plate.
[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0013] The anti-slip strips are arranged in a parallel array on the bottom of the rubber plate, and multiple friction strips are fixedly connected to the bottom of the anti-slip strips.
[0014] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0015] The friction strips are arranged in a parallel array at the bottom of the anti-slip strip, and multiple friction strips are fixedly connected to the bottom of the rubber plate.
[0016] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0017] The friction strips are arranged in a parallel array between the anti-slip strips, and each anti-slip strip has an anti-slip groove.
[0018] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0019] Each of the anti-slip grooves is arranged in a parallel array at the bottom of the rubber plate, and the outer wall of each friction strip is slidably connected to the inside of the anti-slip groove.
[0020] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0021] 1. In this utility model, the connecting hole at the top of the track plate is first aligned with the position of the connecting head. Then, the track plate and the connecting belt are brought close together so that the connecting head enters the connecting hole. During this period, the outer wall of the connecting head presses the fixing ring to retract into the track plate. When the connecting head enters the deepest part of the connecting hole, the fixing ring pops out under the action of the spring. This achieves the effect of preventing the track plate from swaying left and right on the connecting belt during equipment use, avoiding the problem of the equipment becoming loose due to the track plate swaying left and right during equipment use, thereby improving the efficiency of the modular rubber track plate.
[0022] 2. In this utility model, when the anti-slip strip at the bottom of the rubber plate contacts the ground, the friction strip one on its surface increases the contact area between the anti-slip strip and the ground, while the friction strip two inside the anti-slip groove increases the contact area between the surface of the rubber plate and the ground, thereby increasing the friction of the rubber plate surface. This achieves the effect of improving the anti-slip performance of the equipment by increasing the contact area between the anti-slip strip and the rubber plate and the ground during equipment use, avoiding the problem of slipping easily during equipment use due to an overly smooth surface, thus improving the practicality of the modular rubber track plate.

[0029] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0030] Reference Figures 1-3 The present invention provides an embodiment of a modular rubber track plate, comprising a connecting belt 1, a plurality of fixing posts 2 fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting belt 1 for connecting to a connector 3, a connector 3 fixedly connected to the bottom end of each fixing post 2 for locking the position of the connecting belt 1 and the track plate 4, a track plate 4 slidably connected to the bottom of the connecting belt 1 for connecting a rubber plate 11, connecting components provided on both sides of the track plate 4 for fixing the track plate 4 to the connecting belt 1, a plurality of threaded holes 7 provided on both sides of the track plate 4 for accommodating screws for connection, a plurality of connecting holes 8 provided on the top of the track plate 4 for accommodating the connector 3, and a plurality of fixing components provided inside the track plate 4 for fixing the connector 3;
[0031] Each fixing component includes a fixing ring 9 and a spring 10. The outer wall of each fixing ring 9 is slidably connected to the inside of the track plate 4 to restrict the movement of the connector 3. Each spring 10 is disposed inside the track plate 4 to provide elastic force to the fixing ring 9 and cooperates with the fixing ring 9 to restrict the connector 3 inside the connecting hole 8. One end of each spring 10 is fixedly connected to the inside of the track plate 4, and the other end of each spring 10 is fixedly connected to one side of the fixing ring 9. Each connecting component includes a connecting plate 5 and a fixing strip 6. One side of each connecting plate 5 is slidably connected to one side of the track plate 4 for connecting the fixing strip 6. One side of each fixing strip 6 is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting plate 5 for locking the track plate 4 and the connecting belt 1.
[0032] Specifically, when installing the track plate 4, the operator first picks up the track plate 4 and aligns the connecting hole 8 on the top of the track plate 4 with the position of the connector 3. Then, the track plate 4 is slowly moved closer to the connecting belt 1. During this process, the outer wall of the connector 3 will gradually come into contact with the retaining ring 9 and exert a squeezing effect, forcing the retaining ring 9 to slowly retract into the interior of the track plate 4 after being subjected to force. When the connector 3 reaches the deepest part of the connecting hole 8, the spring 10 hidden inside will push the retaining ring 9 outward. At this moment, the track plate 4 and the connecting belt 1 are connected together. Then, the two connecting plates 5 are taken out, ensuring that they are aligned with the positions of the threaded holes 7 on both sides of the track plate 4. Then, the connecting plates 5 are installed on both sides of the track plate 4 using screws. In this step, the fixing strip 6 is inserted into the top of the connecting belt 1. At this point, the installation of the track plate 4 is completed.
[0033] ReferenceFigure 4 A rubber plate 11 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the track shoe 4 for contact with the ground. Multiple anti-slip strips 12 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the rubber plate 11 to increase the contact area between the rubber plate 11 and the ground, thereby increasing the friction of the equipment. The anti-slip strips 12 are arranged in a parallel array at the bottom of the rubber plate 11. Multiple friction strips 13 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the anti-slip strips 12 to increase the contact area between the anti-slip strips 12 and the ground, enhancing the anti-slip performance of the equipment. The friction strips 13 are arranged in a parallel array at the bottom of the anti-slip strips 12. Multiple friction strips 14 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the rubber plate 11 to increase the contact area between the rubber plate 11 and the ground. The friction strips 14 are arranged in a parallel array between the anti-slip strips 12. Each anti-slip strip 12 has an anti-slip groove 15. The anti-slip groove 15 is herringbone shaped to enhance the lateral anti-slip performance of the track plate 4 and help the vehicle maintain stability when turning or skidding. Each anti-slip groove 15 is arranged in a parallel array at the bottom of the rubber plate 11, and the outer wall of each friction strip 14 is slidably connected to the inside of the anti-slip groove 15.
[0034] Specifically, when the equipment starts operating, the anti-slip strips 12 at the bottom of the rubber plate 11 slowly move to contact the ground. The friction strips 13 on the surface of the anti-slip strips 12 are arranged in a regular and staggered manner. These friction strips 13 increase the contact area between the anti-slip strips 12 and the ground. At the same time, friction strips 14 are embedded in the evenly distributed anti-slip grooves 15 on the surface of the rubber plate 11. The presence of friction strips 14 increases the contact area between the surface of the rubber plate 11 and the ground. In this way, under the dual action of friction strips 13 and friction strips 14, the friction between the surface of the rubber plate 11 and the ground is significantly increased, providing a solid guarantee for the stable operation of the equipment on complex terrain.
[0035] Working principle: When using modular rubber track pads, during track pad 4 installation, first align the connecting hole 8 at the top of track pad 4 with the position of connector 3. Then, bring track pad 4 and connecting belt 1 closer together, allowing connector 3 to enter the connecting hole 8. During this process, the outer wall of connector 3 presses against retaining ring 9, causing it to retract into track pad 4. When connector 3 reaches its deepest point in connecting hole 8, retaining ring 9 pops out under the action of spring 10, thus connecting track pad 4 and connecting belt 1 together. Then, remove the two connecting plates 5 and align them... The threaded holes 7 on both sides of the track plate 4 are positioned and installed on both sides of the track plate 4, so that the fixing strip 6 is inserted into the upper part of the connecting belt 1. Then, the screws are installed into the threaded holes 7 to complete the installation of the track plate 4. When the equipment is put into use, the anti-slip strip 12 at the bottom of the rubber plate 11 contacts the ground. The friction strip 13 on its surface increases the contact area between the anti-slip strip 12 and the ground. At the same time, the friction strip 14 inside the anti-slip groove 15 increases the contact area between the surface of the rubber plate 11 and the ground, thereby increasing the friction of the surface of the rubber plate 11.
[0036] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
