Abstract
1,040,940. Endless track vehicles. INTERNATIONAL HARVESTER CO. May 22, 1963 [May 22, 1962], No. 20372/63. Heading B7H. The idler supports means of an endless track vehicle is securable in more than one vertical position to vary the height of idler 19 from the ground. The idler axle 31, Fig. 1, is mounted in a yoke 18 slidably supported on shafts 34 and bolted to accentric plate 21 on rod 15 of adjustable shock absorber and track tensioner 14. Each shaft 34 is mounted in two split blocks 36, 37 each block, Fig. 5 (not shown) comprising a high portion 46 and a low portion 47 with corresponding semicircular recesses for shaft 34. To lower idler 19 from the position shown in full lines in Fig. 1 the blocks 36, 37 and plate 21 are inverted. Axial movement of each shaft 34 is prevented by a bolt 48, Fig. 5 (not shown), engaging a recess 51a of the shaft. In a modification (Fig. 11, not shown) the front end of shaft 34a is welded in a bore in invertable block 55 which is bolted to the track frame 10 and the rear end has an eccentric extension 69 supported in a bore in a block 65 welded to the track frame. Alternatively (Fig. 8, not shown) a split block 37 may support the front end of shaft 34 while its rear end is welded to a block 55. In a further alternative (Figs. 13, 14, not shown) both ends of a shaft 34b have eccentric extensions mounted in blocks welded to the track frame 10, and to permit removal of the shaft the forward block 75 is provided with a removable sleeve 78.
