ENDLESS TRACK FOR A VEHICLE

摘要

The endless track is made of a reinforced rubber material with longitudinall y spaced and transversely disposed ridges or lugs. It is particularly well-adapted fo r recreational snowmobiles having a single track. The ground-engaging side of the track features a tread pattern that is repeated uniformly or not over the entire length of the track. The tread pattern comprises a plurality of projecting traction lugs each an upper edge having which together delimit the general outline of a cross- sectional transversal traction lug profile when viewed along a longitudinal direction. The track is characterized in that the traction lug profile comprises a substantially flat central or interior section and two opposite exterior or lateral sections located on th e sides of the interior section and that taper toward the exterior. Such track facilitates the steering capabilities of a snowmobile, particularly when the snowmobile is travelling on hard and abrasive surfaces. It also improves the durability of the track.
