Track tensioning means for tracked vehicles.

摘要

Tensioning means for the tracks of a tracked vehicle comprise a pair of hydraulically-operated, double-acting rams (6) connected one to the idler wheel (2) of each track (4) in such a manner that extension and/or retraction of the rams effects movement of the associated idler wheels (2), and a hydraulic circuit (14 to 24) for controlling the movement of said rams (6), and therefore of the idler wheels (2), actuation of the hydraulic circuit being effected from within the personel compartment of the vehicle.
