ABSTRACT:
Improvements in road-protecting devices for tracked vehicles removably securable to the individual elements of the tracks; road protecting devices having resilient tensioning devices associated therewith operable to strongly retain such on the tracks even when the track elements are aggregate loaded; improved tensioning and connecting means for road protecting devices which are largely located out of the load thrust lines of use whereby the devices may be entirely of resilient deformable rubber without basing or cover plates or bolts or ties associated therewith; high capacity tension devices of resilient character received within the bodies of resilient protective devices at least in part with track connecting means located out of the thrust line; improved track engaging means (connecting devices) which retain engagement on individual track elements despite temporary relief of tension thereon due to turning of the tracked vehicle.
