ABSTRACT:
A track or drive belt assembly primarily for use with snowmobiles. The drive belt assembly includes a unitarily formed, continuous or endless, flexible drive belt having an inner side and an outer ground engaging side. The unitary drive belt assembly includes a central endless section and a pair of laterally spaced endless side sections. A plurality of longitudinally spaced members unitarily interconnect the side sections to the central belt section. A plurality of unitary drive lugs project inwardly from the inner side of each of the belt sections and selected lugs are located proximate to the unitary interconnecting members. A plurality of rigid members are connected to the drive belt. Each rigid member has a first section that is fixed to the one interconnecting member and a second or offset section which is in supporting and cooperative relationship with each of the selected lug members. The lug members and rigid metal members cooperate to guide the movement of the drive belt relative to the slide rail suspension system, commonly used on snowmobiles.
