ABSTRACT:
A vehicle supporting endless traction band including an endless resilient band of concavo-convex transverse shape and a pair of assemblies for supporting and protecting opposite sides of the band. The assemblies are similar to conventional roller chains except that the inner support links (those adjacent the sides of the band) are configured to pivot on the chain studs and to define slots into which the side margins of the band are received. A plurality of tension resistant members obliquely span the space between the roller chain assemblies on the concave side of the band to prevent the band from buckling when subjected to concentrated loads.
