ABSTRACT:
An off road vehicle of the kind having fluid-distensible bag rollers for supporting the vehicle load uses bag rollers which are constructed to afford maximum flexibility in both the walls and tread and which are also constructed to be dynamically balanced.
A top drive roller is associated with a bag roller in certain embodiments of the off road vehicle in ways which minimize bag wear.
Specific bag constructions are provided for improved operation of the off road vehicle for on-highway use.
The bag roller in a fixed position serves as a transport device for supporting and moving material having uneven and/or fragile surfaces and, in a specific embodiment, is mounted in a support for use as a transportation element in a conveyer system, or as a forceful puller for lineal objects, such as pipelines, accommodating uneven dimensions.
