Abstract:
A crawler vehicle, comprising a body frame and an auger, wherein the auger is installed, as a working device, at the front part of the body frame, the body frame further comprises a crawler belt connected vertically swingably to the rear part of a crawler frame through a pivot shaft, and the pivot shaft is disposed forward of a lower rolling ring installed rotatably on the crawler frame, whereby, because the pivot shaft is positioned forward of the lower rolling ring, even if the front part of the crawler belt acts so as to rise upward, the auger will lower, and thus the auger can be lowered irrespective of whether the snow is new or solid to efficiently perform the snow removing operation.
