WHAT DOES GROUSER MEAN IN ENGLISH?

grouser

Grouser

A grouser or cleat is a protrusion on the surface of a wheel or continuous track segment, intended to increase traction in soil, snow, or other loose material, in the same manner as cleated shoes provide traction to athletes. Track segments which incorporate grouser bars are known as grouser shoes, and typically include one to three grousers. Grousers are commonly used on construction vehicles such as bulldozers, loaders, and excavators, as well as tanks, tractors, and snowmobiles. They have also found use in such extreme environments as the deep sea floor, and the surfaces of the Moon and Mars. Grousers may take the form of flat plates or bars, or may have more complex shapes, including spikes and involute curves, depending on the type of terrain and the performance requirements of the vehicle. Cleats for round wheels are sometimes also called lugs, as are the protrusions molded into rubber tractor tire treads, which perform a similar function. Unlike rubber tire treads or crawler track shoe pads however, grousers are typically made of metal, such as forged steel, and are not designed for use on paved roads.
