Methods, apparatuses, and devices for providing traction to a tracked vehicle

A traction device for providing traction to a tracked vehicle, the traction device comprising:

• a grouser bar disposable on at least one track portion of a track of the tracked vehicle, wherein the grouser bar comprises at least one traction element comprised in a top surface of the grouser bar, wherein the at least one traction element is configured to interface with at least one surface for providing traction for the track on the at least one surface, wherein a bottom surface of the grouser bar juxtaposes at least one outer surface of the at least one track portion, wherein the bottom surface opposes the top surface;
• a down plate attached to the grouser bar, wherein a top edge of the down plate is attached to a butt end of the grouser bar, wherein the down plate extends over a side surface of the track along a depth of the track;
• a bottom plate attached to the down plate, wherein a first edge of the bottom plate is attached to a bottom edge of the down plate, wherein the down plate is substantially perpendicular to at least one of the grouser bar and the bottom plate, wherein the bottom plate is parallel to the grouser bar, wherein the bottom plate comprises at least one nut coaxially disposed around at least one hole comprised in the bottom plate;
• a pressure plate movably disposed between the grouser bar and the bottom plate, wherein a superior surface of the pressure plate juxtaposes at least one inner surface of the at least one track portion, wherein the pressure plate is substantially parallel to at least one of the grouser bar and the bottom plate, wherein the pressure plate is substantially perpendicular to the down plate;
• and
• at least one bolt threadedly coupled to the at least one nut, wherein the at least one bolt is movably coupled with the pressure plate, wherein a first end of the at least one bolt interfaces with an inferior surface of the pressure plate, wherein the at least one bolt is configured for moving the pressure plate between a plurality of positions in relation to the bottom plate based on at least one action receivable on a second end of the at least one bolt, wherein the superior surface presses against the at least one inner surface and the bottom surface presses against the at least one outer surface in at least one first position of the plurality of positions for cinching the at least one track portion between the grouser bar and the pressure plate, wherein the superior surface does not press against the at least one inner surface and the bottom surface does not press against the at least one outer surface in at least one second position of the plurality of positions for not cinching the at least one track portion between the grouser bar and the pressure plate, wherein the traction device attaches to the at least one track portion in the at least one first position, wherein the traction device detaches from the at least one track portion in the at least one second position.
