Definitions

  • a hydraulic control piston acts on the one end of the shaft of the top feed roller, the two racks of which are coupled together through an idler pinion shaft.
  • This construction does not, however, prevent tilting because, during the upward or downward movement of the toothed racks, the lower surfaces of the teeth on one rack and the upper surfaces of the teeth on the other rack always rest against the corresponding pinion-shaft teeth.
  • a sprocket is keyed onto one end of the pinion shaft which raises and lowers the toothed rack, and a chain, on which the control piston of a horizontally mounted hydraulic cylinder acts, runs over the sprocket.
  • the thrust movement of the piston is only converted into the rotary movement of the pinion shaft through the chain drive, as a result of which the transmission system becomes complicated, liable to breakdown, and inaccurate, particularly in the event of a reversal of movement.
  • a hydraulic adjustment which meets all the requirements is provided in a simple manner on a frame saw having a saw frame comprising at least one adjustable top feed roller and at least one bottom driving roller, the article to be sawn being conveyed between these rollers, at least one toothed rack on which the top feed roller is supported in the frame, and a shaft which is mounted in the frame and has a pinion which is operationally connected to the toothed rack, the combination of a hydraulic rotary motor, a rotary pump for the hydraulic rotary motor, and an electric motor in driving connection with the pump of a regulating device in order to control the output of the hydraulic rotary motor, the hydraulic rotary motor being directly coupled to the shaft carrying the pinion as a result of which the toothed rack and the top feed roller can be moved up and down and the material being sawn is weighted when the top feed roller rests thereon with a pressure which is derived from the initial torque of the hydraulic rotary motor.
  • a further important advantage of the common drive according to the invention consists in that the speedtorque characteristic of the infinitely variable hydraulic rotary motor is also effective for the rotary drive of the feed rollers, in a manner which is desirable for frame-saw operation because with large diameter logs, a high feed power is available with a slow rate of feed, in keeping with and necessary for the heavy pressure of the top rollers, and conversely, with small diameter logs, a low feed force is available with a high rate of feed in keeping with and desirable for the low pressure of the top feed rollers.
  • Figure 1 shows a hydraulic adjusting and driving device according to the invention, seen from the side of the frame;
  • Figure 3a shows a section along the line II in Figure 1 with the rotor in such a position that the pump is delivering;
  • Figure 3b shows a section on the line II of Figure 1 with the rotor in such a position that the pump is not delivering;
  • Figure 4 shows a torque-speed characteristic curve for the rotary hydraulic drive of the saw frame, the position of the top feed rollers being illustrated in diagrammatic form for three different operating points.
  • each hydraulic unit or motor 1 serves to' adjust the height of a front and rear top feed roller.
  • the torque produced by each hydraulic unit or motor 1 is transmitted through coupling members 2 and the shaft 3 which is provided with teeth by milling and known as a pinionshaft, and the toothed rack 4, to the shaft of the top feed roller 5 ( Figure 2) so that the latter is raised or lowered or, if it is resting on the log, is weighted.
  • the container for the hydraulic medium for example oil
  • the container for the hydraulic medium for example oil
  • the rotor 23 of the hydraulic pump 6 or 7 is mounted, as shown in Figures 3a and 317, on the shaft 24 which is displaceable parallel to itself within the interior 25 of the stator, by actuation of the hand lever 11.
  • the diam eter of the interior 25'of the stator is larger than the diameter of the rotor 23.
  • the rotor 23 comprises deep grooves 26 which are arranged radially and in which are radial vanes 27 of rubber or the like which are constantly urged outwards, by resilient force, against the inner wall of the stator housing.
  • the hydraulic motors 1 may also be equipped with control rotors of the type which are actuated by means of the hand lever 20, or both the pumps and motors may comprise control rotors.
  • Figure 4 shows the torque-speed characteristic of such a drive for a saw-frame.
  • the particular operating point is selected by actuating the hand lever of the control rotors. As can be seen from the three diagrams, the selection of the operating point depends on the thickness of the log to be sawn.
  • a high pressure which corresponds to a heavy torque transmitted through the coupling 2, is necessary with large diameter logs in order to hold the heavy logs reliably in position.
  • the adjusting speed of the feed rollers only needs to be low because the large diameter of the log only leaves a small distance for the feed rollers to travel.
  • the log leaves a large distance over which the feed rollers have to travel quickly so as to save time.
  • the operating condition is met that the pressure should be low because otherwise there is a risk of a curved cut, for example as a result of distortion of the log as a result of the combination of high pressure and unevenness in the log.
  • Remote-control members which. are controlled in the usual manner, may, if necessary, act on the operating levers 11, 12 and 20.
  • the drive of the pumps 6, 7 is effected by means of two belt drivm 13, 14 which are driven by the electric motor 15 provided for the joint drive of the lifting means and the feed.
  • the motor also drives an infinitely variable rotary hydraulic gear 22, which comprises an infinitely variable oil pump and an infinitely variable oil motor, both of which may be similar in construction to the pumps 6, 7 and the motors 1 and which are actuated bymeans of the common lever 16.
  • the gear 22 drives the feed rollers 18 through the bevel wheels 17 and other transmission members.
  • the known characteristic of the infinitely variable hydraulic rotary motor which can be utilized according to the invention has an advantageous effect not only for raising and lowering, the roller but also for the advance of the logs according to the operational requirements which exist, in that the particular efiects desired for raising and feed are provided simultaneously.
  • a heavy torque is needed for the feed, with a low rate of feed and conversely, when the timber has a small diameter, a low torque is needed with a high rate of feed.
  • the heavy torques for raising and feed as well as the low torques always appear simultaneously, so that the requirements of frame-saw operation both for lifting and feed can always be met to. the best advantage.
