CZ28888U1 - Collecting basket for chopping block - Google Patents

Description

The technical solution is a simple tool for speeding up and facilitating the work of chopping and chopping wood by hand, with a one-handed or two-handed ax or similar tool. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

With simultaneous manual splitting or chopping of logs, the logs are usually laid on a log in a vertical position on the ground, and the ax splits or chopped logs into smaller pieces, suitable for further use - for combustion, storage, drying etc. When splitting logs with a two-handed ax, the log is not retained in any way by the log, and after splitting, the resulting smaller logs usually fall from the log to the ground. When splitting or chopping with a one-handed ax, the piece of wood to be processed is usually held on one log with one hand, and the other hand splits or cuts the wood into smaller pieces with the ax. The pieces of wood which are chipped or cut off usually fall to the ground or leave the log, leaving only the remaining, retained part of the log on the log. Fallen and flying pieces of wood must then be collected individually before they are further chopped and chopped into smaller pieces or before their further use. Collecting wood is tedious and inconvenient. During the splitting and chopping alone, flying pieces of wood can be dangerous to their surroundings, they may fit inappropriately somewhere.

The essence of the technical solution

The aforementioned deficiencies are largely eliminated and the splitting and chopping of the wood speeds up and facilitates the collection basket around the work surface of the log, which catches falling and flying pieces of wood while splitting and chopping the wood while allowing the ax or other hand tools to move freely. and allows the wood pieces to be laid freely laid on the log work surface. In the basket also a certain amount of chopped and chopped pieces of wood is collected, and from there the wood is conveniently removed for further use or for further splitting and chopping into smaller pieces. According to the size of the log, according to the method and intensity of use, according to the usual location of the basket at work and during its storage, according to the requirements for reparability and used technology of the basket production, , and a method of fastening the basket around the work surface of the log. Examples of certain suitable shape, dimensions, material design of baskets and methods of their use are shown in the attached drawings 1 to 4.

Clarification of drawings

Figure 1 shows a collection basket for universal use. The basket is two-piece. The first part is the actual basket 1 with rotatable catch caps 1.1 and 1.2. The second part is a support ring 2, which is permanently fixed to a particular block 3, on which the first part is fitted with its catches and removed after completion of the work.

In Figure 2, the same collection basket as in Figure 1 is mounted on a log and is ready for splitting large logs. The catch caps 1.1 and 1.2 are in the "open" position, splintered pieces of logs do not tend to come out of the basket, they fall downwards.

In Fig. 3, the same collection basket as in Figs. 1 and 2 is mounted on a log and ready for chopping branches. The catch caps 1.1 and 1.2 are in the "closed" position, the cut pieces of the branches tend to fly up from the basket, the catch caps catch them and reflect down into the basket.

In the drawing 4 there is a simple collecting basket 4 intended only for splitting short logs and permanently fixed on one log. Figure 5 shows the situation after splitting a short log with a two-handed ax, and Figure 6 shows the situation with continued splitting of the log into smaller halves with a single-handed ax.

Examples of technical solutions

Figures 1 to 3 show a collection basket made up to now of several welded and bolted circular profiles of 5.6 and 8 mm diameter, of flat steel with a cross-section of 3 x 20 mm and of zinc-coated welded mesh with 25 x 25 mesh mm and 15x15 mm caps.

The length of the collecting bin is 800 mm, the width is 500 mm and the height is 300 mm, the working volume of the bin is 120 liters. The hopper bottom and the hopper wall are screwed together. The suspension ring has an inner diameter of 355 mm and can be attached to the logs with a diameter of approximately 200 to 350 mm by means of its four flexible angled brackets. The basket is placed on the log so that its bottom is approx. 130 mm below the log work surface. The basket fastening mechanism on the attached pendant ring allows the basket to be rotated relative to the billet into several positions around the billet working surface to evenly wear the billet working surface. The catch caps are freely rotatable around the upper short edges of the basket, and in the working position of the cap lie freely on the upper edges of the basket. And, if the chopping and chopping is carried out on the user ' s farm on multiple blocks, it is preferable to provide each of these blocks with their own carrier ring or other basket attachment device, and to use only one collection basket for multiple blocks.

In Fig. 4, there is a collection basket made so far in only one embodiment. For mere block logs and the ability to keep the basket permanently attached to a single single log is entirely satisfactory, but users prefer a universal basket, and above all require that the basket be removed from the log and placed away from the log to prevent it from obstructing the log. or he was not in open air under the adverse influence of the air.
