Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for eccentric cutting of veneers from a wood block according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such devices are used to cut from a block of wood thin panels, which are also called veneers.
  • the process is also called knifes.
  • the wood block is clamped on a bearing surface formed by a flat surface of a beam construction. This is rotatably mounted about its horizontal longitudinal axis, so that with each rotational movement a veneer is cut with a parallel to the longitudinal axis and mounted on the beam construction to be moved knife.
  • Such devices are also known as Staylog knife machines.
  • the DE 30 26 162 C2 describes a generic Staylog- knife machine, engage the claws for clamping a wood block in grooves in the base of the wood block.
  • a clamping device is arranged with laterally engaging in the wood block claws. The claws can be swung away when the block has been cut to a certain size.
  • the known Staylog knives have either a beam construction, which has a relatively wide contact surface and thus large width. This has the disadvantage that the remainder of the wood block, which can not be further cut, because otherwise the knife would protrude into the beam construction, is still large and therefore the utilization of the wood for veneer production is not optimal and continue to dispose of the remaining block ,
  • the object of the invention is to improve a Staylog- knife machine so that without sacrificing performance a consistently high quality of the veneer is achieved with optimum utilization of the wood block.
  • the object is solved by the characterizing features of claim 1.
  • the laterally over the support surface projecting ends of the wood block are supported. This is especially important for wide blocks of wood and as the cutting progresses, that is, as the wood block decreases in thickness.
  • the means for supporting reduce the risk of swinging and dodging the longitudinal ends of the wood block. This leads to consistently high quality of the individual veneer sheets even at the end of the cutting process.
  • the means for supporting are movably arranged, they can be removed from the area in which the knife acts shortly before the end of the cutting process. As a result, the wood block can be cut to veneer to a minimum.
  • a veneer knife machine consists of a base frame 1 on which a tool carriage 2 with a knife carrier 3 is fastened on one side and a stay log beam arrangement 4 on the other side.
  • the tool carriage 2 is mounted on two parallel rails 6 in a horizontal plane movable back and forth, as symbolized by the arrow 5.
  • the tool carriage 2 is guided with guide elements 7 which are fixed to a machine frame 8, with minimal play and against rotation on the rails 6 and driven by hydraulic cylinders 14.
  • the knife carrier 3 On top of the machine frame 8, the knife carrier 3 is fastened with a knife 10 so that it is displaceably mounted in the direction of the arrow 9 and rotatable about an axis in the region of a downward-pointing cutting edge of the knife 10.
  • the knife 10 and thus its cutting edge extend at right angles to the direction of movement of the tool carriage 2.
  • the knife 10 is arranged in the side of the knife carrier 3, which lies opposite the staylog beam arrangement 4.
  • the rotational and displaceability of the blade carrier 3 relative to the machine frame 8, which is required for the adjustment of its position relative to a pressure bar 11 described below, is ensured by various hydraulic cylinders.
  • pressure bar 11 is attached to the machine frame 8. Pressure bar 11 and blade 10 are adjusted in operation so that a short distance is maintained between the two.
  • the staylog beam assembly 4 is mounted on the base frame 1 such that the horizontal longitudinal axis of its beam construction 12 is parallel to the edge of the blade 10.
  • the beam construction 12 shown more clearly in FIGS. 2 and 3 is rotatably mounted between two housing walls 13 and connected to a drive (not shown).
  • a wood block 16 by means of clamping jaws 17 can be clamped, which protrude in two rows parallel to the longitudinal axis of the beam construction 12 from the support surface 15, wherein the rows of clamping jaws 17 by means suitable, not shown Drives are movable toward and away from each other.
  • the clamping jaws 17 engage in grooves 18, which are embedded in a base of the wood block 16. The distances between the clamping jaws 17 and the grooves 18 are matched to one another.
  • first shaft 20 is connected to a rotary drive, not shown.
  • the veneer knife machine corresponds to the state of the art.
  • the further development relates to retractable and retractable means for supporting the longitudinal, over the beam construction 12 projecting ends 25 of the wood block 16.
  • the means for supporting the bottom of the base of the wood block 16 engage, that is, in the plane of the support surface 15 along its lateral ends 25 next to the support surface 15th
  • the means for supporting have support plates 21 which are located on the sides of the beam construction 12 on which the retaining claws 19 are arranged.
  • the support plates 21 are arranged such that retaining claws 19 and support plates 21 alternate over the length of the beam construction 12.
  • Each support plate 21 consists of a sheet of about 10 - 15 mm thickness, which is attached with a first longitudinal end via three equally spaced arms 22 to a second shaft 23. The longitudinal edge of the second end is in the extended state (working position) in a plane with the support surface 15 and supports in clamped wood block 16 whose longitudinal ends 25 linear. In a rest position, the longitudinal edge of the support plate 21 bears against the beam construction 12.
  • recesses are arranged in each support plate.
  • the second shaft 23 is rotatably mounted in brackets, not shown, which are fixed to the beam structure 12.
  • Each arm 22 has seen in the direction along the second shaft 23 in the form of a laterally seen hand, which includes the support plate 21 in the region of its first longitudinal end. Each arm 22 is secured against rotation on the shaft 23 with e.g. attached to a erklemmitati.
  • the means for supporting are assigned as hydraulic cylinders 24 trained drives. For this purpose, a middle of the three arms 22 at its opposite end of the support plate 21, which is extended lever arm, connected to a piston of the hydraulic cylinder 24 which is fixed to the beam construction 12.
  • the thickness of each arm 22 is about 25 mm.
  • the means for supporting a associated with a control for the cutting operation control is associated.
  • the control is connected to the hydraulic cylinder 24.
  • the tool carriage 2 In operation, which runs with the exception of the use of the support plates 21 as known from the prior art, the tool carriage 2 is first moved back to the maximum possible distance to the Staylog beam arrangement 4 - the so-called rest position. It is clamped a wooden block 16 by means of the clamping jaws 17 and the retaining claws 19 on the beam structure 12 and the support plates 21 in the Driven working position. The tool carriage 2 is moved to a working position so that a small horizontal gap between the outermost circle of rotation of the wood block 16 and the cutting edge of the blade 10 remains. The drive for the beam construction 12 is turned on, so that it is rotated with the clamped wood block 16 about its longitudinal axis in the counterclockwise direction as indicated by arrow 26 in FIG.
  • the tool carriage 2 travels a defined distance in the direction of the staylog beam arrangement 4, this distance corresponding to the desired thickness of the veneer sheet. This process is repeated until so many veneer sheets are cut from the wood block 16 that there is only a minimal remainder of the wood block 16 left that can not be cut further because the knife 10 would protrude into the beam construction.
  • the veneer knife machine will be stopped automatically.
  • the cut veneer sheets are transported away automatically.
  • the tool carriage 2 is returned to its rest position. It is a new block of wood 16 clamped, and the process begins again.
