Definitions

  • the invention relates to a Lochrotorentring machine with a rotor having a central through hole for performing the tree trunk to be debarked and an outer ring, with a clamping device for knife tools, wherein at least one tangentially in the direction of the tree trunk pivotally mounted knife arm is hinged tocomposingzing on the one in comparison to Weight of the knife arm significantly heavier counterweight acts by centrifugal force.
  • a Lockrotozentiondrungsmeschine of the generic type is from the US-A-3 409 057 and the US-A-3,058,500 known.
  • the counterweight is provided beyond the pivot bearing.
  • the counterweight is provided on the other side of the rotor ring.
  • Measuring arm and counterweight are firmly connected to each other via the shaft, which is rotatably mounted in a bearing of the rotor ring.
  • attenuators are provided in the form of tensionable spring assemblies that act on a lever assembly that is also connected to the shaft.
  • knife assemblies (five) are arranged distributed on a circumferential path.
  • an endless Gummibannband is provided, which is arranged to run over rollers on all counterweights and causes shock absorption.
  • the centrifugal forces are converted due to the leverage laws into usable energy for clamping the knife tools for regulating the contact pressure of the knife to the tree trunk, as well as for independent opening of the knife tools at standstill Rotor exploited, eg with the help of the circulating, prestressed rubber band.
  • the invention is based on the object to improve a clamping device such that each blade assembly is individually shock-damped and thus can avoid unevenness of the tree trunk and is simple in construction to be manufactured and assembled cost.
  • a weight - heavier than the debarking knife - is mounted on the opposite side of the support shaft of the knife tool at a point outside the center of the axle, that with the rotor running by the centrifugal force of each required pressure of the knife towards the center of the axle of the rotor results.
  • This weight can also be arranged offset to the knife shaft axis and connected via an elastic tool according to the law of levers with the blade shaft.
  • the clamping technology according to the invention can be brought from their use and their technical equipment ago in all other rotors suitable for use.
  • the clamping mechanism for the knife tools is mounted on one side of the hole rotor disc, on the opposite side of the disc are the knife tools themselves. Both are connected via a mounted shaft which is fixed to the rotor disc.
  • the torque of the clamping mechanism must first be brought to a shaft, which is usually provided with a keyway.
  • the mounted shaft brings the torque forces on the other side of the rotor disk to the knife tool. It is required in each case a corresponding holder for the torque absorption of the clamping mechanism and the knife tool.
  • the clamping device which is based on centrifugal force for the knife tools, is characterized in that the blade arm is connected via elastic means to the counterweight, whereby torque peaks between the blade arm and counterweight are buffered, but at the same time the centrifugal force is transmitted to the blade arm ,
  • the Lochrotorentring machine has a much heavier compared to the blade counterweight, which is mounted on the blade arm opposite side of the blade holding shaft.
  • the mounted knife holding shafts are mounted on the outer ring of the rotor.
  • the number of knife tools can vary as desired, for. B. from 2 to 8 knives, as well as the direction of rotation of the rotor.
  • the counterweight is mounted on the opposite side of the blade arm at a point outside the center of the knife support shaft that results in the running rotor by the centrifugal force of each required pressure of the knife towards the center of the rotor.
  • the counterweight is to be interpreted in its size so that the necessary knife pressure is ensured taking into account the forces acting on the counterweight centrifugal forces.
  • a self-contained elastic insert is provided which is firmly anchored both in the counterweight and in the blade holding shaft by suitable shaping and machining.
  • the material for the elastic insert can be chosen arbitrarily, but with the proviso that it is suitable to buffer all torque peaks between knife arm and counterweight.
  • the regulation of the blade voltage is determined exclusively by the speed of the rotor.
  • the centrifugal force is transmitted here, at the same time also achieves the desired damping.
  • the elastic aids such as rubber bands, springs and hydraulic components on the counterweight, they can work on both thrust and traction.
  • the elastic tools can be attached, depending on the arrangement - right or left of the blade shaft taking into account the lever law - and texture on thrust or tensile force base in order to achieve the effects described.
  • the aids must always be slightly biased.
  • the clamping mechanism and the knife tool are mounted together on one side of the rotor disc, with no interposed shaft with Keilnutfactn. On the opposite side of the rotor disk is only the receptacle for the ball bearing.
  • the knife tool can be bolted in a further embodiment directly to the socket on which the clamping mechanism is mounted by means of screws and cone nuts, such as a truck wheel.
  • the clamping mechanism and the knife tool can also be mounted on a fixedly mounted on the rotor disk shaft journals.
  • a cover plate can be provided between the knife tool and the clamping mechanism.
  • Fig. 1 shows a hole rotor in front view with respect to the mounted on the outer ring of the rotor 8 knife tools, the stored blade holding shafts 4 and their center axes.
  • the number of knife tools can vary as desired, for. B. from 2 to 8 knives, as well as the direction of rotation of the rotor.
  • the counterweight 2 is compared to the knife arm 1 much heavier.
  • Knife arm 1 and counterweight 2 are each opposite to each other at the ends of the blade holding shafts 4 with the resulting flight zones a u. b arranged.
  • Fig. 2 shows a perforated rotor according to the invention in rear view with respect to the attached to the outer ring of the rotor 8 counterweights 2, the mounted blade holding shafts 4 and between the blade shaft 4 and counterweight 2 incorporated elastic insert 3.
  • knife arm 1 and counterweight 2 are each opposite to each other at the ends of the blade holding shafts 4 with the resulting flight zones a u. b arranged.
  • Fig. 3 shows the mounted blade shaft 4, at one end of the blade arm and at the other end of the counterweight 2 are attached.
  • Knife arm 1 and counterweight 2 are in turn mounted and fixed to the outer ring of the hole rotor 8.
  • the elastic insert 3 between knife arm 1 and counterweight 2 is necessary to buffer jerky torque changes of the blade arm 1 in its effect on the counterweight 2.
  • a star-shaped rubber buffer is selected, which is firmly anchored once with its toothing in the toothing of the knife shaft 4 and once in the toothing of the counterweight 2.
  • the elastic insert 3 is movable in any direction, it can easily rotate between its two gears.
  • Fig. 4 shows the rear view of the hole rotor with the counterweight 2 for the debarking and the arrangement of additional tools (6) with low clamping force for knife span and closing the knife, such.
  • B rubber band, spring, hydraulic component.
  • the additional blade tensioning means 6 assumes here a certain proportion of the balancing effect of the counterweight 2 on the centrifugal force tendency of the blade arms 1, so that it can be selected somewhat more easily.
  • the percentage of counterweight 2 and tool 6 for knife margins on the increase of the knife pressure can be chosen arbitrarily.
  • Fig. 5 shows the rear view of the hole rotor with the counterweight 2 for the debarking knife and the arrangement of additional aids 7 (such as rubber band, spring, hydraulic component) with low clamping force for knife clamping and opening the knife.
  • aids 7 reduce the centrifugal forces occurring in the counterweight 2 to their traction.
  • the counterweight 2 must therefore be chosen heavier by the tensile force of the aid 7 in order to maintain the blade contact pressure constant. With decreasing rotor speed or at a standstill of the rotor then pulls the elastic tool 7 due to its stored energy in the counterweight 2 to the rotor center, which has the consequence that the knife tools open automatically.
  • the tools used 7, depending on their nature and arrangement, work on the counterweight 2 on both thrust and traction.
  • Fig. 6 shows the offset to the knife shaft axis 4a on the side facing away from the knife tools side of the rotor outer ring 8 (bearing 9) counterweights 2a with the elastic tools 10, via which they are 2a connected to the blade shaft 4a according to the lever law.
  • these 10 can work on thrust or traction.
  • the application example shows the tension variant.
  • the elastic aids 11 corresponding to the tools 6 and 7 be considered taking into account the lever law, depending on the nature and arrangement of the counterweight 2a act on thrust or traction.
  • Aid 11 are attached taking into account the leverage law.
  • elastic connection 10 of counterweight 2a and knife support shaft 4a - it can be mounted in several variants - is the in Fig. 3 shown, stored in elastic insert 3 superfluous.
  • Fig. 7 shows in cross section a rotor disk 8 with the top mounted pulley 20.
  • To the left of the rotor disk 8 is the rotary joint (ball bearing) 9.
  • To the right of the rotor disk 8 is fixed to the rotor disk shaft 16 with the seated ball bearing 15 can be seen.
  • the backup of the two ball bearings 9, 15 via lock nuts 15 a.
  • the bush 13 On the two ball bearings 15, the bush 13 is seated, on this bushing 13, in turn, the entire clamping mechanism, which is anchored on both the sleeve 13 and the rotor disk 8. Laterally on this bush 13, on the side facing away from the rotor, threaded holes 12a are incorporated into this, which allow the attachment of a knife tool by means of screws 12 and cone nuts directly to the bushing 13 clearance.
  • the ball bearing 9 for receiving the rotor disk 8 can optionally also be placed below the clamping mechanism.
  • a cover plate 4 is installed between the knife tool and clamping mechanism.
  • Fig. 8 shows the attachment of an essential compared to the main blade 23 additional blade 21 on the arm 1 of a knife tool. It is screwed with the cone screws 12 laterally on the blade arm 1. The necessary stability brings the main blade 23. The main blade arm 1 is kept a little shorter and the additional blade 21 much weaker than the main blade 23 is selected.
  • Fig. 9 also shows the attachment of an additional blade 21 on the main blade 23, but here approximately on the last quarter of the main blade length.
