The invention discloses a rotary cutter for log
processing. The rotary cutter comprises a
machine base, a pushing mechanism and a rotary
cutting mechanism. A driving shaft is arranged in the rotary
cutting mechanism, a plurality of gear sheets are arranged on the driving shaft, pressure bars are arranged at the upper ends of the gear sheets, the pressure bars and the gear sheets are arranged at intervals, rotary cutters are arranged at the lower ends of the gear sheets, and the rotary cutters are mounted on the rotary
cutting mechanism through retaining assemblies. According to the rotary cutter for log
processing, by arranging the pressing bars and the gear pieces which are alternately arranged at intervals, fibers on logs can be extruded and broken through the driving teeth on the gear pieces, meanwhile,
extrusion is achieved in cooperation with the
knurling faces, and the logs can be conveniently
cut by the rotary cutter. Meanwhile, by rotating the rotating piece, the first holding piece and the second holding piece are separated, the rotary cutter can be conveniently taken out and replaced, the rotary cutter does not need to enter a rotary cutting area to unscrew a bolt, the rotary cutter can be rapidly disassembled and assembled, the rotary cutter can be replaced in time, and normal production work is guaranteed.
