Operator safety device for a machine having sharp implements

InactiveUS20060197020A1Providing operator safetySafer for operatorRadiation pyrometryMaterial analysis by optical meansEngineeringHuman operator
A novel human operator safety device is disclosed for use with motorized machines that have a danger zone that includes sharp cutting implements that can potentially cause operator harm. The operator safety device includes an optical or thermal sensor for either processing optically derived information to determine whether an extremity of an operator is within a predetermined proximity of the danger zone of the machine and processing thermal information to determine whether an extremity of an operator is within a predetermined proximity of the danger zone of the machine. If a presence is detected, at least a portion of the machine what may cause operator harm is stopped. For example, a thermal camera, an optical camera, laser or thermal sensor is used for determining whether an extremity of an operator is within a predetermined proximity of the danger zone.

Active measurement and control system for a material cutting apparatus

An active measurement and control system for a material cutting apparatus. The apparatus comprises a cutting tool which may be pivoted for cutting a workpiece in a cutting area at a selectable angle. The cutting area defines a datum plane, and a feed table with a shuttle vise is used to move the workpiece toward the cutting area. A controller controls the feed distance of the shuttle vise and the cutting angle of the tool in response to a signal from a sensor used for sensing a transverse dimension of the workpiece relative to the datum plane. In this way, the feed distance and cutting angle are adjusted to compensate for variations in the transverse dimension. This transverse dimension can include a displacement from the datum plane of a distal and / or proximate surface of the workpiece. A method of cutting a workpiece is also disclosed.

Safety system for machine tools

A safety system for a rotary saw or other dangerous machine tools features a flesh-sensing circuit (14, 19), located on a safety guard (16) surrounding a dangerous machine part, which generates an electronic signal to trigger emergency stopping of the machine before the operator can contact the dangerous machine part. The stopping means preferably employs DC injection, winding current direction reversal and / or electromagnetic motor braking, in the event of detection of operator contact with the safety guarding device. The system is adapted to be used both with newly-manufactured machine tools and by retrofitting onto previously-manufactured machine tools, by in-the-field modifications.

Method and arrangement for adjusting feed rate of a crosscut saw

A method and arrangement for adjusting a feed rate of a crosscut saw (1), in particular, in a harvesting head of a forest machine during the crosscutting of wood (9) in the apparatus. A feed force (F) of the crosscut saw and / or a rotating rate (vchain) of a cutter chain (5) revolving around a guide bar (4) are thus controlled. The control is implemented such that first the feed rate (vfeed) of the crosscut saw (1) is measured at given intervals. By adjusting thereafter the feed force of the actuator (2) controlling the crosscut saw and / or the rotating rate (vchain) of the cutter chain (5) and by determining the effect of the performed adjustment on the feed rate of the crosscut saw any change (δv) in the feed rate and the most advantageous adjustment measure to be performed next is concluded.

Electromotive chain saw

The chain of an electromotive chain saw is quickly stopped by the combined use of an electric brake and a mechanical brake when a trigger member is turned off. The rear end of a brake band disposed to tighten a brake drum by operating a hand guard is secured to a bent rod. When the trigger member is released, the brake band is normally tightened around the outer periphery of a brake drum by the urging force of a coil spring. When the trigger member is released, a circuit provided with a brake winding is closed, thereby applying a dynamic braking force. When the dynamic brake force is applied, a centrifugal clutch is released quickly and the speed of stopping the brake drum is accelerated.

Radial sawing method

A radial sawing method for cutting a log into six sections. Each resulting section has a triangular wedge shape, such that in cross-section, an angle of approximately sixty-degrees (60°) at the interior edge of the log section is formed. The approximately 60° angle can be the point of an equilateral triangle. After the log has been formed into six pieces that are relatively equivalent in size and shape, each respective piece can then be fed into additional sawing machines for additional processing, such as to form symmetrically shaped pieces, include a circle, a square, a hexagon, an octagon, or other polygon pieces.
