[0032] This disclosure will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0033] like Figure 1-5As shown, a log splitter includes an operating table 101, a support plate 102, a clamp 103, and an axe 107. The operating table 101 is provided with a mounting block 104, and a connecting shaft 105 is rotatably connected to the mounting block 104. The axe 107 is mounted on the connecting shaft 105. The operating table 101 is provided with a motor 110 that drives the connecting shaft 105 to rotate. The motor 110 is a servo motor 110. The servo motor 110 has the advantages of high precision, stable speed, and fast response speed, which can realize precise control of the axe 107 and improve the precision and efficiency of splitting wood. Meanwhile, the use of servo motor 110 makes the log splitter more stable and reliable in operation, reducing the failure rate; the operating table 101 is provided with a clearance groove corresponding to the axe 107, the support plate 102 is slidably connected to the operating table 101, the clamp 103 is provided on the support plate 102, and the clamp 103 is partially protruding from the support plate 102; the support plate 102 and the clamp 103 are provided in two sets respectively.

[0034] The logs are placed on the support plate 102 and clamped and fixed by the clamp 103. The motor 110 drives the connecting shaft 105 to rotate, and the axe 107 rotates with the connecting shaft 105 and chops down from above the logs to split them. The split logs fall from the clearance groove, realizing the automated splitting of logs.

[0035] Furthermore, the support plate 102 is provided with a protruding plate 111, and the clamp 103 is provided with a first spring 112, one end of which is fixed to the protruding plate 111; the clamp 103 is provided with a first slider 115, and the support plate 102 is provided with a first sliding groove 116 for the first slider 115 to move; the first slider 115 and the first sliding groove 116 make the movement of the clamp 103 on the support plate 102 more stable; the clamp 103 has an arc-shaped structure, the top of the clamp 103 is provided with a flared opening, and the inner wall of the clamp 103 is provided with multiple anti-slip textures; the flared opening design makes it easier for the log to be placed between the two clamps 103, and the clamp 103 is used to fix the log.

[0036] The clamp 103, through the cooperation of the first spring 112 and the first slider 115, can clamp and fix logs of different diameters, improving the applicability and stability of the device. Under the action of the first spring 112, the clamping force of the clamp 103 on the log is increased, thereby improving the fixing effect. After the log is split, the first spring 112 pushes the clamp 103 towards the clearance groove, causing the split log to fall directly into the clearance groove, preventing the split log from remaining on the operating table 101 and affecting the splitting of the next log. Simultaneously, the arc-shaped structure of the clamp 103 and the flared design make it easier for the clamp 103 to wrap around the log, and the anti-slip texture further improves the clamping effect of the clamp 103 on the log, preventing the log from sliding or falling off during the splitting process.

[0037] Furthermore, the operating table 101 is provided with a mounting plate 113, which has a through hole through which a threaded rod 117 passes. The protruding plate 111 has a threaded hole through which the threaded rod 117 passes. One end of the threaded rod 117 is provided with a turntable, which has multiple protrusions to increase the friction of the turntable. The turntable allows for easy manual rotation of the threaded rod 117 to adjust the position of the support plate 102. The support plate 102 is provided with a second slider 119, and the operating table 101 is provided with a second slide groove 118 for the second slider 119 to move.

[0038] The threaded rod 117 and threaded hole allow for adjustment of the position of the support plate 102, further adapting to logs of different sizes and improving the applicability of the device. When adjusting the position of the support plate 102, rotating the threaded rod 117 causes it to move within the threaded hole, thereby pushing or pulling the convex plate 111 and the support plate 102 to adjust their position. Simultaneously, the second slider 119 and the second slide groove 118 ensure more stable movement of the support plate 102 on the operating table 101, preventing it from shaking or shifting during wood splitting.

[0039] Furthermore, the mounting plate 113 is provided with a slot, which communicates with the through hole. A fixing block 120 is provided in the slot. When the fixing block 120 is inserted into the slot, it contacts the side wall of the threaded rod 117. One end of the fixing block 120 is provided with a rubber pad. The fixing block 120 fixes the threaded rod 117 by contacting the side wall of the threaded rod 117 with the rubber pad.

[0040] The fixed block 120 is provided with a first movable groove, and a limiting block 121 is provided in the first movable groove. A second spring 122 is provided on the limiting block 121. One end of the second spring 122 is fixed to the inner wall of the first movable groove. The inner wall of the slot is provided with a limiting groove corresponding to the limiting block 121. The bottom of the limiting block 121 is provided with a slope, so that the fixed block 120 can be directly inserted into the slot.

[0041] The mounting plate 113 is provided with a second movable groove that communicates with the limiting groove. A push rod 123 is provided in the second movable groove, and an extension rod 124 is provided on the push rod 123. The extension rod 124 extends out from the second movable groove.

[0042] After the position of the support plate 102 is adjusted, the fixing block 120 is pushed into the slot. The fixing block 120 abuts against the side wall of the threaded rod 117. The limiting block 121 moves to the position of the limiting groove and inserts into the limiting groove. The limiting block 121 fixes the fixing block 120 so that the fixing block 120 continuously abuts against the threaded rod 117, thus fixing the threaded rod 117 and fixing the support plate 102. When it is necessary to adjust the position of the support plate 102, the extension rod 124 is pushed. The extension rod 124 drives the push rod 123 to move. The push rod 123 pushes the limiting block 121 out of the limiting groove. The limiting block 121 enters the first movable groove, and the fixing block 120 can be removed from the slot, making it convenient to rotate the threaded rod 117 to adjust the position of the support plate 102.

[0043] Furthermore, the connecting shaft 105 is provided with a mounting rod 106, and the axe 107 is provided with a sleeve 108. The sleeve 108 is fitted onto the mounting rod 106 and is fixed to the mounting rod 106 by bolts 109. Preferably, the sleeve 108 is provided with two bolts 109 to improve the fixing effect between the sleeve 108 and the mounting rod 106.

[0044] The sleeve 108 of the axe 107 is connected to the mounting rod 106 by bolts 109, facilitating the disassembly and replacement of the axe 107 and improving the flexibility and ease of maintenance of the device. When the axe 107 becomes dull or damaged after prolonged use, simply unscrew the bolts 109 to remove the axe 107 from the mounting rod 106 and replace it with a new one, eliminating the need to replace the entire wood splitter and reducing operating costs. Simultaneously, the design of the mounting rod 106 and sleeve 108 makes the installation of the axe 107 more stable and reliable, preventing it from shaking or falling off during use, thus improving the accuracy and safety of wood splitting.

[0045] An axe 107 is installed at each end of the mounting rod 106 to improve the working efficiency of the wood splitter; the blade of the axe 107 can be set into a cross-shaped structure to meet different log splitting needs.

[0046] To further improve the stability and safety of the wood splitter, the bottom of the operating platform 101 is also equipped with four support feet 114. The bottom of the support feet 114 is equipped with anti-slip pads, which can effectively prevent the wood splitter from sliding or deviating during operation.

[0047] This utility model discloses a log splitter that uses a motor 110 to drive an axe 107 to rotate and split logs, achieving automated log splitting, reducing the labor intensity of manual splitting, and improving splitting efficiency. Simultaneously, the clamp 103 and support plate 102 ensure the logs are clamped and fixed, preventing them from shaking or shifting during splitting, thus improving stability and safety. The threaded rod 117 and threaded hole allow for adjustment of the position of the support plate 102, further adapting to logs of different sizes and improving the applicability of the device.
