Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of logging equipment technology, and in particular relates to a telescopic logging head that facilitates branch removal. Background Technology

[0002] With the progress of the times and the development of science and technology, the application of wood processing is increasing. Wood processing is the processing of wood as raw material, mainly using mechanical or chemical methods. Its products still retain the basic characteristics of wood. In the forestry industry, the wood processing industry and the chemical processing of forest products are both downstream industries of forest harvesting and transportation, and are important sectors for the comprehensive utilization of wood resources.

[0003] Currently, in the process of felling trees, it is necessary to cut the trunk and remove small branches to facilitate later transportation and processing. The traditional logging method is to cut down trees manually, which is not only inefficient and difficult to operate, but also very dangerous. In addition, existing logging machines are prone to jamming when removing branches from some large and severely bent trees, causing damage to both the trees and the equipment. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problems of traditional logging methods, which rely on manual felling, resulting in low work efficiency, difficult felling operations, and significant dangers. Furthermore, existing logging machines are prone to jamming when removing branches from large and severely bent trees, causing damage to both the trees and the equipment. This invention provides a telescopic logging head that facilitates branch removal.

[0005] The present invention achieves the above-mentioned objective through the following technical solution: including a branch removal end, a cutting end provided below the branch removal end, and the branch removal end and the cutting end being connected by a telescopic sliding device;

[0006] Except for the branch end, there is a first mounting base plate. On one side of the first mounting base plate, from top to bottom, there are a fixed knife holder, a first gripper and a gripping wheel device. The fixed knife holder, the first gripper and the gripping wheel device are all connected to the first mounting plate by welding.

[0007] The cutting end includes a second mounting base plate. A second gripper and a cutting device are arranged sequentially from top to bottom on one side of the second mounting base plate. The second gripper and the cutting device are both connected to the second mounting base plate by welding.

[0008] The telescopic sliding device includes a fixed frame, which is welded to a first mounting base plate. The fixed frame contains longitudinally symmetrical slide rails in an "I" shape, which pass through the bottom of the fixed frame and connect to a second mounting base plate. A reinforcing plate is located between the ends of the two slide rails and on the side of the second mounting plate, and is welded to the second mounting plate. Several rollers are longitudinally arranged between the slide rails and the fixed frame. Several first clamping rollers are longitudinally arranged on the upper surface of the slide rails. Clamping rollers are transversely arranged between the first clamping rollers, and are connected to the fixed frame via rolling bearings. A second clamping roller is located at the junction of the slide rails and the fixed frame. A first hydraulic cylinder is longitudinally arranged in the middle of the fixed frame. A fixing rod is transversely arranged at one end of the first hydraulic cylinder, passing through the fixed frame. The other end of the first hydraulic cylinder passes through the fixed frame and connects to the reinforcing plate.

[0009] Furthermore, the edge of the fixed blade holder has a protrusion, which can be used to initially remove branches.

[0010] Furthermore, the first gripper includes a first connecting plate, a second connecting plate below the first connecting plate, and a fixing rod between both ends of the first and second connecting plates. An arc-shaped gripper is provided on the outer diameter surface of each of the two fixing rods, and a blade is provided on the inner side of the arc-shaped gripper. The arc-shaped gripper is connected to the fixing rod via a rolling bearing. A second hydraulic cylinder is provided between one end of each arc-shaped gripper and the fixing rod. One end of the second hydraulic cylinder is rotatably connected to the arc-shaped gripper, and the other end is rotatably connected to the fixing rod. The first and second connecting plates are welded to the mounting base plate. The first and second grippers have the same structure and can further remove branches from the tree trunk.

[0011] Furthermore, the clamping device includes a third connecting plate located below the second connecting plate. A fixing rod passes through the second connecting plate and extends to the third connecting plate. Symmetrically arranged double-layered arc-shaped grips are provided between the two ends of the third and second connecting plates. Each double-layered arc-shaped grip contains several rollers, which are connected to the double-layered arc-shaped grips via roller shafts. The double-layered arc-shaped grips are rotatably connected to the fixing rod. A connecting shaft is provided between one end of each of the two double-layered arc-shaped grips. A third hydraulic cylinder is provided between the two connecting shafts, with both ends of the third hydraulic cylinder rotatably connected to the two connecting shafts respectively. A synchronous connecting rod is provided between the upper surfaces of the two double-layered arc-shaped grips, which can guide and lock the tree in place.

[0012] Furthermore, the cutting device includes a saw box, with a cutting motor located at one end of the saw box. The cutting motor drive shaft passes through the saw box, and a cutting saw is located inside the saw box. The cutting saw and the cutting motor are connected via the drive shaft. A first fixed shaft is located on the lower surface of the cutting saw end, and a second fixed shaft is located on the lower surface inside the saw box. A fourth hydraulic cylinder is located between the first and second fixed shafts. One end of the fourth hydraulic cylinder is rotatably connected to the first fixed shaft, and the other end of the fourth hydraulic cylinder is rotatably connected to the second fixed shaft, which facilitates the cutting of tree trunks.

[0013] Furthermore, the inner side of the arc-shaped gripper on the second gripper is equipped with anti-slip teeth, which can improve the gripping force of the second gripper on the tree trunk.

[0014] Furthermore, the upper surfaces of the first, second, and third connecting plates are all equipped with dust covers to prevent tree debris from entering the device and affecting its operation.

[0015] Furthermore, the synchronous linkage includes a first linkage, with a second linkage at both ends of the first linkage. One end of the second linkage is rotatably connected to a fixed rod, and the other end of the second linkage is rotatably connected to a connecting shaft. Both ends of the first linkage are rotatably connected to the second linkage, which can play a role in synchronizing the movement of the clamping wheel device, so that the clamping wheel can clamp the tree trunk tightly.

[0016] Beneficial effects: This invention has a reasonable design, simple and stable structure, and strong practicality. The first and second grippers can open and close via the action of the second hydraulic cylinder. The gripping wheel device can also open and close synchronously via the action of the third hydraulic cylinder and the synchronous connecting rod. This allows the tree trunk to be gripped first. At this time, the cutting motor drives the cutting saw to cut off the bottom of the trunk, allowing the trunk to be lifted up. The second gripper is equipped with anti-slip teeth to firmly hold the trunk. At this time, the first hydraulic cylinder pushes the branch removal end upward, and the blades on the fixed blade holder and the first gripper can remove branches from the trunk. The gripping wheel device plays a guiding and rolling role. After the branch removal is completed, the first hydraulic cylinder retracts, and through the cooperation of the slide rail, rollers, first clamping wheel, second clamping wheel, and clamping roller, the cutting end is precisely pulled up. At this time, the cutting saw is ejected by the action of the fourth hydraulic cylinder, cutting off the branched tree trunk. This process is repeated until the entire trunk is removed. This not only saves manual felling and reduces labor costs, but also improves work efficiency. Moreover, this invention removes branches by pulling the trunk, so it can effectively remove branches from thicker or larger trunks. The branch removal is smooth, protecting the trees and equipment, and improving the safety of operators. Attached Figure Description
