[0003] Therefore, existing technologies have shortcomings and need to be improved and developed. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This utility model provides a wood-splitting component for a wood splitter, addressing the shortcomings of existing wood splitter technology, such as poor component positioning and insufficient hydraulic system control, which can lead to safety hazards due to component detachment or hydraulic cylinder malfunction during splitting. Furthermore, traditional wood splitters fail to adequately consider the rapid removal of wood chips and fragments during splitting, resulting in chip buildup, jamming, equipment shutdown, and reduced work efficiency. In addition, existing structures are inadequate in terms of support stability and auxiliary sliding mechanisms, failing to adequately meet the requirements for coordinated operation of all components in actual use.

[0005] This utility model embodiment provides a wood splitting component for a wood splitter, including a working beam, a hydraulic cylinder and a bracket mounted on the working beam, a tail plate that curves upwards above the working beam welded to one end of the working beam, a baffle plate that extends above the working beam welded to the other end of the working beam, and a stopper fixed between the tail plate and the baffle plate;

[0011] Furthermore, the bracket includes a first support plate and a second support plate, and the base includes a U-shaped frame and a third support plate. The first support plate is connected to the working beam via the U-shaped frame. One end of the U-shaped frame is bolted to the reinforcing rib, and the other end of the U-shaped frame is welded to the bottom surface of the first support plate. When the bracket is installed on the working beam, the first support plate and the U-shaped frame form a gap for the slider to slide.

[0016] Furthermore, the surface of the baffle used to support the wood is defined as the blocking surface, and a wedge-shaped block protrudes outward from the blocking surface.

[0017] Beneficial effects:

[0018] As can be seen from the above technical solutions, this utility model provides a wood-splitting component for a wood splitter.

[0019] 1. Improved safety performance

[0020] Tail plates and baffles at both ends of the working beam are welded together to form a robust foundation structure. These baffles ensure that the hydraulic cylinder will not shift due to mechanical impact or vibration during operation. The multi-layered working beam structure, consisting of the first flat beam, second flat beam, main beam, and reinforcing ribs, effectively disperses the impact force transmitted during chopping, reducing local overload and stress concentration, and minimizing safety hazards caused by component deformation. A closed hydraulic transmission system is formed between the hydraulic cylinder and the reversing valve, ensuring accurate linear motion at the piston end. Reliable power transmission is achieved through a fixed connection with the back of the chopping blade. The sliding fit of the slider within the guide rail and the lubrication layer reduce overall system friction resistance, ensuring stability and repeatability when the hydraulic cylinder thrust is transmitted to the chopping blade, thus meeting the safety requirements for continuous and efficient operation of the equipment.

[0021] 2. Improved operational stability and work efficiency

[0022] The slider employs a composite structure design consisting of first, second, and third flat plates, ensuring the chopping blade moves smoothly and linearly along a predetermined trajectory during actual operation. Combined with pre-set openings and guide baffles on the working beam, a fixed motion groove is formed, ensuring tight cooperation between components during high-speed wood chopping, thereby improving system stability. The brackets are symmetrically positioned on both sides, with at least three evenly spaced U-shaped frames installed to effectively distribute the working load, ensuring stable support for the slider, hydraulic cylinder, and chopping blade under high-load conditions. The continuous guide groove formed by the first support plate and the U-shaped frames not only provides precise guidance for the slider's movement but also ensures coordinated operation of all components during power transmission, further improving overall smoothness and durability.

[0023] 3. Improved ease of maintenance and adjustment.

[0024] All structural components are primarily connected by welding and bolts, ensuring clear boundaries between modules. Maintenance personnel can perform partial disassembly and inspection of each module during testing, effectively reducing downtime. The design of openings, guide grooves, and lubrication layers ensures normal operation while also facilitating easy inspection of surface wear or insufficient lubrication, thus aiding in regular maintenance and repair. The defined height of the bracket and the specific values ​​of the slider relative to the top surface of the working beam allow for precise alignment during installation or adjustment by altering the gaps between components, meeting the operational requirements of different wood types and thicknesses. The combination of layered working beams and reinforcing ribs provides a robust platform for subsequent adjustments while ensuring high overall structural stability even during frequent adjustments.

[0025] 4. Improved debris removal and continuous equipment operation efficiency.

[0026] The perforated and gapped structure in the bracket and support components reduces local weight, promotes internal ventilation and heat dissipation, and minimizes the decrease in lubrication efficiency caused by temperature concentration, thereby further ensuring the stability of debris removal. The integrated design of the hydraulic cylinder, slider, and stop effectively mitigates the impact force and debris flow generated during wood splitting. Pre-set gaps and guiding functions between structures ensure the equipment remains clean and unobstructed during continuous operation, preventing blockages caused by debris and ensuring stable operation over extended periods.

[0037] Existing wood splitters suffer from poor component positioning and inadequate hydraulic system control during wood splitting, potentially leading to safety hazards due to component detachment or hydraulic cylinder malfunction. Furthermore, traditional wood splitters fail to adequately address the rapid removal of wood chips and fragments during splitting, resulting in chip buildup, jamming, machine downtime, and reduced efficiency. Additionally, existing structures lack robust support stability and adequate auxiliary sliding mechanisms, failing to adequately meet the requirements for coordinated operation of all machine components in practical applications.

[0038] Therefore, this utility model embodiment provides a wood-splitting component for a wood splitter, referring to... Figures 1-3 It includes a working beam, a hydraulic cylinder 1 and a bracket mounted on the working beam, a tail plate 2 that curves upwards above the working beam welded to one end of the working beam, a baffle 3 that is higher than the working beam welded to the other end of the working beam, and a stop 4 fixed between the tail plate 2 and the baffle 3.

[0039] The stop 4 is detachably connected to the upper surface of the working beam. A slider is slidably connected to the working beam, and the bottom of the chopping knife 5 is fixed on the slider. The stop 4 has an opening that is recessed into the upper surface of the working beam on the side facing the baffle 3. When the slider slides between the opening and the baffle 3, the stop is used to limit the distance that the slider slides towards the tail plate 2.

[0040] Hydraulic cylinder 1 is located between tail plate 2 and stop 4. The bottom of hydraulic cylinder 1 is bolted to tail plate 2. The piston end of hydraulic cylinder 1 is detachably connected to the back of the chopping knife 5. The chamber of hydraulic cylinder 1 is connected to a reversing valve 6.

[0041] In some embodiments, a back plate is welded to the back of the blade, and a Y-shaped bracket is welded to the side of the back plate facing the tail plate 2. The top of the Y-shaped bracket is a U-shaped groove, and a screw facing the tail plate 2 is fixed in the center of the groove. Threaded holes are opened on the left and right walls of the U-shaped groove. The piston end of the hydraulic cylinder 1 is threaded to the screw, and can also be connected to the left wall of the U-shaped groove, the piston end, and the right wall of the U-shaped groove in sequence by other screws to fix the piston end, thereby limiting the stroke of the piston end and protecting the hydraulic cylinder.

[0042] Hydraulic cylinder 1 is mounted on tail plate 2 and fixed by bolts connected to tail plate 2. Its piston end is directly connected to the back of the splitting blade 5. Each chamber of hydraulic cylinder 1 is connected to different output ports of reversing valve 6 via hoses, allowing the hydraulic fluid to circulate within the chambers according to work requirements, driving the piston back and forth. This structure utilizes the principle of hydraulic transmission to achieve a smooth conversion of mechanical force, ensuring that the splitting blade 5 moves along a predetermined trajectory when driven by hydraulic oil, thereby achieving the function of splitting wood. Hydraulic cylinder 1 has two working chambers, each connected to an output port of reversing valve 6. When the operator adjusts reversing valve 6, the valve core inside reversing valve 6 moves, thereby guiding the hydraulic fluid to one side of hydraulic cylinder 1. For example, hydraulic cylinder 1 has working chambers C and D. When hydraulic fluid enters chamber C, it causes the piston inside hydraulic cylinder 1 to move in the corresponding direction, assuming it pushes the piston rod out, while the hydraulic fluid in chamber D is simultaneously returned to the oil tank of the wood splitter through the return oil channel of reversing valve 6. When the oil enters chamber D, the piston moves in the opposite direction to achieve the recovery action, while the oil in chamber C flows to the return port. The reversing valve 6 is also equipped with a return port, which sends the returned oil back to the oil tank through the return oil pipe, completing a closed loop.

[0043] The bracket is located between the stop 4 and the baffle 3. There are two brackets, located on both sides of the working beam. The base of each bracket is bolted to the working beam. The vertical height of the end of the bracket closest to the working beam from the top surface of the working beam is defined as A, and the vertical height of the top of the slider from the top surface of the working beam is defined as B, where A > B, and A and B are positive numbers greater than 0.

[0044] A stop 4 is fixed on the first flat beam 7. The bottom of the stop 4, near the tail plate 2, is bolted to the working beam. An opening is designed at the bottom of the stop 4 near the baffle 3, facing the baffle 3. When the slider slides, the longest sliding distance is the distance between the end of the opening and the baffle 3, ensuring the slider's movement does not exceed the stop 4, thus limiting the slider's movement. This combination not only achieves precise positioning between mechanical parts but also ensures that the gaps and relative heights between components meet design requirements by pre-setting parameters A and B, allowing the slider to slide and cut wood at the required position, achieving both force balance and motion accuracy. By designing the A and B data, a gap exists between the bracket and the working beam, allowing the slider to slide smoothly. Furthermore, when the wood is chopped by the splitter 5, some wood chips fall through the gap, preventing obstruction of the wood and improving wood-chopping efficiency.

[0045] In some embodiments, reference is made to Figures 1-2 The working beam includes a first flat beam 7, a second flat beam 8 and a main beam 9. The first flat beam 7 is higher than the second flat beam 8, and the first flat beam 7 and the second flat beam 8 are parallel to each other. The main beam 9 is welded between the first flat beam 7 and the second flat beam 8.

[0046] The working beam adopts a modular structure, including a first flat beam 7, a second flat beam 8, and a main beam 9. The first flat beam 7 and the second flat beam 8 are arranged parallel to each other, and the main beam 9 is welded between these two flat beams to form an integral load-bearing platform. An upward-curving tail plate 2 is welded to one end of the working beam near the foot support, providing a reference and guide for the bottom installation of the hydraulic cylinder 1; the other end is welded with a baffle 3 that extends above the top surface of the first flat beam 7 to support or guide the timber during operation. This modular structure, through multi-layered cooperation, not only has high rigidity in terms of load-bearing capacity but also provides precise positional references and fixed support for the installation of subsequent components such as the hydraulic cylinder 1 and the splitting blade 5.

[0047] In some embodiments, reinforcing ribs 10 are welded to the main beam 9. The top of the reinforcing rib 10 is welded to the bottom surface of the first flat beam 7, and the bottom of the reinforcing rib 10 is welded to the top surface of the second flat beam 8. By distributing the reinforcing ribs 10, the stress generated inside the working beam is evenly transferred, avoiding the phenomenon of local stress concentration.

[0048] In some embodiments, the bracket includes a first support plate 11 and a second support plate 12, and the base includes a U-shaped frame 13 and a third support plate 14. The first support plate 11 is connected to the working beam through the U-shaped frame 13. One end of the U-shaped frame 13 is bolted to the reinforcing rib 10, and the other end of the U-shaped frame 13 is welded to the bottom surface of the first support plate 11. When the bracket is installed on the working beam, the first support plate 11 and the U-shaped frame 13 are used to form a gap for the slider to slide. The first support plate 11 located at both ends of the working beam is used to form a recessed area for placing wood. The side of the first support plate 11 away from the working beam is bolted to the second support plate 12. The bottom surface of the second support plate 12 is bolted to one end of the third support plate 14. The other end of the third support plate 14 is bolted to the first bending surface of the bending member 15. The second bending surface of the bending member 15 is bolted to the main beam 9. The angle between the first bending surface and the second bending surface is 90°.

[0049] The first support plate 11 and the first flat beam 7 form an angle to create a recessed space for receiving timber. The first support plate 11, the second support plate 12, and the third support plate 14 all have a certain thickness, allowing them to be bolted together. The bracket is independent of the working beam, and the resulting gap allows for the removal of debris during the reciprocating motion of the splitting blade 5, preventing jamming and equipment downtime. This effectively improves the timber splitting rate and enhances user convenience. The overall structure is simple and practical.

[0050] In some embodiments, at least three U-shaped frames 13 are connected to the bottom surface of the first support plate 11, with the same spacing between adjacent U-shaped frames 13. The multiple and evenly distributed U-shaped frames 13 can make the overall support surface uniformly stressed, reduce the load pressure of a single support point, and form a continuous and stable guide groove in the working area of ​​the slider, ensuring a reasonable load distribution during the wood splitting process and improving the overall working stability.

[0051] In some embodiments, the second support plate 12 has openings that penetrate the support plate. When the bracket bears the weight of the wood, the opening structure can reduce the weight of the bracket and can also be used for ventilation and chip removal. By reducing local weight through the opening design, and improving stress distribution by utilizing the opening, the problem of local stress concentration caused by wood loading is alleviated to some extent.

[0052] In some embodiments, reference is made to Figure 3The slider includes a first plate 16, a second plate 17, and a third plate 18. The chopping knife 5 is fixed to the top surface of the first plate 16. The first plate 16 and the third plate 18 are parallel. There are two second plates 17, both sandwiched between the first plate 16 and the third plate 18. The thickness of the second plate 17 is greater than the thickness of the first flat beam 7. The first flat beam 7 is sandwiched between the two second plates 17. The top surface of the second plate 17 is flush with the top surface of the first flat beam 7. The distance between the two second plates 17 is greater than the width of the first flat beam 7.

[0053] The slider structure is designed such that the two second flat plates 17 can be respectively positioned to clamp the two ends of the gap between the first flat plate 16 and the third flat plate 18. Bolts are then passed through the first flat plate 16, the second flat plate 17, and the third flat plate 18 to ensure the secure installation of the chopping blade 5. Simultaneously, the multi-layer flat plate combination design optimizes the stress state and the stability of the motion trajectory. The multi-plate combination utilizes the principle of distributed load to evenly transmit external forces to each layer of plates; setting the plate spacing and thickness ensures smooth slider sliding.

[0054] In some embodiments, the surfaces of the first plate 16, the second plate 17, and the third plate 18 facing the first flat beam 7 are all covered with a lubricating layer. The lubricating layer is designed to reduce the frictional resistance between the slider and the first flat beam 7, slow down the wear rate, and ensure the smoothness and positioning accuracy of the cleaver 5 during sliding motion.

[0055] In some embodiments, the surface of the baffle 3 used to receive the wood is defined as the blocking surface, and a wedge-shaped block protrudes outward from the blocking surface. The wedge-shaped block faces the wood, and when the wood is placed, the wedge-shaped block can fix the wood and also assist in splitting the wood, which not only improves the accuracy of wood positioning, but also improves the efficiency of wood splitting.

[0056] The working principle of this design is as follows: The wood-splitting assembly is mounted on a frame containing an oil tank, generator, and gear pump. Initially, the oil tank contains hydraulic oil, and the gear pump is in standby mode. The reversing valve 6 is in the neutral or locked position. When wood is placed on the support for splitting, the gear pump is started. The engine drives the gear pump, which begins to draw oil from the oil tank and delivers the pressurized oil through the inlet of the reversing valve 6. When the operator operates the reversing valve 6, the single-handle operating valve moves the valve core, changing the oil circuit. For example, high-pressure oil is distributed to chamber C of hydraulic cylinder 1. As the oil pressure in chamber C rises, the piston is pushed to move in the corresponding direction, such as extending the piston rod. During the piston's movement, the oil in chamber D is forced to flow, first returning to the reversing valve 6, and then returning to the oil tank through the return port of the reversing valve 6, ensuring the continuity of the overall oil circuit. The operator can then change the position of the reversing valve 6 again, causing the oil to flow to the opposite chamber, thus reversing the piston's movement. The entire process is repeated continuously until the wood is completely split.

[0057] In summary, the wood-splitting component for a wood splitter provided by this utility model has the following advantages: 1. Improved safety performance: The tail plate 2 and baffle 3, respectively installed at both ends of the working beam, form a relatively solid foundation structure through welding. The baffle 4 ensures that the hydraulic cylinder 1 will not be displaced due to mechanical impact or vibration during operation. The multi-layered working beam structure, consisting of the first flat beam 7, the second flat beam 8, the main beam 9, and the reinforcing rib 10, has a high dispersion capability for the impact force transmitted during splitting, effectively reducing local overload and stress concentration, and minimizing safety hazards caused by component deformation. A closed hydraulic transmission system is formed between the hydraulic cylinder 1 and the reversing valve 6, ensuring accurate linear motion at the piston end. Simultaneously, reliable power transmission is achieved through a fixed connection with the back of the splitting blade 5. The sliding fit of the slider within the guide rail and the lubrication layer reduce the overall frictional resistance of the system, ensuring the stability and repeatability of the thrust transmitted from the hydraulic cylinder 1 to the splitting blade 5, thereby meeting the safety requirements for continuous and efficient operation of the equipment. 2. Improved operational stability and work efficiency: The slider adopts a composite structure design consisting of first, second, and third flat plates 18, ensuring that the chopping blade 5 moves smoothly and linearly along a predetermined trajectory during actual operation. Combined with pre-set openings on the working beam and the guide of the baffle 3, a fixed motion groove is formed, ensuring that all components maintain close cooperation during high-speed wood chopping, thereby improving system stability. The brackets are symmetrically set on both sides, and at least three evenly spaced U-shaped frames 13 are installed, effectively distributing the working load and ensuring that under high-load operation, each support component stably supports the slider, hydraulic cylinder 1, and chopping blade 5 continuously. The continuous guide groove formed by the first support plate 11 and the U-shaped frame 13 not only provides precise guidance for the slider's movement but also ensures the coordinated work of all components during power transmission during chopping, further improving the overall smoothness and durability. 3. Improved convenience of maintenance and adjustment: All structural components are mainly connected by welding and bolts, making the boundaries between modules clear. Maintenance personnel can perform partial disassembly and inspection of each module during testing, effectively shortening downtime. The design of openings, guide grooves, and lubrication layers ensures normal operation while also making it easy to inspect the surfaces of each component for localized wear or insufficient lubrication, thus facilitating regular maintenance and repair. The defined height of the bracket and the specific values ​​of the slider relative to the top surface of the working beam allow for precise calibration during equipment installation or adjustment by changing the gaps between components, meeting the operational requirements of different wood types and thicknesses. The combined structure of the layered working beam and reinforcing rib 10 provides a good platform for subsequent adjustments and ensures high stability of the overall equipment structure during frequent adjustments. 4. Improved chip removal and continuous operation: The opening and gap structure in the bracket and support components reduces local weight and promotes internal ventilation and heat dissipation, minimizing the decrease in lubrication layer efficiency caused by temperature concentration, thereby further ensuring the stability of chip removal.By integrating the hydraulic cylinder 1, slider, and stop 4 into a single design, the impact force and debris discharge flow generated during wood splitting are effectively mitigated between the various components. Pre-set gaps and guiding functions between the structures ensure that the equipment remains clean and unobstructed during continuous operation, thus avoiding blockages caused by debris and ensuring stable operation over extended periods.
