Abrégé

The present invention is a wood grading apparatus including a robust “push” solenoid as a hammer means for impacting a lumber specimen under test. A conventional solenoid coil with stationary magnetic iron pole pieces is combined with a bimetallic armature including a magnetic portion and a non-magnetic portion; said armature is of uniform cross section through the solenoid coil. A magnetic steel portion of said armature is fastened to a nonmagnetic steel portion thereof, whereby the magnetic field may act upon the magnetic portion of said armature and drive said nonmagnetic portion in an outward direction whereby impact or striking action is achieved. The present invention includes said solenoid in a wood grading apparatus whereby physical properties of wood are measured in a conveyor line setting and wood grading is affected by combining sonic velocity and density measurements to determine the modulus of elasticity of the wood object. Sonic velocity in the wood specimen is determined either by reverberation frequency or by rolling transducers that detect the leading edge of a stress wave initiated by said hammer means. A weight measurement means including a horizontal-axis roller lug conveyor chain and a leaf-spring suspension with a load cell means provides for improved accuracy in weight measurement for wood density calculation.

The present invention relates to a method for optimising the operation of a gas generator and a gas generator. The gas generator has a housing part (30), at the upper end of which are means (12, 20-22, 20'-22') for supplying fuel to a fuel compartment (14) inside the housing part. The fuel descends by the force of gravity onto a grate (1, 2), at a point above the grate being formed a combustion zone, in connection with which are arranged means (4, 5) for supplying gasification gas to it. In the method is used a grate (1, 2) comprised of two concentrically arranged first (1) and second (2) grate parts, of which grate parts at least one grate part (2) can be turned around an axis of rotation passing through a joint centre. The grate parts (1, 2) can be moved in the direction of the said axis of rotation towards each other into their mutually interlocking position, and away from each other, into a position partly or completely out of the said interlocking position. The said grate parts (1, 2) are moved with respect to each other and/or jointly to regulate the flow of gases through the grate and/or the removal of ash from the grate and/or to prevent the entry of not completely burnt fuel through the grate.

This improved method of calibrating wood testing machines includes improved test bars, shim and software to direct the operator through the steps of calibration, storing interim results and calculating new calibration factors based on values read when the test bars are placed in the wood testing machine. This method avoids a number of problems in previous methods and apparatus. It properly corrects for changes in deflection in the measurement apparatus and changes in straightness of the test bars. The result is a more stable and reliable calibration that is referenced to precise measurement of the EI product for the test bar.

The invention concerns a vacuum belt conveyor for transferring veneer sheets under a vacuum effect. The conveyor consists of a vacuum box under a vacuum effect, having at least one perforation extending lane-like in the direction of conveyance of the conveyor. Conveying belts are running on both sides of the perforation. The belts are brought into contact with a veneer sheet to be transferred, whereby the veneer sheet and the belts line an underpessurized space, and the sheet is retained in contact with the belts. A lug movable in the direction of the vacuum lane is arranged at the perforation for keeping any jamming debris away.

Abrégé

The invention concerns a method for optimizing the veneer yield in veneer peeling. The contour of the log to be peeled is determined and the peeling axes at the ends of the log are determined by simulating the veneer yield. The desired veneer yield is determined at least as two veneer products having their own grades. These desired veneer products serve as basic values for the optimizing calculation. The maximum grade of the veneer yield is calculated, based on the dimensions and grades of the veneer products, as well as by iterating the places of the peeling axes and simulating the peeling process. When the peeling axes of the log ends giving the maximum grade yield have been found, the log is placed according to these peeling axes in the lathe and peeled into a veneer web to be cut with a clipper into said desired veneer products.

Abrégé

The invention concerns a method for peeling veneer from a log, wherein the centring device is automatically calibrated during the peeling process without interrupting the production. Used methods of prior art require the production to be interrupted during the calibration. In the method in accordance with the invention, the contour of the log is defined by means of techniques of prior art in the centring device by measuring the distance between the surface of the log and the rotation axis at several points along the length of the log, and the rotation centres of the ends of the log are set to the spindles of the lathe in accordance with this determination of contour. The validity of the centring is controlled by measuring the peeling yield while the log is positioned to the spindles of the lather in accordance with the data received from the centring device. The positioning of the rotation centres is continuously calibrated based on the control of the peeling yield, without interrupting the production.
