ABSTRACT:
The disclosure describes an apparatus, known in the lumber industry as a board or cant feeder, used to separate and move laterally, one by one, pieces of lumber having at least two parallel sawn or cut faces. These pieces are first brought side by side, in a single layer, to the apparatus by means of multiple carrying chains which move them transversally. They are then individually picked up on the upstream side of the apparatus by a grapple type mechanism mounted on a rotating element which delivers them singularly on its downstream side, by means of acceleration chains, to a group of receiving chains equipped with lugs, thus providing a controlled uniform feed to a lumber manufacturing process.
