ABSTRACT:
A device for transferring logs one by one from an inlet side to an outlet side, comprising two pairs of disks, each pair comprising two disks supported on separate parallel shafts to carry out continuous reciprocating rotary movements in opposite directions. Each disk is provided with a peripheral notch which in the extreme positions of the rotary movement of the disks are directed toward said inlet side and said outlet side and in the intermediate position of said rotary movement form a common separating chute. Logs to be separated are fed to the notch of the inlet side disk in its said extreme position. A tilting lever is supported at one end of the shaft of the outlet side disk and connected at the opposite end to the inlet side disk in such a way that said tilting lever is raised in an inclined position into said separating chute in said intermediate position and thereby forces the log or logs positioned in said chute to roll from the notch of the inlet side disk towards the notch of the outlet side disk. The reciprocating rotary movement of said disks raises and lowers said tilting lever automatically without need of separate power means for tilting said lever.
