ABSTRACT:
A log splitter for longitudinally splitting a log comprises a support for supporting the log to be split. A double angled wedge structure is located at one end of the support to engage one end of the log and a ram is located to engage the other end of the log. A hydraulic means moves the ram to force the one end of the log against the double angled wedge structure. The double angled wedge structure comprises a pair of plates extending transverse to the direction of movement of the ram, each of said pair of plates having first portions which converge at one angle as they extend toward the one end of the log and second portions which converge at another lesser angle as they extend toward the one end of the log from said first portions.
