ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for separating logs singularly or in a single layer to down- stream processing equipment such as a debarker. The apparatus includes an oscillating drum segment which has a log pocket thereon. The log pocket is initially located adjacent the log bundle and as oscillation of the apparatus begins, the notch collects a log and transports it to a second position wherein the gravity discharge of the log to a point downstream occurs. The drum segment is then rotated in the opposite direction to its initial position and the procedure repeated. Bars are provided which fit within guide pockets in the drum. Bars fit within guide pockets in the drum. The upper surface of the bars act as a receiving ramp for the log as it is discharged from the drum. In the preferred embodiment, the drum segment can be adjusted radially thereby varying the capacity of the log pocket.
