ABSTRACT:
A pallet notching device for notching assembled pallets including a frame having a motive force device connected to the frame for driving a pair of vertically oriented rotating drive shafts and a blade assembly removably attachable to each shaft for rotation in a horizontal plane. The device may include an feed conveyor or mechanism for automatically feeding assembled pallets through the rotating cutter heads and directing and conveying the notched pallets away from the notch cutting heads. Each rotating cutter assembly may include a plurality of blades each having a generally circular configuration and a plurality of cutting teeth mounted about the periphery of the blade. The plurality of blades are mounted on a vertical spindle and driven by a motor. The plurality of blades may be configured so that the diameter of the top several blades each have a decreasing diameter and a radiused profile. This configuration provides a rounded corner for the notch.
