ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for rolling newspapers or the like into logs for burning is shown. A foot-operated electric motor is securely mounted on a work surface. Connected to the motor and parallel to the work surface is a rectangular shaft removeably supported on the opposite end thereof. The rectangular shaft has two longitudinally tapered halves slideable along the taper therebetween to reduce the effective cross-sectional diameter of the rectangular shaft. By turning the motor ON and supplying paper to the rectangular shaft, the paper is wrapped and periodically taped into position. After a paper log is formed, a prying device anchored to the work surface slideable moves one of the tapered halves with respect to the other tapered half along the taper therebetween. The movement reduces the cross-sectioned diameter of the rectangular shaft thereby releasing the paper log formed thereon. The paper log is slid to the left and removed from the rectangular shaft as a spring loaded hinge pivots out of the way.
