摘要： A conveyor system incorporating conveyors operating in conjunction for conveying, arranging, positioning and placing boards for feeding boards in an end to end arrangement to a processing station. The system includes a descrambler for feeding boards sequentially in a crosswise orientation onto a lug type conveyor. The lugs of the lug type conveyor conveys the boards through a scanner where the boards are scanned and the data input to a computer. A speed up conveyor cooperates with the lug conveyor to advance the board against a preceding lug of the lug conveyor which restrains the board. A board turner is provided to turn the board over if required. The speed up conveyor conveys the board onto a positioning conveyor and advances the board against a lug which retains the board in a determined position. Positioning pins advance the board onto a longitudinal conveyor which conveys the boards along their longitudinal length. The conveyors are cooperatively arranged to minimize the spacing between boards placed on the longitudinal conveyor.

摘要： The present disclosure provides workpiece feed systems, methods and assemblies comprising one or more tapered feed rolls positioned at an angle to incoming workpieces. The tapered feed rolls may pull individual workpieces toward a guide while gradually accelerating the workpieces and altering their direction of travel. The angle and speed of rotation of the tapered feed rolls may be automatically adjusted to control workpiece speed/acceleration, providing improved gap control and minimizing collisions between successive workpieces. Tapered feed rolls may therefore reduce or eliminate the need for a conventional bridge to decelerate the workpieces after the directional change, reducing the operational space required by a workpiece feed system.

摘要： A lumber piece conveyor including a conveyor chain having retaining lugs and overhead rollers for pressing the lumber pieces on to the retaining lugs. The overhead rollers independently descend and retract as the logs approach the rollers in sequence. The retracted position of each roller is established by the prior roller's position of initial engagement with a log. The retracted position can thus be established at a substantially consistent distance above the point of engagement regardless of the log diameter. Preferably a linkage has one end that is connected to the roller movement of a prior roller assembly and the other end dictates the pivotal positioning of a proximity switch. As the prior roller is moved into engagement, the linkage pivots the proximity switch. The proximity switch signals a computer that the subsequent roller is too high or too low and the roller is accordingly lowered or raised to the desired retracted position.
