APPARATUS FOR REMOVING BARKS FROM A WOOD- AND BARK-CONTAINING LOG FLOW

摘要

The invention relates to an apparatus for removing barks from a wood- and bark-containing log flow to be fed into the apparatus. The apparatus includes a number of bark separation units, each of said bark separation units comprising an aggregate of a toothed disc (3) mounted on a disc shaft (1) and a smooth-surface disc (4) mounted on a second disc shaft (2). The disc shafts (1, 2) are set crosswise relative to a feeding direction A applied to the log flow by the toothed disc (3) upon the rotation thereof and at a distance from each other. The toothed disc (3) and the substantially smooth-surface disc (4) of a bark separation unit are set in a staggered fashion relative to each other in the axial direction of the disc shafts (1, 2).
