<p>A timber rotator intended for a log carriage operative to feed timber workpieces through a sawmill. The timber rotator includes two arms (20, 21) which are provided with means for rotating a timber workpiece and capable of receiving and carrying a workpiece and, when necessary, to rotate the workpiece through a given angle. To this end the arms are fixated at a given, appropriate, angle relative to one another such as to form a substantially L-shaped cradle for accommodating a workpiece. The cradle is pivotally suspended at one upper end of the substantially vertically orientated leg (21). There is also provided a device (23) for swinging the cradle (20, 21) around the suspension point (22) in conjunction with receiving, rotating or laying-off a workpiece (29). <IMAGE></p> |
