Title: dispositivo mecánico e hidráulico para uniformizar espessura da lámina de madeira em torno desfolhador tipo garras
Inventor: BENECKE KURT EMIL
IPC: B27L5/02
Filed: 2006-05-09
Abstract: DISPOSITIVO MECáNICO E HIDRáULICO PARA UNIFORMIZAR ESPESSURA DA LáMINA DE MADEIRA EM TORNO DESFOLHADOR TIPO GARRAS, sendo que a presente invenção refere-se a um dispositivo que garante a uniformidade de espessura da lâmina de madeira obtida em um torno desfolhador do tipo sem garras ("spindleless"), o qual apresenta rolos móveis acionados que pressionam a tora contra uma faca. Este tipo de torno produz uma variação na espessura da lâmina de madeira durante o processo de desfolhamento, a qual é causada pela variação da pressão específica de corte da madeira em que a tora vai reduzindo de diâmetro ao transformar-se em lâmina. Essa variação de espessura resulta em defeitos de colagem e refugo dos compensados produzidos. A presente invenção tem por objetivo apresentar um dispositivo mecânico, eletro-mecânico ou hidráulico para torno desfolhador do tipo descrito, no qual esta pressão de corte seja compensada de forma proporcional à redução o diâmetro a tora durante o processo de desfolhamento. Em uma de suas formas construtivas, descrita na figura 2, um dispositivo mecânico desloca o rolo contra-faca (23), diminuindo a abertura entre a faca (21) e o rolo contra-faca (23) do início ao final da tora (25), tornando uniforme a espessura da lâmina (22) durante o processo de desfolhamento. O outro dispositivo igualmente eficaz, é lustrado na figura 3, e opera com variação de pressão hidráulica também de forma proporcional, garantindo que a espessura da lâmina (42) não varie desde o início ao final da tora (45) sem que haja a necessidade de reduzir a abertura da faca (41) e o rolo contra-faca (43).
