Sumario: | Heating by solid fuels, and especially fire wood, belongs to the most asked and requested types of heating in cottages. One of the main problems of heating is wood splitting as a fi rst operation. A very useful tool for splitting of wood material is a log splitter. This contribution is focused on how to apply a screw type log splitter in wood splitting. A set of experiments have been realized to get an appropriate shape of the splitting cone, which will provide an improved splitting action. The cone has been manufactured on the basis of the experimental results. The experimental apparatus has been developed to determine the validity of the splitting cone and its geometry design. |
