The invention relates to a strip-making machine for bamboo core barrel with precise center-aligned cutting which includes a control cabinet. A rotating tray is arranged on a side of the control cabinet. A conveyor belt and a bamboo breaking device are mounted on the control cabinet. The conveyor belt is connected between the rotating tray and the bamboo breaking device. The bamboo breaking device is provided with a vertically placed material tube. A cone-shaped blade adapter is installed below the inside of the material tube. A plurality of circumferentially distributed blades are mounted on the outer wall of the blade adapter. The bamboo breaking device further includes a double-stroke hydraulic cylinder disposed above the material tube. The top of the piston rod of the double-stroke hydraulic cylinder is equipped with a pressure block. The pressure block can be driven into the inside of the material tube by the double-stroke hydraulic cylinder. In the present invention, the bamboo core barrel is cut into a plurality of strip-shaped materials with equal arc length by a plurality of blades distributed along the circumference of the blade adapter. It can greatly reduce the amount of waste generated during subsequent processing and reduce the production cost.

A wedge holder system and kit and method for splitting a log having a polymer foam block member with a concave top surface forming a basin with raised left and right longitudinal sides paralleling a center axis, the top surface designed to conform to a rounded side of a log. A planar bottom surface of the block member is designed to rest on a log cross section. At least one slot portion through the foam block member is designed to hold an at least one metal wedge member vertically to drive the metal wedge into a log. At least one V-shaped notch portion for holding wood vertically may be disposed within at least one exterior longitudinal side portion of the polymer foam block member. Polymer foam block members may be adjacent or coupled lengthwise or vertically.

A log splitter includes a frame, one or more wheels for supporting the frame, and a tongue extending from the frame and including a hitch assembly. A hydraulic control system includes a hydraulic pump and a control valve. The log splitter includes an electric motor operably coupled to the hydraulic pump, and a cutter mechanism configured to perform a cutting operation. The cutter mechanism is operably controlled by the hydraulic control system to move between a retracted position and a cutting position. A power module includes a battery electrically coupled to the electric motor. A movement of the cutter mechanism between the retracted position and cutting position is operably driven by the electric motor.

There is disclosed a system and methods of use for quickly and efficiently excavating, cross-cutting, splitting, and loading or stockpiling tree stumpage and other tree or organic materials, as well as for performing ground cleanup operations. One embodiment provides a stump harvester for attachment to a distal end of an excavator arm. The stump harvester may include front and back jaw assemblies configured to pivot between open and closed positions. The back jaw assembly may include a knife arm having a cutting blade that extends along a majority of a front side of the knife arm. A centerline plane may bisect a cutting edge of the blade. The front jaw assembly may include a planar-aligned dual anvil configured to sheath the cutting edge of the blade when the front and the back jaw assemblies move into the closed position. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Provided is a lift table apparatus for log splitting. The lift table apparatus includes a lift frame, a lock pin, a control lever, and a cable. The lift frame is configured to be attached to a beam and a hydraulic cylinder of a log splitter. The lift frame is movable from a vertical position to a horizontal position by the hydraulic cylinder when the hydraulic cylinder is retracted. The lock pin is configured to be attached to the beam and locks the lift frame in the horizontal position. The control lever is configured to be attached to a hydraulic flow control valve of the log splitter. The cable is connected to the lock pin and the control lever. When the control lever is pulled out, the cable pulls the lock pin out to enable the lift frame to be released from the horizontal position and moved to the vertical position.
