Abstract: Apparatus for delimbing and barking trees or tree parts comprising a downwardly tapering trough for receiving the trees or tree parts, the trough having a generally horizontal axis and having one side formed by an upwardly and outwardly inclined endless conveyor which includes drivers projecting therefrom for circulating the trees or tree parts in the trough and for transporting wood upwardly; at least one elongated delimbing roll arranged parallel to the axis of the trough at the bottom thereof, the roll being adjacent the lower end of the conveyor and rotatable in a direction such that its upper surface rotates toward the conveyor; and at least one elongated barking roll arranged in side-by-side parallel relationship to the delimbing roll on the side thereof opposite the conveyor and rotatable in a direction such that its uper surface rotates toward the delimbing roll, the barking roll having longitudinally extending planar peripheral ribs for orienting the stems of the trees or tree parts into parallelism

Abstract: A hydraulic load-sensing device disposed between a load carrying device in the form of a lifting hook and a hoist in the form of a crane jib includes a single-acting hydraulic piston and cylinder unit, the cylinder component being connected to the hoist jib and the piston component being connected to the lifting hook in such manner that as the hoist jib is raised in order to raise the load carried by the hook, a corresponding pressure is exerted on the hydraulic medium between the piston and the lower end of the cylinder and this pressure is transmitted from the cylinder through a line to a pressure gage which measures and exhibits the combined dead weight of the hook and its load.
