Abstract: This invention concerns a feed wheel arrangement intended to be used in a timber working head for at least one of felling, trimming, bark-peeling and cutting of a tree or tree trunk, comprising a frame to which feed wheels and grip fittings are mounted either fixed or in a manner that allows them to be removed. The feed wheel arrangement comprises a feed wheel with a power transfer arrangement lowered centrally in a jacket of the feed wheel, a motor arranged at a distance from the feed wheel, and a power transfer arrangement for the transfer of rotational force from the motor to the feed wheel, for the feed of the tree or trunk through the timber working head. The invention concerns also a timber working head, a crane and a timber working machine.

Abstract: An arrangement to capture passively a broken saw chain of a chain saw with a guide bar that is arranged such that it can pivot, including a stationary screen that forms part of a sawing box and that covers a rear part of the saw. In order to achieve an inexpensive and efficient protection there is arranged between an end surface of the screen and the guide bar an energy-absorbing brake member that is sufficiently elastic or flexible to receive the kinetic energy from a broken saw chain, to direct kinetic energy away from the chain and to regain its normal form after it has suffered an impact from and been deformed by the chain.

Abstract: The invention concerns to a method and arrangement for a suspension system that may be constituted by a harvesting trait of a forestry harvester and which suspension system is of the type that has a wheel supported and provided with an angle sensor in order to form a measurement wheel for the measurement of length, with an arm pivotably attached to a frame in such a manner that the wheel can be adjusted from positions in contact with and out of contact with a surface of the object whose length is to be measured while the object is fed in its longitudinal direction past the measurement wheel running against the circumference of the measurement wheel, whereby the said object may be constituted by a tree trunk taken up into a harvester unit.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method and an arrangement for a suspension system that may be, but does not necessarily need to be, constituted by a harvesting unit of a forestry harvester and which suspension system is of the type that has an arm (2) on which a wheel (4) is supported and provided with an angle sensor (4a) in order to form a measurement wheel for the measurement of length, and which arm is attached in a manner that allows it to pivot to a frame (3) in such a manner that the wheel can be adjusted from positions in contact with and out of contact with a surface (5) of the object whose length is to be measured while the object is fed in its longitudinal direction (5a) past the measurement wheel running against the circumference of the measurement wheel, whereby the said object may be, but does not necessarily need to be, constituted by a tree trunk taken up into a harvester unit.
