Abstract: A canter chipper head having a base member machine shaped from a unitary block of metal and having a truncated conical outer face terminating in an end face and at least two chip discharge though passages. There are a pair of cutter units mounted in respective ones of a pair of recesses adjacent each chip discharge opening. The recesses and outline of the cutter units match and are machined to a close tolerance fit to positively locate the cutter units on the base member. Each cutter unit has a cutting knife clamped between a pair of plates and each plate is secured to the base member with a threaded stud.

Abstract: A moving slat conveyor in which the slats are reciprocally mounted on cross beams and wherein the slats are provided with depressed areas above the respective beams so that the slats fall and rise during their reciprocal movement. All of the slats are moved in unison to carry the goods thereon to an advanced position and in sequence groups of slats are retuned to their home position. During the return the slats lower whereby their upper surface is below the plane of the remaining slats that are supporting the goods.
