Abstract: The invention pertains to a device and procedure to regulate the bale length in a square baler. Sensors determine both the forward and backward movement of the crop bundle and transfer these measurements to an evaluation electronic. The evaluation electronic adds the measurements and triggers the tying process when the actual length value is reached. The procedure includes the steps of: sensing both the forward and backward movement of a crop bundle in a baling chamber; adding the measured forward and backward movements to determine an actual length value of the crop bundle; and triggering the tying device once a pre-set target actual length value is reached.

Abstract: A wide pickup header on the baler picks up windrows that are signficantly wider than the centrally disposed inlet of a passage containing cutter apparatus that reduces the materials into smaller pieces for compaction into a bale. In order to provide smooth, even, continuous flow of crop materials into and through the cutter apparatus at the inlet, the pickup is provided with a pair of lower, upturning stub augers on opposite sides of the inlet and a full length, downturning top auger spaced above and somewhat forwardly of the stub augers. The top auger not only assists the stub augers in consolidating the wide windrow of materials in toward the center of the machine but also keeps the stream fairly low and concentrated at a level where the stream is readily accepted by the rotary cutter apparatus. Preferably, the top auger maintains the inflowing crop stream below the axis of rotation of the cutter rotor so that prongs of the rotor engage the crop material as the prongs are rotating downwardly and rearwardly through the inlet and into the cutting zone. Preferably, the top auger rotates considerably faster than the stub augers and consolidates materials at a faster rate than the stub augers.

Abstract translation: 打包机上的一个较大的拾取器头部拾取了比包含切割装置的通道的中心设置的入口明显更宽的铺放物，该入口将材料减小成较小的块以便压实成捆包。 为了在进口处提供平滑，均匀，连续的作物材料流入和通过切割装置，拾取器在入口的相对侧上设置有一对下部向上翻转的短嘴螺旋钻，以及全长，下降的顶部螺旋钻 在短截线螺旋钻上方和稍微向前的位置。 顶部螺旋钻不仅有助于短棒螺旋钻将材料的宽料料整合到机器的中心，而且还将流体保持在相当低的水平并集中在旋转切割装置容易接受的水平。 优选地，顶部螺旋推运器将流入的作物流保持在​​切割器转子的旋转轴线下方，使得当叉头向下并向后旋转通过入口并进入切割区域时，转子的尖头与作物材料接合。 优选地，顶部螺旋推运器比短截线螺旋钻快速旋转，并以比短棒螺旋钻更快的速度固定材料。

Abstract: A round baler has strategically located deflecting surfaces in the intake region of the machine to direct incoming crop materials away from sidewalls of the baler. In a preferred embodiment, the materials are directed away from clearance gaps between the outer edges of forming belts and the sidewalls of the baler. Each deflecting surface may be part of a deflector in the nature of a hollow wedge with an upright, angled-in deflecting surface, an upright rear wall, and a horizontal, triangular top wall. A fastening bolt may attach the deflector to the sidewall.

Abstract: A baling chamber for a large round baler includes a discharge gate having opposite side walls which meet respective side walls of the main frame along a line of separation that inclines downwardly and to the rear from top to bottom. The bottom of the baling chamber is defined in part by a bottom conveyor which slopes downward to the rear from a front end which delimits a lower side of an inlet through which crop is fed into the baling chamber. The discharge gate carries a lower front roll that supports an endless tension element arrangement and that is itself supported on a tensioning arm arrangement that pivoted to the discharge gate for movement against the resistance of a yieldable spring arrangement so as to permit the lower front roll to move rearwardly from a first position adjacent the inlet, which it occupies at the beginning of bale formation, as the bale grows.

Abstract: A square baler has a generally horizontally disposed baling chamber, a reciprocating plunger within the chamber, and an underslung loading duct projecting downwardly and forwardly from the bottom of the chamber to a pickup apparatus. A stuffer is operable through successive stuffing strokes within the duct to both transfer material from the pickup apparatus into the baling chamber and precompress the material within the duct. The stuffer includes a pair of fore-and-aft mutually spaced apart forks presenting a leading fork and a trailing fork with respect to the direction of travel of the stuffer during a stuffing stroke. The leading fork has a generally kidney-shaped path of travel that begins its upstroke rearwardly of the forwardly facing inlet of the duct, while the trailing fork has a generally kidney-shaped path of travel that begins its upstroke forwardly of the inlet of the duct. The stuffer is operable in timed relationship with the plunger so that the leading fork precompresses a charge of material against the bottom of the plunger as it is retracting and then stuffs the precompressed charge into the chamber when the plunger is sufficiently retracted. The trailing fork, on the other hand, sweeps new material into the inlet of the duct and advances it up to the bottom of the plunger path of travel as the leading fork carries out and completes its stuffing stroke. The trailing fork is narrower than the leading fork, providing room for center-gathering stub augers to deliver materials from the pickup to an inboard position generally under the center prongs of the trailing fork.

Abstract translation: 方形打捆机具有大致水平设置的打包室，腔室内的往复式柱塞，以及从室底部向下并向前突出到拾取装置的下伏装载管道。 填充器可通过管道内的连续填充冲程来操作，以将材料从拾取装置转移到打包室中并预先压缩管道内的材料。 填充件包括一对前后相互间隔开的叉，在填充冲程期间相对于填充件的行进方向呈现出前叉和后叉。 前叉具有通常为肾形的行进路径，其开始于向前朝向管道前方的入口的上行程，而后叉具有大致为肾形的行进路径，其开始向管道入口向前行进 。 填料可以与柱塞定时关系地操作，使得当柱塞被收回时，前叉在预先压缩柱塞的底部时预先压缩材料，然后当柱塞充分缩回时将预压的填料填充到室中。 另一方面，后叉将新材料扫入管道的入口，并且当前叉进行并将其填充行程完成时，将其推进到行程的柱塞路径的底部。 后叉比前叉窄，提供了用于中心收集螺母的空间，用于将物料从拾取器传送到通常位于后叉的中心叉下方的内侧位置。

Abstract: A round baler for forming round bales of crop material includes a crop pickup which feeds crop material rearwardly toward a bale-forming chamber defined by a series of rollers in combination with a bale-forming section of a series of side-by-side baler belts. The series of rollers include front and rear floor rollers which rotate in the same direction, as well as an upper stripping roller and a powered feed roller. The powered feed roller cooperates with the front floor roller to define a crop inlet, and the feed roller and the front floor roller aggressively feed crop material into the bale-forming chamber. The front and rear floor rollers cooperate with the bale-forming section of the baler belts and the upper stripping roller to define an open initial bale-forming chamber. As the bale grows, the bale-forming section of the belts expands and the bale is supported by the rear floor roller without support from the front floor roller. The stripping roller is maintained in engagement with the bale, and strips crop material off of the baler belts downstream of the bale-forming section of the belts. The powered feed roller is mounted between a pair of pivotable arms which provide movement of the powered feed roller toward and away from the front floor roller in an arcuate path, to accommodate increases in thickness of the crop material supplied to the crop inlet. A spring is interconnected with the powered feed roller for biasing the powered feed roller toward a normal operating position, to maintain the powered feed roller in engagement with the crop material as the powered feed roller is moved toward and away from the front floor roller and to maintain the aggressive feeding action provided by the front floor roller and the powered feed roller. The arms may be pivotable about a pivot axis coincident with the axis of rotation of the stripping roller, so as to facilitate mounting and driving of the powered feed roller.
