Abstract: A cutter vehicle is arranged to be moved along a row of trees by a powdered drive vehicle. A boom assembly is secured between the cutter vehicle and the drive vehicle and has relatively movable parts which can extend and retract to vary the longitudinal length of the boom assembly. The cutter vehicle has a powered cutter arranged to cut a tree off adjacent the ground. The mechanism has controls capable of actuating the power cutter substantially simultaneously with release of the power for the boom assembly whereby the movable parts of the boom assembly can have free relative movement to allow the powered drive vehicle to advance while the cutter vehicle has stopped momentarily to cut a tree, this providing an arrangement which allows a drive vehicle to maintain a steady advancing movement even though the cutter vehicle has stopped to cut a tree. The boom assembly has pivot support which provides lateral positioning of the cutter vehicle to bypass a tree if desired. The cutter vehicle has a main frame which supports a vertically adjustable secondary frame having a lowered position for cutting a tree off adjacent the ground and a raised position for movement over the stump.

Abstract translation: 刀具车辆被布置成通过粉状驱动车辆沿着一排树木移动。 悬臂组件固定在切割器车辆和驱动车辆之间，并且具有相对可移动的部件，其可以伸长和缩回以改变吊杆组件的纵向长度。 切割车辆具有动力切割器，其布置成在邻近地面上切割树。 该机构具有能够基本同时致动动力切割机的控制器，同时释放用于悬臂组件的动力，由此，当铲刀车辆暂时停止时，悬臂组件的可移动部件可以具有自由的相对运动，以允许动力传动车辆前进 切割树，这提供了一种布置，其允许驾驶车辆保持稳定的前进运动，即使切割车辆停止切割树。 悬臂组件具有枢转支撑件，如果需要，其提供切割器车辆的横向定位以绕过树。 切割车辆具有主框架，该主框架支撑具有降低位置的可垂直调节的副框架，用于在靠近地面处切割树木，以及用于在树桩上移动的升高位置。

Abstract: A base frame supports pairs of parallel compressing arms having a pivoted depending support on an upper extension. These arms are operated between open and bale forming positions by fluid operated cylinders. An article holding cartridge has upstanding ribs arranged to confine articles therebetween for baling. The ribs are spaced such that upon moving the loaded cartridge into place on a cross conveyor, the compressing arms thread through the ribs and compress the articles. The upper extension has powered lifting and lowering means for operation of the compressing arms in a baling sequence and also to open the arms rearwardly for ejecting the bale. Upper straps are associated with the compressing arms to compress the top portion of the bale, and banding mechanism is supported on the frame for applying bands around the bale. The base frame is supported on a wheeled chassis and has longitudinal adjustment on the chassis for positioning between a rear baling position and a forward road traveling position.

Abstract translation: 基架支撑成对的平行压缩臂，其具有在上延伸部上的枢转的支撑支撑。 这些臂通过流体操作的气缸在打开和打包形成位置之间操作。 物品保持盒具有布置成将物品限制在其间的直立肋条用于打包。 肋间隔开，使得当将装载的盒移动到交叉输送机上的适当位置时，压缩臂螺纹穿过肋并压缩制品。 上部延伸部具有动力提升和降低装置，用于在打包顺序中操作压缩臂，并且还向后打开臂以弹出捆包。 上带与压缩臂相关联以压缩捆包的顶部，并且捆扎机构支撑在框架上以在捆包周围施加条带。 基座支撑在轮式底盘上，并且在底盘上具有纵向调节，用于定位在后打包位置和前进道路行驶位置之间。
