    摘要: An agricultural bale press, having a press frame, a container device, and a transfer device for transferring the container device from an operating position into a filling position. The bale press has at least a first guide element, which is arranged at one end pivotably about a first frame guide pivot axis on the press frame and at the other end pivotably about a first container guide pivot axis on the container device, and a guide arrangement which is arranged pivotably about a second container guide pivot axis on the container device and includes at least a second guide element which is arranged pivotably about a second frame guide pivot axis on the press frame. The guide arrangement includes at least an intermediate guide element and at least a third guide element.

    摘要: A round baler includes a bale size sensor operable to detect a radial size of a bale during formation thereof, a bale weight sensor operable to detect a weight of a completed bale, and a location sensor operable to determine a respective field origin location of the crop material gathered for each respective one of a plurality of radial layers of the bale. A controller calculates a density of a completed bale with data from the bale weight sensor and the bale size sensor. The controller determines a volume of a respective one of the radial layers during formation of a current bale, subsequent to the completed bale, with data from the bale size sensor. The controller may then estimate a density of the respective one of the radial layers based on the volume of the respective one of the radial layers, and the density of the previously completed bale.

    摘要: A continuous round baler forms a cylindrically-shaped bale by spiral, coiled layers created by a conical portion of a bale-forming chamber and protruded upwardly from a cylindrical portion of the bale-forming chamber. The bale is circumferentially supported by netting applied to the bale in the cylindrical portion. A rotary feed table receives crop from the field and feeds the crop into the conical portion. The bale forming process can be interrupted if an insufficient volume of crop is collected on the rotary feed table. The netting material is provided on short rolls to facilitate loading onto the machine. A cutoff mechanism is coupled to the growth of the bale from the cylindrical portion to sever the bale at a predetermined length with end surfaces that are perpendicular to the axis of the bale. A bale density mechanism supports the distal end of the bale as the bale protrudes upwardly.

    摘要: A machine for making bales from plant matter includes a compression chamber, a conveying device for conveying the plant matter into the compression chamber, a piston able to move in the compression chamber in order to compress the plant matter, and a drive device for driving the translational movement of the piston. The drive device further includes a hydraulic device comprising a hydraulic pump connected to the coupling member, a hydraulic motor powered by the hydraulic pump, a drive member driven by the hydraulic motor and configured to move the piston in a translational movement, and a control device for controlling the movement of the piston.

    摘要: A baler system includes a baler controller includes a processor operable to execute a bale ejection algorithm to receive a command input to initiate a last bale ejection sequence. Upon receiving the command input, the baler controller automatically engages a knotter system to wrap and bind crop material currently disposed within a baling chamber to form a final bale. Upon forming the final bale, the baler controller automatically determines if a discharge location disposed proximate a discharge end of the baling chamber is clear of obstructions. Upon determining that the discharge end of the baling chamber is clear of obstructions, the baler controller automatically engages a bale ejection system to eject the final bale from the baling chamber and onto the discharge location.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a round baler for harvested agricultural material, which round baler forms a pressing chamber for pressing a round bale, comprising a wrapping device for wrapping the pressed round bale with a sheathing material and comprising a transfer device, which is configured to form a transfer segment, via which the pressed round bale can be transferred in a transfer direction from the pressing chamber to the wrapping device, and comprising at least one transfer segment device, which, at least in a first position, forms at least a predominant first part of the transfer segment, wherein the transfer device comprises a transfer drive element, which, to drive the pressed round bale to the wrapping device, is mounted movably relative to the transfer segment device at least proportionally in the transfer direction in at least one drive position, in which position the transfer segment device is arranged at least partially between the transfer drive element and a ground contact plane of the round baler. The present invention further relates to a method of operating a round baler.
