An in line bale hay bale wrapper with an selective automatic film cutter.

A bale wrap mechanism for use with a roll of wrap material, the bale wrap mechanism including a frame including a wrap chute formed from one or more perimeter walls, where the wrap chute defines a wrap axis extending longitudinally therethrough, and where the one or more perimeter walls at least partially define a passageway, a wrap arm coupled to the frame, the wrap arm having a mounting point movable with respect to the frame, and a shaft coupled to the mounting point and configured to support the roll of wrap material thereon, where the shaft is configured to travel along a wrap path during a wrapping process, where the wrap path surrounds the passageway, and where the wrap path is non-circular in shape.

A bale wrap mechanism for use with a roll of wrap material, the bale wrap mechanism including a frame including a wrap chute formed from one or more perimeter walls, where the wrap chute defines a wrap axis extending longitudinally therethrough, and where the one or more perimeter walls at least partially define a passage therebetween. The bale wrap mechanism also includes a wrap arm coupled to the frame, the wrap arm having a mounting point movable with respect to the frame, and a shaft coupled to the mounting point and configured to support the roll of wrap material thereon, where the shaft is configured to travel along a wrap path during a wrapping process, where the wrap path surrounds the passageway, and where the wrap path is substantially rectangular in shape.

A wrapping device to wrap an object in foil material including a frame, a wrapping table mounted on the frame and configured to support the object during wrapping, one or more roll support devices to support one or more rolls of foil material to be rotated about the object during wrapping, a carrying structure mounted on the frame and configured to carry the one or more roll support devices, and a clamping and cutting device to clamp the foil material after wrapping of an object, and to cut the clamped foil material, wherein the clamping and cutting device is mounted on the carrying structure, and wherein the carrying structure is pivotable about a substantially horizontal pivot axis with respect to the frame.

The present disclosure generally relates to an end cap for a roller, and specifically to an end cap for a material spread roll in a harvester. The end cap comprises a base portion and a pin portion, wherein the pin portion inserts into a bearing mechanism to allow the material spread roll to rotate, and wherein the base portion comprises several mechanism to prevent wrapping material stretched by the material spread roll from reaching the bearing mechanism.

A bale wrapping device for a round baler includes a drive roll which can be brought into engagement with a wrapping material roll, and a drive and brake device connected to the drive roll. The drive and brake device is connected both to a variably tensionable drive belt and to a variably tensionable brake belt.

The disclosure relates to a system and methods for wrapping bales in a harvester that uses wrapping material stored in flat, folded layers instead of conventional round tubes or rolls, the system comprising: a material support tray, capable of supporting at least one bundle of wrapping material, at least one feed roll, and at least a first tensioning element, positioned adjacent to or in the material support tray and in operable contact with at least one bundle of wrapping material.

A system and a method for moving wrap material in a baler are described. A motor can be secured to the baler and can be configured to rotate a wrap roller of the baler. The motor can be caused to rotate the wrap roller in a first direction, such that the wrap roller moves the wrap material towards a crop package contained by the baler. The motor can also be caused, during application of the wrap material to the crop package, to brake the wrap roller relative to the first roller direction or to rotate the wrap roller in a second direction that is opposite the first direction, in order to stretch the wrap material.

A transfer device includes an arm that has a first end and a second end. The transfer device includes a pivot positioned at the first end of the arm. The pivot is configured to be secured to a baling machine. The transfer device includes a lifting device positioned on the arm. The lifting device is configured to be attached to a bale wrap material supply roll.

A bale wrap feeding assembly for an agricultural harvester includes a frame configured to move with respect to a lateral axis of the agricultural harvester from a feeding position to a loading position. In addition, the bale wrap feeding assembly includes a fixed feed roller rotatably and non-movably coupled to the frame, and the bale wrap feeding assembly includes a movable feed roller rotatably and movably coupled to the frame. The movable feed roller is movable between an engaged position and a disengaged position relative to the fixed feed roller, the movable feed roller is configured to be positioned proximate to the fixed feed roller while in the engaged position, and the movable feed roller is configured to be positioned remote from the fixed feed roller while in the disengaged position.
