A conveying system for an agricultural harvester includes a first belt and a second belt. The first belt and the second belt are configured to transport agricultural product along a downstream direction toward a cavity. The conveying system also includes a starter roller spaced apart from the first belt by a gap along a vertical axis. The starter roller is configured to initiate formation of a bale of the agricultural product within the cavity. Furthermore, the conveying system includes a blocking bar positioned proximate to the first belt and to the starter roller. A vertical extent of the blocking bar at least partially overlaps the gap with respect to the vertical axis, and the blocking bar is configured to block the agricultural product within the cavity from passing through the gap along an upstream direction.

A round baler includes a forming belt defining a baling chamber having an inlet through which crop material enters. A belt tensioning system includes a tension arm and a plurality of moveable rollers that move for maintaining tension in a forming belt while allowing a diametric size of the bale to increase during formation. A starter roll is positioned immediately upstream of the inlet relative to a rotational direction of the bale within the baling chamber during formation. The starter roll is moveable during bale formation in a direction at least partially directed toward a central transverse axis of the baling chamber to maintain a constant inward deformation distance into an exterior circumferential surface of the bale as the diametric size of the bale increases during formation.

A worm conveyor is proposed for a press, in particular an agricultural baler, having at least one roll, screw flights winding in opposing directions at least in some regions around the roll being provided on the peripheral surface thereof for conveying material, wherein the screw flights are configured such that they bring together the material in two collecting regions arranged outside a central region of the worm conveyor. A press, in particular an agricultural baler having at least one roller, a flexible pressing means winding around the roller and at least one worm conveyor are also proposed.

A mat leveling system for a conveying system of an agricultural harvester includes a first outlet roller configured to support a first belt of a pair of opposing belts. The mat leveling system also includes a second outlet roller configured to support a second belt of the pair of opposing belts. Furthermore, the mat leveling system includes a first mounting assembly configured to enable movement of the first outlet roller relative to the second outlet roller and to urge the first outlet roller toward the second belt to reduce variations in a thickness of a mat of agricultural product, a second mounting assembly configured to enable movement of the second outlet roller relative to the first outlet roller and to urge the second outlet roller toward the first belt to reduce the variations in the thickness of the mat of the agricultural product, or a combination thereof.

A device for adjusting a sprocket of a chain drive includes a bearing journal having a free end and a fixed end, a rotary bearing arranged on the bearing journal, and a sprocket guided on the rotary bearing. A stop is formed on the bearing journal and at least one spring element is arranged between the rotary bearing and the stop, wherein a preloading means is provided via a clamp which preloads the rotary bearing against the spring element.

A wrap system for a baler implement includes a spool roller for directing a wrap material into a baling chamber. The spool roller includes an exterior surface, which defines a cylindrical shape rotatable about an axis of rotation. An annular groove is disposed about the axis of rotation and recessed below the exterior surface of the spool roller. A material guide includes a first portion disposed within the annular groove of the spool roller for positioning the material guide relative to the spool roller, and a guide portion attached to the first portion and extending radially away from the axis of rotation of the spool roller to a distal end spaced radially away from the exterior surface of the spool roller for guiding the wrap material away from the spool roller and into the baling chamber.

Disclosed is an agricultural baler assembly having, a pickup assembly, a primary roller assembly and a secondary roller assembly. The pickup assembly includes a tine reel with tines that rotate about a rotation axis and a pickup drum surrounding a portion of the tine reel. The primary roller assembly has a primary roller mounted to the baler assembly frame by primary roller arms that pivot about a primary roller arm pivot axis. The secondary roller assembly has a secondary roller mounted to the primary roller arms or the baler assembly frame by secondary roller arms that pivot about a secondary roller arm pivot axis. The primary roller rotation axis is spaced a first distance from the primary roller arm pivot axis; and the secondary roller rotation axis is spaced a second distance from the primary roller arm pivot axis, and the second distance is less than the first distance.
