A baler connectable to a tractor for providing round bales, comprises: a baling chamber including a first part, and a second part; a pick-up device; a feeding system, including a feeding channel movable between a first configuration and a second configuration, wherein, in the first configuration of the feeding system, the feeding channel has a first orientation so that the outlet of the feeding channel is opened to the first part of the baling chamber, and, in the second configuration of the feeding system, the feeding channel has a second orientation, so that the outlet of the feeding channel is opened to the second part of the baling chamber, wherein the feeding system further includes a plurality of starter rollers, arranged at the outlet of the feeding channel.

A round baler for providing round bales, comprises: a frame; a first wheel and a second wheel associated to the frame; a baling chamber supported by the frame, for receiving crops and for housing a formed bale; a conveying assembly, which delimits the baling chamber; a binder, configured for binding the formed bale with a fastening element; a control unit. The baler is self-propelled and comprises a motorization unit connected to the first wheel and to the second wheel, for moving the baler on the ground. The control unit is connected to the motorization unit for controlling it.

An apparatus for continuously forming round bales of forage material, and particularly round bales with compressed side walls, from windrowed harvested lines of forage, the apparatus including a continuous pickup, a continuous rotary chopper, an accumulation chamber with a compressed and chopped forage material entry slot and a decompressing exit slot plus a standard form intermittent round baler.

A bale wrapping system includes a bale chamber configured to receive agricultural product and a belt configured to be disposed within the bale chamber. The belt is configured to be positioned between a bale wrap and an interior surface of the bale chamber while the belt is disposed within the bale chamber. Additionally, the belt is configured to support the bale wrap and to move into the bale chamber due to a weight of the agricultural product on the bale wrap. Further, the belt is configured to compact the agricultural product within the bale wrap, such that a bale of the agricultural product at least partially surrounded by the bale wrap is formed within the bale chamber.

An agricultural harvesting machine includes a binding mechanism to secure binding material around a crop package and a delivery device to wrap binding material around a portion of the crop package and provide binding material to the binding mechanism. The delivery device includes a needle connected to a needle frame. The needle frame includes a yoke connected a first arm.

A baler includes a housing forming a baling chamber. The baling chamber includes an inlet defining an inlet width. The inlet width extends substantially across the baling chamber, between a first lateral side and a second lateral side. A crop distributor defines a distributor width and includes a forward end and a rearward end. The distributor width is substantially less than the inlet width. One of the baling chamber and the crop distributor is moveable relative to the other of the baling chamber and the crop distributor, such that the rearward end of the crop distributor is laterally moveable, relative to the inlet of the baling chamber, between the first lateral side and the second lateral side. Lateral movement of the rearward end of the crop distributor relative to the baling chamber distributes the cut crop material across the inlet width of the baling chamber.

A module builder includes a wrap floor system including a wrap floor belt wrapped around a front belt sheave and a first drive system coupled to the wrap floor system. The first drive system includes a main drive belt coupled to a rear belt sheave and the front belt sheave, wherein in an engagement mode of operation the main drive belt is tensioned to rotate the rear belt sheave, and in a disengagement mode of operation the main drive belt loses tension to cease rotation of the rear belt sheave. The builder includes a second drive system coupled to a baler belt to drive the baler belt into a module forming chamber. The first drive system further includes one or more of a rear lower gate roller, friction wheel, wrap box roller, electric clutch, or motor to engage and drive the main drive belt.

A baler for forming a bale of crop material includes a plurality of walls defining a bale chamber. A drive roller and a plurality of idler rollers are disposed in the bale chamber. At least one baling belt contacts the drive roller and the plurality of idler rollers. A bale engagement roller is rotatable about a bale engagement roller axis. The bale engagement roller is positioned to directly engage crop material in the bale chamber. An actuator is coupled to the bale engagement roller. The actuator translates the bale engagement roller in a direction perpendicular to the bale engagement roller axis.
