A baling system comprising a first bale-forming area configured to form a first series of first individual bales, and a second bale forming-area configured to from a second series of second individual bales. The baling system additionally comprises a bale accumulator configured to receive the first and second individual bales from said first and second bale-forming areas and to manipulate the first and second individual bales into a group of four or more bales.

ROTOR FOR A HIGH CAPACITY BALER
20200214214 · 2020-07-09 ·

A square baler comprising square baler comprising a pickup mechanism configured to pick up crop material from a single windrow on the ground, and a rotor configured to receive crop material picked up by the pickup mechanism. The rotor comprises a first toothed section, a second toothed section, and an interior auger flighted section located between the first toothed section and the section toothed section, wherein said rotor is configured to separate crop material into two streams of crop material.

IDENTIFICATION TAGGING SYSTEM FOR HARVESTING MACHINES AND METHOD THEREOF
20200178472 · 2020-06-11 ·

The present disclosure is for a bale tag assembly for coupling to a baled crop that has twine formed of a plurality of fibers and a bale tag at least partially embedded in the twine. The bale tag has an embedded antenna configured to provide an identification number associated with the bale tag.

V-Notch Twine Disk for Variable Twine Quantity Hay Baler Knotter
20200178470 · 2020-06-11 · ·

A twine disk for a mechanical knotter of a hay bailer has four vee shaped V-notches each formed with a hook portion and two substantially straight edge portions to enable tying twine knots with either two strands or with four stands using the same knotter.

Twine Shifter Assembly for Hay Baler
20200178471 · 2020-06-11 · ·

Twine shifters that enable the mechanical knotter of a hay baler to tie either two twines into a 2-twine knot or tie four twines into a 4-twine knot. For a 2-twine knot the twine shifters each move their respective upper and lower twines out of the needle's path where the twines are gathered to be tied in a knot. So when the needle swings through its path it only picks up two strands, and misses the two strands moved out of its path. To tie a 4-twine knot the upper and lower twine shifters each move their respective upper and lower twines back into the needle's path. This allows the needle to gather up all four twine strands to tie in a 4-twine knot.

Knotting device driven by two toothed discs
10667466 · 2020-06-02 · ·

The invention discloses a knotter driven by double fluted disc. The knotter driven by double fluted disc comprises a small fluted disc, a knotter rack, a large fluted disc, a cutter arm assembled on the knotter rack, a knotter jaw and bill hook combined mechanism (R), a rope gripper driving mechanism (Q) and a rope gripper (J), wherein a composite fluted disc of traditional D-knotter is divided into the small fluted disc and the large fluted disc in the knotter driven by double fluted disc.

Baling press and method of pressing and tying bales in a baling press

A baling press with a bale pressing channel, a ram for pressing material in the bale pressing channel, the ram having a pressing face and a slot in the pressing face, a tying assembly on a first side of the bale pressing channel with a loop supply member for forming a loop across the bale pressing channel and movable between an extended position projecting through the slot and a retracted position. The press further has a slot clearing member movable between an extended position projecting through the slot and a retracted position on one side of said bale pressing channel. The slot clearing member and the tying assembly are on opposite sides of a feeding passage. The bale pressing channel is open for discharging cleared material on a side opposite of the location of the slot clearing member in its retracted position. A method of operation is also described.

Bale identification system and method

A baler implement a tag installer operable to attach an RFID identification tag to a bale. A reader is positioned to interrogate the identification tag for receiving data from the identification tag. The reader is operable to emit an interrogation signal for interrogating the identification tag in accordance with a pre-defined timing sequence. The reader emits the interrogation signal regardless of a position of the bale in the baling chamber or on the baler implement. As such, the interrogation signal is emitted based on the pre-defined timing sequence. The pre-defined timing sequence may include a repeated on/off interrogation sequence, or continuously scanning interrogation sequence.
