The present disclosure relates to a method for operating a round baler. The method comprises providing a nonstop baler type machine; feeding of crop into a prechamber and a main bale forming chamber; and providing, by a binding unit, a binding material to the main bale forming chamber for wrapping a bale formed in the main bale forming chamber, comprising, in a first mode of operation, providing a stretching apparatus in contact with the binding material, thereby, applying a compressive force to the binding material for stretching the binding material; and in a second mode of operation, providing the stretching apparatus free of contact with the binding material. Furthermore, a round baler is disclosed.

The present disclosure refers to a method for operating a round baler. The method comprises providing a nonstop baler type machine; controlling a feeding mechanism for feeding of crop into a prechamber and a main bale forming chamber by a control system of the baler; in a feeding operation, feeding the crop through a first feeding channel into the prechamber; and switching the feeding operation by the control system, thereby, stopping feeding the crop into the prechamber and starting feeding the crop through a second feeding channel into a main bale forming chamber of the baler. The control system is configured to switch the feeding operation in response to a binding material parameter reaching a predetermined parameter value, the binding material provided for wrapping a bale formed in the main bale forming chamber. Furthermore, a round baler is disclosed.

An apparatus for the automated loading of wrapping material in an agricultural baling apparatus is disclosed. A reservoir houses at least two rolls of differing wrapping material, each roll of wrapping material having a leading end forming a gathered string, the gathering string being located in an associated retention notch. A pair of opposing feed rollers are provided for feeding the wrapping material into a baling chamber. A displacement apparatus is configured to move the gathered string between a first position in which the gathered string is located at least in part within the associated retention notch and a second position in which the gathered string is located at least in part in contact with the feed rollers.

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.

A continuous baler having a movable section having an open mode and a closed mode. In the closed mode, the movable section is joined to a baling half chamber and a tying half chamber to form a baling chamber and a tying chamber, respectively. In the open mode, the movable section is moved away from the baling half chamber and tying half chamber, in order to allow passage of a bale formed in the baling chamber from the baling half chamber to the tying half chamber.

An agricultural baler system having a direction of travel and adapted to compile a windrow of crop into a bale, the agricultural baler system having a baler assembly coupled to the work machine and configured to consolidate crop from the underlying windrow into the bale, the baler assembly implementing a wrapping process to maintain the form of the bale and an eject process for ejecting the bale, and a windrow diverter selectively positionable between a divert position and a bypass position. Wherein, when the windrow diverter is in the divert position, the underlying windrow is repositioned as the baler assembly moves in the direction of travel.

A baling device to form bales of crop material, including a frame, an intake device, a bale forming device for forming a bale of the crop material, the bale forming device including at least one endless belt to delimit a baling chamber, and a number of guiding elements to guide the endless belt, the outlet of the intake device is located at a fixed position with respect to the frame, and at least three guiding elements are movably mounted with respect to the outlet of the intake device to position for subsequent bales different pairs of two guiding elements of the at least three movable guiding elements at the opposite sides of the outlet.

A baler implement includes a baling chamber having an inlet spanning across a width thereof. The width of the inlet may be subdivided into a plurality of discrete regions. A preservative dispensing system includes a plurality of nozzles arranged across the width of the inlet. Each of the nozzles is independently controllable based on the crop density within a respective one of the discrete regions to dispense a preservative at different application rates within each of the discrete regions.

A round baler (1) that includes a feed channel (6) leading to a pressing chamber (55), a drivable transfer device (20) to convey harvested material through the feed channel (6) toward the pressing chamber (55) in a pressing mode, as well as a storage device (30) with a storage space (32). There is a means to continuously pick up harvested material, and a storage device (30) has a storage space wall (31) which outwardly delimits the storage space (32), in communication with the feed channel (6) by means of at least one storage space opening (33), as well as a drivable storage space conveyor (34) for the harvested material within the storage space (32), wherein, in storage mode, the storage device (30) intakes harvested material from the feed channel (6) and, in the pressing mode, discharges harvested material to the feed channel (6) both with a storage space opening(s) (33).

A baler connectable to a tractor for providing round bales comprises: a baling chamber for receiving crops for forming the bale, the baling chamber being supported on a wheel axle; a conveying assembly, including a belt which at least partially delimits the baling chamber for imparting a rotating movement to the crops contained in the baling chamber; a pick-up device, configured for picking-up the crops from a field; a feeding system, configured for feeding the crops to the baling chamber; a binder, configured for binding a formed bale with a fastening element.
