Agricultural baler with rolls having overlapping extensions
11576308 · 2023-02-14 · ·

A roll assembly, which may be included in an agricultural baler, includes: a first roll having a first roll surface with a plurality of first extensions extending therefrom, the first extensions defining a first rotation path when rotated; and a second roll having a second roll surface with a plurality of second extensions extending therefrom, the second extensions defining a second rotation path when rotated. The first roll and the second roll are disposed adjacent to one another such that the first rotation path and the second rotation path partially overlap. At least one roll driver is coupled to at least one of the first roll or the second roll and configured to rotate the first roll and the second roll in the rotation direction such that the first extensions and the second extensions do not collide with each other during rotation of the first roll and the second roll.

Agricultural baler with pivotable roll having external portion

A baling chamber for an agricultural baler includes: a plurality of sidewalls defining a volume, one of the sidewalls having a roll opening formed therein; a plurality of belts disposed within the volume; a sledge assembly including at least one roll that is pivotable within the volume, the at least one roll having an exterior portion that extends out of the volume through the roll opening and a bearing disposed outside of the volume and associated with the exterior portion; and a drive assembly disposed outside of the volume, coupled to the exterior portion, and configured to rotate the at least one roll.

WRAP MATERIAL GUIDE PAN FOR ROUND BALER

Disclosed herein is a wrap material feed system of a round baler for forming crop material into a cylindrical bale. The wrap material feed system comprises a first roller, a second roller, a bale formation belt, and a feed pan oriented from a first end adjacent the first roller to a second end adjacent the second roller and a feed pan positioning mechanism oriented to bias the feed pan into engagement with each of the first and second rollers and the bale formation belt. The feed pan comprises one or more runners, at least one guide plate, one or more skid plates, and one or more fasteners comprising a fastener head. The fastener head is positioned at the second end such that a vector representing a first normal force at the second roller intersects the fastener head.

A baling roller for a round agricultural baler includes a roller body with a jacket surface, which encloses the circumference and the length of the roller body. Furthermore, radially extending elevations are located, on the jacket surface, over the circumference and the length of the roller body. In order to optimize the pressing effect of the baling roller, the elevations on the jacket surface have a greater radial extension on the end areas of the roller body than in an area of the roller body, lying between the end areas.
