  • Publication number: 20030101697
    Abstract: The invention concerns a bale wrapping device comprising a wrapping platform (1) on which a bale (11) is rotatable about a horizontal axis (9) and a support frame (23), which carries at least one rotating arm (17) rotatable about a vertical axis (19) by means of a rotation drive (18, 21). In order to reduce the overall height of the rotating arm drive, it is proposed according to the invention that the rotation drive (18, 21) is arranged between the upper side (A) of the support frame (23) and the under side (B) of the rotating arm (17).

  • Publication number: 20030024407
    Abstract: The invention relates to a round baler (1) for agricultural stalk material, which is arranged, in combination with a wrapper (3) for wrapping a round bale (42a) in film, on at least one running gear, a sloping plane in the form of a chute device (20) for the finished round bale (42a) being provided between the round baler (1) and the wrapper (3). To ensure that the round bale (42a) is transferred reliably and as quickly as possible to the wrapper (3) by simple means and without the expenditure of a large amount of force, it is proposed according to the invention that the chute device (20) be adjustable. Due to a steeper position of the chute device (20), the round bale (42a) rolls quickly out of the swivel zone (43) of the round baler (1), such that the rear housing (10) may be closed just as quickly as with round balers (1) operating alone.
