  • Publication number: 20190090430
    Abstract: An agricultural round baler has an interior space enclosed by a housing, a feeding device, a plurality of guide rollers, a press belt and an adjusting device with at least one adjusting roller. At least one of the guide rollers is a drive roller that drives the press belt. The press belt defines a press chamber which interacts with the transfer cross section. The adjusting roller is positioned along the running track of the press belt so that at least one running track section at least partly delimits the press chamber. The adjusting roller is moveable within the interior space so that at least one part of the running track of the press belt is moveable. A second adjusting device is operationally combined with the first adjusting device to define the press chamber. The adjusting roller of the second adjusting device is moveable within the interior space.

  • Patent number: 9149004
    Abstract: A method for operating a baler with a pressing chamber which serves for the pressing of a straw-like crop includes compacting the crop using an adjustable pressing pressure and binding the crop through a holding material. The pressing pressure is limited to a maximum value and controlled through a control circuit. A control circuit reference variable is a load variable of the holding material. The load variable is adjustable and is smaller than or equal to the maximum value.

  • Patent number: 8813642
    Abstract: An agricultural ram press has a bale chamber, a baling ram moveable in an oscillating manner in the bale chamber, a feed channel, a feed rake arranged in the feed channel and switchable between a gathering stroke motion which compresses crop in the feed channel and a filling stroke motion which moves the crop from the feed channel into the bale channel, and a drive for driving the feed rake and having a control rod interacting with an adjustable stop to control at least one of the motions of the feed rake.
