  • Publication number: 20030230046
    Abstract: A large round baler is equipped with an enveloping arrangement that moves a run of enveloping material to the circumferential surface of a bale with a pivot arm including a driver having projections in the form of teeth that can be caused to penetrate the enveloping material to cause a positive locking with the run of enveloping material so that the enveloping material may be selectively inserted into the baling chamber at the beginning of a wrapping cycle and engaged with a contact plate to effect separation of the enveloping material once a predetermined number of wraps have been applied to the circumference of the bale.

  • Patent number: 6453805
    Abstract: A large round baler has an expansible baling chamber defined, in part, by a plurality of side-by-side mounted belts that act to roll up crop to form a bale within the chamber. The baler is equipped with a twine wrapping arrangement which leaves loose twine ends adjacent one of the ends of the wrapped baler. In order to secure these loose ends, there is provided an adhesive tape dispensing arrangement, which cooperates with the bale-forming belt that is aligned with the area of the bale on which the loose twine ends lie, so that a length of adhesive tape is selectively fed into the bale chamber by the bale-forming belt such that it is wrapped about the bale in covering relationship to the loose twine ends. A separating arrangement is provided for causing that part of the length of adhesive tape that is wrapped about the bale to be separated from the supply roll of tape.
