  • Baler density control mechanism and method
    Patent number: 8468937
    Abstract: A method of electronically sensing the fill of material in a stuffer chute and tripping a stuffer of a baler.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 31, 2011
    Date of Patent: June 25, 2013
    Assignee: AGCO Corporation
    Inventors: Robert A. Matousek, Patrick Kendrick, Jason Seeger, Lawrence D. Retzlaff

  • Baler density control mechanism and method
    Patent number: 8291818
    Abstract: A method of electronically sensing the fill of material in a stuffer chute and tripping a stuffer of a baler. A combine harvester and baler for biomass collection. In one embodiment, crop material such as the residue or material other than grain (MOG) from the back of the combine is directly projected toward a target on a baler collection device. A tailboard with defection panels may be used to alter the direction of the crop residue from the combine. The tongue of the baler is configured to not obstruct the crop material as the crop material is projected toward the baler. One or more knives of a chopper coupled to the combine may be configured to optimally project MOG toward the baler. Also, the stuffer chute of the baler may be configured to facilitate the flow of crop material such as MOG and therefore minimize obstructions. The crop material is transferred from the combine to the baler without the use of a conveyor.
