  • Publication number: 20160374271
    Abstract: A round baler includes a bale-forming chamber, around whose periphery drivable conveying elements are distributed, which can be set in motion by means of a drive train, in order to form a bale from material introduced into the bale-forming chamber, and feeding apparatus that is designed to move wrapping material from a storage reservoir in the direction toward the bale-forming chamber, in order to wrap a bale completed in the bale-forming chamber. A part of the conveying elements can be separated from the drive train during the wrapping process and can be coupled with the feeding apparatus, so that the said part of the conveying elements is driven by the bale to be wrapped during the wrapping process and the feeding apparatus is driven at a speed that is dependent on the respective circumferential speed of the bale.

  • Patent number: 9474212
    Abstract: A web wrap device is provided for a round baler. The device has a web carrier for pulling the web from a roll of web to a bale chamber. In a leading portion the web carrier has two elements at least one of which being moveable towards the other. The moveable element has a leading edge, which engages the web and is pulled by the tensioned web onto the other element, which increases the clamping effect. In addition a guard is provided to cover a knife during the wrapping mode, but to expose the knife to the web, when it should be cut.
