Patent number: 10194593Abstract: A bale forming apparatus and a bale forming method form cylindrical bales. A bale forming chamber is surrounded by a bale forming mechanism. A bale is formed in this bale forming chamber. This bale is pushed onto a bale supporting construction. This bale supporting construction buffers the bale. A further bale is created in the bale forming chamber. One pushing member pushes the old bale from the bale forming chamber onto the bale supporting construction. This pushing member is connected with a holding device and performs a movement on a circular path for pushing the bale. The drive rotates the holding device around a rotating axis. A pivotal guiding member is pivoted into a guiding position and contributes to provide a bale forming chamber for the new bale.Type: GrantFiled: December 1, 2015Date of Patent: February 5, 2019Assignee: Forage Company B.V.Inventors: Willem Jacobus Reijersen Van Buuren, Rudy De Jong

Patent number: 10028445Abstract: A bale forming apparatus and a bale forming method are provided. A bale is formed in a bale forming chamber. A bale pushing device pushes the bale away from an outlet onto a bale supporting construction. A guiding element is pivoted into a guiding position. The guiding element in the guiding position contributes to guide a bale forming mechanism such that a bale forming device a chamber is also provided when the bale is on the bale supporting construction. A new bale is formed in the provided bale forming chamber. The bale pushing device is pivoted around the pivoting axis in a pushing direction and backwards and performs a reciprocating movement. Pivoting the bale pushing device in the pushing direction causes the guiding element to be pushed and pivoted into the guiding position.Type: GrantFiled: April 19, 2013Date of Patent: July 24, 2018Assignee: FORAGE COMPANY B.V.Inventors: Willem Jacobus Reijersen Van Buuren, Rudy De Jong

Patent number: 9258947Abstract: A bale forming apparatus and a bale forming method form cylindrical bales. An intake device conveys material into a bale forming chamber. A bale is formed in the bale forming chamber. A bale pushing device pushes the bale onto a bale supporting construction being in a bale receiving position. This bale supporting construction buffers the bale. A pivoting mechanism pivots the bale supporting construction carrying the bale from the bale receiving position into a bale supporting position. The distance between the bale on the bale supporting construction and the outlet is increased. The creation of a further bale in the bale forming chamber is started. The bale supporting construction carrying the bale is pivoted from the bale supporting position into a bale ejecting position. The bale is ejected.Type: GrantFiled: April 19, 2013Date of Patent: February 16, 2016Assignee: Forage Innovations B.V.Inventors: Willem Jacobus Reijersen Van Buuren, Rudy De Jong

Patent number: 9232697Abstract: A bale forming apparatus and a bale forming method for forming cylindrical bales of material are provided. An intake device conveys material through an outlet into a bale forming chamber which is surrounded by a bale forming mechanism and which is situated adjacent to the outlet. A front housing part and a rear housing part are adapted for being connected with each other to form a bale forming housing. The rear housing part together with a bale on a bale carrying member can be pivoted with respect to the front housing part around an angle of at least 90 degrees. The rear housing part can be pivoted from a bale receiving position into a bale ejecting position where the bale is ejected.Type: GrantFiled: April 19, 2013Date of Patent: January 12, 2016Assignee: FORAGE INNOVATIONS B.V.Inventors: Willem Jacobus Reijersen Van Buuren, Rudy De Jong

Patent number: 9232696Abstract: A bale forming apparatus and a bale forming method form cylindrical bales. An intake device conveys material into a bale forming chamber surrounded by a bale forming mechanism. A bale in this bale forming chamber is formed by means of the bale forming mechanism. A pivotal guiding member is mounted at a free end of a guiding member arm. The guiding member arm is pivoted in a guiding direction and in a parking direction. This causes the guiding member to be pivoted into a guiding position and into a parking position. An actuator pivots a guiding member arm pivoting element in a pivoting direction that is the guiding direction or the parking direction. This pivoting step causes the guiding member arm to be pivoted in the pivoting direction.Type: GrantFiled: April 19, 2013Date of Patent: January 12, 2016Assignee: FORAGE INNOVATIONS B.V.Inventors: Willem Jacobus Reijersen Van Buuren, Rudy De Jong

An intake device conveys material into a bale forming chamber surrounded by a bale forming means. A bale in this bale forming chamber is formed by means of the bale forming means. A pivotal guiding member (28.1, 28.2) is mounted at a free end of a guiding member arm (26.1, 26.2). The guiding member arm (26.1, 26.2) is pivoted in a guiding direction and in a parking direction. This causes the guiding member (28.1, 28.2) to be pivoted into a guiding position and into a parking position. An actuating means (42) pivots a guiding member arm pivoting element (41) in a pivoting direction that is the guiding direction or the parking direction.
