Definitions

  • the present invention relates to processing of agricultural modules of crop produce and more particularly relates to an assembly and methods for processing modules containing produce such as but not limited to seed cotton.
  • the invention further relates to an assembly capable of removing seed cotton from seed cotton modules covered with a plastics sleeve.
  • the present invention further relates to a method and an apparatus which enables removal of a plastics sleeve from a seed cotton module and which allows release of the seed cotton for further processing.
  • the invention further provides an apparatus which receives and retains a seed cotton module and facilitates removal of the seed cotton from a plastics sleeve which captures the seed cotton.
  • the present invention also relates to a method of processing a seed cotton module for presentation to such apparatus for removing the plastics sleeve.
  • the invention further relates to a device for handling cylindrical seed cotton modules each having their circumference wrapped with a plastics wrapping material.
  • the device includes primary support space frame having arms and feet members each hydraulically controlled to grip and remove the plastics wrapping material from the cylindrical seed cotton module.
  • Cotton is a soft, staple fiber that grows in a form known as a boll around the seeds of the cotton plant. This is known as seed cotton. Once harvested, seed cotton must be removed from the harvester and stored before it is delivered to gins. Seed cotton is removed from the harvester and placed in modules, which are relatively compact units of seed cotton. A cotton module, can be large weighing up to 25,000 pounds. Most cotton in the United States, Europe, and Australia is harvested mechanically, either by a cotton picker, a machine that removes the cotton from the boll without damaging the cotton plant, or by a cotton stripper, which strips the entire boll off the plant.
  • seed cotton moves to nearby gins for separation of lint and seed.
  • the cotton first goes through dryers to reduce moisture content and then through cleaning equipment to remove foreign matter. These operations facilitate processing and improve fiber quality.
  • the cotton is then air conveyed to gin stands where revolving circular saws pull the lint through closely spaced ribs that prevent the seed from passing through.
  • the lint is removed from the saw teeth by air blasts or rotating brushes, and then compressed into bales weighing approximately 500 pounds.
  • Cotton is then moved to a warehouse for storage until it is shipped to a textile mill for use.
  • the agricultural industry commonly uses modules to retain produce for transportation and storage before further processing.
  • Produce is commonly wrapped in a plastics cover creating cylindrical modules with open ends. This practice is adopted for food produce such as lucerne and hay also for seed cotton produce. Once seed cotton is harvested, the produce is wrapped using a tight plastics sleeve forming a generally cylindrical module with open ends. Various methods have in the past been used for removal of the seed cotton from the modules
  • Loosening, stripping and rolling are accomplished by compound motion of tines of a rake, with the tines having relatively fast movement in a closed path of travel generally about a center of movement and with a lower reach in which the tines move in one direction and the rake having relatively slow movement in that direction, such that repeated relatively quick strokes of the tines cooperate with the slower movement of the rake for stripping and rolling the textile fiber.
  • the tines penetrate into the uppermost region of the bale. Thereafter, a frame holding the tines is laterally displaced to slide along the support so that the upper region gripped by the tines is simply pulled away to the side. After the frame has been pushed back over the bale, the support is moved vertically downwardly along the movable frame so that the tines which are fastened to the frame can penetrate the fiber bale anew, likewise in a vertical direction.
  • United States Patent 5,211,708 discloses a fiber bale opening machine having an inclined opening roller provided with a conveying apparatus for stepwise displacement of fiber bales in the direction of the opening roller.
  • the roller is movable transversely with respect to the direction of the displacement.
  • the conveying apparatus includes at least one stationary support for supporting the bale and at least one shifting device for performing a repetitive movement cycle starting from an initial position and returning back to it. In the initial position, the lifting device is lower than the stationary support and the bale is supported on such support. Later the lifting device moves up to take over support of the bale and during this time it shifts in the direction of intended bale displacement.
  • an assembly which is adjustable to receive a seed cotton module and which can be adjusted to allow engagement with the module presented in an optimal attitude for sleeve removal and subsequent release of seed cotton for further processing along a production conveyor.
  • the present invention seeks to provide an improved method and apparatus for removing produce from a module &/or bale created by field wrapping in a plastics sleeve.
  • the present provides an assembly and methods for processing seed cotton modules and more particularly relates to an assembly capable of removing seed cotton from seed cotton modules covered with a plastics sleeve without necessarily cutting the sleeve.
  • the present invention further relates to an apparatus which enables removal of a plastics sleeve from a seed cotton module by gravitation and which allows release of the seed cotton for further processing.
  • the invention further provides an apparatus which receives and retains a seed cotton module by application of compression and facilitates removal of the seed cotton from a plastics sleeve which is wrapped about the seed cotton.
  • the present invention also relates to a method of processing a seed cotton module for presentation to such apparatus for removing the plastics sleeve.
  • the assembly could be used to removing plastics wrapping from hay and lucerne bales.
  • the present invention comprises: an apparatus for enabling the removal of a covering from a produce module/bale, the apparatus comprising; a primary support frame including legs fixed to ground surface via feet a gantry which supports a compression assembly capable of receiving and retaining a module; wherein the compression assembly moves between a non working state in which compression arms supported by said gantry are retracted away from a workspace in which a module is located and a working state in which the compression arms apply sufficient pressure to the bale to allow removal of a plastics sleeve as the compression assembly is moved from a location in which the compression arms grip the module to a location in which the sleeve is released from the module.
  • the plastics sleeve is removed by elevating the sleeve relative to the module contents so that the module contents are left in a work station. Elevation of the plastics allows the produce to gravitate away from the sleeve via the open end of the module for further processing.
  • the compression assembly is supported by a gantry which is adapted for vertical extension and retraction.
  • the apparatus includes four legs which engage ground anchored pivot connections enabling the legs to rotate freely as the gantry is vertically advanced and retracted.
  • Struts connected to the gantry are connected to ends of respective legs via pin connections which allow the struts to rotate through an arc in a substantially vertical plane through at least 100 degrees enabling the gantry to descend and ascend.
  • the ascent and descent of the gantry is preferably assisted by hydraulically actuated struts.
  • the gantry includes an auxiliary frame from which depends the compression assembly which includes evenly spaced compression arms which radially oppose a circumferential wall of a module. Preferably, the compression arms are urged radially inward towards a module placed under the assembly.
  • the present invention comprises: an apparatus for enabling the release of produce from a module/bale retained by a plastics sleeve, the apparatus comprising; a primary support frame including legs fixed to ground surface via feet a gantry which supports a compression assembly capable of receiving and retaining a module; means to enable the compression assembly to moves between a non working state in which the compression assembly is elevated above a work station and a working state in which the compression assembly is at a work station in which compression arms are capable of retaining a produce module; wherein the compression assembly includes means to enable the arms to apply a radial force to the module sufficient to allow the compression assembly to remove the plastics sleeve and allow the produce to gravitate through a free end of the module as the plastics sleeve is elevated away from the produce.
  • the produce is a cotton crop.
  • the compression assembly is retained by an overhead gantry which ascends and descends as the apparatus moves between the working and non working states.
  • the compression arms apply sufficient pressure to the bale to allow removal of a plastics sleeve using a friction force as the compression assembly is moved from a location in which the compression arms grip the module to a location in which the sleeve is released from the module.
  • the present invention comprises; a method of releasing a produce module from a retaining sleeve, using an apparatus comprising; the method comprising the steps of : an apparatus for enabling the release of produce from a module retained by a plastics sleeve, the apparatus comprising; a primary support frame including legs fixed to ground surface via feet a gantry which supports a compression assembly capable of receiving and retaining a module; means to enable the compression assembly to moves between a non working state in which the compression assembly is elevated above a work station and a working state in which the compression assembly is at a work station in which compression arms are capable of retaining a produce module; the method comprising the steps of; a) placing the produce bale at a work station underneath the apparatus so that the module is sitting on an open end; b) advancing arms of the compression assembly so that a radial force is applied to a wall of the module sufficient to friction grip the sleeve; c) elevating the compression assembly so

  • a round seed cotton bale also described as a module is packed using a plastics sleeve which is wrapped tightly about the module usually leaving open ends.
  • Round seed cotton modules can weigh up to three tonne so module handling must be mechanised. The seed cotton is contained under a circumferential compression force induced by tension in the plastics sleeve when the module is wrapped.
  • a round seed cotton module is typically cylindrical such that the plastics sleeve forms a wall for the bale leaving open ends with seed cotton at those ends exposed to the outside.
  • the seed cotton cannot escape from the open ends due to the aforesaid compression force exerted by the sleeve.
  • One method for releasing the cotton from a round seed cotton module is by cutting the sleeve manually. Another way is to allow the seed cotton to escape from the free open ends but this will not occur of its own volition without mechanical intervention as the tensile forces exerted by the sleeve prevent this.
  • First conveyor 8 terminates in an incline 10 which elevates module 3 sufficiently to enable it to fall off incline 10 and as it does it rotates about 90 degrees to an end-on attitude.
  • Module 2 leaves the position of module 3 such that its open end 11 seats on inclined ramp 12 of second conveyor 13.
