Abstract
The application discloses a bale wrapping apparatus (100), comprising a wrapping table with bale rotating means (112, 122) to hold, control and rotate a bale for the application of a wrapping material, and dispenser means (300) configured to dispense the wrapping material from rolls, and a dispenser means rotational support (116) configured to rotate the dispensed wrapping material around a uniform and/or non-uniform bale of material around a central rotating axis, and a wrapping control system configured to power, control, adjust and/or regulate the dispensed wrapping material through the dispenser means (300) to a predefined stretch ratio within acceleration and/or deceleration zones within one or more 360 degree rotations of the dispenser means rotational support (116). Furthermore, the application discloses a method for wrapping a bale (200) made from a crop product by a bale wrapping apparatus (100). means rotational support (116) configured to rotate the dispensed wrapping material around a uniform and/or non-uniform bale of material around a central rotating axis, and a wrapping control system configured to power, control, adjust and/or regulate the dispensed wrapping material through the dispenser means (300) to a predefined stretch ratio within acceleration and/or deceleration zones within one or more 360 degree rotations of the dispenser means rotational support (116). Furthermore, the application discloses a method for wrapping a bale (200) made from a crop product by a bale wrapping apparatus (100).
Description
A bale ng apparatus and a method for wrapping a bale made from a crop t The present disclosure refers to a bale wrapping apparatus and a method for ng a bale made from a crop product.
Background Bale wrapping s have been used extensively now for many years are mainly used to wrap bales of different types of crop mainly consisting of cylindrical shaped bales and rectangular shaped bales of various different sizes.
There are a number of different kinds of bale wrappers but two of the most common types are turntable and satellite / ring types.
Turntable wrappers rotate the bale on two axes around a stationary plastic dispenser unit. The turntable rotates on its central axis for a present number of revolutions.
Satellite wrappers rotate the plastic dispenser means around the bale that sits on the table and the table rotates the bale about its central axis to provide for the plastic overlapping as the satellites rotate the plastic dispensing means around the bale. For the purpose of this application, turntable and satellite wrapping devices have very similar ng characteris- tics but for reasons of y, comparisons to satellite type wrappers will be outlined for in the application and in particular nce to a wrapping apparatus described in a piece of prior art — W0
Claims (8)
1. A bale wrapping apparatus, comprising - a wrapping table with - a bale rotating device configured to support and rotate a bale made from a crop product for the application of a wrapping material; - a material dispenser configured to dispense the wrapping material; and - a material dispenser rotational support configured to rotate the wrapping material dispensed around a central rotating axis; and - a wrapping control system, comprising - a first sensor component configured to sense first signals indicating rotational position and rotational speed for the material dispenser rotational support; and - a controller configured to - receive the first signals; - generate, in response to processing at least one of the first signals, first control signals; and - provide the first control signals to at least one of the material dispenser for controlling a dispensing rate of the wrapping material, and the material dispenser rotational support for controlling rotation of the material dispenser rotational support; characterized in that the wrapping control system further comprises - a second sensor component configured to sense second signals indicating rotational speed for the material dispenser; and - a fifth sensor component configured to sense fifth signals indicating an ejection of the bale to the wrapping table; wherein - the controller is further configured to - receive the second and fifth signals; and - generate the first control signals in response to processing at least one of the first, second and fifth signals.
2. Bale wrapping apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the material dispenser comprises material dispenser rollers configured to dispense the wrapping material. 22
3. Bale wrapping apparatus according to claim 2, wherein - the material dispenser rollers are connected to a dispenser rollers drive having a gear; and - the gear is configured, in response to the first control signals, to provide a geared ratio of rotational speed for rollers of the material dispenser rollers to the dispenser rollers drive.
