Side Tension Rails To Control Bale Length Variation In A Square Bale Chamber
US Patent:
7975607, Jul 12, 2011
Filed:
Mar 5, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/398233
Inventors:
Larry L. Hoover - Landisville PA, US
Stephen W. Jacobs - Lititz PA, US
Stephen W. Jacobs - Lititz PA, US
Assignee:
CNH America LLC - New Holland PA
International Classification:
B30B 9/30
US Classification:
100191
Abstract:
An improved mechanism for controlling the pressure applied by the side walls of a square bale chamber comprising two independently positionable opposing pairs of bale tension rails, each pair perpendicularly arranged with respect to each other, whereby a uniform pressure may be exerted on all four sides of the bale in the bale chamber thereby resulting in improved consistency in bale length, density, shape, and appearance.
Agricultural Baler

Staggered Plunger Tail With Improved Wear Surface For A Small Square Baler
US Patent:
7707932, May 4, 2010
Filed:
May 5, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/435585
Inventors:
Larry L. Hoover - Landisville PA, US
Stephen W. Jacobs - Lititz PA, US
Stephen W. Jacobs - Lititz PA, US
Assignee:
CNH America LLC - New Holland PA
International Classification:
B30B 1/00, B30B 15/06
US Classification:
100179, 100 98 R, 100215, 100245, 100295
Abstract:
An improved mechanism for controlling the orientation of a plunger in a bale chamber of a small square baler that positions the lower plunger tail guide further from the working surface of the plunger than the upper plunger tail guide in order to better resist the rocking forces of the plunger in the bale chamber thereby improving the capability of the plunger guides to maintain proper plunger knife clearances and improving the durability of the bearing materials in the plunger guides.
Current Sensing Of Actuators On A Round Baler
US Patent:
2014005, Feb 27, 2014
Filed:
Aug 21, 2012
Appl. No.:
13/590645

Assignee:
CNH AMERICA LLC - New Holland PA
International Classification:
B65B 57/00
US Classification:
53461, 53 52
Abstract:
Monitoring current draw of an actuator associated with a rotating arm on a round baler during a net wrapping cycle is used to determine the position of the rotating arm and actuator, as well as to determine the net tension. The current draw of the actuator may be correlated with the home and insert positions of the rotating arm during the net wrapping cycle; thus by monitoring the current draw, the rotating arm and actuator position is determined and may be provided to aid an operator. The net tension during the net wrapping cycle is a function of the rotating arm and actuator current. A calculation of net tension is determined and provided to an operator, allowing the operator to verify performance issues related to the net tension.
Torsion Bar Activated Round Baler Kicker
US Patent:
7047876, May 23, 2006
Filed:
Feb 28, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/789677
Inventors:
Larry L. Hoover - Landisville PA, US
Assignee:
CNH America LLC - New Holland PA
International Classification:
B30B 5/04
US Classification:
100 87, 100100, 56341
Abstract:
A bale kicker for a round baler that employs an adjustable torsion bar, or bars, to impart a rearward force to an exiting bale to ensure that the completed bale is clear of the baler.
