ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for forming a bale of hay has a wheeled frame that spans a windrow of hay and is moved forwardly therealong, a baling chamber on the frame which receives the windrow as the apparatus is moved along, and means in the chamber for forming the windrow into a spiral bale as the apparatus is moved. A pair of disks are rotatably mounted in the sides of the baling chamber near the rear of the chamber, and the diameter of the disks is a major fraction of the diameter of a finished bale. Endless means which is part of the bale forming means has a lower bale rolling run the sides of which are supported on the disks. The rearward part of the endless means is nearly vertical, and no other part of the endless means contacts the forming bale until after the diameter of the bale is equal to that of the disks, so the bale has a relatively loose core and a firmly packed exterior, and the sides of the bale are relatively smooth and even from being confined between the disks.
