ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for rolling large bales of fodder has a wheeled frame adapted to be towed behind a farm tractor. A baling chamber has a floor with fodder conveyor chains carried in recessed channels so that only fodder engaging lugs are above the floor and the weight of the forming bale is carried by the floor. The floor pivots in the baler frame. The sides of the baling chambers are defined by rotating raddle guide discs which support the ends of raddles on baling raddle chains that define the rear, top and front of the baling chamber. The raddle guide members have circular raddle confining plates, and on the inner faces of the plates are raddle supporting flanges the diameter of which is substantially less than the diameter of the confining plates, so the raddles move outwardly for a substantial distance due to pressure of the forming bale while a relatively thick outer part of the bale is held between the confining plates of the rotating raddle guide discs. Bale formation is improved by running the baling raddle chains slightly faster than the conveyor chains.
