ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for handling large round bales or the like includes a mobile frame adapted for movement across a field and a bed assembly mounted thereon. The bed assembly includes a plurality of elongated, laterally spaced rails capable of being disposed in an inclined position with respect to the frame in which forward ends of the rails are disposed adjacent the field. A flexible endless conveyor chain is movably mounted on and along each rail and has bale-engaging lugs moving along a path extending along and above an upper side of each rail and around and beyond the forward end of each rail for delivering a bale or the like from the field to the forward ends of the rails when the rails are disposed in the inclined position. A ground engaging element is attached to and extends along and below each forward rail end for supporting the rail end above the field. Each element has an opening therethrough for allowing passage of the chain and lugs and engagement of the lug with the field for facilitating insertion of the rail end under the bale as the apparatus is moved across the field in the direction of the bale.
