ABSTRACT:
The machine employs a vertically oriented bale-starting chamber and a crop pickup located immediately below such chamber so that materials lifted from the ground by the pickup as the machine advances are fed directly up into the starting chamber to be acted upon by front and rear sets of oppositely moving, vertically disposed belts. A throat area at the bottom of the starting chamber and above the pickup is devoid of compression rollers and other like structure that would squeeze and compress the upwardly fed materials into a mat so that unencumbered free flow of materials up into the starting chamber is assured. A special bale-positioning roll adjacent the bottom of the chamber keeps the bale from riding against belts wrapped around a forward roll so that materials are not wedged in a pinch point where the belts contact the forward roller, and special projections on the forward roller clean out the area just above the latter so as to avoid the accumulation of trash material therein. Specially mounted bearings on the exterior of the sidewalls of the machine prevent wrapping of crop material at the ends of the rolls and premature bearing failure.
