A crop cutting device including a crop guiding surface including parallel slots. A row of knives pivotally mounted below the guiding surface is pivotable between a retracted inoperative position in which it is located below the guiding surface and an extended operative position, wherein the knives project above the guiding surface. An actuating mechanism includes movable operating members. Each operating member is associated with a respective knife and is movable from a first position in which the knife is in its retracted position to a second position in which the knife is in its extended position. Further, there is included a lifting mechanism for raising at least a part of each knife above the guiding surface, while the operating members are in their first position.

Crop cutting device, agricultural machine comprising such crop cutting device and knife removal method

A crop cutting device including a crop guiding surface, a plurality of parallel knives, and an actuating mechanism for moving the knives between a retracted inoperative position below the crop guiding surface and an extended operative position. A portion of the knives projects above the crop guiding surface. A plurality of movable operating members is associated with respective ones of the plurality of knives and movable from a first position in which the knives are in the retracted inoperative position, to a second position in which the knives are in the extended operative position. A support frame holds the operating members in a sliding relation to the support frame. The knife insert assistant is coupled to the support frame and configured for blocking a sliding movement of the operating members relative to the support frame during a movement of the support frame from the retracted position to the employed position.

Rotor knife insert assistant

A cutting unit includes: a plurality of knives; a knife guard with at least one opening; a knife tray carrying the knives and movable between an exposed position where the knives extend through the at least one opening and a retracted position where the knives are shielded by the knife guard; and an overload protection assembly including a first slide member coupled to the knife tray and having a first engagement surface and a second slide member having a second engagement surface that is engaged with the first engagement surface. The first slide member and the second slide member are held together and slidable relative to one another such that the first slide member slides relative to the second slide member to move the knife tray from the exposed position to the retracted position when an overload force is applied to at least one of the knives.

Agricultural baler with knife overload mitigating system

A bale chamber for an agricultural baler includes a plurality of rolls; a plurality of belts wrapped around the rolls; a movable serpentine arm in contact with the belts and configured to move responsively to lifting by at least one of the belts; and a plurality of tensioning arms, each of the tensioning arms being forced against a respective one of the belts and independently movable relative to the other tensioning arms. Each tensioning arm is configured to move against and reduce slack in its respective belt as the serpentine arm moves out of contact with its respective belt.

Agricultural baler with independent tensioning arms

The bale wrapping assembly for a round baler includes at least one twine inserter coupled to a drive. The drive is configured to drive the at least one twine inserter along a movement trajectory to intermittently introduce one or more twines into an outer circumferential surface of a completed bale. The one or more twines are positioned at the at least one twine inserter.

Bale wrapping assembly for a round baler

An agricultural baler for producing rectangular bales, provided with a baling chamber and reciprocating plunger and a bale length control system for producing bales of substantially equal length, and with a bale-eject system for evacuating the last bales from the chamber at the end of a harvesting run. The baler according to the invention is provided with one or more sensors configured to detect the activation of said bale-eject system, and configured to automatically reset said bale-length control system, when said sensors detect said activation.
