A rotor assembly that has a support tube having a first diameter, at least one tooth coupled to the support tube, wherein the tooth rotates with the support tube to direct crop toward a chamber, and an undershot auger having an auger flight extending radially away from an auger core, the auger flight configured to cause the crop to flow towards a bale chamber region of the rotor assembly when rotation of the rotor assembly causes the crop to flow under the rotor assembly. Wherein, the auger core has a second diameter that is greater than the first diameter.

Baler rotor feeding apparatus

A baffle float system for a baler is provided. The baffle float system includes a pair of first pivot arms configured to pivotally couple to a frame of the baler and to a cross-member. The first pivot arms pivot about a first pivot axis. The baffle float system includes a baffle coupled to the cross-member. The baffle float system includes a pair of second pivot arms having a first end coupled to the cross-member and a second end. The baffle float system includes a compressor rack coupled to the second end of each of the second pivot arms such that the compressor rack pivots relative to the second end along a second pivot axis. The second pivot axis is different than the first pivot axis. The baffle float system includes at least one biasing member coupled to the compressor rack so as to be offset from the second pivot axis.
