A block baling press has a bale chamber and a baling ram moveable in the bale chamber in an oscillating manner to compress bale material. An end face of the baling ram facing the bale material is divided into ram segments separated from one another by needle slots. At least a first needle slot is flanked by ram segments with a profiling transverse to the first needle slot. The profiling brings about a weaker compression of the bale material in an edge region of the ram segments adjacent to the first needle slot than in a region of the ram segments spaced apart from the first needle slot. Bales are obtained in which zones of high compression and low compression alternate across the width of the bale chamber. The bales are held together by twine placed around the zones having low compression.

A combination of a towing vehicle and an agricultural harvesting machine drawn by the towing machine is provided. The harvesting machine includes at least one working assembly for conveying crop (G), for processing crop (G) or both. The harvesting machine also includes a working connection to the towing vehicle in order to be supplied with drive power by the towing vehicle in order to operate the at least one working assembly and a control device can be operated in a harvesting mode in order to specify a ground speed (v) for the combination depending on ascertained operating parameters of the harvesting machine and the towing vehicle.

A baler is formed with a bale chamber for compressing agricultural crop into bales, at least one knotter for knotting twine wrapped around a finished bale and a twine store having at least one magazine in which the twine rolls for supplying the knotter are accommodated with axes lying on a common line.

Baler

A twine retaining device for a baler includes a retaining disk, which can rotate about a shaft, and a retaining plate, which jointly delimit a retaining gap. The retaining gap is defined by a plurality of constrictions distributed along a twine strand extending through the retaining gap.

A method for operating a baler with a pressing chamber which serves for the pressing of a straw-like crop includes compacting the crop using an adjustable pressing pressure and binding the crop through a holding material. The pressing pressure is limited to a maximum value and controlled through a control circuit. A control circuit reference variable is a load variable of the holding material. The load variable is adjustable and is smaller than or equal to the maximum value.

Baler and method for operating a baler

A bale press includes a pressing channel in which a piston is displaceable for forming a bale from crop material supplied to the pressing channel. The bale press includes a yarn supply and a knotter device arranged at a side of the pressing channel. The knotter device has a first holder for releasably holding an end portion of a yarn, a yarn deflecting member and a knotter beak. The yarn extends between the first holder and the yarn supply across the deflecting member and a side of the bale facing away from the piston. The knotter beak ties a knot in a first stretch of the yarn extending between the first holder and the deflecting member. A second holder holds the yarn at the deflecting member in an initial phase of bale formation.
