Abstract
Baling apparatus including at least two first and second mutually opposed and inclined conveyors, each conveyor having a first end and a second end, the second ends being arranged to be spaced apart to form a material entry region into which material to be baled is, in use, deposited, the first ends being relatively closely adjacent to each other, and the apparatus being arranged such that material deposited into the entry region moves toward a pinch region where the two conveyors are close to one another and where the deposited material is rolled and compressed into a bale, the conveyors being driven in opposite directions to roll and compact the material between them, and the conveyors being mutually displaceable and resiliently biased towards one another.
