Abstract
A combined baler/bale wrapper () comprises a chassis () on which a baler () and a bale wrapper () are mounted. The baler () comprises a stationary segment (), a lower segment () and an upper segment () which together define a bale forming chamber () within which a round bale () is formed. The lower segment () and the upper segment () are pivotal from a bale forming position (FIG.) to a discharge position (FIG.) for transferring a bale of the bale forming chamber () onto bale supporting rollers () of the bale wrapper (). The bale supporting rollers () rotate the bale () about a first wrapping axis () while a carrier ring () simultaneously revolves a pair of wrapping material dispensers () about a second wrapping axis () for dispensing wrapping material onto the bale ().
