Twine storage and dispensing box and agricultural baler

摘要

A twine box (60) is provided for an agricultural baler (10). The twine box permits ready access to twine balls (80) housed therein because all twine balls are located on a single row or tier. The twine balls are not compartmentalized and thus relocation of them within groups (82) is facilitated. Twine ball separators (72) are employed to secure, locate and separate twine balls when the baler is operating. The twine ball separators may serve to maintain twine balls in a staggered configuration whereby it is possible to house a greater number of twine balls in a given space. The twine ball separators do not interfere with the movement of twine balls within the twine box during reloading of twine. The single row twine box allows the baler operator to access the twine balls from the ground and permits moving of twine balls without needing to cut and retie twine.
