Baling press with a rope tying system and method of supplying rope to a knotter of a baling press

摘要

A baling press has feeding structures for feeding rope materials along opposite first and second sides of the pressing channel (101) and one or more knotters on a first side of the pressing channel (101). The or each knotter (139) includes a knot tier for knotting sections of the rope materials in a knotting area to each other, a cutter and a rope holder for holding rope material cut off from the knotted rope sections. The knotting area is closer to the bale pressing channel than the rope holder. A loop supply member is suspended on the first side of the bale pressing channel and has a hook for catching the rope materials and providing loops thereof at the first side. The rope diverter is arranged for urging sections of the rope materials between the hook and the rope holder towards the bale pressing channel (101) into positions extending through the knotting area.
