AGRICULTURAL BALE ACCUMULATOR AND METHOD THEREFOR

摘要

A load bed extension module (102) expends and supports a bale accumulating capacity of the accumulator (100) along a horizontal axis (202). A bale stacking module (332) expands a bale accumulating capacity of the accumulator (100) along a vertical axis (203). A bale advancement module (798) advances a fully formed bale onto a load bed (113) ahead of a successive bale to create a predetermined space (808) between the bales to permit the fully formed bale to be handled by the accumulator (100) in an amount of time before the successive bale travels through the predetermined space (808). A bale arrangement control module (830) permits a dynamic arrangement of bales to be accumulated on the accumulator (100) within a bale accumulating capacity of the accumulator.
