Telescopic twine arm for round baler twine wrapping apparatus

摘要

Twine wrapping apparatus for a round baler having a bale forming chamber with a generally transverse crop infeed opening. The apparatus is mounted forward of the opening and includes an extendable twine arm for dispensing twine into the chamber to wrap bales formed therein. A coupling mechanism provides controlled swinging movement of the arm through a predetermined path that originates in the middle of the opening. The twine arm is in its outermost extended condition at the initiation of the twine dispensing phase and retracts as it travels along its path to a generally transverse rest position.
