Definitions

  • the present invention relates in general to the sector of packing of articles used in agriculture, and in particular it relates to a new and useful packing for rolls of a netwrap intended to be used on an agricultural packing machine, called roundbaler, for forming round bales, in particular of hay, straw or any other crop.
  • the present invention relates also to a practical and advantageous process for the packing of netwrap rolls intended to be used in a roundbaler for forming bales, rolled and pressed, in particular of hay, straw or any other crop.
  • Roundbalers are machines widely used in agriculture to form and pack round bales, for instance of hay, and in general of any grass and forage or other crops to be processed by these machines.
  • these roundbalers are equipped with specific mechanisms adapted to collect from the ground a certain quantity of hay or other crop and for wrapping around it, after it has been compressed, a netwrap, so as to form a bale, generally cylindrical, in which the hay is pressed and held together by the netwrap that is wrapped around the outer cylindrical surface of the bale.
  • This netwrap is in turn constituted by a product in HDPE (polyethylene) extruded and then woven so as to form a netwrap, wound in a roll, which is arranged in the round baler, in order to be wrapped on the bale of hay, straw, or other forage or corn stalks collected from the ground.
  • HDPE polyethylene
  • these rolls consisting of the rolled netwrap and provided to be positioned in the roundbaler, where, as before illustrated, they will be used to wrap the final bale at the end of the pressing operation, are packed by using a tubular film of polyethylene or cardboard boxes.
  • Figure 4 shows in a schematic way one of these rolls, indicated in the whole with ROT and containing in a wound form a netwrap R for use in a roundbaler, which netwrap roll is packed in accordance with the conventional technique.
  • the roll ROT is inserted into a tubular bag S, of polyethylene, with the ends in excess of this tubular bag S of polyethylene that are folded and inserted inside the tube or core of cardboard, on which the netwrap R is wound, and that are fixed on the ends of this tube by using for example caps T of plastic material, or by other means.
  • the netwrap roll ROT may be provided externally with real handles M, also of plastic material, which are applied externally to the tubular bag S of polyethylene, in order to facilitate the handling of the same roll ROT.
  • this packing whereas the roll ROT is stored in an external environment, can be at the origin of serious problems and drawbacks, particularly related to the penetration of water or in any case of moisture, that can compromise the use of the same roll, and for example of problems related to the deformation of the tube of cardboard on which the netwrap R is wound, also due to the poor water resistance of the cardboard tube.
  • a primary object the present invention is to provide a new and useful packing, for rolls of netwrap provided to be used on an agricultural machine of the type of a roundbaler, which packing exhibits significant improvements with respect to the packing that are already known and presently adopted in this field, and in particular involves an easy, quick and easy removal of it in the phase of the unpacking of the roll, and also it is such as to ensure effective protection of the roll over time from atmospheric agents, such as humidity.
  • a further object of the present invention is to provide a process, for packing netwrap rolls for round balers, which is associated with tangible advantages, in particular by making more practical and faster the stage of the unpacking of the roll, by giving an effective protection over time of the same roll from pollution and environmental factors, and by producing a single waste item, so as to limit the dispersion of wastes into the environment.
  • the new packing in accordance with the present invention, for netwrap rolls for a roundbaler, is associated with numerous and important advantages, at least in part already implicitly previously announced, among which there are cited purely by way of the following :
  • Figure 1 shows schematically a roll, indicated as a whole with 10, which has a packing according to a first embodiment of the present invention.
  • the roll 10 is formed by a net or netwrap R that is intended to be used by an agricultural packing machine, consisting of a roundbaler, for the formation of bales B, for example of hay, such as shown in Fig 3 , rolled and pressed, whereby this roll 10 is briefly also called in the following netwrap roll for roundbalers.
  • the netwrap R in turn is formed, preferably, by HDPE (High Density PolyEthylene), extruded and then knitted, to form a net consisting of a series of threads F having appropriate characteristics of strength and elasticity.
  • HDPE High Density PolyEthylene
  • the bales B are formed and packed, by means of the roundbaler, picking up from the ground a certain mass of hay, or in general any other grass cut and dried, rolling up this mass to form a round bale, and finally wrapping on the cylindrical outer surface of the bale thus obtained the netwrap R, in turn picked up and unwound by a respective roll positioned and arranged in the same roundbaler.
  • the final bale B thus formed by the roundbaler, presents a good firmness and stability, since the mass of hay, in addition to be suitably pressed in the bale B, is also held together by the netwrap R wrapped on the outside of the same bale B.
  • the netwrap roll 10 for roundbalers is packed using a film 12 preferably of polyethylene, which is wrapped on the outside of a roll containing, in wound or rolled form, the netwrap R which will be subsequently unwound out and used , in the roundbaler, to form the bale B, as before explained.
  • the polyethylene film 12 forms a wrapper or envelope or bag, indicated with 11, which surrounds the roll formed by the netwrap R.
  • a film of adhesive or glue 13 preferably of the type adapted to melt when hot, usually called with the expression "hot melt”, is applied, using a suitable applicator, on one or both flaps or edges 14 of the polyethylene film 12, so as to close and seal the wrapper or envelope 11 on the cylindrical surface of the roll formed by the netwrap R, preferably while leaving the excess or surplus of film, in the form of a strip, that is necessary to facilitate the removal of the packing by grasping and pulling out such strip.
  • edge 14 of the polyethylene film 12, on which it is applied the film of glue 13 extends linearly along the outer surface of the roll, parallel to the axis of the latter.
  • Such a mode of closure, with a gluing or bonding along the edge 14 of the polyethylene film 12, has the considerable advantage of making the opening of the wrapper 11 extremely easy, at the time of the unpacking of the roll 10.
  • these exceeding extremities 12' of the polyethylene film 12 may be thermo-retracted or inserted at the inside of the cardboard so as to line up and make them fully adhering to the sides of the roll 10.
  • two bands or straps 16, preferably of polypropylene, which serve as handles, are suitably welded or fixed transversely to the roll 10, thereby each forming a ring about it, and placed in a suitable manner to the cylindrical surface of the wrapper 11 so as to ensure their proper placement.
  • Figure 2 shows in a schematic way a roll, indicated as a whole with 20, which has a packing in accordance with a second embodiment of the present invention.
  • the roll 20, packed differs from the roll 10 of the first embodiment in that it has, in place and as an alternative to the bonding preferably of the type "hot melt", a continuous welding line 22, which is realized in a known manner by a welding operation on the polyethylene film 12 that surrounds the outer surface of the roll formed by the netwrap R, so as to close the wrapper or bag 21 on this roll.
  • a continuous welding line 22 which is realized in a known manner by a welding operation on the polyethylene film 12 that surrounds the outer surface of the roll formed by the netwrap R, so as to close the wrapper or bag 21 on this roll.
  • this second embodiment of the packing there are provided welding areas on the surplus lateral portions 12', of the polyethylene film 12, folded on the sides of the roll 20, so as to ensure a complete seal of the same roll from the external environment.
  • a pre-cut line indicated with 23, extended longitudinally along the cylindrical surface of the roll 20 and also possibly along the respective sides, which has the function of favoring the cutting and opening of the wrapper 21 at the time of unpacking the roll 20.
  • the present invention fully achieves the purposes it had set, and in particular provides a new and useful packing for netwrap rolls for roundbalers which, in addition to imply an easy and rapid removal of the same packing at the time of the actual usage of the netwrap roll, also ensures a complete sealing and effective protection over time of the netwrap roll for roundbalers from any pollution and environmental factor.
