Abstract:
An accessory (1) for collecting and storing bales (B) of compacted loose material formed by a baling machine comprises a frame (2) extending from an entry end (2a) for the bales (B) to a distal end (2b), to define an accumulation channel in which the bales (B) of compacted loose material are contained and guided. Advantageously, the accumulation channel for the bales (B) has a first curvilinear section extending from the entry end (2), in which it receives a plurality of bales (B) in a corresponding curvilinear arrangement.
Abstract:
An apparatus for producing pellets comprises a pelletizing chamber (3) with an inlet. The chamber (3) includes a die (7) having a wall with holes (8) for extruding pellets and presser means operably associated with said die (7) for pressing the bulk material to be pelletized out of said pelletizing chamber (3) through the holes (8) of said die (7). Advantageously, the presser means include a drum (9) which fits into the die (7) with a certain clearance to move towards/away from the holes (8), with drive means operating on the drum (9) to cause it to move within and relative to the die (7).
