Abstract

An agricultural wagon having a plurality of load sensors between a tow bar and a chassis. The load sensors are configured to sense the load of the wagon. The load sensors may sense the load of the wagon when it is supported on a tow coupling or on a stand. The agricultural wagon also has a collapsible cross conveyor, a lift-out tail gate and plastic hungry boards. The direction in which the cross conveyor feeds out material can be automatically selected based on the position or movement of the cross conveyor.

Abstract

A bale spreader having a chassis, one or more feed conveyors mounted to the chassis and a spreader rotor mounted to the chassis. The feed conveyor(s) are configured to transport material from a bale along a feed path. During spreading, the spreader rotor receives the material from the feed path and the axis of the spreader rotor is higher than the feed path. The spreader rotor can be movable between a first position in the feed path and second position not in the feed path. The spreader rotor can be driven by a belt. The feed conveyor(s) may be a plurality of feed drums. One of the feed drums can have teeth that extend between flails of the spreader rotor in use. The flails can rotate with their broad sides forwards. The spreader can also have a conveyor platform for round bales and another platform for square bales that can be placed over the conveyor platform.

Abstract

A bedding attachment for evenly distributing bedding material. A housing defines a passageway with a plurality of rotating paddles in the passageway which draw material into the passageway and eject it via an outlet. The distance between the housing and the outer periphery of the paddles is between 5-40mm. A grill may be provided on the side of the housing adjacent the inlet that may be positioned so that paddles partially project through the grill to engage a bale positioned against the grill.

Abstract

This invention relates to bale feeders and bale feeder drums. A lower drum and an upper drum have inter-engaging teeth which grip feed from a bale as they rotate. Lower bale feeder drum has inclined paddles and/or paddles with a tapering profile. The configuration of the paddles helps centralize bales during the feeding process, and helps to break up and stretch feed. The tapering profile of the paddles improves grip of feed by teeth on the drums.
