Endless annular baler belt made of rubber or rubber-like materials
An annular baler for agricultural use includes at least one annular baler belt made of rubber or rubber-like materials with an embedded core defining a reinforcement. The annular baler belt has ventilation bores which are distributed in a regular or irregular pattern around the periphery thereof and extend through the annular baler belt.
1. An endless annular baler belt comprising:
an embedded core defining a reinforcement; and,
said endless annular baler belt having a plurality of venting bores distributed over the periphery thereof and extending through the annular baler belt.
2. The endless annular baler belt as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the venting bores are arranged in an ordered matrix.
3. The endless annular baler belt as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the venting bores are arranged one behind the other on a line running over the periphery.
4. The endless annular baler belt as claimed in claim 3 , wherein a parallel running peripheral series of holes are distributed over a width of the annular baler belt.
5. The endless annular baler belt as claimed in claim 3 , wherein a spacing of holes of the venting bores from one another in the running direction is of from 10 to 50 mm.
6. The endless annular baler beat as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the venting bores are arranged in irregular distribution over the periphery of the annular baler belt.
7. The endless annular baler belt as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the diameter of the venting bores is of from 2 to 7 mm.
8. The endless annular baler belt as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the baler belt is made of rubber.
9. The endless annular baler belt as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the reinforcement is made of a fabric.
10. A continuous annular baler belt comprising:
an outer rubber layer defining an outer periphery;
an inner rubber layer;
a core defining a reinforcement and being embedded between said outer and inner layers; and,
a plurality of venting bores distributed over said outer periphery and extending through all of said layers.
11. The continuous annular baler belt of claim 10 , wherein said reinforcement is made of a fabric.
