Embodiment Construction

[0054] Although the invention will be described with reference to its application in cotton processing, those skilled in the art will appreciate that the components described below in accordance with the various embodiments may be suitable for use in other applications.

[0055] figure 1 A side view of the conveyor belt processing system 1 is shown with the bales 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 and 7 advancing along the first conveyor belt 8 towards the device 17 . Typically, bales of roundseed cotton, also described as modules, are packed using a plastic sheath that is tightly wrapped around the modules, usually leaving open ends. Roundseed cotton modules can weigh up to three tons, so mechanical devices must be used to handle the modules. When wrapping the module, the seed cotton is surrounded under the action of circumferential compressive force caused by the tension in the plastic sheath. The round seed cotton modules are generally cylindrical so that the plastic sheath forms the wall...

Abstract

An assembly for enabling the release of produce from a module retained by a plastics sleeve. The apparatus comprises a primary support frame including legs fixed to ground surface via feet. A gantry supports a compression assembly capable of receiving and retaining a module. There are means to enable the compression assembly to move between a non working state in which the compression assembly is elevated above a work station and a working state in which the compression assembly is at a work station in which compression arms are capable of retaining a produce module. The compression assembly includes means to enable the arms to apply a radial force to the module sufficient to allow the compression assembly to remove the plastics sleeve and allow the produce to gravitate through a free end of the module as the plastics sleeve is elevated away from the produce.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the processing of modules of produce in agriculture, and more particularly to assemblies and methods for processing modules containing products such as, but not limited to, seed cotton. The invention also relates to an assembly capable of removing seed cotton from a seed cotton module covered with a plastic sheath. The present invention also relates to a method and apparatus capable of removing the plastic sheath from the seed cotton module and allowing the release of the seed cotton for further processing. [0002] The present invention also provides an apparatus for receiving and retaining a seed cotton module and facilitating removal of the seed cotton from a plastic sheath that captures the seed cotton. The invention also relates to a method of processing a seed cotton module to enable said device to remove the plastic sheath. [0003] The invention also relates to a device for processing cylindrical seed cotton mod...
