Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a baling apparatus that includes a baling chamber. The baling chamber is configure to receive material to be baled. Material to be baled can be compressed into the baling chamber. Adjacent to the baling chamber is a set of baling guides configured to guide baling ties. Each baling guide has an entrance and an exit, such that the baling tie enters and exits the baling guide some distance apart and at the same wall of the baling chamber.

A baling apparatus comprising:
- a housing defining a baling chamber by at least one wall;
- a ram comprising a ram wall parallel to the at least one wall, wherein the ram wall is configured to compress material to be baled into the baling chamber;
- and
- a set of baling guides adjacent to the baling chamber,
- wherein each baling guide in the set of baling guides includes an entrance at the at least one wall, a first corner, a back portion spaced from the at least one wall, a second corner, a bottom portion located below a bottom wall of the baling chamber, and an exit at the at least one wall spaced from the entrance, wherein the entrance and the exit extend through the at least one wall, and wherein a bale tie entering the baling guide through the at least one wall via the entrance with an entrance force, passes through the first corner, the back portion, the second corner, the bottom portion and the exit of the baling guide by the entrance force for tying at the at least one wall.
