Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim 121 words
The method of baling paper products wherein the paper products are compressed into a bale to form a plurality of layers comprising the steps of compressing paper products in a first direction to form a parcel of compressed paper products in a compression zone having layers substantially perpendicularly disposed to said first direction with said parcel as initially disposed in said zone being in a state of maximum compression, reducing the compression of said parcel while in said zone a predetermined amount, then transferring said parcel in its state of reduced compression from said zone to a strapping station in a direction substantially parallel to said layers and strapping said parcel into a bale as it is transferred from said zone.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 121 words
The method of baling paper products wherein the paper products are compressed into a bale to form a plurality of layers comprising the steps of compressing paper products in a first direction to form a parcel of compressed paper products in a compression zone having layers substantially perpendicularly disposed to said first direction with said parcel as initially disposed in said zone being in a state of maximum compression, reducing the compression of said parcel while in said zone a predetermined amount, then transferring said parcel in its state of reduced compression from said zone to a strapping station in a direction substantially parallel to said layers and strapping said parcel into a bale as it is transferred from said zone.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 27 words
The method as defined in claim 1 wherein said reduction in compression is accomplished by permitting said parcel to expand in said first direction a predetermined amount.
