Abstract
An auger conveyor for granular material or grain has a discharge outlet portion which pivotally supports a tubular inner spout section of a telescoping spout assembly. The inner spout section is pivoted by a remotely controlled actuator between an outwardly projecting upper discharge position and a downwardly projecting lower discharge position. The assembly includes an outer tubular spout section supported by the inner spout section for telescoping movement on the inner spout section, and an actuator in the form of an elongated link member pivotally connects the outer spout section to the conveyor outlet portion to produce the telescoping movement of the outer spout section in response to pivoting of the inner spout section. The spout assembly maintains a substantially constant vertical height while moving between the upper and lower discharge positions to avoid interference with a container receiving the grain.
