Turret system on a bubble-up auger for an agricultural combine

摘要

A rotating bubble-up auger of an agricultural combine harvester having a fixed, lower auger assembly receiving a grain from a clean grain elevator. The rotating upper auger assembly is connected by a roller assembly to the lower auger assembly. A handle controls movement of the upper auger assembly. The operator lifts a spring-biased pin upwards and can rotate the assembly manually. Another option allows for the use of an electric motor that drives a worm gear. The worm gear contacts a series of collar teeth on an upper auger collar positioned on the upper auger assembly.
