Agricultural Conveyance Unit Auger Guide Stems

A guide element is introduced as an intermediary component between the auger and the tooth. This guide element receives the agricultural product from the auger and directs it along its length toward the tooth, preventing the product from striking the lateral surface of the tooth and becoming entangled. The guide element acts as a mediator that transfers the product from the auger's discharge point to the tooth's inlet in a controlled manner.

The solution extends the conveyance system into a new spatial dimension by adding augers and guide elements behind the outer pick-up prongs. The augers are positioned coaxially with the rotation shaft and extend beyond the outermost pick-up prongs, creating a three-dimensional conveyance path that allows products from the extended pick-up width to be directed to appropriate teeth or the chamber inlet.

The pick-up and conveyance system is segmented into multiple functional zones: inner pick-up prongs with associated teeth for direct conveyance, outer pick-up prongs with augers for extended width pickup, and guide elements to direct products from the augers to the chamber inlet. This segmentation allows different portions of the system to perform specialized functions, enabling both wide pick-up and precise chamber inlet alignment.
