ABSTRACT:
A combine grain tank has a floor and a pair of fore-and-aft feed augers above the floor for moving grain forwardly along the floor of the tank to a laterally extending trough in the forward end of the floor. A laterally extending discharge auger is mounted in the trough for moving grain laterally along the floor to an auger-type unloading conveyor exteriorly of the grain tank. The discharge auger has constant diameter flighting along its length mounted on an auger tube that has a larger diameter upstream of the point where the feed auger nearest the unloading conveyor feeds grain into the trough.
