ABSTRACT:
A combine conveyor arrangement for transferring clean grain from a cleaning shoe to a grain tank above the shoe comprises two drivably connected screw conveyor legs whose axes lie in a common vertical plane. A unitary housing at their junction provides bearing support for the respective screw conveyors, an enclosure for a pair of bevel gears transmitting power between the two, and a transfer passage for receiving the discharged material from the first leg and conducting it to the second leg. The first leg is substantially horizontal and the second is inclined upwardly and inwardly so that the included angle between the two conveyor legs is substantially less than ninety-degrees, and the transfer passage is offset inwardly and upwardly from the intersection of the conveyor axes.
