ABSTRACT:
A flattened end portion of flighting is added to the conventional auger flighting at the output end of an auger separator. A plug zone is created in the inner perforated tube between the flattened flighting and pressure end gates, which normally close the inner tube. The auger shaft extends beyond the flattened flighting to the end of the inner tube, forming a stub shaft which centers the auger in the inner tube when the plug zone is filled with material around the stub shaft. The material functions as a bearing to center the auger shaft. The material in the plug zone is pressed against the perforated inner tube, causing the bonded water to be removed. The flattened end portion flighting extends circumferentially approximately 70.degree. to 80.degree. around the auger shaft, adding an axial length of approximately 1/4 to 3/8 inch.
