A wheel supported wagon includes a gravity discharge container or hopper for directing grain, feed, dry fertilizer or other granular material into a receiving box mounted on the side of the hopper. An inclined elongated auger unit includes a tubular conduit enclosing a hydraulically driven auger, and the lower end portion of the conduit has an inwardly projecting and upwardly curved annular upper flange. The flange seats on a downwardly projecting and outwardly curved lower flange forming part of an annular auger support member projecting downwardly from the material receiving box. The mating flanges provide for rotating the auger unit on a vertical axis and also for tilting the auger unit in a vertical plane at any selected rotational position.

Auger unit for a granular material transport wagon

A wagon for transporting grain and other particulate matter. The wagon is adapted to be attached to a tow vehicle. The wagon has a container which is provided with a forward wall. Within the container is a conduit. The conduit has a part which protrudes outwardly from the container and forwardly from the forward wall. Within the conduit is an auger. Pivotally attached to the part of the conduit which extends outwardly from the forward wall is a conduit extension member. The conduit extension member is pivotally movable to a position extending from the forward wall. Within the conduit extension member is an auger extension member. The auger extension member is operatively connected to the auger when the conduit extension member extends from the forward wall. Thus, a condition is established for discharging grain from the container of the wagon. The conduit extension member is pivotally movable to a position closely adjacent the forward wall. Thus, a condition is established for movement of the wagon upon a highway. The conduit extension member is thus always positioned for observation by the operator of the tow vehicle.

Grain wagon with unload mechanism

A gravity type box for a farm wagon, in which the box has a single opening and provides either side or center delivery of flowable material from the box. The opening in the box is in a lower portion thereof and is closed by a sliding door. Two chutes are attached to the box adjacent the opening. The chutes are arranged so that grain flowing from the box through the opening is discharged from either one of the chutes. One chute is adapted to discharge flowable material from the box toward a position below the box, and the other chute is adapted to discharge flowable material from the box to a position at the side of the box.
