Abstract
A hanger for supporting an auger conveyor tube in a given angular position is provided. The hanger comprises a hanger element defining a hole for receiving the conveyor tube, and a number of recesses communicating with the tube hole. Each recess is adapted to mate with a tube flange, so as to locate the tube and a feed drop-out aperture in any of a first series of angularly discrete positions. A series of attachment holes at the hanger element top permit the hanger to be attached to support structure in any one of a second series of angularly discrete positions. In this way, a multiple series of angular positions is provided, so that the conveyor tube may be located in virtually any desired angular orientation.
