DUAL AUGER GRAIN CART WITH ADJUSTABLE FORWARD REACH
A cart for transporting and conveying agricultural materials is provided. The cart includes a frame; a set of wheels or tracks coupled with said frame; and a hitch assembly coupled with said frame to allow the cart to be towed on the wheels or tracks behind a tow vehicle. The cart further includes a hopper defined by a plurality of walls supported by the frame and having a hopper opening to receive agricultural material and a discharge opening for discharging agricultural material. The cart further includes a conveyor assembly coupled to the hopper, the conveyor assembly including an inlet in communication with the discharge opening to receive agricultural material therefrom and an outlet to discharge agricultural material. The conveyor assembly includes a lower conveyor section and an upper conveyor section. The lower conveyor section includes a lower conveyor housing and a lower conveyor extending within the lower conveyor housing and the upper conveyor section including an upper conveyor housing and an upper conveyor extending within the upper conveyor housing. The upper conveyor section is pivotable about a second tilt axis located between said lower and upper conveyor sections and positioned at an acute angle from vertical.

Cart with folding auger having adjustable elevation
A cart having an adjustable elevation auger. A junction box may located within the opening of a sump of a bin of a cart. The junction box may have an open top, closed bottom and sides, and back wall. The back wall of the junction box may be secured to a bin wall by a hinge such that the junction box may pivot about a pivot axis. An auger housing may be connected to and extend from the junction box. An auger may extend through the auger housing and have an intake end disposed within the junction box. The auger housing and auger may pivot with the junction box about a pivot axis between a lowered position and an elevated position. The auger may be a corner auger and may be a folding auger.

Unloading apparatus for dry bulk material
An unloading apparatus is coupled to a dump truck loaded with dry bulk material to quickly unload the truck for return to service. The unloading apparatus is coupled to the outlet of the truck carrying its dry material load, and coupled to a receiver which receives the dry material discharged from the auger as the truck load bed is raised. Compressed air is delivered to the load bed along the sides and outlet to force the dry material dust to the outlet and out of the truck. A vibrator is coupled to the bed of the truck to aid in the discharge of the dry material load.

Crop unloading spouts
A harvesting machine crop unloading spout assembly includes an unloading tube elbow terminating at a first end in a first flange that is secured to the outlet of a harvesting machine crop tank. The first flange includes one or more bearings permitting it to swivel about a swivel axis and the unloading tube elbow includes a cranked portion terminating at a second end in an opening. The spout assembly further includes a fixed member adjacent the unloading tube elbow, the unloading tube elbow connected to the fixed member by way of a pivot the axis of which coincides with the swivel axis. The spout assembly includes a rotatable drive gear and a motor drivingly engaged therewith for causing rotation of the unloading tube elbow about the swivel axis, the axis of rotation of the drive gear also coinciding with the swivel axis.
