English term or phrase: Auger swing crossover
Hi all,

this is from a list of combine harvester parts.
The full term in the list is "auger swing crossover, in" which I interprete as "crossover auger swing, inwards motion".
I have translated "auger swing", which occurs elsewhere in the list as "Scheckenschwinge", however I am unclear what an "crossover auger" is and how to translate it.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

The cross feeding auger which is 17 3/4 inches (the largest in the industry) ensures an optimum feeding of the harvest material within the combine.

Hi,
unter "swing auger" finden sich vergleichbare Geräte in der Google-Bildersuche. Am Mähdrescher ist nur eine Schnecke schwenkbar - das Abtankrohr.
