Abstract: An auger for a conveyor comprising an elongated shaft capable of extending along a curvilinear axis, a flexible, rotatable tube telescoped over the shaft and an elongated helical vane of flexible material extending outwardly from the tube. In a typical embodiment, the auger is used with a housing closed along one side with an upright wall and a wall extending downwardly at an angle into relatively close proximity to the auger. The bottom and the other side of the housing comprise spaced apart, elongated rods which support the assembly and permit gravitation of trash from the conveyor. An elongated, rotatable hose above the auger serves to deflect conveyed items toward the closed side of the conveyor for proper transfer by the auger and a shield maintains the conveyed items in proper location with respect to the auger.
