Farm implement with folding auger

A farm implement comprising:

• a frame;
• a container mounted on the frame and comprising a front wall, a rear wall, and laterally opposed side walls arranged such that the container defines a space for holding grain;
• a hitch extending away from the front wall in a first direction;
• and
• an auger assembly extending away from the front wall and configured to receive grain held in the container and convey the grain out of the container, wherein the auger assembly comprises:
• a receiving auger portion disposed proximate to the front wall;
• a lower auger portion comprising a lower auger housing extending along a longitudinal axis of the lower auger portion from a first end to a second end, wherein the first end of the lower auger housing is operatively connected to the receiving auger portion;
• an upper auger portion comprising an upper auger housing extending along a longitudinal axis of the upper auger portion from a first end to a second end;
• a joint assembly coupled to the upper and lower auger portions and defining a folding axis, wherein the upper auger portion is configured to pivot about the folding axis between a transport position and an operating position such that the first end of the upper auger housing abuts the second end of the lower auger housing in the operating position, and the first end of the upper auger housing is spatially separated from the second end of the lower auger housing in the transport position;
• and
• a discharge portion coupled to the second end of the upper auger housing;
• wherein the lower auger portion is angled toward the hitch relative to a vertical plane extending transverse to a direction of travel by the farm implement such that a centerline of the lower auger portion is oriented at a first angle relative to the vertical plane;
• wherein the lower auger portion is angularly offset from the upper auger portion such that the centerline of the lower auger portion is oriented at a second angle relative to a centerline of the upper auger portion.
