Zusammenfassung:A header for a combine harvester comprises an auger (7) for transporting harvested crops from the sides of the header to the centre. The auger is rotatably supported at the location of the sidewalls (3) of the header, and comprises a first and second helicoidal flight (9,10) on either side of the header's centre. The auger is rotatably supported at at least one additional, out-of-centre location of the header. For this purpose, the auger is split into at least two parts (7a,7b), coupled together and rotatably supported at the out-of-centre location. One of the helicoidal flights is equally split in a flight portion (9a) upstream of the coupling and a flight portion (9b) downstream thereof. The upstream and downstream flight portions are provided with guide elements (20,21) arranged between the respective extremities of the flight portions (9a,9b) and the coupling.
