Seed sorting equipment and method and seed activity detecting device

Abstract

The invention discloses a seed activity detecting device. The device comprises a rotatable turnplate, an activity detecting mechanism and a control system, wherein the turnplate is used for driving to-be-detected seeds to rotate to a preset detecting position, so that the activity states of the to-be-detected seeds are detected; the activity detecting mechanism is matched with the turnplate and used for obtaining spectral information data of the to-be-detected seeds on the turnplate; and the control system is connected with the turnplate and the activity detecting mechanism, and used for controlling the turnplate to rotate and controlling the activity detecting mechanism to start and stop. The invention further discloses seed sorting equipment comprising the seed activity detecting deviceand a seed sorting method. According to the seed activity detecting device, on the premise that the seeds are not damaged, the activity of the seeds can be effectively recognized, the seeds can be stored easily after being detected, and meanwhile, the problems that manual recognition is low in efficiency and low in recognition success rate can be effectively solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of optical detection, in particular to a seed activity detection device. The present invention also relates to a seed sorting device and method comprising the above-mentioned seed activity detection device. Background technique [0002] At present, in terms of seed viability detection, there are mainly two common methods: blister germination method and embryo observation method. The water bubble germination method is to germinate the seeds to be tested in water, and then to screen the seed activity by observing the germination shape. After the seeds germinate, they must be planted in soil immediately, otherwise the seeds will die, which is not conducive to preservation; the germ observation method is to put the seeds The shell of the seed is peeled off, and the germ is observed by spectroscopic technology to judge the activity of the seed. After observation by this method, the shell of the seed has been des...

Problems solved by technology

The water bubble germination method is to germinate the seeds to be tested in water, and then to screen the seed activity by observing the germination shape. After the seeds germinate, they must be planted in soil immediately, otherwise the seeds will die, which is not conducive to preservation; the germ observation method is to put the seeds The shell of the seed is peeled off, and the germ is observed by spectroscopic technology to judge the activity of the seed. After observation by this method, the shell of the seed has been destroyed and cannot be preserved.

The detection work of the above two methods is often done manually, which will lead to long time-consuming work, a large amount of repetitive work, improper handling of artificial damage to the seeds and thus affect the detection results and other problems.

[0003] Therefore, how to avoid damage to seeds due to traditional seed activity detection and the inability to preserve seeds is a technical problem currently to be solved by those skilled in the art
