Description

Technical Field

[0002] Rice is one of the three major staple foods in my country. Nowadays, with the transfer of rural working-age population, the implementation of land transfer policies and the development of direct seeding technology of rice, mechanized planting has become the main mode of large-scale rice production. Pneumatic seed metering device is an important carrier for realizing mechanized rice planting. Compared with the direct seeding operation process of mechanical seed metering device, its negative pressure seed suction, positive pressure seed blowing operation mode and low seed damage rate have become the main research content for realizing precision rice planting.

[0003] Due to the differences in rice varieties in different regions, it is essential to study the material properties of rice seeds before designing a pneumatic precision seed metering device. In traditional research methods, researchers use the suspension speed of rice seeds as an important basis for research. The critical values ​​of the negative pressure adsorption force and the seed-clearing airflow force required for the pneumatic seed metering device's negative pressure seed suction and positive pressure seed blowing can be calculated through theoretical formulas. However, in the actual operation of the seed metering device, there is still no unified standard to measure and identify the negative pressure adsorption force of seeds during the seed carrying process, the specific adsorption force values ​​at different positions of the negative pressure suction holes of the seed metering device's disc, and the specific blowing force values ​​during the seed cleaning process. In existing research, the determination of actual values ​​is often based on the coupling data of numerical simulation software. Different model calibrations often cause differences in various values. The specific error standards from the actual values ​​are often unable to be given due to the lack of specific measurement tools.

[0043] The operation process of the present invention is:

[0044] Before the test, a suitable rice seed posture adjustment bracket is selected, and the seeds are embedded and fixed in the rice seed posture adjustment bracket. The DC fan bracket 20 and the airflow flowmeter bracket 27 are adjusted so that the airflow outlet of the DC fan 5 and the inlet of the airflow flowmeter 7 are located at the same horizontal plane, and then the airflow conveying pipe 6 is placed in the middle position. Subsequently, the working end 17 of the negative pressure seed suction simulation chamber of the seed metering device is installed at the arc-shaped mouth at the end of the negative pressure seed suction simulation chamber 10 of the seed metering device, and the round tube interface at the front end of the negative pressure seed suction simulation chamber 10 of the seed metering device is connected to the end of the airflow flowmeter 7, and the rice seed posture adjustment bracket 19 is adjusted so that the rice seeds 18 are level with the suction hole end; the high-speed camera bracket 9 is adjusted so that the high-speed camera 8 and the rice seeds 18 are kept at the same level. The position of the lever bracket can be adjusted according to the needs of the actual test to meet the test and measurement requirements of the negative pressure adsorption force and the positive pressure blowing force of the rice seeds.

[0045] After the test starts, the knob of the DC fan flow controller 4 is rotated to adjust the speed of the DC fan 5 to a certain appropriate level according to the digital display value of the airflow flowmeter 7, and then the airflow flowing out of the circular tube interface on the front side of the negative pressure seed suction simulation chamber 10 of the seed planter flows to the DC fan 5 through the airflow conveying pipe 6. At this time, the rice seeds 18 fixed on the rice seed posture adjustment fixing frame at the upper end of the long arm lever 11 are adsorbed by the working suction holes 17 of the working end of the negative pressure seed suction simulation chamber of the seed planter under the action of the negative pressure adsorption force, and then the rice seeds 18 fixed on the rice seed posture adjustment fixing frame of the short arm lever 22 rotate along the opposite direction of movement and collide with the pressure sensor fixed on the lever fixing frame 12 (there is a reserved gap between the pressure sensor and the seeds below), generating instantaneous force and transmitting the generated electrical signal to the pressure sensor control board 14 via the signal line 13, and then transmitted to the computer terminal 16 by the data line 15 after processing and recorded in real time.

[0046] At the same time, the high-speed camera 8 records the image of the rice seed 18 being sucked by the suction hole and transmits it to the computer terminal 16 for recording, thus completing one test process.

[0047] Then, according to the test requirements, the posture of the rice seeds 18 is adjusted and the geometric structure of the negative pressure simulation chamber of the seed metering device is changed, and the test is carried out according to the above steps.

[0048] The test steps and principles of the positive pressure seed blowing force test are as follows: After the negative pressure seed suction simulation chamber 10 of the seed metering device is replaced with the positive pressure seed blowing simulation chamber 26 of the seed metering device, the test process is the same as above.

[0049] Combined with the test process, the device will eventually determine the negative pressure adsorption force and positive pressure blowing force of the rice seeds 18 by the following equation, namely:

[0052] The seed adsorption force or seed blowing force value can be determined by comparing the F1' and F1 values ​​determined by the theoretical formula.

[0053] The present invention provides a test bench for testing the mechanical properties of rice seed materials. The negative pressure adsorption force and airflow blowing force exerted on the seeds are converted into direct data through the lever amplification principle, so that researchers can make timely improvements and optimization adjustments to the structure of the seed meter during the design and development cycle of the seed meter. The following parameter relationships can be established based on the actual measurement data of the present invention:

[0054] F=Cρ α μ β Q γ d δ D θ V ω
