When the harvester is operating, it is inevitable that some grains will be discharged from the machine through the cleaning screen along with the debris due to inappropriate fan speed, excessive cleaning load and other reasons.

[0037] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0038] It should be noted that the following detailed descriptions are exemplary and are intended to provide further explanation of the present invention. Unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meanings as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which the present invention belongs.

[0039] It should be noted that the terms used herein are only for describing specific embodiments, and are not intended to limit exemplary embodiments according to the present invention. As used herein, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, the singular form is also intended to include the plural form. In addition, it should be understood that the terms "include" and "comprise" and any of their variations are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions, for example, a process, method, system, product or device comprising a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units clearly listed, but may include other steps or units that are not clearly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products or devices.

[0040] In the absence of conflict, the embodiments of the present invention and the features of the embodiments may be combined with each other.

[0041] Example 1

[0042] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a cleaning loss monitoring device with a lost grain collection function, including: a processor, a dedusting device 1 obliquely installed at a cleaning and screening outlet of a grain harvester, a cleaning loss sensor 3 installed below the dedusting device 1 and parallel to the dedusting device 1, and a grain collecting device horizontally installed on the grain harvester and located below the cleaning loss sensor 3.

[0043] In this embodiment, the impurity removal device 1 is a comb-tooth structure, and the comb-tooth gap can be adjusted to block large impurities such as large stems and weeds. Grains and light impurities fall from the comb-tooth gap onto the cleaning loss sensor 3.

[0044] In this embodiment, two cleaning loss sensors 3 are arranged on the grain harvester through a bracket 7. The bracket 7 is connected to the grain harvester. The cleaning loss sensors 3 are installed on the bracket 7 and can be adjusted in the left and right directions.

[0045] In this embodiment, if Figure 4-5 As shown, the sensing units 9 of the cleaning loss sensor 3 are arranged in a 2×4 array and installed on a hard substrate; from top to bottom, they are respectively a protective layer 9-1, a PI layer 9-2, a TPU layer 9-3, a PVDF layer 9-4, a TPU layer 9-5, a PI layer 9-6, and a buffer layer 9-7. The signal line is connected from the PVDF layer 9-4. The TPU layer 9-3 and the TPU layer 9-5 are processed to form a surface microstructure, and a layer of gold is sputtered on the surface microstructure to improve the response speed and detection accuracy of the sensing unit 9.

[0046] In this embodiment, the grain collecting device includes a screening device for secondary screening of fallen grains and a collecting and measuring device for collecting the screened grains.

[0047] The screening device comprises a mesh screen 4, a vibration motor 2 and a variable frequency fan 10; Figure 3 As shown, the mesh screen 4 is horizontally installed below the cleaning loss sensor 3, and is connected to the vibration motor 2 through the driving connecting rod 11. The vibration motor 2 drives the mesh screen 4 to move up, down, left and right through the driving connecting rod 11, so that the grains fall from the sieve holes of the mesh screen 4; the variable frequency fan 10 is installed on one lateral side of the mesh screen 4 to blow away light impurities or small stems from the mesh screen 4.

[0048] The rotation speed of the vibration motor 2 and the variable frequency fan 10 is adjusted in real time according to the grain signal monitored by the cleaning loss sensor 3, and the rotation speed is increased when the detected value is large; specifically, when the number of grains monitored by the cleaning loss sensor 3 increases, the rotation speed of the vibration motor 2 and the variable frequency fan 10 is increased to ensure that the debris falling on the mesh screen 4 can be cleaned; when the number of grains detected by the cleaning loss sensor 3 is zero and the machine travel speed is also zero, the machine harvesting operation is stopped at this time, and the vibration motor 2 and the variable frequency fan 10 are controlled and adjusted to run at the maximum speed to clean up the debris remaining on the mesh screen 4.

[0049] The collecting and measuring device comprises a collecting funnel 5, a photoelectric sensor 8 and a collecting box 6; Figure 1-2 As shown, the collecting funnels 5 are installed below the mesh screen 4, one on each side. A collecting box 6 is provided below each collecting funnel 5. The photoelectric sensor 8 is installed on the cylindrical wall of the collecting funnel 5 to detect the number of grains falling into the collecting box 6 after screening, and then calculate the quality of the grains.

[0050] In this embodiment, in order to realize the monitoring of the cleaning loss in the full width direction, two monitoring methods are adopted: one is to monitor by the cleaning loss sensor 3, using two cleaning loss sensors, each with a length of l, and a full width monitoring range of 2l; the other is to monitor by the photoelectric sensor 8, with a full width monitoring range of l ′, l ′ =L-2l, where L is the width of the harvester's cleaning and screening outlet.

[0051] First, a cleaning loss sensor monitoring method is provided, wherein the number of grains impacting the cleaning loss sensor is determined according to the grain signal of the cleaning loss sensor, thereby obtaining the first cleaning loss mass in the monitoring area of ​​the cleaning loss sensor; specifically, the method includes:

[0052] Through experiments, under different parameters such as fan speed, cleaning screen vibration frequency, sieve hole opening, etc., the area where the seeds and debris discharged from the cleaning screen fall is gridded, the seeds in each small grid area are collected, and a mathematical model of the distribution of the seeds discharged from the cleaning screen is established. According to the distribution model, the position where the seeds are relatively concentrated in the width direction under different parameters is selected as the installation position of the cleaning loss sensor 3.

[0053] After the cleaning loss sensor 3 is arranged according to the determined installation position, the grains fall from the comb teeth gap of the impurity removal device 1 onto the sensing unit 9 of the cleaning loss sensor 3. Due to the different masses of the grains and the light impurities, the maximum deformation and deformation time caused by the collision are also different. According to the Hertz contact theory, the collision time is t i :

[0054]

[0055] Where: m is the mass of the collision object; v n is the normal velocity of the collision; E * is the effective particle elastic modulus, R * is the effective particle radius.

[0056] v n =(v0+gt)·sinθ

[0057]

[0058] Among them: v0 is the initial velocity in the vertical direction; t is the time from the outlet of the cleaning screen to the sensor surface; θ is the angle between the sensor surface and the vertical direction; h is the vertical distance from the sensor to the outlet of the cleaning screen.

[0059] The collision time t of grain and debris on the sensor unit i is the response time of the sensor unit, according to the calculated collision time t i , design the sensor signal hardware circuit, can clearly i Related parameters such as filter circuit cutoff frequency, comparator voltage threshold, etc. According to the formula, it can be seen that the distance h from the cleaning loss sensor to the cleaning screen outlet is related to the normal speed v of the collision. n If there is a positive correlation, the optimal sensor unit response time parameter can be obtained by adjusting the distance h.

[0060] The impact signal detected by the cleaning loss sensor 3 is fed back to the controller, and after processing, the number of grains that impact the cleaning loss sensor is obtained, and then the first cleaning loss mass m1 in the 2l area is obtained: in: is the thousand-grain weight of grains in the operating field measured before the operation; n1 is the total number of grains monitored by the two cleaning loss sensors.

[0061] Then, a photoelectric sensor monitoring method is used to determine the number of grains falling into the collecting and measuring device according to the photoelectric signal of the photoelectric sensor, thereby obtaining the second cleaning loss quality in the photoelectric sensor monitoring area; specifically, it includes:

[0062] The grains discharged from the impurity outlet of the harvester fall from the comb teeth of the impurity removal device 1. The grains in the area 21 hit the cleaning loss sensor 3 and then bounce to the ground. ′ The grains in the area fall onto the mesh screen 4. The rotation speeds of the vibration motor 2 and the variable frequency fan 10 are adjusted in real time according to the grain signal detected by the cleaning loss sensor 3. When the number of grains detected by the cleaning loss sensor 3 increases, the rotation speeds of the vibration motor 2 and the variable frequency fan 10 are increased to ensure that the debris falling on the mesh screen 4 can be cleaned up; when the number of grains detected by the cleaning loss sensor 3 is zero and the machine travel speed is also zero, the machine harvesting operation is stopped at this time, and the control system adjusts the vibration motor 2 and the variable frequency fan 10 to run at the maximum speed to clean up the debris remaining on the mesh screen 4.

[0063] The grains pass through the mesh holes of the mesh screen 4 and slide into the collecting box 6 through the collecting funnel 5. The photoelectric sensor 8 on the cylinder of the collecting funnel 5 counts the grains that slide into the collecting box 6. The thousand-grain weight of the grains in the working plot measured before the operation is calculated. ′ The second cleaning loss mass m2 in the range: in: is the thousand-grain weight of grains in the working field measured before the operation; n2 is the total number of grains monitored by the two photoelectric sensors.

[0064] When the photoelectric signal is always in the triggering state, the collecting box 6 is in the full state, and the control system alarms and prompts the operator to clear the grains in the collecting box.

[0065] Finally, due to the good real-time performance of the cleaning loss detection sensor and the relatively accurate measurement results of the photoelectric sensor monitoring due to the secondary air screening cleaning, there is less debris. Therefore, the advantages of both are combined to correct the first cleaning loss quality; specifically, the following are included:

[0066] The average value of the first cleaning loss mass and the second cleaning loss mass within a period of time is taken, and at this time, the grains are considered to be uniformly distributed within the full-width monitoring range of the cleaning loss sensor and the photoelectric sensor;

[0067] In the time interval T, the number of measurements of the cleaning loss sensor and the photoelectric sensor are k1 and k2 respectively, and the mean values ​​of the grain quality are and

[0068]

[0069]

[0070] If the photoelectric detection method is used in all width directions, the measured value of the monitoring area of ​​the loss sensor is for:

[0071] ① When and The error Δm is less than or equal to the set value m ER When The first cleaning loss mass within the time interval T is not corrected, and the loss amount m a for:

[0072]

[0073] ② When and The error Δm is greater than the set value m ER When Correct the measured value within the time interval T, the correction coefficient k ER for:

[0074] Corrected loss amount m b for:

[0075] Then, the total grain loss during harvesting is m 总 for:

[0076] Where: j1 is the number of times the measured value in the harvest process is not corrected; j2 is the total number of corrections in the harvest process.

[0077] Example 2

[0078] This embodiment provides a method for monitoring grain loss with a function of collecting grain loss, using the device for monitoring grain loss described in Embodiment 1, comprising:

[0079] By installing an impurity removal device at the impurity screening outlet of a grain harvester, installing a cleaning loss sensor below the impurity removal device, and installing a grain collecting device below the cleaning loss sensor, the grain collecting device includes a screening device for secondary screening of fallen grains and a collecting and measuring device for collecting the screened grains, wherein a photoelectric sensor is provided in the collecting and measuring device;

Those skilled in the art should understand that various modifications or variations that can be made by those skilled in the art on the basis of the technical solution of the present invention without creative work are still within the scope of protection of the present invention.
