Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0034] like Figure 1As shown, the present invention provides a system for sampling and detecting quality of agricultural products, comprising the following steps:
[0035] S1: Place the indirect cold plasma combined with modified atmosphere packaged agricultural products such as cherry tomatoes, cucumbers and lettuce at the starting position of the production line, ensuring that each agricultural product is placed separately, and the interval between each agricultural product is set to 5-10cm to facilitate the subsequent testing process;
[0036] S2: Use high-resolution cameras and infrared sensors to perform non-contact measurement of agricultural products. The scanning resolution of the high-resolution camera is set to 300dpi, and the temperature detection threshold of the infrared sensor is set in the range of -10-+10℃ to ensure that slight changes in the packaging can be captured;
[0037] S3: Use visual inspection equipment to analyze product images, identify potential problem products according to preset standards, automatically mark the suspected problem products, and transfer them from the mainstream pipeline to the inspection area. The preset standard is: the area of package damage is greater than 5cm 2 or products with surface defects, irregular shapes, or inconsistent maturity;
[0038] S4: Perform a flexible pressure test, set the pressure range of the flexible pressure device to apply a pressure of 0.5-1.5 kgf, and set the duration of the pressure test to last for 5 seconds;
[0039] S5: Perform gas sensor detection to enable the gas sensor to detect whether the concentration changes of oxygen, carbon dioxide and ethylene are abnormal. When the oxygen concentration drops by more than 5% or the ethylene concentration rises by more than 1ppm, it is considered abnormal. The detection frequency of the gas sensor is set to 0.2Hz to monitor the changes in gas concentration in real time. The gas sensors are set on the top and side of the package to comprehensively monitor the changes in gas composition;
[0040] S6: If the flexible pressure test is passed, the suspected problematic product is sampled, the sample size is set to 10g, and pH index detection and microbial detection are performed. When the pH index is detected, the pH accuracy is set to 0.01, the number of repetitions of the pH index detection is set to 3 times, and when the microbial detection is performed, the threshold value of the total number of colonies is set to no more than 10 colonies per gram of sample. 4 CFU, and set the culture time range to 24-48h. According to the test results, adjust the ratio of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the modified atmosphere packaging to 8-12% and 1.5-2.5% respectively.
[0041] S7: The data cloud platform collects all test data, matches it with the digital twin model, automatically calculates the index value, and displays it in a three-dimensional image on the control terminal. The operator of the control terminal adjusts the equipment parameters according to the displayed data to optimize the production process.
[0042] S8: Through iterative optimization, 45% of the collected data in the next process cycle is used as verification data to test the working efficiency and product quality of the automated production line; the system automatically records the results of each test and adjustment to provide data support and optimization suggestions for future production.
[0043] It should be noted that:
[0044] S1: Ensure the efficiency and accuracy of the inspection process by placing each agricultural product separately and keeping a distance of 5-10cm. This method not only avoids interference between products, but also maintains the smooth operation of the production line, thus ensuring the continuity and consistency of inspection.
[0045] S2: Non-contact measurement using a 300dpi high-resolution camera and infrared sensor provides a non-destructive way to inspect agricultural products and effectively protect the integrity of the products. This measurement can capture small changes in product packaging and temperature, providing important data support for early detection of potential problems.
[0046] S3: Automated visual inspection equipment significantly improves the efficiency of identifying potentially problematic products. Through preset standards, the equipment can quickly and automatically identify damaged or deformed products, reducing the need for manual inspection and possible errors, and improving the accuracy of the entire inspection process.
[0047] S4: Flexible pressure test evaluates the pressure resistance of product packaging by simulating actual transportation conditions. Applying 0.5-1.5kgf of pressure for 5 seconds helps to screen out products with fragile structures, ensuring that only products that meet the pressure resistance requirements can enter the market and improve the market access standards of products.
[0048] S5: Gas sensor detection provides an effective means to promptly detect product freshness and deterioration by monitoring the concentration changes of oxygen, carbon dioxide and ethylene in real time. The detection frequency of 0.2Hz ensures a rapid response to changes in gas composition, providing early indicators for evaluating product quality and safety.
[0049] S6: In-depth pH and microbiological testing of suspected problematic products ensures food safety. Accurate pH testing and microbial counts help assess the hygienic condition of the product. Based on these test results, the ratio of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the modified atmosphere packaging is adjusted to optimize the preservation effect and extend the shelf life of the product.
[0050] S7: Use the data cloud platform and digital twin model to realize real-time collection and analysis of agricultural product testing data. This step enables operators to quickly understand the current production status through the intuitive display of three-dimensional images on the control terminal, and make timely equipment parameter adjustments based on data analysis results. This data-based decision-making process not only improves production efficiency, but also ensures consistency and optimization of product quality.
[0051] S8: Through iterative optimization and automatic system recording, we can continuously monitor and improve the efficiency and product quality of the automated production line. We use 45% of the collected data in the next process cycle as verification to ensure the stability and reliability of the production process. At the same time, each test and adjustment result recorded by the system provides valuable data support and optimization suggestions for future production, which helps to accumulate production experience, form a knowledge base, and lay the foundation for long-term development.
