Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of grain storage, and more specifically, to a grain storage quality detection system. Background Art
[0002] In the field of grain storage, ensuring grain quality and safety is crucial for guaranteeing grain supply, stabilizing the market, and maintaining people's livelihood. With the continuous growth of grain production and the increasing expansion of storage scale, many problems have emerged in traditional grain storage quality detection methods.
[0003] At present, on the one hand, existing grain quality detection methods mostly rely on manual sampling and laboratory testing, with cumbersome operation processes and low efficiency. Manual sampling is greatly affected by subjective factors, making it difficult to ensure the representativeness of samples, prone to deviations in test results, and resulting in misjudgments of grain storage quality. For example, in large granaries, manual sampling may not cover all corners of the granary, missing areas of locally deteriorated grain. And laboratory testing requires transporting samples to professional laboratories, with a long testing cycle, unable to provide timely feedback on grain quality information, missing the best treatment opportunity, and causing grain losses. On the other hand, during the grain storage process, environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, and ventilation conditions have a significant impact on grain quality. However, most current storage facilities lack real-time and comprehensive environmental monitoring means, unable to promptly grasp the impact of environmental changes on grain quality. When environmental parameters exceed the appropriate range, grains are prone to mildew, insect pests, etc., affecting their quality and food safety. For example, in high-temperature and high-humidity seasons, if the storage environment cannot be monitored and regulated in a timely manner, the risk of grain mildew increases sharply, not only reducing the nutritional value of grains but also possibly producing harmful toxins, threatening human health. In addition, the lack of a unified and efficient grain storage quality detection system makes it difficult for storage management departments to comprehensively evaluate and dynamically manage grain quality. Unable to adjust storage strategies such as ventilation, fumigation, etc. in a timely manner according to the grain quality situation, resulting in waste of resources or further deterioration of grain quality. Therefore, it is urgent to develop an accurate, efficient, and intelligent grain storage quality detection system to solve the above problems existing in the prior art, improve the level of grain storage management, and ensure grain safety.

[0044] Moisture content detection unit 21: used to dry the sample using a high-precision drying device according to a preset temperature and time, and use a sensor to monitor the mass change of the sample before and after drying in real time to calculate the moisture content I s , expressed as:
[0045] I s =(M a -M b )÷M a ×100%;
[0046] Among them, M a is the mass of the sample before drying, and M b is the mass of the sample after drying.
[0047] Impurity content detection unit 22: used to screen the sample with sieves of different sieve hole specifications, and use an automated weighing device to weigh the undersize material and the impurities on the sieve respectively to calculate the impurity content I z , expressed as:
[0048] I z =Z x ÷Z m ×100%;
[0049] Among them, Z x is the mass of the impurities, and Z m is the total mass of the sample.
[0050] Volume weight detection unit 23: used to put the sample into a volume weight meter with a set volume, and accurately measure the mass of the sample through an electronic weighing device to calculate the volume weight I R , expressed as:

[0052] Among them, Y m is the mass of the grain sample, and V is the volume of the volume weight meter.
[0053] Fatty acid value detection unit 24: used to first extract the fatty acids in the sample with anhydrous ethanol according to an automated extraction and titration device, then titrate with a potassium hydroxide standard solution, and record the volume of the potassium hydroxide solution consumed through a sensor to calculate the fatty acid value I K, expressed as:
[0054] I K = (V - V0) × C × 56.11 ÷ m × 100;
[0055] Wherein, V is the volume of potassium hydroxide solution consumed in the titration of the sample, V0 is the volume of potassium hydroxide solution consumed in the blank titration (ml), C is the concentration of the potassium hydroxide standard solution (mol / L), 56.11 is the molar mass of potassium hydroxide (g / mol), and m is the mass of the sample (g).
[0056] The imperfect grain content detection unit 25 is used to identify and count the imperfect grains in the grain sample by using an image recognition algorithm, and then obtain the mass of the imperfect grains through a weighing device, and calculate the imperfect grain content I L , expressed as:
[0057] I L = Y W ÷ Y m × 100%
[0058] Wherein, Y W is the mass of the imperfect grains, and Y m is the mass of the grain sample.

Excessive moisture content will directly lead to grain mildew, which has a greater impact on the safe storage of grain, so a higher weight can be assigned; while the impurity content has a relatively smaller impact on grain quality, so a lower weight can be assigned. Specifically, when applied, the value of W1 is 30%, the value of W2 is 10%, the value of W3 is 20%, the value of W4 is 20%, and the value of W5 is 20%.

[0072] Specifically, with the help of Table 2 shown above:
[0073] 8 - 10 points: High quality, the grain quality is good, all indicators meet or exceed the set standards, suitable for long-term storage and processing.
[0074] 6 - 8 points: Good, the grain quality is good, all indicators basically meet the set standards, can be stored and processed normally.
[0075] 4 - 6 points: Qualified, the grain quality is average, some indicators are close to the lower limit of the set standards. Take corresponding measures for treatment, such as drying, impurity removal, etc., to ensure grain quality safety.

[0077] 0 - 2 points: Inferior, the grain quality is seriously unqualified, multiple indicators exceed the set standards, and it is no longer suitable as edible grain. Used as industrial grain or for other purposes.
[0078] The early warning decision-making module 5 is used to obtain the grain status of the status evaluation module 4 for early warning, among which, including:
[0079] When the grain quality value S ≥ the preset risk threshold, a warning message is issued, and relevant management personnel are notified by means such as text messages, emails, or system pop-ups. According to the grain quality status, corresponding decisions are provided to help management personnel take timely measures to ensure grain quality safety.
[0080] Specifically, it includes the following decisions:
[0081] Among them, for grains with too high moisture content, it is recommended to start the ventilation and drying equipment;
[0082] Among them, for grains with excessive impurity content, impurity removal treatment is recommended.
