[0027] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0028] To make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0029] Example

[0030] Reference Figures 1-4As shown, this embodiment provides a corn storage early warning bin, including a sealing cover 1, a detection plate 2, and a bin body 3 connected in sequence from top to bottom. The detection plate 2 is provided with a guide groove 4, and a slide body 6 connected to a drive assembly 5 is slidably connected in the guide groove 4. The drive assembly 5 drives the slide body 6 to slide along the guide groove 4. A detection rod 7 extending into the bin body 3 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the slide body 6. An early warning device 8 is fixedly connected to the detection rod 7. The side wall of the early warning device 8 is provided with evenly distributed through holes, and a mold early warning sensor is installed inside the early warning device 8.

[0031] In use, the mold warning sensor can be a temperature and humidity sensor or a gas sensor. The drive component 5 drives the slider 6 to slide along the guide groove 4, thereby moving the warning device 8 and the mold warning sensor. By using a single warning device 8, multi-point detection on the surface of the grain pile can be achieved, thus realizing good monitoring of mold warning of corn in the warehouse.

[0032] In a further optimized design, the guide groove 4 is a flat spiral shape centered on the center of the detection plate 2.

[0033] When in use, the flat spiral guide groove 4 can cover the surface of the grain pile more comprehensively, so that the early warning device 8 can fully detect the material status on the surface of the grain pile, and the quality of corn in the warehouse can be well monitored.

[0034] In a further preferred embodiment, the drive assembly 5 includes a first pull rope 51, a second pull rope, a first pull rope winding unit 52, and a second pull rope winding unit 53. The first pull rope 51 and the second pull rope are respectively fixed to both sides of the slide body 6, and the first pull rope winding unit 52 and the second pull rope winding unit 53 are respectively fixed to both ends of the guide groove 4. Both the first pull rope winding unit 52 and the second pull rope winding unit 53 include a winding frame 521, on which a drum 522 is rotatably connected. One end of the drum 522 is connected to a winding motor 523 fixedly connected to the winding frame 521.

[0035] In use, the winding motor 523 drives the drum 522 to rotate, thereby winding up the first pull rope 51 or the second pull rope. The winding motor 523 is connected to the monitoring terminal, and the operating speed and running time of the winding motor 523 are monitored by the monitoring terminal, so that the staff can easily determine the real-time location of the early warning device 8 and the location of grain mold.

[0036] In a further optimized design, guide holes 9 are provided on the inner walls of both ends of the guide groove 4. The guide holes 9 are inclined and the top of the guide holes 9 are located on the top surface of the detection plate 2.

[0037] In use, the guide hole 9 is used to pass through the first pull rope 51 or the second pull rope. The first pull rope 51 and the second pull rope pass through the guide hole 9 from the guide groove 4 and are then wound onto the drum 522. The guide hole 9 is used to ensure the stability of the first pull rope 51 and the second pull rope when they are wound up.

[0038] Further optimization of the design resulted in the early warning device 8 being spindle-shaped.

[0039] When in use, the spindle-shaped warning device 8 can prevent sharp corners from appearing on the outer shell of the warning device 8, which could damage the grain.

[0040] In a further preferred embodiment, the slide body 6 includes a cylindrical slide rod 61 located in the guide groove 4. The top end of the slide rod 61 is fixedly connected to an upper limit block 62 that is slidably connected to the top surface of the detection plate 2. The bottom end of the slide rod 61 is fixedly connected to a lower limit block 63 that is slidably connected to the bottom surface of the detection plate 2. The bottom surface of the lower limit block 63 is fixedly connected to a detection rod 7.

[0041] In use, the cylindrical slide bar 61, the upper limit block 62, and the lower limit block 63 can be connected by bolts to facilitate the assembly and disassembly of the slide body 6 on the guide groove 4. The cylindrical slide bar 61 can reduce the wear between the slide body 6 and the guide groove 4 on the detection plate 2, and improve the service life of the slide body 6 and the detection plate 2. The upper limit block 62 and the lower limit block 63 are used to prevent the slide body 6 from falling out of the guide groove 4.

[0042] In a further optimized design, rollers are installed on the side surfaces of the upper limit block 62 and the lower limit block 63 that are slidably connected to the detection plate 2.

[0043] During use, the rollers can reduce wear on the upper and lower surfaces of the slide body 6 and the detection plate 2, thereby increasing the service life of the slide body 6 and the detection plate 2.

[0044] In a further optimized design, the detection rod 7 is detachably connected to the slide body 6, and the total length of the detection rod 7 and the warning device 8 is 30-50cm.

[0045] In use, the detachable connection between the detection rod 7 and the sliding body 6 facilitates the maintenance and replacement of the early warning device 8. The length limitation of the detection rod 7 and the early warning device 8 enables the early warning device 8 to perform early warning monitoring on the surface of the grain pile.

[0046] In a further optimized design, a first protrusion 10 is provided on the curved sidewall of the sealing cover 1, a second protrusion 11 is provided on the curved sidewall of the detection plate 2, and a third protrusion 12 is provided on the curved sidewall of the chamber 3. The first protrusion 10, the second protrusion 11 and the third protrusion 12 are connected by long bolts 13, and a sealing gasket is provided between the first protrusion 10, the second protrusion 11 and the third protrusion 12.

[0047] In use, the first protrusion 10, the second protrusion 11 and the third protrusion 12 facilitate the detachable connection between the sealing cover 1, the detection plate 2 and the chamber 3, and the sealing gasket can ensure the sealing of the connection between the sealing cover 1, the detection plate 2 and the chamber 3.

[0048] Further optimization of the scheme involves connecting the sensor for mold early warning to the monitoring terminal via signal connection, and electrically connecting the detection terminal to the alarm.

[0049] In use, the mold warning sensor sends the detected signal value to the detection terminal. The processor on the detection terminal can compare the signal value with the preset value. When the alarm condition is met, the processor causes the alarm to issue an alarm signal, reminding the staff to take corresponding measures such as ventilation, thus realizing intelligent monitoring of mold warning for corn in the warehouse.

[0050] Therefore, the corn storage early warning warehouse of the present invention, which adopts the above structure, can realize multi-point detection on the surface of the grain pile using a single sensor, and achieve good monitoring of corn mold early warning in the warehouse.
