[0002] Food is the material basis for our survival. Normally, we deal with food every day, and every year our country also grows food on a large scale to meet people's survival needs. However, the food grown each year is affected by local climate and local soil, which will lead to high or low annual food production. However, the biggest influence is the grain seeds planted each year. Therefore, it is necessary for many local grain agencies to conduct seed analysis on grain particles. First, a certain number of grain particles are quantitatively selected, and the grain shape parameters (length, width, aspect ratio, area, equivalent diameter, circumference, etc.) of each grain grain, as well as their average values, are measured and saved for output.

[0003] However, traditional grain counting mainly relies on manual counting with the eyes, and the grains are collected in containers; grain variety analysis is also a relatively cumbersome process. In the past, the length and width of a certain amount of grain grains were measured manually, and then the length-to-width ratio and the area and circumference of the grain shape were calculated to calculate the average value. Although traditional manual testing can get the desired results, time is moving forward and technology is changing with each passing day; traditional manual selection and testing is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also requires a lot of money and space; and for inspectors, staring at tiny grain particles for a long time can easily cause visual fatigue, which will also lead to an increase in the error rate. Therefore, there is a great need for a device that combines the grain counting function with the grain variety testing function on the market, and the detection efficiency and accuracy are greatly improved through equipment amplification research.

[0004] Based on this, it is necessary to develop an automated grain counting and seed analysis instrument. Utility Model Content
