Abstract

[0002] In daily production life, as a preliminary step in grain processing, the moisture content of the grains often needs to be adjusted. By controlling the humidity, the moisture content of the target sample is adjusted to an appropriate level in order to carry out the subsequent processing steps. The skin of dry corn is relatively brittle and not easy to fall off, and the toughness of the embryo is relatively poor. After moisture adjustment, the skin absorbs water and swells, and the connection with the endosperm is slightly reduced, and the toughness increases. After the embryo absorbs it, the toughness will also increase, and it will not be easy to break, which is convenient for embryo extraction and can also improve the production quality of corn.
[0003] The traditional way to control the moisture content of corn flour is to directly spray it on the surface of the corn to moisten it, and use stirring equipment or manually stir the corn to make it more evenly moistened. However, the traditional method has low work efficiency and the moistening is not uniform enough. The corn needs to be screened separately before moistening to remove impurities, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Utility Model Content
