[0002] Potato is an annual herb of the Solanaceae family, Solanum genus. The aboveground stem is diamond-shaped and hairy. The potato leaves are simple when they are first born, and gradually grow into an odd number of unequal pinnate compound leaves of alternating sizes, ovate to oblong; the umbel inflorescence grows at the top, and the flowers are white or blue-purple; the fruit is a berry; the tuber is oblate or spherical, glabrous or covered with sparse soft hairs; the potato skin is white, light red or purple; the potato flesh is white, light yellow, yellow and other colors, and the flowering period is summer. Potatoes are named because they resemble bells.
[0003] During the potato production process, the size of potato tubers needs to be detected in order to better classify them and choose different subsequent processing and transportation plans. However, there is no dedicated size detection device for potatoes, and manual detection is inefficient, resulting in higher economic losses. Therefore, we propose a tool for potato tuber size detection. Utility Model Content

At the same time, the distance between two adjacent limiting mechanisms 5 can be adjusted to detect the longitudinal size of the potato tuber, that is, the potato tuber is controlled to move from the top of the curved rod 4. During the movement, the gradually increasing distance between the curved rods 4 can detect the size of the potato tuber and make potatoes of different sizes fall into different compartments of the storage box 6. Among them, the limiting plate 14 can be used to block the potato tuber. The potatoes are blocked to prevent them from moving into the partition of the adjacent storage box 6 with their own kinetic energy, and the spacing between the limiting mechanisms 5 is adjusted, that is, the limiting rod 12 can move inside the reserved groove 15, so that the limiting plate 14 can be adjusted relative to the annular gasket 11.
