Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of seed pretreatment devices, and specifically relates to a tomato seed pretreatment device. Background Technology

[0002] Tomato seeds are one of the most important routes for the spread of tomato pathogens. Pathogens carried by tomato seeds can directly infect buds and seedlings, causing seed destruction and seedling death, and providing a source of infection for later disease outbreaks, thus being the root cause of disease in the tomato field. Pathogens include fungi, bacteria, and viruses. These pathogens exist in the form of spores, mycelia, and fungal cells mixed among tomato seeds, attached to the seed surface, and even latent within the seed coat tissue or embryo. Therefore, pre-sowing sterilization and disinfection of tomato seeds is an essential measure to reduce disease transmission and prevent field disease occurrence. Many tomato seed manufacturers require tomato seed sterilization and disinfection treatment before selling their seeds, i.e., tomato seed pretreatment.

[0003] Existing technologies have specifically developed some tomato seed pretreatment devices. For example, Chinese patent publication number "CN221043722U" discloses "a rice seed disinfection pretreatment device". The device uses an electromagnetic valve to allow the soaked seeds to fall onto a drain plate in the lower treatment box. A vibrator is used to vibrate the drain plate, which allows the water in the rice seeds to be drained quickly. The drain plate is movably installed in the installation platform, which is convenient for installation and disassembly, and facilitates the further processing of the drained rice seeds, reducing labor.

[0004] Although the vibration allows the water in the rice seeds to drain quickly, and the draining plate is movably installed within the installation platform for easy installation and disassembly, facilitating further processing of the drained rice seeds and reducing labor, blockages can occur at the discharge port when the disinfected material is discharged from the disinfection chamber into the processing chamber. This is because the material cannot be dried promptly after being soaked, leading to accumulation at the discharge port as it is discharged into the processing chamber, requiring manual unblocking. This does not effectively improve the flow of material and increases the difficulty for workers. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the problems mentioned in the background art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a tomato seed pretreatment device to solve the problems of seed pretreatment devices.

[0028] refer to Figures 1 to 2 Four support rods 10 are fixedly installed on the upper end of the processing box 6. The end of the support rod 10 away from the processing box 6 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the disinfection box 5, which can effectively fix the disinfection box 5 on the upper end of the processing box 6.

[0029] refer to Figures 2 to 3 Two feeding hoppers 3 are fixedly installed at the upper end of the disinfection box 5. The output shaft of the drive motor 1 passes through the upper end of the disinfection box 5 and is fixedly connected to the rotating rod 21. The staff first pours the materials to be disinfected into the disinfection box 5 from the feeding hoppers 3 fixedly installed at the upper end of the disinfection box 5.

[0030] refer to Figures 6 to 7 The discharge pipe 16 has an outlet 23 inside, and the screw rod 22 is rotatably installed inside the outlet 23. The outer ring of the discharge pipe 16 is fixedly installed with a solenoid valve 28. Under the rotation of the screw rod 22, the wet material can be effectively guided into the processing box 6, which can effectively solve the problem of blockage.

[0031] refer to Figures 3 to 4 The processing box 6 has mounting blocks 12 fixedly installed on all four sides of its interior. The mounting blocks 12 have circular grooves 29 inside. A telescopic rod 19 is fixedly installed inside the circular grooves 29. The end of the telescopic rod 19 away from the circular grooves 29 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the drain frame 11. Springs 20 are fixedly installed on all four sides of the bottom of the drain frame 11. The end of the spring 20 away from the drain frame 11 is fixedly installed inside the circular grooves 29. The springs 20 are located on the outer ring of the telescopic rod 19. Vibrators 17 are fixedly installed on both sides of the bottom of the drain frame 11.

When drying the materials, they can be removed by pulling the pull rods 25 fixedly installed on the upper end of the screening plate 26.

[0033] Operating principle and advantages: During use, the operator first pours the material to be disinfected into the disinfection chamber 5 through the feed hopper 3 fixedly installed at the top. Then, the disinfectant is poured into the chamber 5 through the feed hopper. Next, the operator connects the water pipe to the inlet pipe 4, allowing water to flow into the disinfection chamber 5. When the water level reaches a certain level, the operator can start the drive motor 1. Under the operation of the drive motor 1, the rotating rod 21 fixedly installed on the output shaft of the drive motor 1 will rotate, thereby driving the rotating rod 21 fixedly installed on the output shaft. The rotating rubber stirring rod 24, fixedly installed on the outer ring, effectively mixes the disinfectant material with water and thoroughly stirs the material to be disinfected, resulting in better cleaning. The rotation of the rubber stirring rod 24 prevents damage to the material and avoids loss. After stirring, the material can be removed after soaking for a short time. Workers can then open the drain pipe to effectively discharge the wastewater. After the wastewater is drained, workers can open the solenoid valve 28, fixedly installed on the outer ring of the discharge pipe 16, to discharge the cleaned material into the processing tank. During material discharge, the addition of water can cause the material to clump together, making discharge difficult. Therefore, workers need to start the drive motor 1 to drive the screw rod 22, fixedly installed at the bottom of the rotating rod 21. Since the screw rod 22 is located inside the discharge port 23, its rotation effectively guides the moist material into the processing tank 6, effectively solving the blockage problem. When the material is discharged into the processing tank 6, it will fall onto the screen plate 26, fixedly installed inside the drain frame 11. Workers can then control the flow. The vibrator 17 drives the drain frame 11, and the vibration of the drain frame 11 can effectively screen the material on the upper end of the screening plate 26. Then, the unqualified material will fall into the waste box 15 from the positions of the first screen hole 13 and the second screen hole 18. Water stains will also flow into the waste box 15 through the positions of the first screen hole 13 and the second screen hole 18. Finally, the waste and wastewater will be discharged from the drain pipe 27 fixedly installed on one side of the waste box 15. When the material is dried, it can be taken out by pulling the pull rod 25 fixedly installed on the upper end of the screening plate 26, which can effectively improve the sterilization effect of the material.
