Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of grain testing equipment technology, and in particular to a grain aflatoxin detection device based on machine vision. Background Technology

[0002] Aflatoxin is a potent carcinogen produced by Aspergillus flavus. It is extremely toxic, primarily damaging the liver, causing hepatocyte necrosis, hemorrhage, and bile duct hyperplasia. It has a significant carcinogenic effect. Aflatoxin contaminates grains, oils, and their products, such as peanuts, peanut oil, corn, rice, and cottonseed. Milk and salted fish are also susceptible to contamination.

[0003] Therefore, if grains contain excessive levels of aflatoxin, it will seriously threaten people's health. Testing can promptly identify and address grains containing excessive levels of aflatoxin, preventing them from entering the market and thus protecting consumers' health rights.

[0004] Existing machine vision-based aflatoxin detection equipment for grains suffers from poor imaging results due to unstable sample placement, which affects the accuracy of detection. To address this issue, a machine vision-based aflatoxin detection device for grains is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 3This utility model provides an embodiment comprising an operating platform 1 and a grain placement tray 4. A mounting housing 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the operating platform 1. An image acquisition, processing, and analysis module 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting housing 2. Support plates 5 are uniformly fixedly connected to the top of the operating platform 1. A positioning component 6 is provided on the top of the support plate 5, and a replacement component 7 is provided on the top of the positioning component 6. A drive component 8 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the positioning component 6. The positioning component 6 includes a support column 61 fixedly connected to the top of the operating platform 1. A positioning frame 62 is rotatably connected to the top of the support column 61. A connecting rod 63 is rotatably connected to the surface of the positioning frame 62, and a positioning block 64 is rotatably connected to the other end of each connecting rod 63. A positioning plate 65 is fixedly connected to the top of the support plate 5, and a groove is intersectingly formed on the central surface of the positioning plate 65. The image acquisition, processing, and analysis module 3 is located above the center of the positioning plate 65. This module is used to acquire, process, and analyze images of the grain sample inside the grain placement tray 4. The positioning frame 62 is cross-shaped, with one end of each connecting rod 63 rotatably connected to the surface of each end of the positioning frame 62. The positioning block 64 is I-shaped, with its waist slidably connected inside the slide groove 66. Through the positioning components 6, the grain placement tray 4 is positioned in multiple directions. The simultaneous movement of the clamping plate 71 can press the grain placement tray 4 towards the center of the positioning plate 65, ensuring stable placement of the sample while keeping it always centered below the image acquisition, processing, and analysis module 3. This ensures the imaging effect of the image acquisition, processing, and analysis module 3 and indirectly improves the accuracy of the detection.

[0024] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 3 The drive assembly 8 includes a first fixing block 81 fixedly connected to the bottom of the positioning plate 65, a second fixing block 82 fixedly connected to the bottom of the positioning block 64, and an electric telescopic rod 83 fixedly connected between the opposing surfaces of the first fixing block 81 and the second fixing block 82. The grain placement tray 4 is placed on the top surface of the positioning plate 65, and the clamping plate 71 is located on the four sides of the grain placement tray 4 and centers the grain placement tray 4. The bottom of the clamping plate 71 is slidably connected to the inside of the limiting groove 73. The first fixing block 81 and the second fixing block 82 are on the same horizontal line and are relatively far apart. By changing the setting of the assembly 7, the clamping plate 71 can be quickly installed and positioned by sliding and inserting it. At the same time, the clamping plate 71 can also be quickly replaced so that the device can be adapted to grain placement trays 4 of different shapes, thereby improving the practicality of the device.

[0025] Working principle: When it is necessary to test for aflatoxin in grain, first prepare the grain sample to be tested, crush the grain sample and add the extraction solution, then perform vibration extraction. Place the extracted sample evenly into the grain placement tray 4, then place the grain placement tray 4 on the top surface of the positioning plate 65. Then, activate the electric telescopic rod 83, which drives the second fixing block 82 to move towards the center of the positioning plate 65, thereby causing the positioning frame 62 to rotate. When the positioning frame 62 rotates, the connecting rod 63 drives the four positioning blocks 64 to move simultaneously towards the center of the positioning plate 65, thereby causing the clamping plate 71 to move towards the center of the positioning plate 65. As the clamping plate 71 moves simultaneously, the grain placement tray 4 can be positioned in multiple directions using the anti-slip pad 72. The simultaneous movement of the clamping plate 71 can press the grain placement tray 4 towards the center of the positioning plate 65, ensuring that the test sample is not unstable while keeping it in the center below the image acquisition, processing and analysis module 3. This ensures the imaging effect of the image acquisition, processing and analysis module 3 and indirectly improves the accuracy of the test. When the grain placement tray 4 needs to be replaced with a bucket, the clamping plate 71 can be pulled out from the inside of the limiting groove 73 and replaced with an arc-shaped clamping plate 71, which makes it easier to position and clamp the bucket-shaped grain placement tray 4.

[0026] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
