[0002] Sugarcane bud surface integrity testing refers to the quality inspection of the sugarcane seed buds to ensure that their surface is free from damage, lesions, or other defects that may affect the germination rate and growth quality. The integrity of sugarcane seed buds is the fundamental guarantee for a high germination rate of newly planted sugarcane.

[0037] This application provides a sugarcane bud surface integrity detection and screening device, which solves the problem that although mechanical screening can improve screening efficiency compared to manual screening, it is often not accurate enough. Since mechanical screening is usually based on physical characteristics such as size and weight for separation, it is difficult to accurately judge the minor damage or lesions on the surface of sugarcane buds.
[0038] To better understand the above technical solutions, the following will provide a detailed explanation of the technical solutions in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.
[0039] Example 1:

[0042] Conveyor belt 2 is mounted on workbench 1 and used for conveying sugarcane buds. It transports the buds from one end to the other for visual inspection and sorting. Conveyor belt 2 is driven by a motor and operates continuously via a chain or belt transmission mechanism. In use, simply start the motor, and conveyor belt 2 will begin working, transporting the sugarcane buds to the designated location.
[0043] The support frame 3 is mounted on the conveyor belt 2; the support frame 3 is mounted on the conveyor belt 2 and is used to support and fix the vision inspection unit 4 and the controller 5.
[0044] The visual inspection unit 4 is mounted on the support frame 3 and is used to inspect sugarcane buds. The visual inspection unit 4 includes a camera, an image processor, and connecting cables. The camera captures images of the sugarcane buds, and the image processor processes and analyzes the images to determine the integrity of the sugarcane bud surface. The connecting cables connect the camera and the image processor for data transmission. In use, simply activating the visual inspection unit 4 allows the camera to begin capturing images of the sugarcane buds, while the image processor processes and analyzes the images and transmits the results to the controller 5.
[0045] The visual inspection unit 4 enables automated inspection of the sugarcane sprout surface, improving the accuracy and efficiency of the inspection.
[0046] The controller 5 is mounted on the support frame 3 and connected to the vision inspection unit 4. The controller 5, connected to the vision inspection unit 4, receives the detection results from the image processor 42 and determines whether the sugarcane sprouts are qualified according to preset screening criteria. If the sugarcane sprouts are unqualified, the controller 5 sends a signal to the screening unit 6 to initiate a feeding operation. The controller 5 is typically implemented using a programmable logic controller (PLC) or a microcontroller.
[0047] Controller 5 automates the processing and judgment of detection results, improving the accuracy and efficiency of screening.

The electric push rod 61 is connected to the controller 5 and is used to receive control signals and drive the pusher frame 62 to move. The pusher frame 62 is equipped with a pusher plate 63 and a limiting baffle 64. The pusher plate 63 is used to push unqualified sugarcane sprouts off the conveyor belt 2, and the limiting baffle 64 is used to prevent the sugarcane sprouts from slipping or deviating during the pushing process. In use, when the controller 5 determines that the sugarcane sprouts are unqualified, it sends a signal to the electric push rod 61, which then drives the pusher frame 62 to move, causing the pusher plate 63 to push the unqualified sugarcane sprouts off the conveyor belt 2.
[0056] The screening unit 6 enables automated screening and rejection of unqualified sugarcane sprouts, improving screening efficiency and accuracy.
[0057] Collection unit 7 includes:
[0058] Discharge chute 71 is installed on workbench 1;
