Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of moisture detection technology, and more particularly to the field of grain moisture detection technology. Background Technology
[0002] With the annual increase in national grain output and the continuous improvement of grain drying technology, harvested grain is first dried in a drying tower to a storeable moisture content before being stored. The grain drying tower and control system consist of several parts: the drying tower (containing a grain discharge device, heating fan, temperature sensor, etc.), a boiler heating device, a control cabinet, and a grain moisture meter. Harvested grain is conveyed to the drying tower by a conveyor belt. The boiler heating device burns coal to generate heat, which is then blown into the tower by the fan to dry the grain. The control cabinet drives and controls the temperature, wind speed, and air temperature of the boiler heating device, as well as the speed of the grain discharge motor inside the drying tower, to control the grain drying process. The dried grain is then conveyed to the storage facility. However, over-drying and ineffective drying are common problems in grain drying, resulting in inconsistent drying conditions, such as with corn, leading to significant processing losses and waste.
[0003] Current grain moisture measurement technologies in drying towers include some using graduated cylinder moisture meters or halogen drying moisture meters to test the moisture content of the dried grain, and others using infrared spectroscopy. Furthermore, some grain moisture measurement devices in drying towers typically place a humidity detection probe in the center of the graduated cylinder to detect the grain's dryness. With halogen drying moisture meters, the grain dried at high temperatures cannot be stored or used after measurement, resulting in waste. The installation position of the humidity detection probe is controlled by the grain discharge flow rate; the flow rate of the grain passing through the sensor's detection location varies, and this change in grain flow affects the measured value.
