Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wheat seed storage technology, specifically to a wheat seed storage bin. Background Technology
[0002] To extend the storage time of wheat seeds and prevent germination during storage, wheat seeds are usually dried. However, even after drying, insect eggs may still be present inside the wheat seeds, making them susceptible to hatching and infestation during storage.
[0003] The existing technology involves quantitatively delivering biogas into the storage space to kill insect eggs inside wheat seeds. However, when delivering biogas into the storage chamber, the gaps between the wheat seeds are small, causing the biogas to not be evenly distributed among the wheat seeds and not to completely cover all the wheat seeds. It can only kill insect eggs on the surface of the wheat seeds in the storage space, resulting in poor insecticidal effect.
[0004] In addition, it is inconvenient to sample wheat seeds at different heights in the storage bin during wheat seed storage, making it impossible to accurately determine the quality of the wheat seeds.
[0005] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this application proposes a wheat seed storage bin. Utility Model Content
[0006] I. Technical problems to be solved
[0007] The technical problem this invention aims to solve is that biogas cannot completely cover all wheat seeds, making it inconvenient to sample wheat seeds at different heights in the storage bin.
[0008] II. Technical Solution

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0030] As attached Figure 1 and attached Figure 2 As shown, a wheat seed storage bin includes a storage bin 1. The top of the storage bin 1 is equipped with a feed inlet 2, through which wheat seeds are fed into and out of the storage bin 1. A bin cover 3 is sealed on the outside of the feed inlet 2. A sealing gasket is installed on the top of the storage bin 1. The bin cover 3 is fitted onto the outside of the feed inlet 2 to seal the feed inlet 2. A support frame 22 is installed at the bottom of the storage bin 1 to keep the storage bin away from the ground and prevent the storage bin 1 from getting damp.
[0031] To improve ventilation in wheat seedlings, as shown in the attached document... Figure 1 As shown, a mesh cover 4 is connected between the upper and lower side walls of the storage chamber 1, and a mesh central cylinder 5 is installed at the bottom of the storage chamber 1. Wheat seeds are stored between the mesh cover 4 and the mesh central cylinder 5 to reduce the thickness of the wheat seed accumulation and ensure the ventilation effect of the wheat seeds.
[0032] To allow biogas to enter storage chamber 1 more effectively, the air in storage chamber 1 is extracted, as shown in the attached diagram. Figure 3As shown, an exhaust assembly is installed on the upper part of the side wall. The exhaust assembly includes an exhaust pipe 12. One end of the exhaust pipe 12 extends between the side wall of the storage chamber 1 and the outside of the mesh cover 4. A control valve 2 13 is installed on the part of the exhaust pipe 12 located on the outside of the storage chamber 1. The exhaust pipe 12 is connected to the air extraction device. The control valve 2 13 is opened, and the air inside the storage chamber 1 is extracted through the air extraction device and the exhaust pipe 12 until it approaches a vacuum state, which facilitates the subsequent entry of biogas into the storage chamber 1.
[0033] The biogas is evenly distributed between the wheat seeds, as shown in the attached image. Figure 3 and attached Figure 4 As shown, an installation pipe 6 is installed at the bottom of the storage chamber 1. The installation pipe 6 is connected to the lower end of the mesh center cylinder 5. A sealing cover 7 is sealed on the outside of the installation pipe 6. An air intake assembly passes through the center of the sealing cover 7. The air intake assembly includes a vertical air supply pipe 8 and an air intake bend 11. The vertical air supply pipe 8 passes through and is installed at the center of the sealing cover 7, and a control valve 10 is installed at its lower end. The air intake bend 11 is connected to the air intake end of the control valve 10. The vertical air supply pipe 8 passes through to the inside of the mesh center cylinder 5, and multiple sets of exhaust holes 9 are provided on the side wall. A biogas delivery device is connected to the outside of the air intake bend 11. When the control valve 10 is opened, biogas enters the vertical air supply pipe 8 through the air intake bend 11. The biogas is evenly discharged into the mesh center cylinder 5 through the multiple sets of exhaust holes 9, and the biogas evenly enters between the wheat seeds, completely covering all the wheat seeds.
[0034] To sample wheat seeds at different heights in the storage silo, see attached... Figure 5 Appendix Figure 6 and attached Figure 7 As shown, a sampling assembly is installed on the eccentric side of the cover 3. The sampling assembly includes a sampling tube 15 and a central rod 17. Multiple sampling ports 16 are equidistantly arranged on the side wall of the sampling tube 15. The central rod 17 passes through the top of the sampling tube 15 and into the interior of the sampling tube 15. Multiple sealing plugs 18 are installed on the outer side. A lifting block 19 is installed on the top of the central rod 17. The lifting block 19 drives the central rod 17 to move inside the sampling tube 15. Before sampling, the sampling ports 16 are blocked by the sealing plugs 18.
[0035] The eccentric part of the storage cover 3 is provided with a positioning tube 14. The top outer side of the sampling tube 15 is covered with a positioning cover 20. The sampling tube 15 passes through the positioning tube 14 and enters between the inner side of the mesh cover 4 and the outer side of the mesh center cylinder 5. The positioning cover 20 is fitted on the outer side of the positioning tube 14 to position the sampling tube 15. The lifting block 19 drives the central rod 17 to move upward inside the sampling tube 15, which drives multiple sets of sealing plugs 18 to move upward, opening the sampling port 16. Wheat seeds of different heights enter the sampling tube 15 through the sampling port 16. The sealing plugs 18 serve as a partition between each group of samples. The sampling tube 15 does not need to be completely filled with wheat seeds. Moving the sealing plugs 18 downward pushes the wheat seeds downward, blocking the sampling port 16 and preventing the wheat seeds from falling out and re-entering the sampling tube 15 with wheat seeds from other locations. The sampling tube 15 is then pulled out from the positioning tube 14, completing the sampling of wheat seeds of different heights in the storage bin.
[0036] The positioning tube 14 is fitted with a sealing cap 21 on the outside and connected by threads. After sampling, the sealing cap 21 is installed on the outside of the positioning tube 14 to seal and block the positioning tube 14.
