A filter screen 403 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the exhaust pipe 402. A top cap 404 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the exhaust pipe 402 above the filter screen 403. The other end of the ventilation pipe 401 passes through the side wall of the chamber 1 and is fixedly connected to the air outlet pipe of the fan 405.
[0030] Ventilation holes 4011 are provided on the outer wall of the ventilation pipe 401.
[0031] Among them, the fan 405 and the temperature and humidity sensor 311 are both electrically connected to the background PLC controller.
[0032] The fixed card 304 and the movable card 306 are respectively provided with a first arc-shaped groove 3041 and a second arc-shaped groove 3061.
[0033] The adjusting component 310 includes a movable sleeve 3101 sleeved on the mounting rod 309. A limiting screw 3102 is threadedly connected to the side of the movable sleeve 3101. The bottom end of the limiting screw 3102 penetrates the wall of the movable sleeve 3101 and can press against the surface of the mounting rod 309. An extension block 3103 is fixedly connected to the side of the movable sleeve 3101. An internal threaded hole 3104 is opened on the extension block 3103. The internal threaded hole 3104 is connected to the external thread of the temperature and humidity sensor 311.
[0034] The upper part of the compartment 1 is equipped with a detachable top cover 5.
[0035] The upper side wall of the hopper 1 is provided with mounting holes 101 that are compatible with the bearing rod 301, and the two ends of the bearing rod 301 are threaded with nuts 3011.
[0036] Working principle: Before pouring grain into the silo 1, the monitoring component 3 is installed. Specifically, the following steps are taken: First, insert the sliding sleeve 302 into the bearing rod 301. Then, pass both ends of the bearing rod 301 through the mounting holes 101 on the side wall of the silo 1. Next, install nuts 3011 on the external threads of both ends of the bearing rod 301. The two nuts 3011 will clamp the bearing rod 301 between the silo 1 sections. Then, move the sliding sleeve 302 to a suitable position on the bearing rod 301 and tighten the clamping screw 303. This clamping screw 303 will fix the sliding sleeve onto the bearing rod 301 to prevent slippage. Finally, attach the movable sleeve 3101 to the mounting rod 309 and... The tube 3101 is moved to a suitable position on the mounting rod 309 and the limiting screw 3102 is tightened, so that the limiting screw 3102 fixes the movable sleeve 3101 on the mounting rod 309. Then, the external thread of the temperature and humidity sensor 311 is connected to the internal thread hole 3104. Then, the upper end of the mounting rod 309 is placed between the first arc groove 3041 and the second arc groove 3061. Then, the screw 308 is turned, so that the screw 308 rotates on the thread hole 307 and drives the movable locking block 306 to move closer to the fixed locking block 304. The screw 308 is turned until the movable locking block 306 presses the upper end of the mounting rod 309 against the fixed locking block 304. Then, the screw 308 is turned and tightened.
[0037] The grain seeds are then poured into the silo 1 until it is full. The top cover 5 is then installed on top of the silo 1. The temperature and humidity sensor 311 transmits the temperature and humidity data of the grain inside the silo 1 to the PLC controller. The PLC controller then controls the fan 405 to ventilate the ventilation duct 401 according to preset thresholds, thus regulating the temperature and humidity of the grain. It is important to note that the fan 405 integrates a dehumidification module, which removes moisture from the drawn-in outside air, ensuring that dry air is delivered into the ventilation duct 401.
