[0044] Reference Figure 1-6 A seed turning and drying device includes a support column 1, a turning component 3, a rotating component 4, a support component 5, and a locking component 6. A base plate 2 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the support column 1. The turning component 3 is installed at the upper end of the support column 1 to drive the seeds to turn and dry. The rotating component 4 is installed inside the support column 1 to drive the turning component 3 to rotate. The support component 5 is installed inside the support column 1 to ensure the stability of the support column 1. The locking component 6 is installed inside the support component 5 to ensure the stability of the support component 5 after it is unfolded.

[0045] Reference Figure 1-4 The drying assembly 3 includes: a turntable 301 rotatably connected to the upper end of the support column 1; a drying disc 302 fixedly installed on the outer side of the turntable 301; a first rotating shaft 303 rotatably connected to the upper end of the inner side of the drying disc 302; a drying plate 304 fixedly installed on the outer side of the first rotating shaft 303; a heat-conducting plate 305 fixedly installed on the lower end of the inner side of the drying disc 302; a threaded column 306 rotatably connected to the upper end of the inner side of the first rotating shaft 303; a slider 307 threadedly connected to the outer side of the threaded column 306; and a scraper 308 fixedly installed on the outer side of the slider 307. The rotating assembly 4 includes: a second rotating shaft 401 rotatably connected to the upper end of the inner side of the support column 1; a slot 402 opened on the outer side of the second rotating shaft 401; a ball bearing 403 rotatably connected to the lower end of the turntable 301; and a locking ring 404 attached to the upper end of the turntable 301.

[0046] In this invention, when drying seeds, the seeds are poured into the drying tray 302. During drying, the motor at the bottom of the drying tray 302 is activated, driving the first rotating shaft 303 to rotate, which in turn drives the drying plate 304 to rotate. The drying plate 304 has a triangular design at its lower end. As the drying plate 304 rotates, it turns the seeds. Simultaneously, the scraper 308 rotates with the first rotating shaft 303, smoothing the seeds turned over by the drying plate 304. When drying different quantities of seeds, the threaded column 306 is rotated, causing the slider 307 to slide inside the first rotating shaft 303, thereby raising and lowering the scraper 308. This adjusts the scraper 308 to a suitable height, ensuring that seeds of different thicknesses can still be smoothed, facilitating the turning and smoothing of the seeds, ensuring uniform drying, and improving work efficiency. Simultaneously, the position of the scraper 308... Adjustable, it facilitates the drying and leveling of different quantities of seeds. The heat-conducting plate 305 increases the contact area with the sun and conducts heat to the inside of the turning tray 302, improving the drying rate of the seeds. At the same time, the motor inside the support column 1 drives the second rotating shaft 401 to rotate. The turntable 301 is installed on the outside of the second rotating shaft 401 and is inserted into the slot 402. The rotation of the second rotating shaft 401 drives the turntable 301 to rotate, thereby driving the turning and drying components 3 to rotate, ensuring the uniformity of drying of multiple turning and drying components 3 and improving the overall uniformity of seed drying. When it is necessary to remove the seeds, the locking ring 404 on the second rotating shaft 401 is unscrewed to release the lock on the turntable 301. Then, the turntable 301 is removed to remove the turning and drying components 3, which facilitates the removal of seeds and prevents seeds from being placed outside at night and getting damp, thus affecting the seed drying rate.

[0047] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 The support assembly 5 includes: a slot 501 on the outside of the support column 1; a support rod 502 rotatably connected inside the slot 501; an extension rod 503 slidably connected inside the support rod 502; a foot 504 rotatably connected to the lower end of the extension rod 503; a locking nut 505 threadedly connected to the lower end of the support rod 502 on the side away from the central axis; and a pressure plate 506 rotatably connected to the lower end of the locking nut 505. The locking assembly 6 includes: a locking post 601 rotatably connected to the upper end of the support rod 502; a toothed groove 602 on the middle of the outer side of the locking post 601; a locking block 603 engaging at the lower end of the toothed groove 602; a spring 604 between the locking block 603 and the support rod 502; a push block 605 fixedly installed on one side of the locking block 603; and a locking block 606 slidably connected to the lower end of the locking block 603 on one side of the support rod 502.

[0048] In this invention, before drying the seeds, the locking block 606 is slid on the support rod 502 to release the lock on the push block 605. Then, the support rod 502 is rotated. As the support rod 502 rotates, the locking pin 601 presses against the locking block 603, causing the locking block 603 to slide into the support rod 502 and press the spring 604. Simultaneously, the push block 605 slides, thus rotating the support rod 502 out of the slot 501. When the support rod 502 rotates to a certain angle, the spring 604 returns to its original position, causing the locking block 603 to engage in the toothed groove 602. Then, the locking block 606 is slid to lock the seeds. Block 606 blocks the sliding of push block 605, locking the rotation angle of support rod 502 and ensuring its stability. At the same time, loosening the locking nut 505 disengages the pressure plate 506 from the extension rod 503. Then, the extension rod 503 is pulled to bring the base 504 into contact with the ground. Finally, the locking nut 505 is tightened to bring the pressure plate 506 into contact with the extension rod 503, locking the extension rod 503. This provides additional support for support column 1 and allows adjustment of the angle of support rod 502 to accommodate the weight of seeds drying at the top, improving the overall structural stability.
