[0029] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.

[0030] The following describes an embodiment of the steel plate grain silo of this utility model with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0031] like Figures 1-10 As shown, the steel plate grain silo of this utility model embodiment may include: silo body 1, mounting frame 2, sampling mechanism 3 and collection mechanism 4.

[0032] Among them, a support frame 101 is provided at the lower part of the silo body 1.

[0033] It should be noted that the silo body 1 described in this embodiment is made of galvanized steel plate, which has good rust resistance. The silo body 1 consists of a silo top, silo walls and silo bottom. The silo top is provided with a feed inlet and the silo bottom is provided with a discharge outlet.

[0034] Mounting bracket 2 is connected to the upper side of the compartment 1.

[0035] It should be noted that the mounting bracket 2 described in this embodiment is welded and fixed to the chamber body 1.

[0036] The sampling mechanism 3 is located between the mounting frame 2 and the silo 1. The sampling mechanism 3 includes a first sampling tube 301, a second sampling tube 302, an adjustment part 303, and a guide hopper 304.

[0037] The first sampling tube 301 is installed at the lower part of the mounting frame 2, and extends into and through the silo body 1. The second sampling tube 302 is disposed inside the first sampling tube 301, and one end of the second sampling tube 302 passes through the mounting frame 2 and is rotatably connected to the mounting frame 2. The adjustment part 303 is disposed at the upper part of the mounting frame 2 and is connected to one end of the second sampling tube 302. The guide hopper 304 is disposed inside the second sampling tube 302.

[0038] It should be noted that the connection between the first sampling tube 301 and the top and bottom of the silo described in this embodiment is sealed by a sealing ring. The upper end of the first sampling tube 301 is fixed to the lower part of the mounting frame 2 by bolts, and the second sampling tube 302 is rotatably connected to the mounting frame 2 by a bearing.

[0039] Under normal conditions, the first sampling tube 301 and the second sampling tube 302 are in a misaligned and closed state, and the grain will not enter the interior of the second sampling tube 302. The adjusting part 303 is used to drive the second sampling tube 302 to rotate intermittently, so that the second sampling tube 302 will cooperate with the first sampling tube 301 to sample the grain at different depths in the warehouse 1 once each rotation.

[0040] The collection mechanism 4 is detachably connected to the lower end of the first sampling tube 301.

[0041] Specifically, after the grains (such as corn and wheat) have been dried and collected, they are transported from the feed inlet to the inside of the silo 1 by a grain elevator, and the grains are stored in the steel plate silo.

[0042] During grain storage, staff can take samples of the grain in warehouse 1 at set intervals for testing and analysis (e.g., sampling once every three days, which can be shortened to once a day during the rainy season) to check for dampness, mold, and pests.

[0043] During sampling, the adjustment unit 303 is activated to drive the second sampling tube 302 to rotate counterclockwise intermittently, with each rotation being 90°. During the first rotation, the grain in the lower part of the silo 1 enters the second sampling tube 302 through the first sampling tube 301 and falls into the collection mechanism 4 with the help of the guide hopper 304. During the second rotation, the grain in the middle of the silo 1 enters the second sampling tube 302 through the first sampling tube 301 and falls into the collection mechanism 4 with the help of the guide hopper 304. During the third rotation, the grain in the upper part of the silo 1 enters the second sampling tube 302 through the first sampling tube 301 and falls into the collection mechanism 4 with the help of the guide hopper 304. During the fourth rotation, the first sampling tube 301 and the second sampling tube 302 are misaligned and closed, preventing grain from entering the first sampling tube 301, thus completing the sampling work.

[0044] At this point, the staff will disassemble the collection device 4 from the first sampling tube 301, take out grain samples from different depths, and conduct observation, testing and analysis to determine whether the grain is damp, moldy or infested with pests, so as to take timely measures to reduce grain loss.

[0045] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 4 and Figure 10 As shown, the surface of the first sampling tube 301 has a plurality of uniformly distributed first through holes 3011 along the Y-axis.

[0046] There are three first through holes 3011, and they are opened facing the center of the interior of the compartment 1.

[0047] Specifically, the first through hole 3011 is elongated and corresponds to the upper, middle and lower parts of the storage body 1 respectively. The grain in the storage body 1 can enter the second sampling tube 302 through the first through hole 3011, which improves the accuracy of grain detection and enables staff to quickly locate the location of grain mold and pest infestation.

[0048] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the surface of the second sampling tube 302 is provided with a second through hole 3021, a third through hole 3022 and a fourth through hole 3023 from bottom to top. The second through hole 3021 is arranged perpendicular to the orientation of the first through hole 3011, the third through hole 3022 is arranged perpendicular to the orientation of the second through hole 3021, and the fourth through hole 3023 is arranged perpendicular to the orientation of the third through hole 3022.

[0049] The second through hole 3021, the third through hole 3022 and the fourth through hole 3023 are horizontally aligned with the first through hole 3011.

[0050] It should be noted that the dimensions of the second through hole 3021, the third through hole 3022 and the fourth through hole 3023 described in this embodiment are the same as those of the first through hole 3011. When the first sampling tube 301 and the second sampling tube 302 are closed in a staggered manner, the third through hole 3022 is arranged opposite to the first through hole 3011, and the second through hole 3021 is arranged opposite to the fourth through hole 3023.

[0051] It should be noted that the first sampling tube 301 and the second sampling tube 302 described in this embodiment are both made of stainless steel and have polished surfaces. The first sampling tube 301 and the second sampling tube 302 are tightly fitted together so that the grain will not enter the space between the first sampling tube 301 and the second sampling tube 302.

[0052] Specifically, when no sampling is being performed, the first sampling tube 301 and the second sampling tube 302 are set up according to the above positional relationship. The second through hole 3021, the third through hole 3022 and the fourth through hole 3023 do not coincide with the first through hole 3011, so the grain cannot enter the interior of the second sampling tube 302.

[0053] During sampling, the adjusting unit 303 drives the second sampling tube 302 to rotate counterclockwise by 90° once, so that the second through hole 3021 coincides with the lower first through hole 3011. At this time, the grain at the bottom will enter the second sampling tube 302 through the first through hole 3011 and the second through hole 3021. The second sampling tube 302 is rotated counterclockwise once again, so that the first through hole 3011 and the second through hole 3021 are closed, and the third through hole 3022 coincides with the middle first through hole 3011. At this time, the grain in the middle will enter the second sampling tube 302 through the first through hole 3021. 011 and the third through hole 3022 enter the second sampling tube 302; rotate the second sampling tube 302 counterclockwise once again, the first through hole 3011 and the third through hole 3022 close, and the fourth through hole 3023 coincides with the upper first through hole 3011. At this time, the grain above will enter the second sampling tube 302 through the first through hole 3011 and the fourth through hole 3023. Rotate the second sampling tube 302 counterclockwise once for the last time, the first sampling tube 301 and the second sampling tube 302 close in a misaligned manner, and the grain cannot enter.

[0054] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the guide hopper 304 is arranged below the second through hole 3021, and a slot with a quarter circumference is opened on the side of the guide hopper 304 away from the second through hole 3021.

[0055] It should be noted that the feed hopper 304 described in this embodiment is welded to the inner wall of the second sampling tube 302. The grain falls through the trough, and the trough faces a different direction each time the second sampling tube 302 rotates.

[0056] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the adjustment unit 303 includes a grooved wheel 3031, an active dial 3032, and a motor 3033.

[0057] The grooved wheel 3031 is connected to the upper end of the second sampling tube 302, the active dial 3032 is rotatably connected to the upper side of the mounting frame 2 and adapted to the grooved wheel 3031, and the motor 3033 is installed at the lower part of the mounting frame 2 and its output end is connected to the active dial 3032.

[0058] Specifically, the motor 3033 drives the active dial 3032 to rotate clockwise, the active dial 3032 drives the grooved wheel 3031 to rotate counterclockwise intermittently, and the grooved wheel 3031 drives the second sampling tube 302 to rotate counterclockwise intermittently.

[0059] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 2 and Figure 9 As shown, the collection mechanism 4 includes: a collection tube 401, an observation window 402, and a cross-shaped partition 403.

[0060] The collection cylinder 401 is threaded to the lower end of the first sampling tube 301, the observation window 402 is located on one side of the collection cylinder 401, and the cross partition 403 is located inside the collection cylinder 401.

[0061] It should be noted that the cross-shaped partition 403 described in this embodiment divides the inside of the collection cylinder 401 into four equal-sized compartments. The positions of the compartments correspond to the slot positions of the guide hopper 304. Each time the second sampling tube 302 rotates, the slot position will rotate to the upper part of the corresponding compartment, so that grains at different depths can fall into different compartments respectively, realizing the function of sample classification and collection, which is convenient for subsequent testing and analysis by staff. The threaded connection between the collection cylinder 401 and the first sampling tube 301 can realize the quick installation and disassembly of the collection cylinder 401.

[0062] In summary, the steel plate grain silo of this utility model can sample grain in layers through a sampling mechanism and collect different samples by a collection mechanism. This allows subsequent staff to accurately test and analyze the grain samples, and intuitively see the moisture, mold, and pest conditions of the grain at different depths in the silo. This facilitates timely and appropriate measures and greatly reduces potential risks.
