Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of near-infrared grain quality detection technology, and in particular to a portable wheat moisture content detection device based on near-infrared fluorescent ceramics. Background Technology
[0002] Wheat, as an important staple crop, provides a variety of nutrients, including carbohydrates, proteins, and micronutrients. Its quality directly affects processing characteristics and nutritional value, thus necessitating the development of efficient detection methods. While traditional sensory evaluation and instrumental analysis offer a certain level of accuracy, they suffer from limitations such as strong subjectivity and sample destructiveness, making them unsuitable for practical applications. Near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy, with its advantages of speed, non-destructive nature, and ease of operation, has become a reliable analytical tool in the agricultural and food sectors, widely used for the qualitative and quantitative analysis of wheat components. However, existing NIR equipment is bulky, severely restricting its field application; therefore, the development of portable detectors is urgently needed.
[0003] Invention Patent CN119880800A: Employs a semiconductor cooling chip (TEC) in conjunction with a temperature sensor and PID algorithm to maintain the detection area at a constant temperature of 27°C to suppress thermal noise; a double convex lens collimates the divergent light into parallel light and focuses it; after the spectrometer collects the signal, the processing system performs data analysis and display. Invention Patent CN106706556A: Uses an LED light source with a semi-transparent mirror to form a sample / reference dual channel; symmetrically arranged detectors collect diffuse reflection signals within the closed optical path. Invention Patent CN106706557A: Constructs a dual-channel contrast sampling system based on an LED light source, utilizing a standard reflective sphere to generate a uniform diffuse field. Invention Patent CN111812050A: Configured with a 360~2400nm halogen lamp light source; its core innovation lies in the modular interface design and portable hardware integration solution. Invention Patent CN117907228A: Employs a lifting worktable structure and modular sample management components. Invention Patent CN111189795B: Designs a ring-shaped LED array light source, where a photodetector directly receives the reflected light from the sample to replace a spectrometer; the embedded system generates and outputs a quality distribution map. Invention Patent CN112304896B: Integrates six broadband halogen lamp beads; the sample is transmitted through a quartz glass sample box, and a reflector focuses the light onto a fiber optic collimating lens; the embedded computer converts the light intensity values collected by the spectrometer into absorbance, processes the data using an algorithm, and outputs the results on a display screen.
[0004] While the aforementioned patents reduce light source errors through multi-channel calibration and closed optical paths, they suffer from drawbacks such as light intensity attenuation, complex assembly and debugging, high cost, large size, and difficult maintenance. The composite hardware (TEC + lens + PID) introduced to improve thermal stability simultaneously increases system power consumption, size, cost, and maintenance difficulty. Although halogen lamp light sources can output a 2400nm spectrum to control costs, the spectrometer's detection limit of only 1032nm results in the ineffective acquisition of long-wavelength signals in the 1032-3400nm range, leading to a waste of spectral resources. While the lift-type structure improves adaptability to various scenarios, it does not fully address issues of measurement accuracy, mechanical stability, and thermal management. Although ring LED array light sources can achieve multi-angle illumination, their spectral range is limited to the visible-near-infrared band (400-1100 nm).
[0005] In conclusion, to solve the above problems, there is an urgent need for an innovative solution that can achieve high-precision and rapid detection while maintaining portability. Utility Model Content

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0026] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown in Embodiment 1, a portable wheat moisture content detection device based on near-infrared fluorescent ceramic includes a microcontroller 6 and a housing 10. The housing 10 has a circular heat dissipation fin 12 for an excitation source inside its cavity. A lens assembly 13 is located in the central hole of the circular heat dissipation fin 12, and an LD excitation source 14 is mounted on the lens assembly 13. A rear cover 15 for encapsulating the circular heat dissipation fin 12 is installed at the rear of the housing 10. A ceramic assembly 11 corresponding to the light-emitting side of the LD excitation source 14 is detachably connected to the housing 10. A ceramic conical heat dissipation fin 4 is also located inside the housing 10, and a focusing cup 3 corresponding to the light-emitting side of the ceramic assembly 11 is located inside the ceramic conical heat dissipation fin 4. A material box assembly 1 is located at the front of the housing 10, and a photosensitive component 2 for receiving detected reflected light is located inside the material box assembly 1. The photosensitive component 2 is electrically connected to the microcontroller 6. The ceramic component 11 is located between the ceramic conical heat dissipation fin 4 and the excitation source circular heat dissipation fin 12, and the ceramic component 11 and the excitation source circular heat dissipation fin 12 are isolated by the outer shell 10, respectively constructing independent heat dissipation paths to achieve efficient management of the dual heat sources and improve the detection accuracy of the device. The ceramic component 11 is detachably mounted on the outer shell 10, allowing for targeted installation of near-infrared fluorescent ceramics according to different detection indicators, thereby improving detection efficiency and stability. The material box component 1, as a closed sample chamber, enables non-destructive testing, is easy to operate, and is highly portable.
[0027] Specifically, the sample to be tested is placed in the material box 1-1, and the device is started. The light emitted from the LD excitation source 14 passes through the lens assembly 13, the ceramic assembly 11, and the condenser cup 3 before being directed towards the material box 1-1. After passing through the wheat moisture in the material box 1-1, the light source transmits the detected reflected light to the photosensitive component 2. The photosensitive component 2, acting as a light signal receiver, transmits the detection signal to the microcontroller 6 to detect the wheat moisture content. The detection process is simple. During this process, the heat generated by the LD excitation source 14 is transferred to the circular heat dissipation fins 12 of the excitation source through the lens assembly 13 for heat dissipation, and the heat from the ceramic assembly 11 is dissipated through the ceramic conical heat dissipation fins 4, resulting in good heat dissipation and stable light source.

The material box assembly 1 includes a material box 1-1. A high-transmittance baffle 1-4 and a high-reflectance baffle 1-5 are detachably connected to the material box 1-1. The high-transmittance baffle 1-4 is located on the side closer to the outer shell 10, and the high-reflectance baffle 1-5 is located on the side away from the outer shell 10. The material box 1-1 forms a material cavity through the high-transmittance baffle 1-4 and the high-reflectance baffle 1-5. Both the high-transmittance baffle 1-4 and the high-reflectance baffle 1-5 are provided with a handle and a functional part. After the functional parts of the high-transmittance baffle 1-4 and the high-reflectance baffle 1-5 are inserted and engaged with the corresponding grooves 1-2 on the material box 1-1, the handles of the high-transmittance baffle 1-4 and the high-reflectance baffle 1-5 extend beyond the outer wall of the material box 1-1. The grooves on groove 1-2 correspond to a high-reflectivity baffle groove and a high-transmittance baffle groove, respectively. Both the high-transmittance baffle 1-4 and the high-reflectivity baffle 1-5 can be inserted into the material box 1-1, enabling the opening and closing of the material box 1-1 for easy placement of materials and replacement of the high-transmittance baffle 1-4 and the high-reflectivity baffle 1-5. A high-transmittance baffle is used near the material box 1-1 and the outer shell 10 to block stray ambient light, while a high-reflectivity baffle guides the light beam into the sample.
[0029] In this embodiment, the photosensitive component 2 includes an annular base 2-1. The inner diameter of the annular base 2-1 is greater than or equal to the maximum inner diameter of the focusing cup 3, facilitating the entry of the light source into the material box 1-1 and avoiding obstruction. The annular base 2-1 is located at the light source inlet / outlet end of the material box 1-1 and is fixed to the material box 1-1 by a high-transmittance baffle 1-4. The annular base 2-1 has an annular InGaAs groove 2-2, and several arrayed InGaAs sensors 2-3 corresponding to the high-reflectivity baffle 1-5 are arranged circumferentially inside the InGaAs groove 2-2. The arrayed InGaAs sensors 2-3 are indium gallium arsenide (IGaAs) array photosensitive sensors. Using IGaAs array photosensitive sensors to replace traditional bulky spectrometers reduces the device size by 80% while extending the spectral response to the 2400nm band, avoiding long-wavelength signal waste, and improving the signal-to-noise ratio by 40%. Preferably, the number of arrayed InGaAs sensors 2-3 is 8. The annular base 2-1 is an InGaAs base, and the annular groove 1-2 is an InGaAs groove.

[0038] In this embodiment, the axial length of the circular heat sink fins of the excitation source is 28 mm, the thickness of the circular heat sink fins of the excitation source is 1.0 mm, and the number of circular heat sink fins is 36.

The InGaAs photosensitive sensors are distributed in a circumferential array in the InGaAs grooves, and the number of InGaAs sensors is 8. This design improves detection efficiency and stability by using a quick-release ceramic component 11 to install near-infrared fluorescent ceramics according to different detection indicators. The LD excitation source 14 and the ceramic component 11 are arranged separately on the left and right sides, respectively constructing independent heat dissipation paths, realizing efficient management of dual heat sources and improving device detection accuracy.
[0039] The material box assembly 1 is installed on the left end of the outer shell 10 via a clip 10-3, and the photosensitive component 2, the condenser cup 3, and the ceramic conical heat sink 4 are fixed therein.

The device opens / closes the material box 1-1 by pulling out the high-reflectance baffle 1-5 to realize the placement and replacement of test samples.
[0040] In this embodiment, the axial length of the circular heat sink fins of the excitation source is 16 mm, the thickness of the circular heat sink fins of the excitation source is 2.0 mm, and the number of circular heat sink fins of the excitation source is 24. The cone angle of the ceramic conical heat sink fins is 36°, the axial length of the ceramic conical heat sink fins is 20 mm, the thickness of the ceramic conical heat sink fins is 2.0 mm, and the number of ceramic conical heat sink fins is 24.

[0043] In this embodiment, the axial length of the circular heat dissipation fins 12 of the excitation source is optimized to 22 mm, the thickness to 1.5 mm, and the number to 30. The cone angle of the ceramic conical heat dissipation fins 4 is set to 33°, the axial length to 25 mm, the thickness to 1.5 mm, and the number to 30. The dual heat dissipation path ensures that the temperature rise ΔT ≤ 2℃. The photosensitive component 2 uses six circumferentially distributed InGaAs sensors 2-3, with the light-transmitting aperture maintained at 30 mm to match the large end diameter of the condenser cup 3. By optimizing the sensor layout and gain algorithm, the effective acquisition of long-wavelength 2400 nm signals is maintained while reducing the number of hardware components.
[0044] The material box assembly 1 is equipped with high-transmittance baffles 1-4 and high-reflectance baffles 1-5 at both ends. The transmittance baffles are made of PMMA material (transmittance ≥92%), and the reflectance baffles are made of LCP + mineral filler (reflectance >95%). Pulling out the high-reflectance baffles 1-5 enables rapid sample changing. The closed double-baffle structure suppresses stray light from the environment. Combined with the optimized signal-to-noise ratio design of the 4-sensor array, the signal-to-noise ratio is still improved by 30% compared to traditional equipment. After a single press of the detection button 10-6, the microcontroller 6 automatically performs dark background correction, spectral acquisition, and PLS analysis, and the moisture value is output to the LCD display 7 in real time. The overall size of the device is maintained at a compact design of 180 mm × 90 mm × 60 mm. The sensor array significantly reduces hardware costs while ensuring a long-wavelength capture capability of 2400 nm.
