System and method for grading agricultural commodity
10918016 · 2021-02-16 ·

The present invention discloses a system and method for grading agricultural commodity comprising a moisture sensor, a grain apparatus, a conveyor belt driven by motor, a camera to take plurality of images of the agricultural commodity uniformly distributed on the conveyor belt, a communication device for transmitting information to a processor, which processes the image to ascertain the quality parameters of the agricultural commodity and compares with the standards used for grading, a user interface for displaying the information of grading and a printer to print the information of grading. Further, the moisture sensor provides the moisture reading of a sample of agricultural commodity put through the grain apparatus. Furthermore, the parameters are analyzed using image processing technique and compared with the Standard used for grading of the agricultural commodity to ascertain the grading. Additionally, the system can be integrated or several components at different places connected through network.

RAPID ORE ANALYSIS TO ENABLE BULK SORTING USING GAMMA-ACTIVATION ANALYSIS

An apparatus for bulk ore sorting using gamma activation analysis is disclosed. The apparatus includes a conveyor system that includes one or more conveyor belts, surrounded by one or more radiation shields, to transport ore material along a transport path. A pulsed X-ray radiation source is configured to irradiate ore material at an irradiation region and one or more detectors are configured to detect a gamma radiation output from irradiated ore material at a detection region. The transport path has a bend, located between the irradiation region and the detection region, and about a vertical axis, of at least 45 degrees. The one or more detectors are configured to detect a radiation output from the irradiated ore material at times between X-ray pulses of the pulsed X-ray radiation source irradiating the ore material.

CAMELLIA FRUIT SHELLING AND SORTING MACHINE
20190388938 · 2019-12-26 ·

The present invention relates to a camellia fruit shelling and sorting machine, including a sorting belt conveyance trough provided on a frame, the sorting belt conveyance trough is connected with a shelling mechanism through a sorting tank. The sorting belt conveyance trough is provided with a sorting tank, and a sorting guide block and a sorting separate block is provided within the sorting tank. A sorting sweeping block is placed in the inner top of the sorting tank, and the inner top of which is adjacent to the sorting conveyor. Spacing between the sorting sweep block and the sorting belt conveyance trough is greater than one camellia seed but less than two camellia seeds. The sorting separate block is provided with a sorting opening, and the sorting tank is embedded with a sorting push block. The sorting push block is connected with a sorting cylinder moved forwards and backwards on the frame, and the inner side of the sorting push block is embedded with a sorting beam emitter and is provided with a reflected beam receiver. The sorting beam emitter and the reflected beam receiver on the sorting push block of the present invention are used for detection of the camellia seeds, which may separate the inferior camellia seeds to realize the high-efficiency sorting of camellia seeds.
