The following specification particularly describes the invention and the manner in which it is to be performed:
[001] The present invention relates to the field of methods of drying grains in agricultural farms, more particularly, related to an IOT based solar powered dryer system.
[002] Solar agricultural commodity drying is important and the most effective solution to the world's food crisis includes reducing food loss, which happens due to different factors such as lack of adequate machinery, insufficient planting and fertilization, lack of marketing outlets, inappropriate shipping, high losses after harvest, etc., causing a 10 to 40 percent loss of food. Market research is carried out to consider the drying issue by engaging with the farmers and to determine the affordability of farmers. The different problems that farmers face when drying their products, including multiple forms of drying requirements, are described.
[003] WO2012156768A1 relates to an improved solar dryer which consists of a solar absorber/collector and a drying chamber, one end of the collector is connected to a forced draft fan and the other end connects the drying chamber. The drying chamber has a drawer in which the material to be dried is kept on a wire mesh. However, this invention is quite different from the disclosed invention.
[004] US20140047726A1 relates to an apparatus, system, and method for the drying of particulate agricultural matter, especially particulate crops, such grains. The present invention provides a crop particulate (i.e., grain) drying system utilizing solar energy to heat a heat transfer fluid or solution within concomitant forced-air and radiant heat systems which pass heated air through a crop particulate material contained within a conventional crop silo or bin.
However, this invention has a complex design and is quite different from the disclosed invention.
[005] US20150020408A1 relates to a system for drying or heating product using solar energy including an enclosure defining a kiln chamber in which a charge of the product is placed, the enclosure having at each side of the chamber at least one passage through which air from the kiln chamber can pass to be heated by solar energy impinging on the enclosure, and an air flow system having at least one fan for generating a circulating air flow within the kiln chamber.
[006] The present invention addresses the above shortcomings of the prior art. However, the present invention is entirely different from the prior art in terms of novelty and technological advancement.
[0071 The present invention discloses an IOT based solar powered dryer system with the assistance of ESP 32 module. In the present invention, heating coil controller (96) controls the coil and heating chamber for drying the grains. Also, sensor module comprises of temperature (14), humidity (13) and moisture sensor (11). Here, ESP 32 (12) module is employed for communicating the information over the internet.
[008] In one implementation, sensor module, heating coil controller and motor controller are the three main units used in the present invention.
[009] In one of the implementations, solar panel-based power supply (101) is employed in this system for energy conservation along with external power supply (102).
[0010] The foregoing detailed description of embodiments is better understood when read in conjunction with the attached drawing.
[0011] Figure 1 illustrates the schematic illustration of the present invention.
[0012] Figure 2 illustrates the block diagram of the components used in the sensor module of the present invention.
[00131 All figures depict an embodiment of the present disclosure for the purpose of illustration and better understanding only.
[0014] Some embodiments of this disclosure, illustrating all its features, will now be discussed in detail.
[0015] The present disclosure provides a solution for drying the grains in agricultural farms. The present invention discloses an IOT based solar powered dryer system with the assistance of ESP 32 module. The present invention consists of a sensor module with ESP 32(95), heating coil controller (96), motor controller (97), motor driver (99) and relay (100), cloud server (98), solar panel based power supply (101) and external power supply (102). Dryer machine is used in the agricultural for checking and drying the grains with respect to the moisture level.
[0016] In one embodiment, sensor module (95), heating coil controller (96) and motor controller (97) are the three main units of the present invention.
[00171 In another embodiment, solar panel-based power supply (101) is embedded in this system for energy conservation along with external power supply (102).
[0018] In an exemplary embodiment, heating coil controller (96) controls the coil and heating chamber for drying the grains.
[0019] In yet another embodiment, motor controller (97) controls the DC fans and conveyor belt for drying the grains.
[00201 In another embodiment, sensor module comprises of temperature (14), humidity (13) and moisture sensor (11). The moisture sensor (11) and humidity (13) sensor senses the moisture level and humidity of the grains respectively.
[00211 In one of the embodiments, the temperature of the chamber is sensed through the temperature sensor (14) with respect to sensors parameters.
[0022] In another embodiment, weighing sensor (15) is used for sensing the quantity of the grains that is drained by the machine.
[00231 In yet another embodiment, ESP 32 (12) module is employed for communicating the information over the internet.
