Description

The utility model relates to the processing of seed material with a low-frequency electromagnetic field and can be used in agriculture.

There is a method of increasing the sowing and phytosanitary qualities of coniferous seeds using low-frequency electromagnetic fields (Smirnov, A.I. The use of low-frequency electromagnetic fields to increase the sowing and phytosanitary qualities of coniferous seeds [Electronic resource]. URL: http: //www.science- bsea.bgita.ru/2013/les_2013/smirnov_isp.htm), which consists in using a low-frequency generator when processing dry seeds. A generator is a device that generates an electromagnetic field with a frequency of 1 Hz to 16 Hz with characteristics perceived by the cells of the seed as control. However, the proposed design can only be used in laboratory conditions for processing seeds in single volumes.

Also known is a screw loader (Auger Loader [Electronic resource]. URL: https://ventoprom.com.ua/product/pogruzchik-shnekovyj), made in the form of a mobile structure and containing a screw mounted on a wheeled chassis and a loading hopper. The auger is located in the chute and has an electric drive motor. Grain is taken from the hopper and fed by the auger along the chute. This device provides only grain supply and does not provide for any additional processing.

Also known "Installation for processing seeds in a magnetic field" (application: 97110904/13 dated 06/27/1997), containing a seed treatment chamber, covered by an electromagnet, and a device placed inside the chamber for transporting seeds. In this case, the chamber is made in the form of a screw with a vertical axis, which provides an adjustable grain supply to the hopper. The screw part of the screw is made of dielectric and touches the electromagnet with its outer side of the stator. Thanks to this design of the installation, the magnetization of the seeds is ensured when passing along the electromagnet.

The disadvantage of this solution is the impossibility of measuring the intensity and gradient of the magnetic field in the seed treatment zone, as well as changes in the characteristics of the magnetic field, which is extremely important for the processing of various seeds.

The technical result of the utility model is the creation of a device for stimulating seeds to germination, adapted to changing the characteristics of the magnetic field, depending on the initial quality of the seeds and their state at the time of processing.

The specified technical result is achieved with the help of a device for stimulating seeds to germination, containing a chamber mounted on a wheeled chassis for processing seeds and including an intake bell; an exit window and a screw device for transporting seeds located inside the chamber, providing an adjustable grain supply and made of dielectric materials, characterized in that generators of a low-frequency electromagnetic field are installed on the outer wall of the chamber for seed treatment, and a control unit for generators of a low-frequency electromagnetic field is located on the chassis and feeding grain by a screw device.

Such a constructive solution of the device for stimulating seeds to germination makes it adapted to changing the modes of treatment of the seed, depending on its type and condition. The magnetization mode is varied by changing the number of connected generators of a low-frequency electromagnetic field; characteristics of the generated field on each generator separately, as well as the rotational speed of the auger. In addition, the use of a mobile structure ensures the applicability of the proposed device for mass seed treatment.

For the convenience of working with the device, all modes of magnetization can be identified with an indication of possible applications for a particular seed and its state.

We have not found such a design of a device for stimulating seeds to germination in the patent and scientific and technical literature.

Figure 1 shows a general view of a device for stimulating seeds to germinate.

The device for stimulating seeds to germination contains a wheeled chassis 1 with a chamber for processing seeds 2 installed on it.

The chamber for seed treatment 2 has an intake socket 3 and an outlet window 4. Inside the chamber for seed treatment 2 there is an auger device for transporting seeds 5, which provides an adjustable grain supply from the intake funnel 3 to the outlet window 4.

The auger device for transporting seeds 5 is made of dielectric materials to prevent residual magnetization and displacement of the seed treatment modes and has a drive 6, which provides a change in the rotational speed of the auger 7.

In addition, generators of a low-frequency electromagnetic field 8 are installed on the outer wall of the seed treatment chamber 2, which ensure the magnetization of seeds with a predetermined treatment mode.

The control unit 9 provides a preset magnetization mode by changing the number of connected generators of a low-frequency electromagnetic field 8; characteristics of the generated field on each generator separately, as well as changing the rotational speed of the drive 6 of the auger 7.

The device for stimulating seeds to germinate works as follows.

The wheeled chassis 1 is supplied to the seed stored in heaps and is fixed in such a way that the intake bell 3 is immersed in the seed to be taken. Depending on the type and condition of the seeds, the magnetization mode is selected and set by the control unit 9.

The drive 6 starts the rotation of the auger 7, and the seeds are taken into the auger device for transporting seeds 5. Passing along the walls of the seed treatment chamber 2, in the zone of the low-frequency electromagnetic field generators 8, the seeds are magnetized.

The magnetized seeds, driven by the auger device for transporting seeds 5, enter the exit window 4, through which they fall out of the seed treatment chamber 2 to the place of further storage and / or use.

Such a constructive solution to the device for stimulating seeds to germination makes it adaptable to changing the modes of seed treatment depending on its type and condition, and also ensures the applicability of the proposed device for mass seed treatment.
