A Pvdf Sensor for Monitoring Grain Loss in Combine Harvester
Résumé
Grain loss sensor is an important monitoring module
to realize the intelligent automatic control in combine harvester.
Polyvinylidene fluoride piezoelectricity film has been one of the most
widely used macromolecule materials at present. Based on its
piezoelectric effect, in this paper, a grain loss monitoring system for
combine harvester by using the PVDF sensor was designed. The system is
composed of the PVDF sensor, intelligent display, SCM and so on. The
working principle was analyzed and the measuring accuracy was dynamic
calibrated in laboratory. The polyvinylidene fluoride piezoelectricity
film was selected as the sensing material and the signal processing
circuit was mainly composed by charge amplifier, band-pass filter. In
order to verify the accuracy of the sensor, the dynamic calibration
experiments were carried out. By adjustment of the feeder's vibration
parameters, the different feeding velocity can be gained. In the dynamic
calibration experiments, the sensor was fixed at the height of 19.5mm
and the fixing angle of 33°~35°, the feeding velocity of 60 80 grain per
second, 1000samples of full grain were randomly selected in the
experiments, and the results indicated the detecting error was less than
5.7%. Using the different mixture ratio of the full grain, the imperfect
grain, short stalk to do multi-group experiments, the result shows that
the sensor can distinguish the grain from the mixture stalks. In the
rig-tests, the monitoring sensor was fixed on the caudal region of the
cylinder concave grid of the combine harvester in order to monitor the
threshing compounds. The precision error of the monitoring sensor in
combine is less than 8% through field experiments. So this advanced
sensor can realize the aim of monitoring the entrainment loss in combine
harvester.
