METHOD OF SEPARATION AND TREATMENT OF GRAIN BLENDS Russian patent published in 2005 - IPC

FIELD: agricultural mechanical engineering.

SUBSTANCE: proposed method includes action on grain blend suspended in air space by electric field of corona discharge and electrostatic electric field. Grain blend preliminarily separated in electric field is additionally acted on by magnetic field which is sectionalized into separate sections whose independent axes are shifted in horizontal plane relative to one another. Direction of action of magnetic fields is so selected that forces of magnetic field acting on seeds should coincide with direction of action of forces of electric field.

EFFECT: improved quality of separation and treatment; increased productivity.
