DEVICE FOR ULTRAVIOLET TREATMENT OF GRAIN BEFORE SPROUTING Russian patent published in 2020 - IPC A01C1/00 

FIELD: agriculture.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to agriculture. Disclosed is an apparatus for ultraviolet treatment of grain before sprouting, consisting of a bin, an ultraviolet lamp, an electric drive with a reduction gear, an unloading compartment. To ensure movement of grain from loading zone to compartment for unloading, as well as constant change of orientation of grain relative to ultraviolet lamp there is a screw. In order to vary the treatment dose, it is possible to change the screw rotation frequency. In order to change the screw rotation frequency, a control panel is provided. Auger is located in casing, upper part of casing is open, casing cover is installed above casing, cover casing is made with possibility of opening. For disinfection and stimulation of grain before sprouting, there is an ultraviolet lamp. To increase utilization coefficient of ultraviolet flux on inner surface of jacket there is a reflecting coating, inner surface of cover of cover is made with reflective coating.

EFFECT: device provides high efficiency of grain processing.
