15、 member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, gover

16、nmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC D

17、irectives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member

18、bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 7971 (all parts) was prepared by the European Committee for Standardizatio

20、 and replaces the first edition (ISO 7971-1:2003), which has been revised to take account of ISO 7971-2:2009.

22、ence method 1 Scope This part of ISO 7971 specifies the reference method for the determination of bulk density, called “mass per hectolitre”, of cereals as grain. NOTE Several routine methods are used in different countries. A routine method for the determination of bulk density, called “mass per he

23、ctolitre”, is given in ISO 7971-3. 2 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 2.1 bulk density “mass per hectolitre” cereals ratio of the mass of a cereal to the volume it occupies after being poured into a container under well-defined condi

24、tions NOTE 1 Bulk density is expressed in kilograms per hectolitre of grain as received. NOTE 2 The bulk density, as defined in this part of ISO 7971, is different from “packing density” or “intrinsic density” of cereals. 3 Principle A sample is poured in a controlled manner from a hopper into a 20

25、l container, which is then weighed. 4 Requirements for apparatus 4.1 General The apparatus used shall comply with the following requirements, which correspond to those in OIML R 15 2, and shall be similar to that shown in Figure 1.

The pre-filling measure has a nominal volume of 24 l. Its internal form is a right circular cylinder with height approximately equal to its diameter. 4.2

30、.2 Filling hopper. The hopper has the shape of a truncated vertical circular cone surmounted by a cylindrical rim. Its lower part terminates in an axial tube with a slightly tapering bore, the wider end of which is at the bottom. A shutter, hinge-mounted on the tube and able to close the tube comple

31、tely, controls the emptying process. The hopper receives from the pre-filling container a quantity of grain greater than the content of the measuring container. 4.2.3 Distributor. The distributor is an inverted circular mushroom-shaped element connected to the bottom end of a vertical rod positioned

32、 in the axis of the hopper. The rod lowers the distributor inside the tapered tube to an adjustable level from top to bottom to allow adjustment of the apparatus: lowering the distributor increases the rate of flow of the grain, which collects in greater quantity owing to compaction in the measuring

33、 container, thus giving higher results; conversely, the results are lower when the distributor is raised. 4.2.4 Measuring container. The measuring container has a nominal volume of 20 l. Its internal form is a right circular cylinder with height approximately equal to its diameter. Its upper edge is

34、 ground flat. 4.2.5 Base support for the measuring container. A base on rails supports the container and allows it to travel underneath the hopper, in the axis of which it can be locked, or taken out of the chassis for easy removal. 4.2.6 Protection and guiding collar for grain flow. A cylindrical c

35、ollar, of the same diameter as the measuring container, is placed between the hopper and the measuring container, leaving a horizontal space between its lower edge and the upper edge of the container to allow the passage of a straightedge. During filling, the collar, which is surmounted by a truncat

36、ed cone-shaped section, protects the grain as it drops and at the end retains the surplus grain. 4.2.7 Straightedge (levelling blade). The straightedge is a flat, thin but rigid steel blade, sharpened to the form of an open V at the front. It is fixed horizontally in a frame mounted on rollers and d

37、riven in its plane by a counterweight. BS EN ISO 7971-1:2009ISO 7971-1:2009(E) 4 ISO 2009 All rights reservedThe frame guides the straightedge across the grain in the gap between the collar and the upper edge of the measuring container. The movement shall be continuous and not jerky, and the straigh

38、tedge shall touch neither the collar nor the container. In its movement, the straightedge levels the grain to the level of the measuring container, thus giving a determined volume. 4.2.8 Collecting box for surplus grain. At the same time as levelling the grain, the straightedge also closes off the l

39、ower surface of the collar as it removes from the container any grain surplus to its volume. When the straightedge is drawn back, with the container removed, this surplus grain falls into a collecting box placed beneath the base of the container and towards which the grain is guided by a skirt. 4.2.

40、9 Overall assembly. The apparatus is assembled in a rigid chassis equipped with a verticality adjustment screw; verticality is checked by means of a plumbline or a spirit-level. The hopper with its tube and distributor, the collar and the measuring container shall be coaxial and positioned verticall

41、y by means of the adjustment device described above, the upper edge of the measuring container thus being horizontal. 4.2.10 Weighing device. The grain contained in the measuring container is weighed using a non-automatic balance which has been weighted to compensate for the mass of the empty contai

42、ner. Therefore, one single weighing gives the mass of the grain. The error of the balance shall not exceed 0,01 % of load between 10 kgf and 20 kgf or, when using weights, the sum of errors of weights shall not exceed 0,02 %. 4.3 Dimensions 4.3.1 Pre-filling container This shall have the following d
