SAMPLING DEVICE FOR INTRODUCING INDIVIDUALIZED SEED GRAINS INTO A MEASURING DEVICE, SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SORTING A PLURALITY OF SEED GRAINS, AND USE THEREOF
The invention relates to a system (110) and a method for sorting a plurality (112) of seed grains (114). The system (110) comprises an individualizing device (120), a sampling device (132) for introducing the individualized seed grains (114) into a measuring device (136) in order to classify the individualized seed grains (114), a receiving device (146, 200) for receiving the classified seed grains (114), and a transport device (118, 124, 134, 144, 152) for at least partly pneumatically transporting the seed grains (114). The invention further relates to the sampling device (132) which comprises an outer tube (160) for receiving the sampling device (132) in the measuring device (136). A sample chamber (138) of the measuring device (136) is provided within a volume (164) of the outer tube (160). The sampling device (132) further comprises an inner tube (162) which is inserted into the outer tube (160) and has a lower opening (166) through which the individualized seed grains (114) can be introduced into the vo
