PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a sampling device that is capable of securely collecting, as a sample, rice or the like to be bagged during a bagging process, and that is high in reliability in, for example, ranking inspection conducted according to a sample.SOLUTION: First, a second actuation piece 13 contacts with a switching lever 15 by the rotation of a cam plate 4 of a sampling device. The switching lever 15 is rotated by the second actuation piece 13 to depress a wire 20. A part of a flow path for rice to be bagged is opened by an opening/closing mechanism incorporated on a grain processing device side connected to the wire 20 so that rice is sent out to a supply tube, and rice to be a sample is charged from the supply tube into a sample container at a standby position. When the second actuation piece 13 is separated from the switching lever 15, the switching lever 15 recovers to stop the supply of grain into the supply container. Then, a turn table 3 is rotationally driven interlocking with the rotation of the cam plate 4 to rotationally convey the next sample container to the standby position of a sample.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3 |
