Abstract
An object of the present invention is to provide a grain transilluminating device capable of detecting all of the cracks whose orientations are variously different depending on grains without causing a sample dish to be rotated. According to the present invention, there is provided a grain transilluminating device causing light to enter a transparent bottom face of a sample dish obliquely from a downside, the device including: a base member; a rotary member rotatably disposed in the base member and having a light source on one lateral side, and provided with a reflective plate reflecting the light from the light source toward the bottom face of the sample dish; and a cover member attached onto the base member to constitute, along with the base member, an outer frame and having an opening part positioned above the rotary member to receive the sample dish, wherein an operating part for rotating operation on the rotary member is provided in the rotary member and an opening is formed in the outer frame, and the operating part is configured to extend outside from the outer frame through the opening and to be swingable with a center of the rotary member being an axis.
