Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of tree transplanting machines, specifically relating to a garden landscape tree transplanting machine. Background Technology

[0002] Landscape tree transplanting machines, often called "tree transplanting machines" or "tree transplanting machines," are mechanical devices specifically designed for landscaping and urban landscape construction. Their core function is to transplant trees with their root balls intact, which involves digging up the trees along with the soil around their roots, transporting them to a new location, and then replanting them in the soil. This maximizes the protection of the root system, reduces tree damage, and thus improves the survival rate of transplanted trees.

[0003] Most mainstream transplanters (such as vehicle-mounted and suspended equipment) adopt a basic design logic of "surround clamping mechanism + hydraulic lifting": the trunk is fixed from the lower part of the tree by an openable mechanical arm, and then the digging device is used to complete the digging of the root ball and the overall lifting. However, this design has obvious shortcomings when dealing with tall trees, namely the mismatch between the clamping point position and the center of gravity height. Because the mass distribution of the above-ground part of tall trees is more concentrated at the top, and the clamping mechanism usually cannot extend to the middle and upper part of the trunk, the actual clamping point is located at a lower position of the tree's overall center of gravity. When the equipment is lifted or transported, the tree is prone to "top-heavy" swaying due to the shift in the center of gravity, which manifests as large swaying of the crown, uneven force on the clamping arm, or even detachment. This not only threatens the safety of the operators, but may also cause accidents such as bark abrasion, loosening of the root ball, or equipment tipping over. Summary of the Invention

[0017] Preferably, the sleeve mechanism includes a connecting seat, a first sleeve ring is mounted on the outside of the connecting seat, a second sleeve ring is rotatably connected to the outside of the first sleeve ring, and a first extension cylinder is installed between the first sleeve ring and the second sleeve ring. The first extension cylinder is used to open and close the first sleeve ring and the second sleeve ring.

[0018] Preferably, the lifting mechanism includes a mounting base, a first cylinder is fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the mounting base, a connecting plate is fixedly connected to the output end of the first cylinder, a limiting rod is inserted through the connecting plate, a second cylinder is provided on the outside of the connecting plate, and a telescopic sleeve is fixedly connected to the output end of the second cylinder.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0021] (1) The present invention, through the setting of the second mounting plate, the second extension cylinder, the fixing plate and the rotating roller, enables the tree to be clamped and fixed by the clamping mechanism. At this time, through the operation of the second extension cylinder, the sliding sleeve can be slidably extended on the sliding groove.

[0022] (2) The present invention, through the installation base, the first cylinder, the connecting plate and the limiting rod, enables the clamping mechanism to perform a top extension operation on the connecting plate after clamping the tree during tree transplantation, so that the connecting plate can be adjusted horizontally on the limiting rod. Furthermore, the second cylinder can adjust the height of the clamping mechanism by extending the telescopic sleeve, thereby raising and lowering the tree. Thus, the tree can be finely adjusted horizontally and automatically raised and lowered during transplantation, which effectively improves the accuracy and convenience of tree transplantation.

[0030] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0031] Example 1:

[0032] Please see Figures 1-6 As shown, a garden tree transplanting machine includes:

[0033] Mounting bracket 1;

[0034] Lifting mechanism 2, which is installed on the top of the mounting frame 1;

[0035] Clamping mechanism 3, which is installed outside the lifting mechanism 2;

[0036] The sleeve mechanism 4 is fixedly connected to the outer side wall of the mounting frame 1;

[0037] Support mechanism 5 is disposed outside the sleeve mechanism 4. The support mechanism 5 includes a second mounting plate 501. A second extension cylinder 502 is mounted on the outside of the second mounting plate 501. A sliding groove 503 is formed on the outside of the second mounting plate 501. A sliding sleeve 504 is inserted into the inside of the sliding groove 503. An elastic connector 505 is mounted on the outside of the sliding sleeve 504. A hinge rod 506 is hinged to the outside of the elastic connector 505. One end of the hinge rod 506 is connected to the second mounting plate 501.

[0038] A rolling mechanism 6 is connected to the top end of an elastic connector 505. The rolling mechanism 6 includes a fixed plate 601, on which rotating rollers 602 are mounted. Multiple supporting rollers 603 are provided on the inner side wall of the fixed plate 601. An abutting track 604 is sleeved on the outside of the rotating rollers 602. The rolling mechanism 6 is elastically telescopically connected to the elastic connector 505. Two sets of hinge rods 506 are provided on the outside of the second mounting plate 501, and both sets of hinge rods 506 are rotatably connected to the outside of the rolling mechanism 6. The top end of the elastic connector 505 is rotatably connected to the outside of the rolling mechanism 6. The elastic connector 505 is rotatably connected to the outside of a sliding sleeve 504. The sliding sleeve 504 is slidably connected inside a sliding groove 503. The elastic connector 505 is elastically telescopically connected to the rolling mechanism 6.

[0039] Specifically, the hinge rod 506 is used to support the rolling mechanism 6. When the sliding sleeve 504 slides on the sliding groove 503, it extends the elastic connector 505. At this time, through the hinge rotation between the rolling mechanism 6 and the hinge rod 506, the rolling mechanism 6 can be adjusted and moved outward to clamp the tree.

[0040] As can be seen from the above, during the operation of the tree transplanter, the tree is first firmly clamped and fixed by the clamping mechanism 3 to ensure the initial stability of the tree during transplantation. Then, through the jacking action of the second jacking cylinder 502, the sliding sleeve 504 is driven to perform a precise sliding jacking operation along the sliding groove 503. This sliding jacking action effectively transmits mechanical power to the subsequent support structure. Simultaneously, through the hinged connection design between the elastic connector 505 and the rolling mechanism 6, the rolling mechanism 6 can flexibly rotate around the hinge rod 506 under the action of the jacking force, thereby realizing the support deployment operation of the rolling mechanism 6 towards the outside of the tree, ultimately forming a surrounding elastic clamping structure for the tree. This surrounding elastic clamping method not only significantly improves the overall stability of the tree during transplantation, but also... It can also provide reliable and uniform support force distribution for trees on the transplanter; in particular, when the trees are lifted and lowered during the transplanting process, the continuous rolling rotation of the abutment track 604 on the rotating roller 602 ensures that the abutment track 604 is always in close contact with the surface of the tree and rolls synchronously with it. This dynamic contact mechanism allows the rolling mechanism 6 to intelligently adapt to the slight changes in the surface of the tree, thereby maintaining stable support contact during the lifting and lowering movement of the tree during transplanting; through this innovative structural design, the "top-heavy" swaying problem caused by the shift of the tree's center of gravity during traditional transplanting is effectively solved, greatly improving the safety and stability of tree transplanting operations, ensuring that the trees remain in a balanced state throughout the lifting, transportation and lowering process, and significantly reducing the risk of damage during transplanting.

[0041] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, the outer side of the abutting track 604 is provided with anti-slip strips, and the inner sidewall of the abutting track 604 is provided with rack grooves. The rotating roller 602 is meshed with the abutting track 604. The abutting track 604 abuts against the surface of the tree trunk. The clamping mechanism 3 includes a first mounting plate 301. A reduction motor 302 is mounted on the bottom end of the first mounting plate 301. A rotating gear 303 is fixedly connected to the output end of the reduction motor 302. A meshing gear 304 meshes with the outer side of the rotating gear 303. Both the rotating gear 303 and the meshing gear 304 are rotatably connected to the outer side of the first mounting plate 301. A clamping ring is fixedly connected to the outer side of both the rotating gear 303 and the meshing gear 304.

[0042] Specifically, by rotating the roller 602 on the abutting track 604, the abutting track 604 can be rolled on the tree trunk surface. The supporting roller 603 can effectively support the abutting track 604. The anti-slip strip on the abutting track 604 can increase the friction between the abutting track 604 and the tree, preventing the abutting track 604 from slipping after abutting on the tree. After the rotating gear 303 and the meshing gear 304 mesh, the clamping ring can clamp the tree, which facilitates the lifting and lowering of the tree during transplanting.

[0043] Example 2:

[0044] refer to Figures 1-6 As shown, the sleeve mechanism 4 includes a connecting seat 401, a first collar 402 is mounted on the outside of the connecting seat 401, a second collar 403 is rotatably connected to the outside of the first collar 402, a first extension cylinder 404 is installed between the first collar 402 and the second collar 403, and the first extension cylinder 404 is used to open and close the first collar 402 and the second collar 403. The lifting mechanism 2 includes a mounting seat 201, a first cylinder 202 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting seat 201, and the output end of the first cylinder 202... A connecting plate 203 is fixedly connected, and a limiting rod 204 is inserted through the connecting plate 203. A second cylinder 205 is provided on the outside of the connecting plate 203. A telescopic sleeve 206 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second cylinder 205. A limiting slide rod is also provided on the outside of the connecting plate 203. The limiting slide rod is inserted into the telescopic sleeve 206. The telescopic sleeve 206 is slidably connected on the limiting slide rod. The connecting plate 203 is slidably connected on the limiting rod 204. One side of the limiting rod 204 is fixedly connected to the outside of the mounting base 201.

[0045] Specifically, the operation of the first extension cylinder 404 enables the second sleeve ring 403 to open on the first sleeve ring 402, thereby facilitating the installation of the device on the tree. The operation of the first cylinder 202 and the second cylinder 205 enables the telescopic sleeve 206 to move horizontally and vertically, realizing the adjustment and control of the tree during transplantation. The limiting rod 204 and the limiting slide rod inserted inside the telescopic sleeve 206 can improve the stability of the telescopic sleeve 206 during movement.

[0046] As can be seen from the above, in the mechanized tree transplanting process, the target tree is first precisely clamped and fixed by the clamping mechanism 3 to ensure the initial stability of the tree during transplantation. Subsequently, the connecting plate 203 connected to it is driven to make precise horizontal extension and retraction adjustment along the limiting rod 204 through the directional extension action of the first cylinder 202. This adjustment process ensures that the movement trajectory of the connecting plate 203 is strictly controlled in the horizontal direction through the guiding action of the limiting rod 204, thereby achieving precise fine-tuning of the tree's position in the X-axis or Y-axis direction. At the same time, through the cooperative work of the second cylinder 205, the telescopic sleeve 206 is extended vertically. This extension action is ultimately transformed into the vertical lifting and lowering adjustment control of the clamping mechanism 3 as a whole through the mechanical transmission structure of the telescopic sleeve 206, so that the clamped tree can rise or fall smoothly. Displacement; This dual-degree-of-freedom adjustment system, composed of a first cylinder 202 and a second cylinder 205, not only enables precise three-dimensional spatial positioning of trees during transplantation, but also allows for automated and precise adjustment of the tree's position and height according to actual transplantation needs. In particular, this adjustment mechanism allows operators to adjust the tree's spatial posture in real time based on the actual location of the transplanting pit, terrain elevation differences, or planting plan requirements, ensuring precise alignment between the tree's root system and the transplanting pit. This mechatronic intelligent adjustment system effectively solves the problems of low positioning accuracy, cumbersome operation, and high labor intensity in traditional manual transplantation, significantly improving the positioning accuracy, ease of operation, and overall work efficiency of tree transplantation operations. At the same time, it reduces the reliance on the operator's experience level, providing reliable technical support for standardized and large-scale tree transplantation projects.

The specific connection methods for each part all employ conventional methods such as bolts, rivets, and welding, which are mature technologies in the prior art. The machinery, parts, and equipment all use conventional models in the prior art, and the circuit connections also use conventional connection methods in the prior art, which will not be detailed here. Any content not described in detail in this specification belongs to the prior art known to those skilled in the art.
