Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of Solomon's seal transplanting equipment, and in particular to a root protection and fixing device for Solomon's seal transplanting seedlings. Background Technology
[0002] In the cultivation of Solomon's Seal (Polygonatum odoratum), transplanting is a crucial step, and the proper protection of the seedling's root system and the stable fixation of the plant during transplanting directly affect the survival rate and subsequent growth of the Solomon's Seal. However, current Solomon's Seal transplanting techniques have many problems in these two aspects that urgently need to be addressed.
[0003] In traditional Solomon's Seal transplanting methods, the seedling roots are often directly exposed to the soil. During transplanting, the manual digging, handling, and replanting processes easily cause mechanical damage to the roots, such as root breakage and bark scratches. This damage not only affects the roots' ability to absorb water and nutrients but also makes them susceptible to pathogens, significantly reducing the survival rate of the Solomon's Seal seedlings. Furthermore, due to the lack of effective protective measures, subsequent factors such as soil compression and digging by small animals continue to threaten root health and hinder the normal growth and development of the Solomon's Seal.
[0004] Existing methods for plant anchoring also have significant drawbacks. Some growers simply plant the Solomon's Seal seedlings in the soil, relying on the soil's own friction to keep them upright. This method makes the seedlings extremely prone to lodging in harsh weather conditions such as wind and rain. Some simple anchoring devices have a single, non-adjustable structure, making it impossible to flexibly adjust them according to different terrains, soil conditions, and the growth status of the Solomon's Seal seedlings. For example, when planting on slopes, the anchoring devices cannot guarantee vertical stability; as the seedlings grow, the original anchoring angle and support strength become insufficient, resulting in a significant reduction in anchoring effectiveness.
[0005] Furthermore, the materials used in traditional transplanting tools and fixing methods are mostly non-biodegradable. These materials, when left in the soil for extended periods, damage the soil structure, affecting soil aeration and water permeability, thus causing long-term negative impacts on the growth environment of Solomon's seal and surrounding plants. With increasing emphasis on green and sustainable agriculture, the development of environmentally friendly and biodegradable tools that effectively protect the root system of transplanted Solomon's seal seedlings, firmly fix the plants, and are themselves essential is urgently needed. This is of great significance for improving the efficiency of Solomon's seal cultivation and protecting the soil's ecological environment. Utility Model Content
[0006] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a root protection and fixing device for transplanted Solomon's Seal seedlings, which solves the technical problems of easy damage to seedling roots, unstable plant fixing, and non-environmentally friendly materials used in traditional Solomon's Seal transplanting, resulting in low transplant survival rate, affected growth, and damage to the soil environment.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0008] A root protection and fixing device for transplanted Solomon's seal seedlings includes a protective cover, a connecting ring, and a collar.
[0009] Among them, cylinders are rotatably connected to both sides of the outer wall of the collar, and insert rods are movably sleeved in the two cylinders on the collar, with the ends of the insert rods being conical.
[0010] The top of the protective cover is fixedly connected to an installation ring. Two connecting posts are fixed on the upper surface of the connecting ring. The upper ends of the two connecting posts are rotatably connected to the same cylinders. The cylinders on the two connecting posts are respectively movably sleeved with the lower ends of the two insert rods.
[0011] Preferably, each cylinder is threaded with a clamping screw.
[0012] Preferably, both the connecting ring and the mounting ring have four annular arrays of threaded grooves on their sides, and a connecting screw is threaded into each threaded groove on the connecting ring.
[0013] Preferably, the bottom of the connecting ring is provided with an annular groove, the mounting ring is movably engaged in the annular groove, and the four connecting screws are respectively threaded into the four threaded grooves on the mounting ring.
[0014] Preferably, the protective cover has evenly distributed circular ventilation holes with a diameter of 0.5-1 cm on its surface, with a hole spacing of 1-2 cm.
[0015] Preferably, the protective cover is made of biodegradable polylactic acid (PLA) material, and the mounting ring is made of biodegradable PLA material.
[0016] Preferred design: The protective cover is shaped like an inverted frustum, with an upper diameter of 8-12 cm, a lower diameter of 4-6 cm, and a height of 10-15 cm.
[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0018] 1. Through the ingenious connection of the insertion rod, collar, and connecting post, and the adjustable angle and depth design of the insertion rod, this device can be stably fixed in the soil, providing solid support for the Solomon's Seal seedlings. During the seedling's growth period, it can effectively resist external forces such as wind, preventing lodging. When the seedling tilts, the position of the insertion rod can be flexibly adjusted to ensure upright growth, guaranteeing the stability of the Solomon's Seal seedling during its growth process and improving its growth quality.
[0019] Second, the protective cover is made of biodegradable polylactic acid, shaped like an inverted frustum cone with ventilation holes, creating a safe and dedicated growing space for the roots of the Solomon's Seal seedlings. This effectively prevents root damage from soil compression and collisions during transplanting and subsequent growth, while ensuring good gas exchange through the ventilation holes to meet the root's respiration needs, promoting healthy root growth and improving the survival rate of transplanted Solomon's Seal. At the same time, the biodegradable material avoids soil pollution, aligning with the concept of green agriculture. Attached Figure Description

[0027] This application provides a root protection and fixing device for transplanted Solomon's Seal seedlings, which effectively solves the technical problems of easy damage to seedling roots, unstable plant fixing, and non-environmentally friendly materials used in traditional Solomon's Seal transplanting, resulting in low transplant survival rate, affected growth, and damage to the soil environment.
[0028] Example
[0029] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the overall technical solution in this application embodiment is as follows:
[0030] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, this utility model provides a root protection and fixing device for transplanted Solomon's seal seedlings, including a protective cover 1, a connecting ring 2 and a collar 4;
[0031] Among them, cylinders 9 are rotatably connected to both sides of the outer wall of the collar 4, and insert rods 3 are movably sleeved in the two cylinders 9 on the collar 4, with the end of the insert rods 3 being a conical end;
[0032] The top of the protective cover 1 is fixedly connected to an installation ring 5. Two connecting posts 7 are fixed on the upper surface of the connecting ring 2. The upper ends of the two connecting posts 7 are rotatably connected to the same cylinder 9. The cylinders 9 on the two connecting posts 7 are respectively movably sleeved with the lower ends of the two insert rods 3.
[0033] Each cylinder 9 is threaded with a clamping screw 8. The sides of both the connecting ring 2 and the mounting ring 5 have four annularly arranged threaded grooves 6. A connecting screw 10 is threaded into each threaded groove 6 on the connecting ring 2. The bottom of the connecting ring 2 has an annular groove 11, and the mounting ring 5 is movably engaged within this groove. The four connecting screws 10 are threaded into the four threaded grooves 6 on the mounting ring 5, respectively. The mounting ring 5 is then movably engaged into the annular groove 11 at the bottom of the connecting ring 2, ensuring accurate alignment. Subsequently, the connecting screws 10 are screwed into the threaded grooves 6 on the connecting ring 2. Since the mounting ring 5 also has corresponding threaded grooves 6, continuously tightening the connecting screws 10 securely connects the connecting ring 2 and the mounting ring 5 together. Because the mounting ring 5 is fixed to the top of the protective cover 1, this connection method achieves a stable connection between the protective cover 1 and the connecting ring 2.
[0034] The protective cover 1 has evenly spaced circular ventilation holes with a diameter of 0.5-1 cm on its surface, with a hole spacing of 1-2 cm. The protective cover 1 is made of biodegradable polylactic acid (PLA) material. The protective cover 1 is shaped like an inverted frustum of a cone, with an upper diameter of 8-12 cm, a lower diameter of 4-6 cm, and a height of 10-15 cm. The mounting ring 5 is also made of biodegradable PLA material. The cylinders 9 on both sides of the outer wall of the collar 4 and the cylinder 9 at the top of the connecting column 7 can be movably fitted with the insertion rod 3. The two ends of the insertion rod 3 are inserted into the corresponding cylinders 9, and the clamping screws 8 threaded onto the cylinders 9 are used to fix the insertion rod 3. The clamping screws 8 are tightened so that their ends firmly press against the insertion rod 3, preventing the insertion rod 3 from moving or rotating freely within the cylinders 9, thus ensuring the stability of the entire structure.
[0035] Working principle:
[0036] Insert the mounting ring 5 into the annular groove 11 at the bottom of the connecting ring 2, ensuring accurate alignment. Then, screw the connecting screw 10 into the threaded groove 6 on the connecting ring 2. Since the mounting ring 5 also has a corresponding threaded groove 6, tightening the connecting screw 10 securely connects the connecting ring 2 and the mounting ring 5. Because the mounting ring 5 is fixed to the top of the protective cover 1, this connection method achieves a stable connection between the protective cover 1 and the connecting ring 2.
[0037] The cylinders 9 on both sides of the outer wall of the collar 4 and the cylinder 9 at the top of the connecting column 7 can be movably fitted with the insertion rod 3. Insert both ends of the insertion rod 3 into the corresponding cylinders 9, and use the clamping screws 8 threaded onto the cylinders 9 to fix the insertion rod 3. Tighten the clamping screws 8 so that their ends firmly press against the insertion rod 3, preventing the insertion rod 3 from moving or rotating freely within the cylinders 9, thus ensuring the stability of the entire structure.
[0038] Because the end of the insert 3 is tapered, it is easy to insert the insert 3 into the soil of the transplanting site. During the insertion process, the depth of the insert 3 into the soil can be adjusted according to the actual situation to ensure that the entire device can be stably fixed in the transplanting position. At the same time, by rotating the cylinder 9, the angle of the insert 3 can be flexibly adjusted so that the device can adapt to different terrains and soil conditions, ensuring that the protective cover 1 is in a suitable position and angle, providing good protection for the roots of the Solomon's seal seedlings;
[0039] The protective cover 1 is made of biodegradable polylactic acid (PLA) and is shaped like an inverted frustum. When transplanting Solomon's seal seedlings, the roots are placed inside the protective cover 1. The cover provides a relatively independent space for the roots, preventing excessive pressure, collision, and damage from the external soil during transplanting and subsequent growth. Furthermore, the surface of the protective cover 1 has evenly distributed circular ventilation holes with a diameter of 0.5-1 cm and a spacing of 1-2 cm. These holes ensure gas exchange between the roots and the external soil, allowing the roots to breathe sufficient oxygen while releasing carbon dioxide, creating a favorable growth environment. In addition, the PLA material gradually degrades in the soil, causing no pollution to the soil environment and meeting environmental protection requirements.
[0040] After the insertion rod 3 is inserted into the soil, it provides stable support for the entire device. The collar 4 and connecting post 7 are connected to the soil through the insertion rod 3, allowing the protective cover 1 to be firmly fixed in the transplanting position. When the Solomon's seal seedling is subjected to external forces such as wind during its growth, the structure composed of the protective cover 1, collar 4, and insertion rod 3 can withstand a certain amount of external force, preventing the seedling from falling over and ensuring the upright growth of the Solomon's seal seedling. At the same time, since the angle and position between the insertion rod 3 and the cylinder 9 can be adjusted, when the seedling grows tilted, the state of the insertion rod 3 can be finely adjusted to restore the seedling to an upright position, further improving the fixing effect on the seedling.
[0041] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present invention and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this invention.
