TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of tree felling, and particularly relates to a tree directional felling device. BACKGROUND
[0002] At present, when trees are felled in the wild, a special oil saw is usually used by manual operation to cut down and saw off the trees. In the sawing-off process, the hand-held part of the oil saw needs to be held by manpower to control the stable operation of the oil saw and keep the sawing surface of the tree trunk as flat as possible, which is a large amount of labor. In addition, in order to prevent the tree from injuring the felling personnel when it falls down, an auxiliary tool is usually arranged to make the tree fall in a specified direction. For example, a patent with application number CN202010322951.6 discloses a directional tree felling device, which comprises a vehicle body, third mounting plates are arranged on the lower surfaces of the left and right sides of the vehicle body, a rotating rod is rotatably connected to the lower part of the third mounting plate, wheels are arranged on the front and rear ends of the rotating rod, a fixed plate is arranged on the upper surface of the right side of the vehicle body, a second cylinder is arranged on the middle part of the upper surface of the vehicle body, the piston rod of the second cylinder is fixedly connected to the left middle part of a push plate, the right side of the push plate is connected to first sliding rods at the front and rear ends, the right end of the first sliding rod is connected to a first mounting plate, a first rotating shaft is arranged in the middle part of the first mounting plate, a cutting wheel is arranged on the lower part of the first rotating shaft, a connecting rod is arranged on the middle part of the push plate, and the upper end of the connecting rod is connected to the left end of a second sliding rod. The tree is fixed by arranging a clamping plate, so that the tree is in a fixed state during the whole tree felling process, and the top plate arranged on the upper part keeps being tightly pressed, so that the falling direction of the tree can only be to the right side, thereby ensuring the safety of the whole tree felling process. However, the technical scheme can only cut the roots of the tree when in use, and if the tree is high, the radius during falling will be large, which is easy to hit or be stuck in other tree trunks around, thereby causing damage to some protected trees (such as famous trees and old trees) or trees that do not need to be felled.
[0003] In view of the above-mentioned defects in the prior art, the present application is produced through in-depth research. SUMMARY
[0004] The purpose of the present application is to provide a tree directional felling device, which cuts the tree trunk in sections from top to bottom, prevents the sawed-off tree trunk from hitting or being stuck in other tree trunks around, and avoids causing damage to other trees.

The reset spring can quickly reset the support plate.
[0010] Further, the upper support includes a first support and a second support fixedly connected to the connecting frame, the first support is perpendicular to the second support in the horizontal direction, the first support is located on the side close to the connecting frame, and the directional tilting mechanism is installed on the second support; the upper support further includes a third support and a fourth support; one end of the third support is rotationally connected to the end of the second support, one end of the fourth support is rotationally connected to the third support, and the other end is clamped to the first support; the first support and the fourth support are connected through a latch. The third support and the fourth support are movably connected, which facilitates clamping the upper climbing wheel and the lower climbing wheel to the tree trunk when the tree climber is installed.

[0012] Further, the top of the fourth support is provided with a protective plate. The protective plate can prevent the chainsaw from accidentally injuring the felling personnel.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the directional felling device for trees of the present application has the directional tilting mechanism and the chainsaw installed on the tree climber. When felling, the felling personnel can sit on the tree climber, climb above the tree trunk, and make the two arc-shaped plates close to surround the tree trunk. At this time, the tree trunk is cut off by the chainsaw, and under the action of tilting, the cut-off tree trunk can only fall in the direction of the tilting plate. After the tilting exceeds 90°, the tree trunk can start to slide down until it falls off from the arc-shaped plate. At this time, since the cut-off tree trunk is short, the radius of the tilting fall is also small, so it is not easy to hit other trees, thereby avoiding damage to other trees.
