Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of melon planting, and in particular to a planting support device for preventing melon stems and vines from being entangled. Background Art

[0002] Muskmelon is an annual climbing herb of the genus Muskmelon in the family Cucurbitaceae. It has heart-shaped leaves, unisexual yellow flowers, monoecious or bisexual flowers, and is spherical, ovoid, or oblate in shape. The skin is yellow, white, green, or has various patterns. It likes high temperature, dryness, and plenty of sunshine, and is one of the excellent summer fruits.

[0003] When using the traditional method to grow melons, since the melon stems and vines are spread on the ground, when encountering continuous rainy weather, the ground humidity is high, which may cause the stems and fruits to rot, affecting the melon yield. Therefore, melon planting racks came into being.

[0004] The existing melon planting frame has a relatively simple structure. It is a vertically arranged column, and then an inclined climbing rod is tied with iron wire on one side of the column. Two stable triangles are formed by a pair of inclined climbing rods, the column and the ground, so as to serve as a climbing frame for melon growth. Although this climbing frame can provide a climbing area for the melon vines, and prevent the melon stems and vines from being spread on the ground due to the high humidity of the ground, which leads to the rot of the stems and fruits, there are still certain disadvantages. As the melon seedlings grow, the tendrils of the melon stems and vines become longer and longer. Because the climbing rods are tilted and fixed on the columns, the closer to the top of the climbing frame, the smaller the distance between adjacent climbing frames. As the melon vines grow and climb on the climbing frame, the closer to the top of the climbing frame, the more likely it is to cause the phenomenon of adjacent melon stems and vines entangled. The entangled melon stems and vines will crowd the melon seedlings together, so that the inner melon seedling stems and vines cannot be fully exposed to sunlight, resulting in a short light exposure time and insufficient light intensity for the melons, thereby affecting the taste and yield of the melons. Summary of the invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the problems in the prior art and provide a planting support device that prevents melon stems and vines from tilting, thereby preventing adjacent melon vines from being entangled during growth and affecting the growth of subsequent melons.

The drawings in the present invention are not drawn strictly according to the actual scale. The specific size and quantity of each structure can be determined according to actual needs. The drawings described in the present invention are only schematic diagrams of the structure.

[0026] The present invention provides a planting support device for preventing melon stems and vines from being entangled, such as Figure 1 As shown, it includes a vertically arranged column 1 and a horizontally arranged movable plate 2, the movable plate 2 is vertically slidably sleeved on the column 1, the bottom end of the column 1 is rotatably connected to a support plate 3, a pair of through grooves 5 are symmetrically opened on the support plate 3, and an adjusting block 6 is horizontally slidably embedded in the pair of through grooves 5, a climbing rod group 4 is provided on the support plate 3, the climbing rod group 4 includes a first climbing rod 41, one end of the first climbing rod 41 is hinged to the support plate 3, a second climbing rod 42 is slidably inserted in the first climbing rod 41, and one end of the second climbing rod 42 is hinged to the bottom of the movable plate 2, the climbing rod group 4 is arranged as a pair, and the pair of climbing rod groups 4 are arranged in a mirror image with the axis of the column 1, and the distance between the pair of climbing rod groups 4 and the column 1 is controlled by the up and down movement of the movable plate 2 and the horizontal movement of the adjusting block 6, thereby controlling the distance between the melon vines wrapped around the pair of climbing rod groups 4.

[0027] The planting support device for preventing the entanglement of melon stems and vines of the present invention is hingedly arranged with a climbing frame group and a column 1, and reasonable adjustments are made according to the growth of the melon vines, so as to effectively prevent the adjacent melon vines from being entangled and affecting the growth and fruiting of subsequent melons;

[0028] In addition, the climbing pole group 4 is set as a telescopic mechanism of the first climbing pole 41 and the second climbing pole 42. According to the adjustment situation, only the telescopic length of the second climbing pole 42 needs to be adjusted, and the climbing pole group 4 is set as a pair, and the pair of climbing pole groups 4 is mirrored with the axis of the column 1, so that the climbing environment for the growth of adjacent melon vines is consistent.

[0029] A pair of through slots 5 are provided on the moving plate 2, and an adjusting block 6 is provided in the through slots 5. When the moving plate 2 moves upward, the adjusting block 6 will be driven to move together through the driving part, and the pair of adjusting blocks 6 will drive the pair of climbing rod groups 4 to move away from each other. Because the first climbing rod 41 in the climbing rod group 4 is hinged to the supporting plate 3, and the second climbing rod 42 is hinged to the adjusting block 6, the climbing rod group 4 will undergo a corresponding angle change as the moving plate 2 moves upward.

[0030] In the initial state of the present invention, the angle between the climbing rod group 4 and the ground is the smallest. At this time, the slope presented by the climbing rod group 4 is small. Because the climbing ability of the melon vine is weak when it just starts to grow, a small slope is more conducive to the climbing of the initially growing melon vines. In addition, when the movable plate 2 moves upward, the angle between a pair of climbing rod groups 4 and the ground will be synchronously controlled to expand, providing sufficient space for the subsequent growth of a pair of adjacent melon vines, further preventing the subsequent growing melon vines from entangled with each other, and the provided space is convenient for the subsequent picking of mature melons. The present invention is easy to use, reasonably designed, and has strong popularization.

[0031] Preferably, Figure 1 As shown, a pair of through slots 5 are provided on the movable plate 2 , and adjustment blocks 6 are slidably embedded in the pair of through slots 5 . The pair of adjustment blocks 6 move away from each other, and the second climbing rod 42 is hinged to the bottom of the adjustment block 6 .

[0032] Preferably, Figure 1 to Figure 4 As shown, the surface of the column 1 is provided with an external thread 7, a connecting sleeve 8 is fixedly connected to the connection between the movable plate 2 and the column 1, an internal thread 9 matching the external thread 7 is provided in the connecting sleeve 8, and a rotating handle 10 is fixedly connected to the top of the column 1.

[0033] In the present invention, an external thread 7 is provided on the surface of the column 1, and the movable plate 2 is connected to the column 1 through a connecting sleeve 8. In addition, since the bottom end of the column 1 is rotatably connected to the fixed plate 11, and the fixed plate 11 is connected and limited to the support plate 3 through a fixing rod 15, when it is necessary to move the movable plate 2 upward, it is only necessary to rotate the column 1. At this time, under the action of the connecting sleeve 8, the movable plate 2 will be driven to move upward, and the climbing rod group 4 will be adjusted accordingly in real time.

[0034] Preferably, Figure 1 to Figure 4As shown, a fixed plate 11 is fixedly connected to the top of the column 1, the column 1 passes through the fixed plate 11 and is rotatably connected thereto, a gear 12 is sleeved on the column 1, and a horizontally arranged rack 13 is meshed on the opposite side of the gear 12, the rack 13 is slidably arranged at the bottom of the fixed plate 11, a pair of racks 13 ends are fixedly connected to sliding blocks 24, the sliding blocks 24 are slidably arranged at the bottom of the fixed plate 11, the sliding blocks 24 are fixedly connected to the adjusting block 6 through a connecting rod 14, a fixing rod 15 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixed plate 11, and the fixing rod 15 is fixedly connected to the support plate 3.

[0035] When the movable plate 2 is lifted by rotating the column 1, the sleeved gear 12 is driven to rotate together. Because the gear 12 is meshed with the rack 13 and the rack 13 is slidably arranged at the bottom of the fixed plate 11, the rack 13 drives the sliding block 24 to move together, and the sliding block 24 is connected to the adjusting rod through the connecting rod 14. When the pair of sliding blocks 24 move away from each other, the adjusting block 6 is driven to move together, so that when the movable plate 2 moves up, the angle between the climbing rod group 4 and the supporting plate 3 is synchronously adjusted by adjusting the position of the adjusting block 6, which is convenient and quick to use.

[0036] Preferably, Figure 1 to Figure 4 As shown, the column 1 and the climbing pole group 4 are both made of stainless steel, a protective shell 16 is fixedly connected to the hinge between the first climbing pole 41 and the support plate 3, an anchor rod 17 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support plate 3, and barbs 18 are provided around the anchor rod 17. The second climbing pole 42 is composed of a plurality of branch pipes slidably arranged.

[0037] In the present invention, the column 1 and the climbing assembly are both made of stainless steel to increase the overall stability of the device, and a protective shell 16 is provided at the hinge between the first climbing rod 41 and the support plate 3 to protect the hinge point between the second climbing rod 42 and the support plate 3 to prevent the melon vines from being entangled on the hinge point and affecting the adjustment of the climbing assembly. The support plate 3 is stably limited above the ground by the anchor rod 17 and the barb 18 provided at the bottom of the support plate 3. When the melon vine climbs to the initial sliding position of the first climbing rod 41 and the second climbing rod 42, the end of the melon vine is entangled on the second climbing rod 42. If the second climbing rod 42 is continuously lowered and pulled, the end of the entangled melon vine may be broken, which is not conducive to the growth of the melon vine. In the present invention, the second climbing rod 42 is composed of a plurality of branch pipes slidably arranged. When adjusting according to the growth of the melon vine, the plurality of branch pipes are synchronously related to the lifting of the movable plate 2 and will not cause the above-mentioned problem.

[0038] Preferably, Figure 5-6As shown, a collecting trough 19 is provided on the top of the fixed plate 11, the column 1 and the support plate 3 are both hollow, a water inlet is provided at the connection between the column 1 and the fixed plate 11, a water outlet 20 is provided at the bottom end of the column 1, and a plurality of diversion ports 21 are provided on the support plate 3. The collecting trough 19 is inclined, and the bottom end is located at the connection between the fixed plate 11 and the column 1. A gate 22 is provided in the collecting trough 19, and a gate 23 is provided in the gate 22.

[0039] In the present invention, a collecting trough 19 is arranged on the top of the fixed plate 11 to collect the falling rainwater, and a gate 22 and a gate 23 are arranged to control the collected rainwater. When the gate 23 is lifted, the rainwater will enter the cavity of the column 1 through the water inlet and enter the cavity of the support plate 3 through the water outlet 20. The rainwater is directly transported to the root of the melon vine through the diversion port 21 arranged on the support plate 3, so that the rainwater is utilized. The invention is easy to use and has strong promotion potential.

[0040] The method of using the planting support device for preventing the entanglement of melon stems and vines of the present invention is as follows:

[0041] The support plate 3 is installed on the ground through the anchor rod 17 and the barb 18. In the initial state, the angle between the climbing rod group 4 and the ground is the smallest. At this time, the slope presented by the climbing rod group 4 is small. Because the climbing ability of the melon vine is weak when it just starts to grow, a small slope is more conducive to the climbing of the initially growing melon vines.

[0042] As the melon vine grows, it is only necessary to rotate the column 1. At this time, under the action of the connecting sleeve 8, the movable plate 2 will be driven to move upward, and the gear 12 sleeved on the column 1 will rotate together. Because the gear 12 is engaged with the rack 13 and the rack 13 is slidably set at the bottom of the fixed plate 11, the rack 13 will drive the sliding block 24 to move together, and the sliding block 24 is connected to the adjusting rod through the connecting rod 14. When a pair of sliding blocks 24 move away from each other, the adjusting block 6 will be driven to move together, so that when the movable plate 2 moves upward, the angle between the climbing rod group 4 and the support plate 3 is synchronously adjusted by adjusting the position of the adjusting block 6. When adjusting, the second climbing rod 42 will extend from the first climbing rod 41 and extend synchronously according to the upward movement of the movable plate 2.

[0043] A collecting trough 19 is arranged on the top of the fixed plate 11 to collect the falling rainwater, and a gate 22 and a gate 23 are arranged to control the collected rainwater. When the gate 23 is lifted, the rainwater will enter the cavity of the column 1 through the water inlet and enter the cavity of the support plate 3 through the water outlet 20. The rainwater is directly transported to the roots of the melon vines through the diversion port 21 arranged on the support plate 3, so that the rainwater is utilized.

[0044] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
