[0038] Examples, such as Figure 1-9 As shown, to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: a shovel with a soil ball for transplanting garden flowers, comprising a shovel head 1, a shovel handle 2 and a connecting piece 3, the shovel head 1 and the shovel handle 2 are respectively arranged at the bottom and the top of the connecting piece 3, the shovel head 1 is mainly used to embed into the soil to dig out seedlings and part of the soil at the roots of the seedlings, the shovel handle 2 is mainly used to hold and apply pressure with one hand, and the connecting piece 3 is mainly used to connect the shovel head 1 and the shovel handle 2 together, the shovel head 1 comprises two symmetrically arranged shovel blades, each of which has a plurality of grooves 11 on the inner surface, the cross-section of the groove 11 is a "T"-shaped structure, and the groove 11 is vertically arranged on the surface of the shovel blade, the vertical height of the groove 11 is less than the vertical height of the shovel blade in the same vertical plane, because the bottom end of the groove 11 does not extend to the bottom of the shovel blade, when the shovel blade is embedded in the bottom of the soil to dig out seedlings, the inside of the groove 11 is not easy to enter the soil, so that the groove 11 can still maintain a certain gap between the soil and the soil.

[0039] Furthermore, the shovel handle 2 includes a pressure rod 21, a handle 22 and a positioning rod 23. The handle 22 is vertically fixedly connected to the top of the pressure rod 21. The center position of the positioning rod 23 is movably sleeved on the pressure rod 21 and is located below the handle 22. The handle 22 and the positioning rod 23 are arranged in parallel. Two hanging holes 231 are provided on the side surface of the positioning rod 23. The two hanging holes 231 are respectively located at symmetrical positions on both sides of the pressure rod 21, and a hook rod 314 is hung in each of the two hanging holes 231. The positioning rod 23 can move up and down on the pressure rod 21, thereby driving the hook rod 314 to move or deflect.

[0040] Furthermore, the connecting member 3 includes two symmetrically arranged arc-shaped base plates 31, and a clamp 32 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of each arc-shaped base plate 31. A clamp 32 is provided at the bottom end of the clamp 32 for clamping the shovel blade. A plurality of groups of drainage holes 322 are provided at the bottom end of the side wall of the clamp 32 on one side of the clamp 321. The number of each group of drainage holes 322 is two and they are located directly above the groove 11, wherein the groove 11 is a "T"-shaped structure, a part of the space of the groove 11 is exposed to the outside of the shovel blade, and a part of the space is hidden inside the shovel blade. Each group of drainage holes 322 is located directly above the groove 11 and vertically corresponds to the space of the groove 11 hidden inside the shovel blade. Therefore, when the shovel blade is embedded in the soil, a certain gap can always be maintained between the part of the space hidden in the shovel blade and the soil.

[0041] Furthermore, the outer surfaces of the two curved substrates 31 are fixedly connected with an ear plate 4, the top of the ear plate 4 is provided with a water tank 41, the side of the water tank 41 is provided with a water pipe 42, the bottom end of the water pipe 42 is connected to the clamp 32, the inside of the clamp 32 is provided with a sandwich layer communicating with the drainage hole 322, and the connection between the clamp 32 and the water pipe 42 is provided with a guide hole 323, the guide hole 323 is respectively communicated with the sandwich layer and the water pipe 42 for water circulation, and the water inside the water tank 41 can flow to the drainage hole 322 through the water pipe 42, the guide hole 323 and the sandwich layer inside the clamp 32. 22, and discharged into the groove 11 from the drainage hole 322, so when digging seedlings, the soil surface attached to the inner wall of the shovel can be infiltrated with water to a certain extent. After the soil surface is wetted with water, the water quickly penetrates into the soil particles. These soil particles originally remain loose through tiny gaps, but when they absorb water, the particles begin to swell, causing the gaps to decrease or even disappear, making the originally loose soil become compact, thereby facilitating the removal of the seedlings with soil, and making the soil at the roots of the seedlings form a soil ball that is not easy to loosen, further improving the survival rate of the seedlings after transplanting.

[0042] Among them, two symmetrical fixing rods 311 are fixedly provided on the inner side wall of the arc-shaped base plate 31, a gap is provided between the two fixing rods 311 and a sleeve rod 312 is movably sleeved on the outer surface of both, and the same limiting rod 313 runs through the hollow top of the two sleeve rods 312. The fixing rod 311, sleeve rod 312 and hook rod 314 are all detachable structures, and the assembly is simple. The bottom end hook of the hook rod 314 is fixedly hooked at the center position of the limiting rod 313. When lifting the seedlings, the hand holds the handle 22 and the positioning rod 23 at the same time. At this time, the distance between the handle 22 and the positioning rod 23 is the shortest, and the positioning rod 23 pulls the limiting rod through the hook rod 314 313 and sleeve rod 312, at this time, the positions of the two symmetrical arc-shaped base plates 31 and the two symmetrical shovel heads 1 are kept fixed, and the two symmetrical shovel heads 1 are kept in a vertical state, the two end parts of the two arc-shaped base plates 31 overlap and fit inside and outside, and a limit bolt 34 is movably connected between the two arc-shaped base plates 31, the two arc-shaped base plates 31 are symmetrically distributed about the limit bolt 34 and are movably connected, the limit bolt 34 is fixed and passes through the bottom end of the pressure rod 21, and the limit bolt 34 and the pressure rod 21 are perpendicular to each other, and a plurality of bolts 33 are passed through the clamp 32 and the shovel head 1, so that the connecting member 3 is firmly connected to the shovel head 1, and the installation and disassembly of the two are convenient.

[0043] When the above embodiment is working, when using the shovel to dig flower seedlings, first, the hand holds the handle 22 and the positioning rod 23 at the same time. At this time, the distance between the handle 22 and the positioning rod 23 is the shortest, and the positioning rod 23 pulls the limit rod 313 and the sleeve rod 312 through the hook rod 314. At this time, the positions of the two symmetrical arc-shaped base plates 31 and the two symmetrical shovel heads 1 are kept fixed, and the two symmetrical shovel heads 1 are kept in a vertical state. The shovel head 1 is pressed against the outside of the seedling to press the shovel handle 2 until the shovel blade is embedded in the soil. At this time, the shovel can be rotated and shaken at a certain angle so that the roots of the seedlings and the soil can be dug out at the same time. The operation process is simple and convenient. During this process, the water inside the water tank 41 Water can flow to the drainage hole 322 through the water pipe 42, the guide hole 323 and the internal interlayer of the clamp 32, and be discharged from the drainage hole 322 into the groove 11. Therefore, when digging seedlings, the soil surface attached to the inner wall of the shovel blade can be infiltrated with water to a certain extent. After the soil surface is wetted with water, the water quickly penetrates into the soil particles. These soil particles originally remain loose through tiny gaps, but when they absorb water, the particles begin to expand, causing the gaps to decrease or even disappear, making the originally loose soil become compact, thereby facilitating the removal of the seedlings with soil, and forming a soil ball that is not easy to loosen at the roots of the seedlings, further improving the survival rate of the seedlings after transplanting.

[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.
