A straightening device for fruit tree planting

Abstract

This invention discloses a straightening device for fruit tree planting, relating to the field of fruit tree planting technology. It includes a positioning plate, with a support plate fixedly installed at one end of the positioning plate, and a positioning rod rotatably installed at the end of the support plate, thereby fixing the positioning plate. In this straightening device, when the power block rotates, it synchronously drives a protective block fixedly installed at its end to rotate. Since the power block is rotatably mounted on a drive block, the protective block rotates along the end of the power block while following the drive block's rotation. As the protective block moves, it stretches a rope engaged with the inner wall of a hole, thereby locking the sapling in place and slowly moving it to one side until it reaches a predetermined position. The position of the protective block is then slowly adjusted over time to accommodate the normal growth of the tree.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to fruit tree planting technology, specifically to a straightening device for fruit tree planting. Background Technology

[0002] Fruit trees refer to trees with edible fruits, and are a general term for perennial plants that provide edible fruits and seeds, as well as their rootstocks. Fruit tree seedlings often grow crookedly when planted, which leads to a decrease in the survival rate of the seedlings. Generally, when seedlings grow crookedly, straightening devices are used to support them and straighten them so that they can continue to grow.

[0003] Chinese invention patent CN116508532A discloses a straightening device for fruit tree planting. This device, according to the present invention, uses a motor to drive a ball screw, which in turn moves a second clamping plate. The second clamping plate, in conjunction with a connecting frame, straightens the fruit tree. A connecting plate and a rotating block support the first clamping plate, improving the stability of the straightening device. An electric telescopic rod, when activated, moves the screw box and the second clamping plate, allowing adjustment of the second clamping plate's position according to the bending position of the fruit tree.

[0004] Existing equipment typically uses clamps to hold the bent parts of seedlings, which can only straighten seedlings at a fixed height and angle. Furthermore, when facing uneven ground, the clamps and other straightening devices are prone to shifting, affecting the straightening effect. In addition, the straightening process requires applying force slowly; if too much force is applied at once, the seedling may break. Therefore, a straightening device for fruit tree planting has been developed. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a straightening device for fruit tree planting to overcome the above-mentioned shortcomings of the prior art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a straightening device for fruit tree planting, comprising a positioning plate, a support plate fixedly installed at the end of the positioning plate, and a positioning rod rotatably installed at the end of the support plate, thereby fixing the positioning plate by means of the positioning rod;

[0007] An adjustment component, which is mounted on the end of the positioning plate, is used to adapt to different terrains;

[0008] A protective component is fitted to the end of the adjusting component, which works with the adjusting component to correct the position of the protective component and straighten the seedling through the protective component.

[0009] The protective component includes a snap-fit ​​plate, a limit plate is fixedly installed at one end of the snap-fit ​​plate, a disc is rotatably installed at one end of the limit plate, a driving component is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the limit plate, a driving shaft is fixedly installed at the output end of the driving component, and the end of the driving shaft is rotatably connected to the end of the disc.

[0010] The end of the drive shaft passes through and extends to the outside of the disk. A drive block is fixedly installed at the end of the drive shaft. Power blocks are rotatably installed on both sides of the drive block. A guide ball is fixedly installed at the end of the power block.

[0011] The end of the power block extends through and to the other side of the drive block. Meanwhile, a protective block is fixedly installed at the end of the power block away from the guide ball. Multiple sets of holes are evenly opened at the end of the protective block. Ropes are attached to the inner walls of the holes to restrain the sapling.

[0012] As a further optimization of the present invention, two guide blocks are arranged around the end of the disk, and the end of the guide blocks is provided with a guide groove, the inner wall of the guide groove being slidably connected to the inner wall of the guide ball.

[0013] As a further optimization of the present invention, a ratchet gear is fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the drive shaft, and the end of the ratchet gear is slidably connected to the end of the disk.

[0014] As a further optimization of the present invention, a limiting block is slidably installed on the inner wall of the limiting plate, and the outer surface of the end of the limiting block is engaged with the outer surface of the ratchet.

[0015] As a further optimization of the present invention, the adjustment component includes a connecting block rotatably connected to the end of the positioning plate, a connecting rod rotatably mounted on the end of the connecting block, and a telescopic rod rotatably mounted on the end of the connecting rod away from the connecting block.

[0016] As a further optimization of the present invention, an arc-shaped plate is fixedly installed at the end of the telescopic rod, and an arc-shaped groove is formed at the end of the arc-shaped plate.

[0017] As a further optimization of the present invention, a sliding plate is slidably installed on the inner wall of the arc-shaped groove, and a telescopic component is fixedly installed at the middle position of the end of the sliding plate.

[0018] As a further optimization of the present invention, a cover plate is fixedly installed at the output end of the telescopic component, and through holes are symmetrically opened at the ends of the cover plate.

[0019] As a further optimization of the present invention, a sphere is rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the through hole, and a docking block is fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the sphere, while the end of the docking block extends to the outside of the through hole.

[0020] As a further optimization of the present invention, the outer surface of the end of the docking block is engaged with the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​plate.

[0021] Compared with existing technologies, the fruit tree straightening device provided by this invention has the following beneficial effects: When the power block rotates, it synchronously drives the protective block fixedly installed at its end to rotate. Since the power block is rotatably mounted on the drive block, the protective block rotates along the end of the power block while following the drive block's synchronous rotation. When the protective block moves, it drives the rope engaged with the inner wall of the hole to stretch, thereby locking the sapling with the rope and slowly moving it to one side until it is adjusted to the specified position and then stops. At the same time, the position of the protective block is slowly adjusted in the subsequent time to adapt to the normal growth of the tree.

[0022] As the sphere rotates, it synchronously moves the connecting block fixedly installed on its outer surface. Because the outer surface of the connecting block's end engages with the inner wall of the slot at the lower end of the snap-fit ​​plate, the protective component can be angled to fit the sapling's surface. Once adjusted to the appropriate position, the telescopic component drives the cover plate to move and lock the sphere, ensuring that force is applied slowly at the optimal angle when straightening the sapling.

[0034] 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 of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0035] In the description of this invention, it should be noted that the terms "center," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are used only for the convenience of describing the invention and for simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the invention. The terms "first," "second," and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance. Furthermore, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installed," "connected," and "linked" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal communication of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0036] Example: Please refer to Figures 1-8 A straightening device for fruit tree planting includes a positioning plate 1, a support plate 11 fixedly installed at the end of the positioning plate 1, and a positioning rod 12 rotatably installed at the end of the support plate 11, thereby fixing the positioning plate 1.

[0037] In this design, the positioning plate 1 is arc-shaped, and after four positioning plates 1 are spliced ​​together, they form a ring. Each positioning plate 1 has a buckle on one side for docking with another positioning plate 1, thereby ensuring the overall stability of the positioning plates 1 after splicing.

[0038] The positioning rod 12 is a threaded component such as a screw, which penetrates the positioning plate 1 and is threaded to its inner surface. The bottom end of the positioning rod 12 is tapered, which allows the positioning rod 12 to quickly penetrate the ground when it comes into contact with the ground, thereby stabilizing the positioning plate 1. At the same time, it works with the support plate 11 to support the positioning rod 12, further improving the stability of the positioning rod 12.

[0039] Furthermore, the protective component 3 is assembled at the end of the adjusting component 2, and works with the adjusting component 2 to correct the position of the protective component 3, while also straightening the seedling through the protective component 3; wherein, the protective component 3 includes a snap-fit ​​plate 31, a limiting plate 32 is fixedly installed at the end of the snap-fit ​​plate 31, a disc 321 is rotatably installed at the end of the limiting plate 32, and a driving component 33 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the limiting plate 32, and a driving shaft 34 is fixedly installed at the output end of the driving component 33, and the end of the driving shaft 34 is rotatably connected to the end of the disc 321.

[0040] In this embodiment, the end of the snap-fit ​​plate 31 is provided with a slot corresponding to the docking block 27, and the inner wall of the slot is provided with a clamp or other fixing component, so that when the docking block 27 is docked with the slot, the protective component 3 is accurately and stably positioned on the docking block 27.

[0041] The limiting plate 32 has an annular cross-section and an annular groove at its end. The inner wall of the annular groove engages with the outer surface of the end of the disc 321. An adjustable screw is provided on the inner wall of the annular groove to lock the disc 321, facilitating subsequent minor adjustments to the disc 321.

[0042] The drive unit 33 is a device with power output such as a motor and is connected to an external control device. When the drive unit 33 is started, it synchronously drives the drive shaft 34 fixedly installed at its end to rotate. Since the disc 321 is engaged with the inner wall of the annular groove, the disc 321 remains stable when the drive shaft 34 rotates.

[0043] Furthermore, the end of the drive shaft 34 extends through and to the outside of the disk 321, and a drive block 36 is fixedly installed at the end of the drive shaft 34. Power blocks 361 are rotatably installed on both sides of the drive block 36, and a guide ball 362 is fixedly installed at the end of the power block 361.

[0044] Specifically, when the drive shaft 34 rotates, it synchronously drives the drive block 36 fixedly installed at its end to rotate. Since the outer surface of the drive block 36 is rotatably mounted with a power block 361, and the end of the power block 361 is fixedly mounted with a guide ball 362, the guide ball 362 is driven to rotate synchronously around the drive shaft 34 when the power block 361 is subjected to force and rotates.

[0045] Furthermore, the end of the power block 361 extends through and to the other side of the drive block 36. Simultaneously, a protective block 38 is fixedly installed at the end of the power block 361 away from the guide ball 362. Multiple sets of holes 381 are evenly distributed at the end of the protective block 38, and ropes 39 are fastened to the inner walls of the holes 381 to restrain the sapling. A torsion spring is fitted onto the outer surface of the power block 361, with one end connected to the outer surface of the power block 361 and the other end connected to the end of the drive block 36. The torsion spring restrains the power block 361, thereby ensuring its stability.

[0046] The power block 361 is arc-shaped with a height difference between its two ends, and is spiral-shaped from the lowest point to the highest point.

[0047] Specifically, when the power block 361 rotates, it synchronously drives the protective block 38, which is fixedly installed at its end, to rotate. Since the power block 361 is rotatably installed on the drive block 36, the protective block 38 rotates along the end of the power block 361 while rotating synchronously with the drive block 36.

[0048] As the protective block 38 moves, it causes the rope 39, which is engaged with the inner wall of the hole 381, to stretch, thereby locking the sapling in place and slowly moving it to one side until it is adjusted to the designated position and then stops. The rope 39 is made of a flexible material and is wrapped around the outer surface of the sapling.

[0049] Meanwhile, the locking position of the end of the rope 39 can be adjusted according to the actual situation. When the seedling is small, the four ropes 39 can be intersected by a cross distribution method, so that the seedling output is locked between the four ropes 39.

[0050] Furthermore, two guide blocks 37 are arranged around the end of the disk 321, and the end of the guide block 37 is provided with a guide groove 371, the inner wall of the guide groove 371 being slidably connected to the inner wall of the guide ball 362.

[0051] Specifically, when the guide ball 362 moves with the drive block 36, the outer surface of the guide ball 362 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the guide groove 371. Due to the height difference of the guide groove 371, when the drive block 36 rotates, it works with the power block 361 to drive the protective block 38 to rotate.

[0052] The guide ball 362 is fitted into the guide groove 371, so that when the guide ball 362 moves in the guide groove 371, it fits tightly against the inner wall of the guide groove 371.

[0053] Furthermore, a ratchet 35 is fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the drive shaft 34, and the end of the ratchet 35 is slidably connected to the end of the disc 321. A limit block 351 is slidably mounted on the inner wall of the limit plate 32, and the outer surface of the end of the limit block 351 is engaged with the outer surface of the ratchet 35.

[0054] Specifically, the end of the limiting block 351 is provided with a telescopic component such as an electric telescopic rod, which is connected to an external control device. A spring is sleeved on the outer surface of the limiting block 351, with one end of the spring connected to the limiting block 351 and the other end connected to the end of the electric telescopic rod. Thus, the limiting block 351 can be moved by the electric telescopic rod.

[0055] Meanwhile, since the end of the limiting block 351 is engaged with the outer surface of the ratchet 35, when the ratchet 35 rotates in the forward direction, the ratchet 35 presses against the limiting block 351, and the spring moves the limiting block 351 away, allowing the ratchet 35 to rotate normally. At the same time, when the ratchet 35 wants to rotate in the reverse direction, it is limited by the limiting block 351, and the limiting block 351 can only be moved away by the electric telescopic rod, ensuring that the seedling will not move easily after it is straightened.

[0056] Furthermore, the adjustment component 2, which is assembled at the end of the positioning plate 1, adapts to different terrains; the adjustment component 2 includes a connecting block 21 rotatably connected to the end of the positioning plate 1, a connecting rod 22 rotatably mounted at the end of the connecting block 21, and a telescopic rod 23 rotatably mounted at the end of the connecting rod 22 away from the connecting block 21.

[0057] In this embodiment, after the positioning plate 1 is fixedly set around the seedling, the connecting rod 22 installed on the connecting block 21 is adjusted and rotated to make the connecting rod 22 in the optimal state.

[0058] The telescopic pole 23 is an electric telescopic pole or other component with telescopic function, and is connected to an external control device. When the telescopic pole 23 is started, the arc plate 24 set on the telescopic pole 23 is adjusted and moved until the arc plate 24 and another arc plate 24 are in a horizontal position and then stop.

[0059] Furthermore, an arc-shaped plate 24 is fixedly installed at the end of the telescopic rod 23, and an arc-shaped groove 241 is provided at the end of the arc-shaped plate 24.

[0060] Specifically, protrusions and grooves are provided between the two curved plates 24, so that the two curved plates 24 can be joined together to form a complete ring. After the two curved plates 24 are spliced ​​together, their height can be adjusted with the telescopic rod 23 to make them suitable for different scenarios.

[0061] Furthermore, a sliding plate 25 is slidably installed on the inner wall of the arc-shaped groove 241, and a telescopic member 28 is fixedly installed at the middle position of the end of the sliding plate 25. A cover plate 29 is fixedly installed at the output end of the telescopic member 28, and through holes 291 are symmetrically opened at the end of the cover plate 29.

[0062] Specifically, after the arc-shaped plate 24 is spliced ​​together, the arc-shaped groove 241 forms an annular groove, which allows the sliding plate 25 to move arbitrarily on the arc-shaped groove 241 until it reaches the optimal position.

[0063] The telescopic component 28 is a component with telescopic function such as an electric telescopic rod, and is connected to an external control device. When the telescopic component 28 is activated, it drives the cover plate 29 fixedly installed at its output end to move until the through hole 291 on the cover plate 29 is tightly fitted with the ball 26.

[0064] Furthermore, a ball 26 is rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the through hole 291, and a mating block 27 is fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the ball 26. At the same time, the end of the mating block 27 extends to the outside of the through hole 291. The outer surface of the end of the mating block 27 engages with the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​plate 31.

[0065] Specifically, the outer surface of the sphere 26 is provided with anti-slip components such as rubber. When the sphere 26 rotates, it synchronously drives the docking block 27 fixedly installed on its outer surface to move. Since the outer surface of the end of the docking block 27 is engaged with the inner wall of the slot at the lower end of the snap-fit ​​plate 31, the protective component 3 can be driven to adjust its angle so that it fits the surface of the seedling.

[0066] Once adjusted to the appropriate position, the cover plate 29 is moved by the telescopic component 28 to lock the ball 26, ensuring that force is applied slowly at the optimal angle when straightening the sapling.

[0067] The control device can choose a microcontroller as the control terminal. In this embodiment, the microcontroller is a typical embedded microcontroller unit, consisting of an arithmetic logic unit (ALU), a controller, memory, input / output devices, etc., essentially a miniature computer. Compared to general-purpose microprocessors used in personal computers, it emphasizes self-sufficiency (no external hardware required) and cost savings. Its biggest advantage is its small size, allowing it to be placed inside the instrument, but it has limited storage capacity, simple input / output interfaces, and low power consumption.

[0068] The foregoing has only described certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention by way of illustration. Undoubtedly, those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the foregoing drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
