Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of garden landscape pruning, and more specifically, to a garden landscape pruning device and method. Background Art

[0002] In modern garden landscape design, in order to create a unique and beautiful visual effect, pruning landscape trees is a crucial task. The beauty of garden landscapes not only affects the urban image and the quality of residents' living environments, but also to a certain extent reflects the cultural connotation and aesthetic level of the city. Pruning landscape trees can, on the one hand, shape various creative and artistic shapes, enhancing the ornamental value of garden landscapes, and on the other hand, contribute to the healthy growth of trees. Reasonable pruning can improve the ventilation and light transmission conditions of trees and reduce the occurrence of pests and diseases.

[0003] However, at present, in the field of garden landscape tree pruning, the technical means have obvious limitations. Most of the existing technologies rely on workers holding pruning machines by hand or operating pruning machines. When pruning landscape trees into ordinary shapes, this traditional method can barely meet the requirements. However, when it is necessary to prune trees into special shapes, such as a pagoda shape that gradually tapers from bottom to top, problems will emerge.

[0004] Pruning into special shapes requires extremely high technical skills from workers, and heavily relies on workers' experience and craftsmanship. The technical levels of different workers vary greatly. Even experienced workers are difficult to ensure the consistency and accuracy of each pruning when facing complex special shape pruning tasks. Due to the lack of effective auxiliary tools and precise pruning guidance methods, the pruning process depends entirely on workers' subjective judgments, resulting in the pruning effect being difficult to meet expectations, and it also requires a large amount of labor and time costs. In view of this, we propose a garden landscape pruning device and method. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a garden landscape pruning device and method, aiming to solve the problem that when pruning landscape trees into special shapes, it requires extremely high technical skills from workers, heavily relies on workers' experience and craftsmanship, and the pruning effect is difficult to meet expectations.

[0006] To solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: A garden landscape pruning device, including a bracket, on both sides of the outer wall of the bracket are respectively fixedly connected with main clamping rings of semi-circular structures, one end of each main clamping ring is hinged with a slave clamping ring, on the outer wall of the main clamping ring is hinged a first electric telescopic rod, the other end of the first electric telescopic rod is hinged with the outer wall of the slave clamping ring, on the outer wall of the bracket is fixedly connected a first motor, on the top of the bracket is fixedly connected a fixing ring, on the top of the fixing ring are rotatably connected a pair of transmission discs, the main shaft of the first motor and the transmission discs are synchronously rotationally connected through a belt, on the top of the fixing ring is fixedly connected a semi-circular structure limiting ring, on the outer wall of the limiting ring is rotatably connected a rotating ring, the outer wall of the transmission disc abuts against the outer wall of the rotating ring, and on the outer wall of the rotating ring is provided an inclined pruning machine body.

[0007] Preferably, on the outer wall of the rotating ring is fixedly connected an inclined base, at the end of the base is fixedly connected a second motor, the main shaft of the second motor is fixedly connected with a threaded rod, on the top of the base is slidably connected a sliding plate, the threaded rod passes through the sliding plate and is threadedly connected therewith, and the pruning machine body is fixedly connected to the top of the sliding plate.

[0008] Preferably, on the outer walls of the main clamping ring and the slave clamping ring are respectively fixedly connected with a plurality of fixing plates, on the outer walls of the fixing plates are fixedly connected with second electric telescopic rods, on the outer walls of the fixing plates are respectively provided with chutes, inside the chutes are slidably connected with sliders, the top of the second electric telescopic rod is fixedly connected with the bottom of the slider, on the outer walls of the fixing plates are respectively hinged with two pairs of connecting rods, the other ends of the connecting rods are hinged with clamping blocks, on the outer walls of the clamping blocks are hinged with push rods, and the other ends of the push rods are hinged with the outer walls of the sliders.

[0009] Preferably, the push rod is divided into two sections from the middle, and a spring telescopic rod is arranged in the middle of the push rod after being divided into two.

[0010] Preferably, on the outer wall of the bracket is fixedly connected a handle, and the handle is located below the first motor.

[0011] A garden landscape pruning method, which uses any one of the above-mentioned garden landscape pruning devices for pruning, and the method includes the following steps:

[0012] S1: The staff holds the handle on the outer wall of the bracket below the first motor and transports the device to the landscape tree to be pruned.

[0013] S2: Activate the first electric telescopic rod hinged to the outer wall of the main clamping ring to make it contract. Since one end of the first electric telescopic rod is hinged to the main clamping ring and the other end is hinged to the slave clamping ring, when the first electric telescopic rod contracts, it drives the slave clamping ring to rotate around its hinge point with the main clamping ring, thus opening the slave clamping ring.

[0014] S3: Surround the opened slave clamping ring and the main clamping ring around the appropriate position of the tree, and activate the first electric telescopic rod again to make it extend, driving the slave clamping ring to rotate and close.

[0015] S4: Activate the first motor fixedly connected to the outer wall of the bracket. The main shaft of the first motor rotates and drives the transmission disc rotatably connected to the top of the fixed ring to rotate synchronously through a belt. Since the outer wall of the transmission disc abuts against the outer wall of the rotating ring, when the transmission disc rotates, it drives the rotating ring to rotate on the outer wall of the limiting ring. The rotation of the rotating ring can adjust the circumferential position of the inclined trimming machine body provided on its outer wall to align it with the branches to be trimmed.

[0016] S5: Continuously activate the first motor to make the rotating ring drive the trimming machine body to rotate circumferentially around the tree, and activate the trimming machine body to perform circular trimming on the tree, thereby trimming the tree into a pagoda shape that gradually becomes thinner from bottom to top.

[0017] Preferably, it further includes activating the second electric telescopic rod on the fixed plate to make it extend. The top of the second electric telescopic rod pushes the slider to slide upward in the chute opened on the outer wall of the fixed plate. When the slider slides upward, it drives the clamping block to move through the hinged push rod, so that the clamping block gradually approaches and clamps the tree, thereby fixing its whole body to the main trunk of the tree and increasing the stability during trimming.

[0018] Preferably, it further includes controlling the rotation of the threaded rod, and the slide plate makes a linear slide on the top of the base. The sliding of the slide plate drives the trimming machine body fixed on its top to move, thereby adjusting the position of the trimming machine body to better adapt to the trimming requirements of branches at different positions and angles.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0020] 1. By setting up the bracket, main clamping ring, slave clamping ring, first electric telescopic rod, first motor, fixed ring, transmission disc, limiting ring, rotating ring, trimming machine body, and base, the garden landscape trimming device can drive the transmission disc through the first motor, and then make the rotating ring rotate, realizing the automatic circumferential rotation trimming of the trimming machine body around the tree. Moreover, through the rotation of the rotating ring and the movement of the trimming machine body driven by the second motor on the base to drive the slide plate, the position and angle of the trimming machine body can be precisely adjusted, and the tree can be trimmed into a pagoda shape that gradually becomes thinner from bottom to top strictly according to the preset shape requirements, ensuring the accuracy of the tree trimming shape and making the garden landscape more beautiful and artistic.

[0021] 2. In the present invention, the main clamping ring and the secondary clamping ring are opened and closed by the first electric telescopic rod, which can be adjusted according to the thickness of the tree, enabling it to adapt to trees of different diameters. At the same time, the clamping block realizes the clamping of the tree through structures such as the second electric telescopic rod, slider, connecting rod, and push rod. Moreover, a spring telescopic rod is arranged in the middle of the push rod, which can better fit the uneven surface of the tree. This design enables the device to be applied to landscape trees with various shapes and surface features, enhancing the applicability and versatility of the device.

[0022] 3. After the garden landscape trimming device of the present invention is installed on the tree, the operator can adjust the position of the trimming machine body and perform trimming operations by controlling the motor and the electric telescopic rod, without directly performing dangerous manual trimming at high altitudes. This reduces the time and opportunity for the operator to be exposed to dangerous environments, effectively ensuring the personal safety of the operator.

[0023] 4. The automated and precise trimming function of the present invention reduces the dependence on the experience and skills of workers. Ordinary workers can operate the equipment to complete trimming work with complex shapes after simple training. In large-scale garden trimming projects, this method can significantly reduce the required number of workers, thereby reducing labor costs, saving expenses for garden landscape maintenance enterprises, and improving economic efficiency.

[0031] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

[0032] Embodiment 1

[0033] As Figures 1-4 shown, a garden landscape pruning device includes a bracket 1. On both sides of the outer wall of the bracket 1, semi-circular main clamping rings 2 are respectively fixedly connected. One end of each main clamping ring 2 is hinged with a slave clamping ring 3. A first electric telescopic rod 4 is hinged on the outer wall of the main clamping ring 2, and the other end of the first electric telescopic rod 4 is hinged with the outer wall of the slave clamping ring 3. A first motor 5 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the bracket 1. A fixed ring 6 is fixedly connected to the top of the bracket 1. A pair of transmission discs 7 are rotatably connected to the top of the fixed ring 6. The main shaft of the first motor 5 and the transmission discs 7 are synchronously rotationally connected by a belt. A semi-circular limiting ring 8 is fixedly connected to the top of the fixed ring 6. A rotating ring 9 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the limiting ring 8. The outer wall of the transmission disc 7 abuts against the outer wall of the rotating ring 9. An inclined pruning machine body 10 is arranged on the outer wall of the rotating ring 9.

[0034] Specifically, move the device to the landscape tree to be pruned, and start the first electric telescopic rod 4 hinged on the outer wall of the main clamping ring 2 to make it contract. Since one end of the first electric telescopic rod 4 is hinged with the main clamping ring 2 and the other end is hinged with the slave clamping ring 3, when the first electric telescopic rod 4 contracts, it drives the slave clamping ring 3 to rotate around its hinge point with the main clamping ring 2, so that the main clamping ring 2 and the slave clamping ring 3 are opened. Surround the opened main clamping ring 2 and slave clamping ring 3 at a suitable position on the tree. Start the first electric telescopic rod 4 again to make it extend, drive the slave clamping ring 3 to rotate and close, and tightly surround the main clamping ring 2 and the slave clamping ring 3 on the tree. Then start the first motor 5 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the bracket 1. The main shaft of the first motor 5 rotates and drives the transmission discs 7 rotatably connected to the top of the fixed ring 6 to rotate synchronously through the belt. Since the outer wall of the transmission disc 7 abuts against the outer wall of the rotating ring 9, when the transmission disc 7 rotates, it drives the rotating ring 9 to rotate on the outer wall of the limiting ring 8. The rotation of the rotating ring 9 can adjust the circumferential position of the inclined pruning machine body 10 arranged on its outer wall to align it with the branches to be pruned. When the pruning machine body 10 is adjusted to a suitable position and angle, start the pruning machine body 10 to make it start working. The cutter of the pruning machine body 10 rotates at a high speed to prune the branches in contact.

[0035] Furthermore, an inclined base 11 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating ring 9. A second motor 12 is fixedly connected to the end of the base 11. A threaded rod 13 is fixedly connected to the main shaft of the second motor 12. A slide plate 14 is slidably connected to the top of the base 11. The threaded rod 13 passes through the slide plate 14 and is threadedly connected to it. The pruning machine body 10 is fixedly connected to the top of the slide plate 14.

[0036] Specifically, an inclined base 11 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating ring 9, and the position of the trimming machine body 10 can be further adjusted through the structure on the base 11. Start the second motor 12 fixedly connected to the end of the base 11. The main shaft of the second motor 12 drives the threaded rod 13 to rotate. Since the threaded rod 13 passes through and is threadedly connected to the sliding plate 14 slidably connected to the top of the base 11, when the threaded rod 13 rotates, the sliding plate 14 makes a linear slide on the top of the base 11. The sliding of the sliding plate 14 drives the trimming machine body 10 fixed on its top to move, thereby adjusting the position and angle of the trimming machine body 10 to better meet the trimming requirements of branches at different positions and angles.

[0037] Furthermore, a plurality of fixing plates 15 are respectively fixedly connected to the outer walls of the main clamping ring 2 and the slave clamping ring 3. Second electric telescopic rods 16 are fixedly connected to the outer walls of the fixing plates 15. Sliding grooves 17 are formed in the outer walls of the fixing plates 15. Sliders 18 are slidably connected to the inner walls of the sliding grooves 17. The tops of the second electric telescopic rods 16 are fixedly connected to the bottoms of the sliders 18. Two pairs of connecting rods 19 are hinged to the outer walls of the fixing plates 15 respectively. The other ends of the connecting rods 19 are hinged to clamping blocks 20. Push rods 21 are hinged to the outer walls of the clamping blocks 20. The other ends of the push rods 21 are hinged to the outer walls of the sliders 18.

[0038] Specifically, start the second electric telescopic rods 16 on the fixing plates 15 on the outer walls of the main clamping ring 2 and the slave clamping ring 3 to make them extend. The tops of the second electric telescopic rods 16 push the sliders 18 to slide upward in the sliding grooves 17 formed in the outer walls of the fixing plates 15. When the sliders 18 slide upward, the clamping blocks 20 are driven to move through the hinged push rods 21. Since the push rods 21 are hinged to both the clamping blocks 20 and the sliders 18, and two pairs of connecting rods 19 are hinged to the outer walls of the fixing plates 15 and connected to the clamping blocks 20, during the upward movement of the sliders 18, the clamping blocks 20 gradually approach and clamp the tree, thereby fixing the whole to the main trunk of the tree and increasing the stability during trimming.

[0039] Furthermore, the push rod 21 is divided into two sections from the middle, and a spring telescopic rod 22 is arranged in the middle of the push rod 21 after being divided into two sections.

[0040] Specifically, considering that the surface of the tree may be uneven, the push rod 21 is divided into two sections from the middle, and a spring telescopic rod 22 is arranged in the middle of the push rod 21 after being divided into two sections. The spring telescopic rod 22 can be telescopically adjusted according to the actual situation of the tree surface to ensure that the clamping block 20 can better fit the tree surface and achieve stable clamping.

[0041] Furthermore, a handle 23 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the bracket 1, and the handle 23 is located below the first motor 5.

[0042] Specifically, through the provided handle 23, it is convenient for the staff to move the device body by holding the handle 23.

[0043] As Figure 5 shown, a method for pruning garden landscapes, which uses any one of the above-mentioned garden landscape pruning devices for pruning. The method includes the following steps:

[0044] S1: The staff transports the device to the landscape tree to be pruned by holding the handle 23 on the outer wall of the bracket 1 below the first motor 5;

[0045] S2: Start the first electric telescopic rod 4 hinged to the outer wall of the main clamping ring 2 to make it contract. Since one end of the first electric telescopic rod 4 is hinged to the main clamping ring 2 and the other end is hinged to the slave clamping ring 3, when the first electric telescopic rod 4 contracts, it drives the slave clamping ring 3 to rotate around its hinge point with the main clamping ring 2, thereby opening the slave clamping ring 3;

[0046] S3: Surround the opened slave clamping ring 3 and the main clamping ring 2 at a suitable position on the tree, and start the first electric telescopic rod 4 again to make it extend, driving the slave clamping ring 3 to rotate and close;

[0047] S4: Start the first motor 5 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the bracket 1. The main shaft of the first motor 5 rotates and drives the transmission disc 7 rotatably connected to the top of the fixed ring 6 to rotate synchronously through the belt. Since the outer wall of the transmission disc 7 is in contact with the outer wall of the rotating ring 9, when the transmission disc 7 rotates, it drives the rotating ring 9 to rotate on the outer wall of the limiting ring 8. The rotation of the rotating ring 9 can adjust the circumferential position of the inclined pruning machine body 10 provided on its outer wall to align it with the branches to be pruned;

[0048] S5: Continuously start the first motor 5 to make the rotating ring 9 drive the pruning machine body 10 to rotate around the tree circumferentially, and start the pruning machine body 10 to perform circular pruning on the tree, thereby pruning the tree into a pagoda shape that gradually becomes thinner from bottom to top.

[0049] It also includes starting the second electric telescopic rod 16 on the fixed plate 15 to make it extend. The top of the second electric telescopic rod 16 pushes the slider 18 to slide upward in the chute 17 opened on the outer wall of the fixed plate 15. When the slider 18 slides upward, it drives the clamping block 20 to move through the hinged push rod 21, so that the clamping block 20 gradually approaches and clamps the tree, thereby fixing its whole body to the main trunk of the tree and increasing the stability during pruning.

[0050] It also includes controlling the rotation of the threaded rod 13, and the slide plate 14 makes a linear slide on the top of the base 11. The sliding of the slide plate 14 drives the pruning machine body 10 fixed on its top to move, thereby adjusting the position of the pruning machine body 10 to better meet the pruning requirements of branches at different positions and angles.

[0051] The embodiments disclosed in the present invention are preferred embodiments, but not limited thereto. Those of ordinary skill in the art can easily understand the spirit of the present invention based on the above embodiments and make different extensions and changes. As long as they do not depart from the spirit of the present invention, they are within the protection scope of the present invention.
