Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of garden engineering, and in particular to a tree pruning device. Background Art
[0002] Greening trees play a big role in urban greening. During the growth process of trees, new branches and leaves will continue to grow. Whether it is for the needs of municipal construction or for the needs of tree growth, trees need to be pruned frequently. When people prune trees, they usually need to hold professional scissors to trim excess branches to ensure the beauty of the trees.

Long-term work can easily lead to arm soreness and reduce work efficiency.

The pruned branches pass through the two clamping plates, and by starting the two hydraulic cylinders, the two clamping plates will be driven closer to each other when the hydraulic cylinders move, thereby clamping and fixing the branches to avoid bending of the branches when pruning them. By starting the forward and reverse motors, the forward and reverse motors start to drive the screw to rotate, and the rotation of the screw drives the sliding seat outside it to move outside the screw, and the bottom of the sliding seat fits tightly with the bottom of the transverse groove, thereby avoiding rotational deviation of the sliding seat when the outside of the screw moves, until the sliding seat drives the cutter to move to the appropriate position. The operation of the cutter will drive the cutting disk to rotate at high speed, and the electric push cylinder will be started. The movement of the electric push cylinder will drive the cutter and move toward the branches, thereby achieving cutting and pruning of the branches.

[0009] Preferably, both side walls of the lifting plate on the longer side are slidably connected to limit rods, and the bottoms of the limit rods are fixedly connected to the base. When the lifting plate is lifted outside the threaded rod, the lifting plate will also slide outside the two limit rods. The limit rods can limit the lifting and lowering of the lifting plate, thereby preventing the lifting plate from rotating and deviating when it moves outside the threaded rod.
[0010] Preferably, universal wheels are installed at two corners of the bottom of the base, and fixed wheels are installed at two corners of the bottom of the base away from the universal wheels. The universal wheels and the fixed wheels can facilitate the movement of the entire device.
[0011] Preferably, multiple rows of arc-shaped protrusions are provided on the sides of the two clamping plates close to each other, and the arc-shaped protrusions can increase the friction between the two clamping plates and the branches, thereby increasing the stability of the clamping plates when clamping the branches.
[0012] In summary, this application includes the following beneficial technical effects:
[0013] The lifting plate is raised to a suitable height by the lifting assembly so that the branch to be pruned passes between the two clamping plates. By starting the two hydraulic cylinders, the two clamping plates are driven to move closer to each other when the hydraulic cylinders move, thereby clamping and fixing the branch to avoid bending of the branch when the branch is pruned. By starting the forward and reverse motors, the forward and reverse motors are started to drive the lead screw to rotate, and the rotation of the lead screw drives the sliding seat outside the lead screw to move outside the lead screw until the sliding seat drives the cutting machine to move to a suitable position.

The clamping assembly includes two hydraulic cylinders 3 symmetrically fixedly connected to the surface of the lifting plate 2 and close to one of the shorter edges. The output ends of the two hydraulic cylinders 3 are fixedly connected to the clamping plate 4; the cutting assembly includes a transverse groove 5 opened on the surface of the lifting plate 2, and the inner wall of one end of the transverse groove 5 is fixedly connected to a forward and reverse motor 6. The output end of the forward and reverse motor 6 is fixedly connected to a screw rod 7 through a coupling. The external thread of the screw rod 7 is connected to a sliding seat 8. The surface of the sliding seat 8 is fixedly connected to an electric push cylinder 9. The output end of the electric push cylinder 9 is fixedly connected to a cutting machine 10. The lifting plate 2 is raised to a suitable height through the lifting assembly so that the branches to be pruned pass through the two clamping plates 4 By starting the two hydraulic cylinders 3, the movement of the hydraulic cylinders 3 will drive the two clamping plates 4 to approach each other, thereby clamping and fixing the branches to avoid bending of the branches when pruning them. By starting the forward and reverse motors 6, the forward and reverse motors 6 start to drive the screw rod 7 to rotate, and the rotation of the screw rod 7 drives the sliding seat 8 outside it to move outside the screw rod 7. The bottom of the sliding seat 8 fits tightly with the bottom of the transverse groove 5, thereby avoiding the sliding seat 8 from rotating and deviating when the outside of the screw rod 7 moves, until the sliding seat 8 drives the cutting machine 10 to move to the appropriate position. The operation of the cutting machine 10 will drive the cutting disk to rotate at high speed, and the electric push cylinder 9 will be started. The movement of the electric push cylinder 9 will drive the cutting machine 10 and move toward the branches, thereby realizing the cutting and pruning of the branches.
[0023] Reference Figure 1 Universal wheels 16 are installed at two corners of the bottom of the base 1, and fixed wheels 17 are installed at two corners of the bottom of the base 1 away from the universal wheels 16. The universal wheels 16 and the fixed wheels 17 can facilitate the movement of the entire device.
[0024] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 5 A plurality of rows of arc-shaped protrusions 18 are arranged on the sides of the two clamping plates 4 close to each other. The arc-shaped protrusions 18 can increase the friction between the two clamping plates 4 and the branches, thereby increasing the stability of the clamping plates 4 when clamping the branches.
[0025] Embodiment 2
[0026] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3The lifting component includes a servo motor 11 fixedly connected to the outside of the base 1, and the output end of the servo motor 11 is fixedly connected to a worm 12 through a coupling.

The bottom of the threaded rod 14 is rotatably connected to the base 1, and the outside of the threaded rod 14 is threadedly connected to the lifting plate 2. By starting the servo motor 11, the servo motor 11 drives the worm 12 to rotate, and the rotation of the worm 12 drives the worm wheel 13 outside it to rotate, and the rotation of the worm wheel 13 drives the threaded rod 14 inside it to rotate. When the threaded rod 14 rotates, it will drive the lifting plate 2 outside it to rise and fall outside the threaded rod 14, so that the position of the lifting plate 2 can be adjusted according to the height of the branches to be pruned.
[0027] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 The two side walls of the lifting plate 2 on the longer side are slidably connected to the limit rod 15, and the bottom of the limit rod 15 is fixedly connected to the base 1. When the lifting plate 2 is lifted or lowered outside the threaded rod 14, the lifting plate 2 will also slide outside the two limit rods 15. The limit rod 15 can limit the lifting and lowering of the lifting plate 2, thereby preventing the lifting plate 2 from rotating and deviating when it moves outside the threaded rod 14.

When the hydraulic cylinders 3 move, the two clamping plates 4 are driven to move closer to each other, thereby achieving the clamping and fixing of the branches. The arc-shaped protrusions 18 can increase the friction between the two clamping plates 4 and the branches, thereby increasing the stability of the clamping plates 4 when clamping the branches, and avoiding the bending of the branches when pruning the branches. By starting the forward and reverse motors 6, the forward and reverse motors 6 start to drive the screw rod 7 to rotate. The rotation of the screw rod 7 drives the sliding seat 8 outside it to move outside the screw rod 7. The bottom of the sliding seat 8 is tightly fitted with the bottom of the transverse groove 5, thereby avoiding the sliding seat 8 from rotating and deviating when the outside of the screw rod 7 moves, until the sliding seat 8 drives the cutting machine 10 to move to a suitable position. The cutting machine 10 will drive the cutting disc to rotate at high speed when it works. The electric push cylinder 9 is started.
