[0001] The utility model relates to the field of forest litter collection, in particular to a device for collecting artificial forest litter. Background Art
[0002] Forest litter, also known as litter, refers to dead and decomposed plant branches and leaves scattered on the ground surface. Litter is the main way of nutrient return in forest ecosystems. Litter collectors are important tools for collecting plant litter and studying the cycle of plant matter.
[0003] Currently, most of the existing litter collectors are square frame structures with nets placed on the ground. This device has the following main defects: first, it is necessary to find a relatively flat area with moderate soil hardness for placement, which takes a lot of time for preliminary preparation; second, for artificial tree forests planted together (such as poplar plantations), the collection of forest litter is greatly affected by wind force. The litter collector placed on the ground is too far away from the tree crown, and the litter collected by the litter collector is difficult to reflect the actual situation of the forest; third, since the device is placed on the ground, it is easy to collect impurities from other forests.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a new device for collecting litter in artificial forests to provide an effective solution to the defects of the existing technology. Summary of the invention

The left half ring 2 and the right half ring 4 are rotatably connected by an outer hinge 3. The left half ring 2 and the right half ring 4 are detachably connected at one end away from the hinge 3. One or more hinge seats 13 are provided on the circumferential outer surfaces of the left half ring 2 and the right half ring 4. A hinge head 14 at the bottom of the telescopic rod 15 is hinged to the hinge head 13. The end of the telescopic rod 15 away from the hinge head 14 is connected to the litter collecting net frame 20. A rope ring 16 is provided at the base of the telescopic rod 15. A limiting rope 17 is commonly passed through the rope rings 16 on all the telescopic rods 15.
[0026] Working principle of this embodiment:
[0027] Install the trunk fixing ring: First, rotate the left half ring 2 and the right half ring 4 through the outer hinge 3 to form a complete ring structure. Then, detachably connect the left half ring 2 and the right half ring 4 away from the hinge 3, such as using bolts, buckles, etc., to ensure that the ring is tightly fixed on the trunk.
[0028] Install the telescopic rod: On the outer circumferential surface of the left half ring 2 and the right half ring 4, there is a hinge seat 13. The hinge head 14 at the bottom of the telescopic rod 15 is hinged to the hinge seat 13, so that the telescopic rod 15 can rotate and extend at a certain angle around the trunk.
[0029] Connecting the litter collection net frame: The end of the telescopic rod 15 away from the hinge 14 is connected to the litter collection net frame 20. The litter collection net frame 20 is used to capture the litter dropped by the trees. According to conventional scientific research needs, the litter collection net frame 20 is set to a size of 1M*1M.
[0030] Use of limiting rope: A rope ring 16 is provided at the base of the telescopic rod 15, and a limiting rope 17 is passed through the rope rings 16 on all telescopic rods 15. By adjusting the circumference of the limiting rope 17, the opening angle of the telescopic rod 15 can be adjusted, so that the litter collection net frame 20 at the end of the telescopic rod 15 can be used to collect litter from the tree it is installed on, and can also be used to collect litter from neighboring trees. According to the existing spacing between plantations, the maximum extension length of three of the telescopic rods 15 can be set to 1.5 meters for collecting litter from the tree itself; the maximum extension length of one of the telescopic rods 15 can be set to 3 meters for collecting litter from neighboring trees.
[0031] This embodiment is fixed on the tree trunk by the trunk fixing ring sleeve 1. There is no need to find a flat area with moderately soft and hard soil.
