Understanding the annual growth of trees is of great significance for scientific and reasonable forest management, maintenance of ecological balance and sustainable use of wood resources. The measurement of annual growth of trees is crucial for forest resource management and ecosystem monitoring. Understanding the growth of trees can help decision makers take appropriate measures to ensure the health and sustainable use of forests.

[0003] After searching, the existing patent (publication number: CN219810347U) discloses a forestry tree distance measuring ruler, including: a tape measure body; the tape measure body includes a cavity and a tape measure located inside the cavity; a binding component, the binding component is arranged at the free end of the tape measure, and is used to fix the free end of the tape measure to the measuring tree. When the utility model is in use, when it is necessary to measure the tree distance, the binding straps 1 and 2 on both sides are pulled out to the outside of the chamber, and the tree trunk is surrounded by the binding straps 1 and 2. At this time, the disc spring 1 and the disc spring 2 are stretched, and then the hook on the second connecting head is matched with the slot on the first connecting head, so that the binding straps 1 and 2 can be limited to fix the tree trunk, thereby facilitating the measurement of the tree distance. When the measurement is completed, the hook and the slot are unlocked. At this time, the binding straps 1 and 2 will shrink to the inside of the chamber under the action of the disc springs 1 and 2, so as to facilitate use.

[0004] However, in actual use of the above solution, due to the complex structure, the use environment of the device is relatively complex, and there are more impurities. Compared with more sophisticated devices, the internal structure may be stuck due to impurities, affecting the normal use of the device.

[0005] In view of this, the utility model proposes a device for measuring the annual growth of trees. Utility Model Content

At the same time, a device with a simple structure usually means lower manufacturing and maintenance costs. A simpler design usually requires less materials and components, which reduces the cost of manufacturing and maintenance, making the device more cost-effective;

[0017] 2. In the utility model, the measuring rope and the counterweight block are used to measure the measuring height by the length of the measuring rope, thereby avoiding the difference in the measuring data caused by the different measuring heights each time, resulting in a large error between the final measuring data and the actual data. By fixing the measuring height, it can ensure that the trees of the same height are measured at different times and places, thereby improving the consistency and comparability of the measuring results. This is crucial for long-term growth trend analysis and comparison. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
