The top port of the three-way valve 303 is connected through The pipeline is connected to the interior of the long pole 2. By arranging the circulating air pump 302 as a driving component on the cart 301, it is not necessary to lift the circulating air pump 302 during pruning, which reduces the physical exertion of the user. The high-pressure gas in the circulating air pump 302 is introduced into the long pole 2 through the three-way valve 303, so that the gas pushes the piston 306 to rise, thereby driving the extension rod 304 to rise, so that the pruning component 305 rises, and the height of the pruning component 305 is adjusted to prune branches of different heights. The spring 308 is arranged so that after the circulating air pump 302 extracts the gas in the long pole 2, the spring 308 can push the piston 306 to move downward, thereby moving the pruning component 305 downward;

[0024] The pruning component 305 includes a shell 3057, which is fixedly mounted on the top of the extension rod 304. A pneumatic telescopic rod 3051 is fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the shell 3057.
