Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of urban greening equipment, in particular to an arbor tree support for roads. Background Art

[0002] During the construction of urban roads, parks, communities, etc., greening operations are often required, especially the planting of arbors. Since the root systems of newly planted arbors are not yet fully developed and their wind resistance is poor, they are extremely likely to fall or tilt due to reasons such as strong winds. Currently, the commonly used method is to set up tree supports, that is, to set up anti-tilting structures on the main trunks of arbors to enhance their wind resistance and anti-tilting ability to ensure the healthy growth of arbors. However, the commonly used anti-tilting structure utilizes the principle of triangle stability, using steel plates and insertion rods. The steel plates are inclined between the arbor and the ground. One end of the steel plate is tightly pressed against the arbor, and the other end is fixed to the ground through the insertion rod. At this time, the steel plate, the ground, and the arbor form a triangular structure to support the arbor, thereby reducing the phenomenon of the arbor falling after being blown by strong winds. However, this anti-tilting structure occupies a large area and takes up a lot of sidewalk space, affecting pedestrian passage and posing certain safety hazards. Content of the Utility Model

[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to provide an arbor tree support for roads that reduces the space occupied by the tree support, avoids excessive occupation of the sidewalk by the tree support, and increases the effective passage space for pedestrians.

[0004] The utility model is realized by the following technical solutions: an arbor tree support for roads, including a bottom plate, a through hole for the arbor to pass through is arranged inside the bottom plate, a cylinder nested outside the arbor is fixedly arranged above the through hole, and a plurality of fixing layers for fixing the internal arbor are arranged on the inner wall of the cylinder. Each fixing layer is composed of a plurality of strong springs arranged in a circular array with the arbor as the center. One end of each strong spring is fixed to the inner wall of the cylinder, and the other end abuts against the arbor.

[0005] The working principle of this technical solution is that the fixing layer composed of strong springs is used to hold the main trunk of the arbor tightly. Since the strong springs have elasticity, while providing support for the arbor, they can adapt to the growth of the arbor for a certain period, avoiding frequent replacement of the tree support as the arbor grows. When the arbor grows thick enough and the strong springs cannot be compressed, the tree support structure can be removed. The thick enough arbor has sufficiently stable roots and does not require an additional support structure. The cylinder is used to provide support force for the strong springs in the fixing layer, thereby realizing the support for the internal arbor. In addition, since the cylinder is nested outside the main trunk of the arbor, it provides a certain protection for the main trunk of the arbor, avoiding damage to the arbor branches by pedestrians or vehicles on the road. Its bottom bottom plate is used to fix and support the cylinder on the upper part. By fixing the bottom bottom plate, sufficient support force is provided for the upper cylinder, avoiding excessive occupation of the sidewalk by the tree support and increasing the effective passage space for pedestrians.

[0006] To better implement the present utility model, further, a flexible cushion layer is provided at one end of each of the strong springs in contact with the arbor. One end of the strong spring is welded to the inner wall of the cylinder, and the other end is in contact with the arbor through the flexible cushion layer.

[0007] To better implement the present utility model, further, the cylinder is formed by splicing a plurality of arc-shaped tile-shaped steel cylinders, and the lower part of each tile-shaped steel cylinder is circumferentially fixed to the through hole on the bottom plate.

[0008] To better implement the present utility model, further, at least one reinforcing rib is provided between the outer side of each tile-shaped steel cylinder and the bottom plate.

[0009] To better implement the present utility model, further, the bottom plate is formed by splicing a plurality of steel plates. The number of steel plates is the same as that of the tile-shaped steel cylinders. The lower part of each tile-shaped steel cylinder is fixed to the corresponding steel plate, and at least one reinforcing rib is provided between the outer sides of each tile-shaped steel cylinder and the corresponding steel plate.

[0010] To better implement the present utility model, further, each steel plate that can be spliced into the bottom plate is fixed to the ground by at least one elongated anti-pulling screw.

[0011] To better implement the present utility model, further, the cylinder is formed by splicing four arc-shaped tile-shaped steel cylinders, and the bottom plate is also formed by splicing four steel plates. Each fixing layer is composed of four strong springs distributed in a circular array with the arbor as the center. One end of the strong spring is fixedly connected to the middle part of the corresponding tile-shaped steel cylinder.

[0012] To better implement the present utility model, further, each steel plate that can be spliced into the bottom plate is fixed to the ground by three elongated anti-pulling screws that are not on the same straight line.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present utility model has the following advantages and beneficial effects:

[0014] (1) Through the bottom plate and the upper cylinder nested on the main trunk of the arbor, the present utility model greatly reduces the occupied space of the tree support, avoids excessive occupation of the sidewalk by the tree support, increases the effective passage space for pedestrians, and at the same time uses the cylinder to provide a certain protection for the main trunk of the arbor, avoiding damage to the arbor branches by pedestrians or vehicles on the road.

[0015] (2) The fixing layer composed of strong springs in the present utility model is used to hold the main trunk of the arbor tightly. By utilizing the elasticity of the elastic springs, while providing support to the arbor, it can adapt to the growth of the arbor for a certain period, avoiding the frequent replacement of the tree support as the arbor grows. At the same time, a flexible gasket is arranged at one end where the strong spring abuts against the main trunk of the arbor to avoid damaging the arbor during the process of the strong spring supporting the main trunk of the arbor.

[0016] (3) The structure of the present utility model is reasonably arranged and has perfect functions. It can not only greatly reduce the occupied space of the tree support on the sidewalk, eliminate unnecessary potential safety hazards, but also can better support the arbor while not disturbing the growth of the arbor. Moreover, both the cylinder and the bottom plate are splicing parts, and its installation and use process is simpler and more convenient. It has a good market prospect and is suitable for wide promotion and application. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0025] Embodiment 1:

[0026] The main structure of this embodiment is as Figures 1 - 3 shown, including a bottom plate 1. A through hole for a tree 6 to pass through is provided inside the bottom plate 1. Above the through hole, a cylinder 2 nested around the tree 6 is fixedly provided. A plurality of fixing layers 3 for fixing the internal tree are provided on the inner wall of the cylinder 2. Each fixing layer 3 is composed of a plurality of strong springs 31 distributed in a circular array with the tree 6 as the center. One end of each strong spring 31 is fixed to the inner wall of the cylinder 2, and the other end abuts against the tree 6.

[0027] The specific use process is as follows: First, fix the bottom plate 1 at the tree planting location, so that the main trunk of the tree 6 extends out from the through hole in the bottom plate 1. Then, nest the cylinder 2 on the main trunk outside the tree 6. Install a plurality of layers of fixing layers 3 inside the cylinder 2, so that one end of the strong spring 31 in the fixing layer 3 is fixed to the inner wall of the cylinder 2, and the other end abuts against the tree 6. Then, fix the cylinder 2 to the bottom plate 1, and the installation of the entire tree support is completed, realizing the fixation of the tree. Among them, the fixing method between the cylinder 2 and the bottom plate 1 can be welding or other fixing methods. The fixing method of one end of the strong spring 31 to the inner wall of the cylinder 2 can be welding or other fixing methods. The method of making the main trunk of the tree 6 extend out from the through hole of the bottom plate 1 can be to first set an opening in the bottom plate 1 and then weld and seal it. The strong spring 31 in the fixing layer 3 can be first installed inside the cylinder 2 according to the thickness of the tree 6. The cylinder 2 can also be nested on the tree 6 by first setting an opening and then welding and sealing it. The above installation methods are all easy for those skilled in the art to achieve.

[0028] Embodiment 2:

[0029] Based on the above embodiment, the structure of the fixed layer 3 is further defined in this embodiment. As shown in Figure 3, a flexible cushion layer 32 is further provided at one end of each of the strong springs 31 in contact with the arbor 6. One end of the strong spring 31 is welded to the inner wall of the cylinder 2, and the other end is in contact with the arbor 6 through the flexible cushion layer 32. The flexible cushion layer 32 is provided to avoid damaging the arbor 6 during the process of the strong spring 31 supporting the main trunk of the arbor 6. Especially during the growth of the arbor, when the strong spring 31 is compressed, if the flexible cushion layer 32 is not provided, the strong spring 31 will damage the epidermis of the arbor 6. Other parts of this embodiment are the same as those of the above embodiment and will not be described in detail.

[0030] Embodiment 3:

[0031] Based on the above embodiment, the structure of the cylinder 2 is further defined in this embodiment. As Figure 2 , Figure 3 shown, the cylinder 2 is formed by splicing a plurality of arc-shaped tile-shaped steel protection cylinders 21, and the lower part of each tile-shaped steel protection cylinder 21 is circumferentially fixed to the through hole on the bottom plate 1. The cylinder 2 is formed by splicing arc-shaped tile-shaped steel protection cylinders 21. Whether it is to install the fixed layer 3 or to nest the cylinder 2 around the arbor 6, the difficulty is greatly reduced, eliminating the need for later welding and fixing, and only each arc-shaped tile-shaped steel protection cylinder 21 needs to be fixed to the lower bottom plate 1. Other parts of this embodiment are the same as those of the above embodiment and will not be described in detail.

[0032] Embodiment 4:

[0033] Based on the above embodiment, a reinforcing rib 4 is further added in this embodiment. As Figure 1 , Figure 2 shown, at least one reinforcing rib 4 is further provided between the outer side of each tile-shaped steel protection cylinder 21 and the bottom plate 1. The reinforcing rib 4 is provided to increase the connection strength between the bottom plate 1 and the tile-shaped steel protection cylinder 21, so that the spliced cylinder 2 can provide better support for the arbor 2. Other parts of this embodiment are the same as those of the above embodiment and will not be described in detail.

[0034] Embodiment 5:

[0035] Based on the above embodiment, the structure of the bottom plate 1 is further defined in this embodiment. As Figure 1 , Figure 2As shown, the bottom plate 1 is formed by splicing several steel plates. The number of steel plates is the same as that of the tile-shaped steel casing 21. The lower part of each tile-shaped steel casing 21 is fixed to the matching steel plate, and at least one reinforcing rib 4 is provided between the outer side of each tile-shaped steel casing 21 and the matching steel plate. The bottom plate 1 is formed by splicing several steel plates, so that the lower bottom plate 1 and the upper tile-shaped steel casing 21 become a splicing unit, which facilitates the installation process of the bottom plate 1 and the cylinder 2 outside the tree 6. Each splicing unit is provided with an independent reinforcing rib 4 to ensure the stability of the support. Other parts of this embodiment are the same as those of the above embodiment and will not be described in detail.

[0036] Embodiment 6:

[0037] On the basis of the above embodiment, this embodiment further adds extended anti-pull screws 5, as Figure 1 , Figure 2 shown. Each steel plate that can be spliced into the bottom plate 1 is fixed to the ground by at least one extended anti-pull screw 5. The extended anti-pull screws 5 are used to stably fix the bottom plate 1 to the ground, making the overall tree support structure more stable and providing the overall anti-overturning force. Other parts of this embodiment are the same as those of the above embodiment and will not be described in detail.

[0038] Embodiment 7:

[0039] On the basis of the above embodiment, this embodiment further defines the structure of the tree support, as Figures 1 - 3 shown. The cylinder 2 is formed by splicing four arc-shaped tile-shaped steel casings 21. The bottom plate 1 is also formed by splicing four steel plates. Each fixing layer 3 is composed of four strong springs 31 distributed in a circular array with the tree 6 as the center. One end of each strong spring 31 is fixedly connected to the middle of the corresponding tile-shaped steel casing 21. The splicing unit composed of the tile-shaped steel casing 21 and the lower steel plate can be directly assembled on the outer wall of the tree 6. If the number of splicing units is too large, the splicing process will be more complicated and the overall stability of the tree support will decrease. If the number of splicing units is too small, the volume of the splicing unit will be too large and it will not be convenient to carry. After comprehensive consideration, it is preferred here that the number of splicing units is four, that is, the cylinder 2 is formed by splicing four arc-shaped tile-shaped steel casings 21, and the bottom plate 1 is also formed by splicing four steel plates. In addition, the fixing layer 3 is also composed of four strong springs 31 and is formed by splicing four structures, with less processing difficulty and an optimal splicing process. Other parts of this embodiment are the same as those of the above embodiment and will not be described in detail.

[0040] Embodiment 8:

[0041] On the basis of the above embodiment, this embodiment further increases the number of extended anti-pull screws 5, as Figure 2As shown, each steel plate that can be assembled into the bottom plate 1 is fixed to the ground by three elongated anti-pull screws 5 that are not on the same straight line. In order to ensure that each steel plate assembled into the bottom plate 1 can be well fixed, according to the fact that three points not on the same straight line determine a plane, and for the sake of simplifying the construction process and reducing the cost of the tree support, it is preferred that each steel plate is fixed to the ground by three elongated anti-pull screws 5 that are not on the same straight line to ensure the stability of the fixation of each steel plate, and it is preferred that the fixing points of the elongated anti-pull screws 5 are at the edges of each steel plate. Other parts of this embodiment are the same as those of the above embodiment and will not be described in detail.

[0042] It can be understood that for the road tree support structure according to an embodiment of the present invention, the working principles and processes of components such as the strong spring 31 and the reinforcing rib 4 are prior arts and are well known to those skilled in the art, and will not be described in detail here.
