Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of branch fixers, in particular to a tree growth guiding structure. Background Art

[0002] In fruit tree cultivation, controlling the growth direction of branches is an important technical means to improve fruit yield and quality. Traditional fruit tree management methods often rely on natural growth or simple manual tying. This method is not only inefficient, but also difficult to accurately control the growth direction of branches. It also causes certain mechanical damage to the trees, affecting the healthy growth of fruit trees. In recent years, with the development of agricultural mechanization and intelligence, a new type of tree growth guiding structure - branch fixer (guiding structure) has emerged, but the existing technology still has certain limitations.

[0003] Currently, most branch fixers on the market are disposable or fixed-length designs. Although these devices can play a certain guiding role when fixing branches, due to the fixed length of the fixers, they cannot adapt to the changes in the length of branches at different growth stages, resulting in the need to frequently replace the fixers during the growth of the branches, which increases the labor intensity and cost of fruit farmers. In addition, many fixers are made of hard materials, which can easily scratch or compress the branches during the fixing process, increasing the risk of trees being infected with diseases and pests. Many fixer designs fail to fully consider the growth needs of trees. Wrapping too tightly leads to poor air permeability, affecting the normal breathing and nutrient absorption of branches. Utility Model Content

[0004] The utility model aims to at least solve the technical problem in the prior art that the length of a tree growth guiding structure is fixed and cannot be adjusted, and in particular innovatively proposes a tree growth guiding structure.

[0029] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, a tree growth guiding structure, the guiding structure comprises:

[0031] The first fixing member 1 is in an "L"-shaped structure;

[0032] The second fixing member 3 is connected to the first fixing member 1 through the first telescopic assembly 2 and has a "T"-shaped structure;

[0033] The third fixing member 4 is connected to the second fixing member 3 via the second telescopic assembly 7 and has an "L"-shaped structure.

[0034] like Figure 1As shown, when in use, the length of the first fixing member 1 can be adjusted by the first telescopic assembly 2. When the length of the first fixing member 1 reaches the appropriate length, the first fixing member 1 is fastened to the second fixing member 3 by the fixing screw 203 and the fixing screw hole 202. The principle of the third fixing member 4 using the second telescopic assembly 7 to adjust the length is the same as the first fixing member 1 mentioned above, and the installation method is also exactly the same. By adjusting the length of the first fixing member 1 and the third fixing member 4, the guide structure of this embodiment can adapt to branches of different lengths, so as to control the bending degree of different branches. Specifically, when in use, the first fixing member 1 and the third fixing member 4 press the branches downward, and the second fixing member 3 lifts the branches upward, thereby changing the growth direction of the branches, so that the branches can grow along the preset direction.

[0035] As an optional embodiment of the present utility model, optionally, the first telescopic assembly 2 and the second telescopic assembly 7 have the same structure;

[0036] The first telescopic assembly 2 comprises:

[0037] The connecting rod 201 has one end fixed on the second fixing member 3 and the other end movably arranged in the first fixing member 1; Figure 3 As shown, one end of the connecting rod 201 is fixed to the second fixing member 3 by welding, and the other end of the connecting rod 201 is connected with the polygonal hole opened in the first fixing member 1. When the other end of the connecting rod 201 is not fixed by the fixing screw 203, it can move back and forth in the polygonal hole, but cannot rotate.

[0038] At least two fixing screw holes 202 are provided on the connecting rod 201. Figure 3 As shown, all the fixing screw holes 202 are sequentially and evenly opened on the top of the connecting rod 201 , and the fixing screw holes 202 are used to cooperate with the fixing screws 203 to fix the first fixing member 1 on the second fixing member 3 .

[0039] The fixing screw 203 is disposed on the first fixing member 1 and cooperates with the fixing screw hole 202 to fix the first fixing member 1 to the connecting rod 201. In this embodiment, the fixing screw 203 is an ordinary screw. When the first fixing member 1 has been extended to a suitable position, the first fixing member 1 is fixed by the fixing screw 203 cooperating with the corresponding fixing screw hole 202.

[0040] As an optional embodiment of the present invention, optionally, the cross-section of the connecting rod 201 is a polygonal structure, and a polygonal hole matching with the connecting rod 201 is opened in the first fixing member 1 .

[0041] like Figure 3As shown, the connecting rod 201 is designed as a polygonal structure in order to prevent the first fixing member 1 from rotating on the connecting rod 201 and improve the stability of the guide structure of this embodiment.

[0042] As an optional embodiment of the present utility model, optionally, the first fixing member 1 , the second fixing member 3 and the third fixing member 4 are all provided with a concave portion 6 .

[0043] like Figure 1 and 2 As shown, the concave portions 6 of the first fixing member 1 and the second fixing member 3 are both opened at the bottom, and the concave portion 6 of the third fixing member 4 is opened at the top. The concave portions 6 are both used to fit with the branches to prevent the branches from being damaged when being acted upon by the guide structure of this embodiment, thereby affecting their growth.

[0044] As an optional embodiment of the present utility model, optionally, a plurality of air holes 5 are provided on the concave portion 6 .

[0045] like Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the air holes 5 are opened to the maximum extent without affecting the rigidity of the guide structure, and the air holes 5 allow the branches to breathe and absorb nutrients normally, so that they can grow healthily.

[0046] As an optional embodiment of the present invention, optionally, an anti-slip pad is provided on the concave portion 6, and the anti-slip pad is breathable.

[0047] The anti-skid pads are fixed on all the concave parts 6 by gluing. By installing the anti-skid pads on the concave parts 6, the guide structure of this embodiment can be effectively prevented from falling off the tree branches when strong winds blow.

[0048] As an optional embodiment of the present utility model, optionally, an anti-corrosion layer is provided on the first telescopic component 2, the second telescopic component 7, the first fixing member 1, the second fixing member 3 and the third fixing member 4.

[0049] Applying an anti-corrosion layer on the first telescopic component 2, the second telescopic component 7, the first fixing member 1, the second fixing member 3 and the third fixing member 4 of the present embodiment can prevent the guide structure of the present embodiment from being corroded in the natural environment, thereby extending the service life of the guide structure of the present embodiment.

[0050] As an optional embodiment of the present invention, the first telescopic assembly 2 and the second telescopic assembly 7 are optionally made of metal materials. The first fixing member 1, the second fixing member 3 and the third fixing member 4 are made of metal materials.

[0051] In this embodiment, the first telescopic component 2 and the second telescopic component 7 are made of alloy, and the first fixing member 1, the second fixing member 3 and the third fixing member 4 are made of steel, so that this embodiment is not easy to deform and has good structural stability.

[0052] As an optional embodiment of the present invention, optionally, the first fixing member 1 and the third fixing member 4 are mirror-symmetrical.

[0053] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, those skilled in the art will appreciate that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the claims and their equivalents.
