Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of horticultural management auxiliary tools, and more specifically to a branch angle opener. Background Technique
[0002] In the process of forest and fruit industry management, timely adjustment and pruning of tree branches are important measures to maintain tree health, promote growth, and optimize the crown structure. With the increasingly diverse management requirements of the forest and fruit industry, traditional branch adjustment methods have gradually shown their limitations. Traditional branch adjustment methods often rely on manual tools such as ropes and wooden sticks for individual adjustment. This method not only has a large labor intensity but also has low efficiency. Adjusting branches one by one will consume a lot of time and manpower and is difficult to meet the needs of efficient management.
[0003] The emergence of branch angle openers has improved the efficiency of branch adjustment to a certain extent. However, most of the existing branch angle openers are fixed designs and cannot be flexibly adjusted according to the different directions and angles of branches; moreover, it is difficult to achieve simultaneous adjustment of multiple branches.
[0004] Therefore, how to provide a branch angle opener that can adjust multiple branches simultaneously and has flexibility and adaptability is an urgent problem to be solved by those skilled in the art. Content of the Utility Model
[0005] In view of this, the utility model provides a branch angle opener, aiming to solve the above technical problems.
[0006] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical scheme:
[0007] A branch angle opener, comprising:
[0008] A clamp, an annular groove is formed on the outer side wall of the clamp, and a plurality of sliders are slidably connected in the annular groove. Each slider can be fastened to the annular groove through a first fastener;
[0009] A support member; the number of the support members is the same as that of the sliders and corresponds one by one. One end of the support member is hinged to the slider, and the other end is formed with a V-shaped tooth opening.
[0010] Through the above technical scheme, the utility model provides a branch angler, which fixes the clamp on the trunk of the tree, and can adjust the position of the slider according to the position of the branch by sliding a plurality of sliders in the annular groove on the outer wall of the clamp. When it is necessary to adjust the position of the slider, loosen the first fastener, and when the adjustment position is determined, tighten the first fastener to ensure stability, thereby meeting the needs of opening the angle of branches at different positions. The support member hinged on the slider can adjust the angle of the support member at will to achieve the angle adjustment of the branch opening. The end of the support member away from the slider forms a V-shaped tooth mouth, and the V-shaped tooth mouth realizes the clamping of the branch. The utility model has a simple structure, can open the angles of multiple branches at the same time, and can meet the opening angle adjustment of branches at different positions. It has the characteristics of flexibility and adaptability and is suitable for promotion.
[0011] Preferably, in the above-mentioned branch angler, the side of the slider away from the annular groove has a double-piece ear seat, the double-piece ear seat extends to the outside of the annular groove and is hinged to the end of the support member away from the V-shaped tooth opening. The hinged structure can adjust the contact position between the V-shaped tooth opening and the branch at will, thereby achieving the angle adjustment of the opening angle, which is easy to operate and has adaptability and flexibility.
