[0025] As Figures 1-6 shown, a tree branch corrector includes a fixing plate 1. Fixed buckles 2 for clamping on a tree branch 8 are arranged at both ends of the fixing plate 1. A plurality of correction buckles 3 are arranged in the middle of the fixing plate 1. The correction buckles 3 are arranged in an open structure on one side. An adjusting bolt 4 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the correction buckle 3. An adjusting threaded hole 11 is formed on the fixing plate 1. The adjusting bolt 4 passes through the fixing plate 1 and is in threaded cooperation with the adjusting threaded hole 11. An angle stabilizing device 6 is arranged on the fixing plate 1. A clamping device 7 for clamping on a tree trunk 9 is connected to the end of the angle stabilizing device 6. Rotate the adjusting bolt 4 to adjust the distance between the correction buckle 3 and the fixing plate 1 to correct the branch. Specifically, a disc handle is fixedly connected to the end of the adjusting bolt 4 away from the correction buckle 3 to facilitate manually rotating the adjusting bolt 4.
[0026] Adopting the above technical solution, the two ends of the fixing plate 1 are clamped on the tree branch 8 through the fixed buckles 2, the correction buckle 3 is buckled on the tree branch 8, and the distance between the correction buckle 3 and the fixing plate 1 is adjusted by rotating the adjusting bolt 4 to adjust the bending degree of the branches of the tree branch 8. The clamping device 7 is surrounded on the tree trunk 9, and the included angle between the fixing plate 1 and the tree trunk 9 is adjusted by adjusting the angle stabilizing device 6, so as to adjust the inclination angle of the tree branch 8.
[0027] Specifically, the angle stabilizing device 6 includes a connecting seat 61 hinged on one side of the fixing plate 1. An adjusting pipe 62 is rotatably connected to the connecting seat 61. Internal threads are provided on the inner wall of the adjusting pipe 62. The adjusting pipe 62 is connected with a connecting rod 63. External threads are provided on the rod body of the connecting rod 63. The connecting rod 63 is inserted into the pipe hole of the adjusting pipe 62 and forms a threaded fit through the external threads and the internal threads. The end of the connecting rod 63 away from the adjusting pipe 62 is connected with the clamping device 7. By rotating the adjusting pipe 62, the adjusting pipe 62 and the connecting rod 63 rotate relative to each other, adjusting the relative position between the connecting rod 63 and the adjusting pipe 62, and further adjusting the angle between the fixing plate 1 and the tree trunk 9, so as to adjust the angle between the tree branch 8 integrally bound to the fixing plate 1 and the tree trunk 9.
[0028] Specifically, the clamping device 7 includes a first clamping arc plate 71 and a second clamping arc plate 72. The ends of the first clamping arc plate 71 and the second clamping arc plate 72 are hinged. The first clamping arc plate 71 is hinged to the end of the connecting rod 63. Clamping plates 73 are fixedly connected to one end of the first clamping arc plate 71 and the second clamping arc plate 72 away from the connecting rod 63. Mounting holes are formed in the clamping plates 73, and bolts are inserted through the mounting holes. The clamping plates 73 on the first clamping arc plate 71 and the second clamping arc plate 72 are connected by bolts to lock the first clamping arc plate 71 and the second clamping arc plate 72 onto the tree trunk 9. By buckling the first clamping arc plate 71 and the second clamping arc plate 72 on the tree trunk 9 and tightening the first clamping arc plate 71 and the second clamping arc plate 72 with bolts, the clamping device 7 is clamped onto the tree trunk 9 to maintain a stable position.
[0029] Specifically, a rocking handle 64 is fixedly connected to one end of the adjusting tube 62 away from the first clamping arc plate 71. By rocking the adjusting tube 62 with the rocking handle 64, the adjusting tube 62 rotates, adjusting the length of the connecting rod 63 inserted into the adjusting tube 62, thereby adjusting the distance between the fixing plate 1 and the clamping device 7, and thus adjusting the angle between the fixing plate 1 and the tree trunk 9. When the rocking stops, the internal thread and the external thread are self-locked, keeping the angle of the fixing plate 1 stable.
[0030] Specifically, the fixing buckle 2 includes a cushion block 21 fixed on the fixing plate 1. A first clamping block 22 is fixedly connected to the cushion block 21. One end of the first clamping block 22 is hinged to a second clamping block 23. The second clamping block 23 is of an arc-shaped structure. A locking block 24 is fixedly connected to the end of the second clamping block 23 away from the hinged end with the first clamping block 22. A U-shaped groove 241 is formed in the locking block 24. A locking bolt 25 is arranged in the U-shaped groove 241. The U-shaped groove 241 facilitates buckling the second clamping block 23 on the first clamping block 22 without removing the locking bolt 25. A locking threaded hole is formed in the first clamping block 22. The locking bolt 25 passes through the locking block 24 and is in threaded fit with the locking threaded hole to clamp the first clamping block 22 and the second clamping block 23 onto the tree branch 8. By tightening the locking bolt 25, the first clamping block 22 and the second clamping block 23 are clamped onto the tree branch 8, thereby clamping the fixing buckle 2 onto the tree branch 8, keeping the two ends of the fixing plate 1 in a relatively stable position with respect to the tree branch 8, and thus facilitating correcting the bent tree branch 8 to the required degree of bending.
[0031] Specifically, the correction buckle 3 includes a first clamping plate 31 and a second clamping plate 32. A connecting plate 33 is fixedly connected between the first clamping plate 31 and the second clamping plate 32 to form a U-shaped structure. The first clamping plate 31 and the second clamping plate 32 are arranged in parallel and are both parallel to the fixing plate 1. The second clamping plate 32 is rotatably connected to the end of the adjusting bolt 4. When in use, the branch 8 is inserted into the space between the first clamping plate 31 and the second clamping plate 32 from the opening side of the U-shaped structure. The first clamping plate 31 is parallel to the fixing plate 1, so that the first clamping plate 31 is not easy to slide when pulling the branch 8.
[0032] Specifically, an arc-shaped groove is provided on the first clamping block 22, and a first rubber pad 26 is arranged in the arc-shaped groove; a second rubber pad 27 is arranged on the side of the second clamping block 23 close to the first clamping block 22. A third rubber pad 34 is arranged on the inner side of the correction buckle 3. The rubber pads are in contact with the branch 8, so as to reduce the damage to the outer surface of the branch 8 during correction and prevent the phloem from being damaged.
[0033] In the technical solution of the present application, when in use, the correction buckle 3 is buckled on the branch 8 to be corrected, and then the fixing buckle 2 is buckled on the branch 8. The adjusting bolt 4 is rotated to adjust the distance between the correction buckle 3 and the fixing plate 1 to correct the branch. After the branch is bent and corrected to the required position, the fixing buckle 2 is locked. Then the clamping device 7 is buckled and locked on the tree trunk 9, and the relative position between the connecting rod 63 and the adjusting tube 62 is adjusted, so as to adjust the angle between the fixing plate 1 and the tree trunk 9, and thus adjust the angle between the branch 8 integrally bound with the fixing plate 1 and the tree trunk 9.
[0034] The parts not involved in this technical solution can be realized by using the prior art.
