[0025] Working principle description:

[0026] The basic function of this device is the same as that of the utility model patent entitled "A Garden Spherical Plant Pruner" (application number 202320052844.5). The device adjusts the device position through the displacement member 3, adjusts the pruning position through the adjustment member 2, and prunes the plants through the pruning member 5. It is worth noting that when the device is pruning the plants, the motor 7 is started, and the power output end of the motor 7 drives the first rotating shaft 8 to rotate. The rotation of the first rotating shaft 8 drives the first bevel gear 9 to rotate. The rotation of the first bevel gear 9 drives the second bevel gear 10 meshed with it to rotate, so the pruning member 5 follows the operation to prune the plants; in this process, the first rotating shaft 8 rotates, and the rotation of the first rotating shaft 8 drives the driving gear 13 to rotate. The driving gear 13 rotates and drives the driven gear 16 meshed with it to rotate. The driven gear 16 rotates and drives the second rotating shaft 15 to rotate. The second rotating shaft 15 rotates and drives the fourth bevel gear 20 to rotate. The fourth bevel gear 20 rotates and drives the third bevel gear 18 meshed with it to rotate. Therefore, the third rotating shaft 17 rotates, and the rotation of the third rotating shaft 17 drives the fan blades 19 to run and blow off the dead branches.

[0027] Preferably, the support box 6 is sprayed with a coating. Such a structural design reduces the friction damage to the support box 6 and prolongs the service life of the equipment.

[0028] Preferably, a sealing rubber ring is installed at the contact point between the third rotating shaft 17 and the support box 6. Such a structural design makes the support box 6 a sealed structure, prevents the equipment from being affected by moisture, and prolongs the service life of the equipment.

[0029] Preferably, the fan blades 19 are sprayed with a coating. Such a structural design reduces the erosion damage of rain or plant juice to the fan blades 19 and extends the service life of the equipment.

[0030] Preferably, a rubber cushion is installed at the contact point between the support box 6 and the fourth bevel gear 20. Such a structural design reduces the friction damage to the support box 6 and prolongs the service life of the equipment.

[0031] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Anyone skilled in the art may modify or alter the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or alterations made by persons skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and technical principles disclosed herein shall be covered by the claims of the present invention.
