[0002] Soil loosening is a very critical soil management measure in forestry planting. It breaks up the compaction of the soil surface, increases soil aeration, and allows better air circulation. It also helps the soil absorb and store water, increases soil aeration and water penetration, and makes it easier for tree roots to obtain the required water, providing a more favorable growth environment for tree roots. Soil loosening can also reduce the growth of weeds and other plants on the soil surface, thereby reducing competition with trees.

[0003] In the prior art, for large-scale soil loosening operations, tools such as rotary tillers are mainly used to quickly and deeply loosen the soil. However, this will cause serious damage to the roots of trees already planted in the soil, and is only suitable for the land preparation stage before tree planting. For small-scale soil loosening operations, tools such as gardening forks, shovels, and hoes are mainly used. Handheld tools are used to gently turn the soil multiple times to break up the compaction of the soil surface. However, due to the uncertainty of manual operation experience, the tips of the gardening forks or hoes will penetrate deep into the ground during the digging process, thereby scratching the roots of the trees and increasing the risk of tree root diseases. Therefore, the present application provides a soil loosening device for forestry planting. Utility Model Content

For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; mechanical connections, electrical connections; direct connections, indirect connections through an intermediate medium, and internal communication between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0028] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other. It should also be noted that, for ease of description, only the parts related to the utility model are shown in the drawings. Example 1:

[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a loosening device for forestry planting, including a shovel depth limit seat 11 and a loosening platform 21, the loosening platform 21 is movably installed in the shovel depth limit seat 11, and a plurality of loosening pestles 22 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the loosening platform 21; the bottom of the loosening pestle 22 is integrally formed with a conical head 221, so that the loosening pestle 22 can be easily inserted downward into the ground; a plurality of loosening pestles 22 are evenly spaced at the bottom of the loosening platform 21, and the bottom of the loosening pestle 22 passes through the shovel depth limit seat 11 and extends toward the lower side of the shovel depth limit seat 11.

[0030] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a sliding column 25 is fixedly installed on the top of the loosening platform 21. The top of the sliding column 25 passes through the shoveling depth limit seat 11 and extends toward the upper side of the shoveling depth limit seat 11. A spring 26 is fixedly installed between the lower side of the top of the sliding column 25 and the shoveling depth limit seat 11, and a handle 33 is connected to the sliding column 25.

[0031] like Figure 4 As shown, the side of the loosening pestle 22 is integrally formed with a limiting edge 23 , and the upper side of the limiting edge 23 abuts and cooperates with the lower side of the shovel depth limiting seat 11 .

[0032] The details of the soil loosening device for forestry planting using this application are as follows:

[0033] Holding the handle 33, the entire device is controlled to periodically rise and fall. During the falling process, the entire device is controlled to move horizontally. When the bottom of the loosening pestle 22 contacts the ground, the handle 33 is pressed down, so that the loosening pestle 22 is further extended relative to the bottom of the shovel depth limiter 11, and the loosening pestle 22 is used to loosen the soil deeper from the surface.

[0034] When the handle 33 is no longer pressed down, the loosening pestle 22 is retracted and reset into the shovel depth limit seat 11 under the action of the spring 26, leaving only the end of the loosening pestle 22 protruding from the bottom of the shovel depth limit seat 11, and the end of the loosening pestle 22 is used to loosen the shallow soil on the surface;

[0035] During the implementation of the above operation, since the bottom surface of the shovel depth limit seat 11 can be well in contact with the ground, and the distance between the top of the sliding column 25 and the upper side of the shovel depth limit seat 11 is easy to observe, the depth of the tip of the loosening tool penetrating into the ground is effectively limited, avoiding scratching damage to the tree roots, reducing the risk of tree roots getting infected during the loosening operation, and having high safety in use.

[0036] Among them, arc surfaces 111 are respectively provided on both sides of the bottom of the shovel depth limiter 11, so that the bottom edge of the shovel depth limiter 11 has no sharp corners, thereby avoiding serious scraping damage to the surface soil when the shovel depth limiter 11 is dragged.

[0037] In order to facilitate the use of the handle 33, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the handle 33 is connected to the slide post 25 through the U-shaped seat 32 and the frame 31; the frame 31 is fixedly installed above the two slide posts 25, and the U-shaped seat 32 is rotatably installed on the middle outer side of the frame 31. The handle 33 is detachably fixed on the U-shaped seat 32, so that the holding posture of the handle 33 is relatively free and can adapt to various terrain conditions in the woods.

[0038] Example 2:

[0040] During the subsequent soil loosening operation, the bottom of the loosening pestle 22 is against the top of the soil discharged from the soil storage cavity, and this part of the soil is used as a medium, so that the bottom of the loosening pestle 22 is not completely in contact with the soil originally on the ground, thereby preventing the loosening pestle 22 from directly transmitting the force generated by the loosening of the soil to the roots of the trees close to the ground, further reducing the scratching damage to the roots of the trees.

[0041] In order to facilitate adding soil in the shovel depth limit seat 11, as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, an inspection cover 12 is detachably fixedly installed on the top of the shovel depth limit seat 11, so that the sliding column 25 is slidably connected to the inspection cover 12, and the spring 26 is fixedly installed between the sliding column 25 and the inspection cover 12, and a soil filling cylinder 13 is provided on the inspection cover 12, and a sealing cover 14 is detachably fixedly installed on the top of the soil filling cylinder 13; by removing the sealing cover 14, soil is added to the shovel depth limit seat 11, and by removing the inspection cover 12, the inside of the shovel depth limit seat 11 is cleaned and maintained.

[0042] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present application and an illustration of the technical principles employed. Those skilled in the art should understand that the scope of the utility model disclosed in this application is not limited to the technical solutions formed by the specific combination of the above-mentioned technical features, but also encompasses other technical solutions formed by any combination of the above-mentioned technical features or their equivalents without departing from the concept of the utility model.
