Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of planting vine economic crops, in particular to a combined frame for planting vine plants. Background Art
[0002] During the growth and development of existing vine-growing cash crops (such as kiwifruit, grapes, and passion fruit), branch management significantly impacts fruit yield and stem, foliage, and leaf growth. Therefore, growing racks are necessary to secure and guide the branches. Current growing racks typically utilize simple brackets combined with ropes to create a rope-type rack. This approach is simple and inexpensive. However, crops like kiwifruit, grapes, and passion fruit are perennials, with fruiting cycles ranging from a few years to over a decade. Furthermore, when a branch bears fruit, it can produce numerous fruits. Over time, the resulting increase in fruit production can place significant strain on the rack ropes, causing them to sag or even collapse. This results in uneven rack heights, causing some branches to be too low, significantly reducing sunlight exposure and resulting in a lower fruit flavor, making it difficult to meet customer needs. Furthermore, this uneven rack height can disrupt branch growth, reduce, or even block, the space between racks, making it difficult to access the racks for crop pruning or fruit collection. Therefore, in view of the above situation, it is necessary to develop a planting rack with stable and reliable support to overcome the shortcomings in current practical applications and meet current needs.

A number of sub-frames 3 are movably hinged at the middle and upper parts of the main frame 2, respectively. Even if the sub-frames 3 can be rotated up and down to adjust the angle with the main frame 2, an adjustment rod 4 is provided on the top of the main frame 2 to adjust An adjusting rope 5 is provided on the section rod 4, which is connected obliquely downward to the sub-frame 3. At least one auxiliary frame 6 is provided at the free end of each sub-frame 3. The length of the sub-frame 3 can be extended by increasing or decreasing the number of auxiliary frames 6 to meet the support requirements of different spans. An adjusting rope 5 is provided on the auxiliary frame 6 to connect the adjusting rod 4. At least two liquid distribution pipes 7 are provided on the top of the adjusting rod 4. The free end of each liquid distribution pipe 7 is provided with a nozzle 8. A liquid supply pipe 9 is provided in the adjusting rod 4 and extends downward to the middle and lower part of the main frame 2. The upper end of the liquid supply pipe 9 is connected to each liquid distribution pipe 7 through a three-dimensional multi-way joint. Even if the liquid distribution pipe 13 is radially arranged on the three-dimensional multi-way joint, the lower end is connected to the liquid supply network through a joint. The liquid supply network is connected to the liquid source. A liquid pump is provided at the liquid source. When in use, the liquid pump pumps the liquid to the liquid supply pipe 9 through the liquid supply network. The liquid supply pipe 9 supplies each liquid distribution pipe 7, and finally the liquid is sprayed onto the vine crops by the nozzle 8.
[0016] The sub-frame 3 and auxiliary frame 6 are respectively provided with a trapezoidal or triangular tower-shaped steel frame structure, and fixed connection holes are respectively provided at both ends of the sub-frame 3 and the auxiliary frame 6. The connection holes are formed by punching holes in metal plates and then welding them to the sub-frame 3 and the auxiliary frame 6, or by welding steel pipes to the sub-frame 3 and the auxiliary frame 6.
[0017] The middle and upper parts of the main frame 2 are respectively provided with hinged supports 10, which are hinged to the sub-frame 3 so that the sub-frame 3 droops under the action of its own gravity, and then is pulled upward by adjusting the rope 5 to adjust the position height. A U-shaped screw 11 is provided on the hinged support 10, and the hinged support 10 is fixedly connected to the vertical pole or horizontal pole of the main frame 2 by the U-shaped screw 11 and the nut. This structure facilitates the installation and fixation of the sub-frame 3 and the main frame 2, and can also adaptively adjust the height of the sub-frame 3 according to usage requirements.
[0018] The adjusting rod 4 is provided with rings 12 in the circumferential axial direction from bottom to top. Each ring 12 is fixedly connected to the adjusting rod 4 through a support rod, and the gap between the ring 12 and the adjusting rod 4 is the adjusting hole 13 for connecting the adjusting rope 5.
[0019] The adjusting rope 5 is any one of an iron wire, a steel wire, a steel rope or an iron chain, and the diameter of the iron wire or the steel wire is not less than 2 mm. When in use, the lower end of the adjusting rope 5 is fixed to the sub-frame 3 or the auxiliary frame 6, and the upper end is fixed to the ring 12 of the adjusting rod 4, that is, the adjusting hole 13; when it is necessary to adjust the sub-frame 3 or the auxiliary frame 6 to lift upward, the adjusting rope 5 with a shorter length than the original adjusting rope 5 can be replaced; when it is necessary to adjust the sub-frame 3 or the auxiliary frame 6 to descend, the adjusting rope 5 with a longer length than the original adjusting rope 5 can be replaced.
[0020] The upper part or top of the adjusting rod 4 is provided with a wind-powered bird-scare device 14 through an L-shaped bracket. The lower end of the L-shaped bracket is provided with a hoop connected to the adjusting rod 4, and the upper end is provided with the wind-powered bird-scare device 14.
[0021] The nozzle 8 is a rotating nozzle, which makes the water or liquid medicine sprayed more evenly.
[0022] The liquid supply pipe 9 and the liquid distribution pipe 7 are respectively metal pipes, which increase their service life.
[0023] An S-shaped binding hook is provided in the lower middle part of the main frame 2. When the vine crops are in the early growth stage, the binding hook is used to hook the stems, leaves and branches, so that the branches climb upward along the main frame 2, solving the problem that the branches are too young to effectively climb and grow upward along the main frame 2.
[0024] The working method of the present invention is as follows: when in use, the base 1 made of concrete is buried in the soil, or cast on-site in the soil of the installation site, and is used after the concrete is dried. The main frame 2 is fixed to the anchor bolts of the base 1 by nuts; according to the use requirements, the installation positions and numbers of the sub-frames 3 on the main frame 2 are determined, and the corresponding number of articulated supports 10 are selected and installed on the main frame 2 from bottom to top. At the same time, at least three articulated supports 10 are selected on the circumference of the same horizontal plane of the main frame 2;
[0025] Subsequently, the sub-frame 3 is hingedly installed on the hinged support 10, and then a corresponding number of adjustment ropes 5 are selected and installed on the adjustment holes 13 of the adjustment rod 4, and the lower ends are connected to the sub-frame 3, so that one adjustment rope 5 is connected to one sub-frame 3; during the growth process, the vine crops first climb upward along the main frame 2, and after a period of growth, the growth direction of the vines is manually adjusted so that the vine branches climb and grow along the sub-frame 3, and the main stem of the vine grows upward along the main frame 2 until it climbs to the top sub-frame 3, and then climbs and grows along the sub-frame 3.
[0026] During the growth process of vine crops, in order to ensure that they effectively cling to the sub-frame 3 and that the sub-frame 3 effectively guides the growth direction of the vine crops, the length of the adjustment rope 5 is first adjusted according to demand, so that the sub-frame 3 rotates downward on the main frame 2, thereby lowering the support height of the sub-frame 3 so that the young stems and leaves of the vine crops can cling to it; after the young stems and leaves grow to a certain extent, the vine branches and stems and leaves in the low places are trimmed and removed, and the length of the adjustment rope 5 is adjusted and shortened, so that the sub-frame 3 rotates upward on the main frame 2, thereby raising the support height of the sub-frame 3, and finally guiding the vine crops to grow into the desired shape on the main frame 2 and the sub-frame 3, and leaving a space channel for manual operation.
[0027] Since vine crops have a large growth space, after they develop to a certain extent, the length of the sub-frame 3 needs to be lengthened for support and guidance. Therefore, in the subsequent use process, the auxiliary frame 6 is selected to be movably hinged to the end of the sub-frame 3, and each auxiliary frame 6 is respectively provided with an adjustment rope 5 connecting the adjustment hole 13, so that the auxiliary frame 6 can be suspended and installed on the sub-frame 3, and during use, the auxiliary frame 6 can be adjusted in height in the same way as the sub-frame 3; in addition, by connecting several auxiliary frames 6, it can be connected to the sub-frame 3 or auxiliary frame 6 on the adjacent main frame 2 as a whole.
[0028] When it is necessary to spray pesticides or irrigate vine crops, the liquid supply network is connected to the liquid source, that is, a water source or a tank equipped with pesticide liquid, and the liquid pump is started. The water or pesticide liquid is pumped to the liquid supply pipe 9 through the liquid supply network, and the liquid supply pipe 9 supplies each liquid distribution pipe 7. Finally, the rotary nozzle 8 sprays it onto the plants, thereby achieving irrigation or pesticide spraying.
