Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of auxiliary tools for bean cultivation, specifically to a vine trellis for the cyclical use of bean cultivation. Background Technology

[0002] Common beans, also known as string beans, kidney beans, and jade beans, are annual, twining or nearly erect herbaceous plants belonging to the genus *Vigna* of the legume family. They are one of my country's important vegetable crops. Common beans can be divided into three types: vining, semi-vining, and dwarf. Vining beans are indeterminate, with stems reaching 3-5 meters in length. They are climbing, twining in a left-handed manner, and require trellises for cultivation. Dwarf beans are determinate, with an upright main stem and a plant height typically 40-50 cm. When planting vining beans, vine supports are needed. By erecting supports and stakes, the growing space of the beans is expanded, guiding their growth, promoting vigorous development, and increasing fruit yield. In addition, using vine supports for auxiliary support can prevent mechanical damage, provide auxiliary support for the beans, improve their ability to bear their own weight and resist wind and rain, and also facilitate field management and the removal of old and yellow leaves.

[0003] Vining beans twine around support stakes as they grow. In current production, thin bamboo poles are often used to create trellises for the vines to climb. In greenhouse cultivation, these trellises are typically U-shaped or simply vertical poles, which is convenient for harvesting. Because the vines are tightly wrapped around the trellis, after harvesting, the vines are usually pulled out and then collected for cleaning, or simply discarded and replaced with new vines. However, cleaning the vines is difficult because they are so tightly intertwined, and discarding them outright is wasteful.

[0004] To address the problem of difficult-to-clean pumpkin vines, utility model publication CN217770974U discloses an easy-to-clean pumpkin vine support, comprising several support units connected to form the vine support. Each support unit includes a tube, a cutting device, and a cutting mechanism. The tube has a slotted hole at its bottom. The cutting device is located inside the tube, with its cutting portion extending outside the tube through the slotted hole. The cutting device is used to cut the pumpkin vines wrapped around the tube. A transmission device moves the cutting device left and right within the tube. When the transmission device is activated, it moves the cutting device within the tube, and the cutting portion cuts the pumpkin vines wrapped around the tube. After cutting, the vines can be easily removed, significantly reducing the workload for workers.

[0005] While the above techniques can clear vines from the vines, these devices are typically exposed to wind, sun, and rain outdoors. Without lubrication, the cutting and transmission devices using these techniques are difficult to reuse and require significant maintenance. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a reusable climbing trellis for bean cultivation that allows for easy removal of vines, is simple to maintain, can be reused multiple times, and has low cost.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0008] The bean cultivation trellis uses a cyclical climbing system, including upright posts with insert cones at the bottom, joint heads, crossbars, and blade sleeves. The upright posts are inserted vertically into the soil. The lower end of the joint head is sleeve-shaped, and the upper end is a retaining ring.

[0009] The upright column is inserted horizontally between at least two upright columns and is located at the upper end of the joint head.

[0010] The blade sleeve is slidably mounted on the upright column or the crossbar column. A detachable movable buckle is provided between the lower end of the joint head and the upper end of the blade sleeve. A cutting groove extending along the length direction is provided on the upright column and the crossbar column. The cutting blade of the blade sleeve is embedded in the cutting groove and moves.

[0011] Furthermore, the blade sleeve has a hollow protruding wall on the side where the cutting blade is installed. A blade holder is located inside the hollow protruding wall, and a blade U-shaped groove is located on the side of the blade holder facing the central axis. A fixing bolt passes through the hollow protruding wall in a transverse direction. The cutting blade is trapezoidal and is held in the blade U-shaped groove with its cutting edge facing downwards. The cutting blade has a bolt hole, and the fixing bolt passes transversely through the blade U-shaped groove and the bolt hole for easy installation and removal. The blade sleeve can move up and down, allowing it to move with the cutting blade to cut the vines on the upright and horizontal posts, quickly removing tightly wrapped bean vines. The original cutting blade is easy to operate, can be disassembled and replaced, and is essentially concealed inside the sleeve, eliminating concerns about rusting or dulling.

[0012] Furthermore, the tip of the cutting blade is embedded in the cutting groove, and the blade is located in the direction of the inclined side of the trapezoidal cutting blade, which is equivalent to the blade sleeve being on top. This prevents soil from getting stuck, and when cutting vines, pulling from top to bottom makes the vines easy to cut and peel off.

[0013] Furthermore, the cutting blades are in two sets, installed in the hollow protruding walls on both sides of the blade sleeve. The vines generally climb in a spiral, and they will naturally detach when the vines are cut on both sides.

[0014] Furthermore, a handle extending radially is provided on the outer wall of the blade sleeve with a 90-degree angle between the hollow protruding wall and the blade sleeve, which facilitates quick pressing down of the blade sleeve. Generally, after the seasonal vegetables have been fully harvested, we can first cut the vines and directly turn the vines into the soil to ferment and become fertilizer, and only the support pole needs to be recycled.

[0015] Furthermore, a lower limiting ring is provided at the top of the inserted cone. The diameter of the lower limiting ring is larger than the diameter of the blade sleeve. This prevents the blade sleeve from falling off when cutting westward. If it falls off, it has to be put back on one by one, avoiding trouble.

[0016] Furthermore, an upper limit ring is provided at the top of the crossbar column, and the diameter of the upper limit ring is larger than the diameter of the blade sleeve.

[0017] Furthermore, a tightening bolt is provided at the upper opening of the joint head ring to facilitate the assembly of the transverse column.

[0018] Furthermore, the construction of horizontal poles includes, but is not limited to, horizontal, vertical, or crisscross construction, which is flexible and can meet both small-scale planting and large-scale greenhouse construction planting modes.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are: it can be reused with minimal maintenance, it has a purely mechanized structure, low recycling cost, the cutting blade can be replaced at any time, and there will be no problem with the cutting blade becoming dull. It is environmentally friendly and economical, and the climbing trellis with multiple construction methods has the flexibility to be used, which can meet both small-scale planting and large-scale greenhouse construction planting modes.

[0023] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0024] like Figure 1 — Figure 3 The illustrated bean cultivation trellis includes a vertical support post 1 with an insertion cone at the bottom for easy insertion into the soil, a joint head 2, a horizontal support post 3, and a blade sleeve 4. The vertical support post 1 is inserted vertically into the soil. The lower end of the joint head 2 is sleeve-shaped, and the upper end is ring-shaped. A tightening bolt is provided at the opening of the upper end of the ring-shaped joint head. After the horizontal support post is inserted into the ring end, the opening is locked to securely bind the vertical support post 1 and the horizontal support post 3.

[0025] The upright column 1 is inserted into the upper end of the joint head 2 and horizontally erected between at least two upright columns, which is equivalent to building a door-shaped frame, so that the beans can hang long, which is convenient for maintenance and harvesting. The height and width can be controlled, and the upright columns and horizontal columns can also be designed to be telescopic.

[0026] The blade sleeve 4 is slidably mounted on the upright column 1 or the crossbar column 3. A detachable movable buckle 5 is provided between the lower end of the joint head 2 and the upper end of the blade sleeve 4. A cutting groove 10 extending along its length direction is provided on the upright column 1 and the crossbar column 3. The cutting blade of the blade sleeve 4 is embedded in the cutting groove 10 and moves.

[0027] Furthermore, the blade sleeve 4 has an integrally formed hollow protruding wall 41 on the side where the cutting blade 40 is installed. This is a non-standard part cast in a mold. A blade holder 42 is provided on the inner side (vertical side) of the hollow protruding wall 41. A blade U-shaped groove is provided on the side of the blade holder 42 facing the central axis. A fixing bolt passes through the hollow protruding wall 41 in the transverse direction. The cutting blade 40 is trapezoidal in shape and is held in the blade U-shaped groove. The cutting edge of the cutting blade 41 faces downward. The blade of the cutting blade 41 has a bolt hole. The fixing bolt passes through the blade U-shaped groove and the bolt hole laterally and can be detached and installed. Essentially, the lower end of the hollow protruding wall 41 is not closed. When installing the cutting blade 40, it slides in from bottom to top. First, the blade tip should be aligned with the cutting groove 10. After sliding in, the fixing bolt 43 passes through laterally, locking the blade in the blade U-shaped groove of the blade holder 42. The bolt and nut are then tightened to secure it.

[0028] The tip of the cutting blade 40 is embedded in the cutting groove 10, and the blade is located in the direction of the inclined side of the trapezoidal cutting blade. When cutting from top to bottom, the blade of the cutting blade is facing down, or when cutting from bottom to top, the blade is facing up.

[0029] We can also design the upright post 1 and the cross post 3 as telescopic structures, with the cutting blade 40 fixed in the U-shaped groove by a spring. This allows it to automatically adjust the pressure applied to the vines when facing vines of different thicknesses. When facing the stepped sections of the telescopic upright post or cross post, it can also cut flexibly according to the direction of the cutting groove, avoiding blade jamming. Alternatively, when cutting vines, we can use a syringe to inject lubricating oil from the top of the cutting groove. The lubricating oil flows down the cutting groove, making it easier and smoother to press down the blade sleeve, and also intermittently maintaining the upright post and cross post.

[0030] Alternatively, the cutting blades 40 can be configured as two sets, installed in the hollow protruding walls 41 on both symmetrical sides of the blade sleeve 4. For easy gripping, a handle 44 extending radially is provided on the outer wall of the blade sleeve 4 at a 90-degree angle to the hollow protruding walls 41. Pressing down the handle quickly slides the blade sleeve to complete a more effortless cutting action.

[0031] Furthermore, a lower limiting ring 6 is provided at the top of the inserted cone, and the diameter of the lower limiting ring is larger than the diameter of the blade sleeve. An upper limiting ring is provided at the top of the crossbar, and the diameter of the upper limiting ring is larger than the diameter of the blade sleeve. Both the upper and lower limiting rings are movable and can be directly installed by rotating a knob, which also facilitates the installation and replacement of the blade sleeve.

[0032] The construction of horizontal poles includes, but is not limited to, horizontal, vertical, or crisscross construction. This is the difference between greenhouse and individual farming. Greenhouse farming is large-scale, so horizontal poles can be built in the presence of vertical poles. To maintain temperature, horizontal poles can also be tied horizontally between a row of vertical poles to increase stability, just like building a steel pipe frame.

[0033] The above provides a detailed description of the reusable climbing trellis for bean cultivation provided by this utility model. The specific embodiments are described only to aid in understanding the method and core concept of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications to this utility model without departing from its principles, and these improvements and modifications also fall within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
