Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of base protection technology, and in particular to a base protection device for standing tree trunks used in mountain forest tending. Background Technology
[0002] In forest management, trees specifically selected and preserved within forest land are typically upright, healthy, and possess high economic or ecological value. Tending, through human intervention, adjusts the forest's structure and density, promoting the growth of these standing trees to improve the overall quality and productivity of the forest. This includes removing overly dense trees, pruning branches, and thinning out inferior trees to ensure that superior trees receive more growing space and resources. This practice helps maintain the ecological balance of the forest, promotes sustainable forest development, and improves timber quality and yield. With proper tending, standing trees can better adapt to environmental changes, enhance the forest's resilience to disasters, support diverse ecological functions, and safeguard biodiversity and carbon storage.
[0003] Tree trunk base protection devices used for forest tending in mountainous areas typically consist of a corrosion-resistant outer shell, an inner lining, securing straps, and ventilation holes. The outer shell wraps around the base of the trunk to prevent damage and pests, while the inner lining cushions the trunk against the shell, reducing friction damage. The securing straps ensure the device is stable, and the ventilation holes allow air to pass through, preventing water accumulation and mold growth. By protecting the base of the trunk and reducing adverse external influences, this device promotes healthy tree growth and enhances the effectiveness of tending.
[0004] In existing technologies, some tree trunk base protection devices used in mountain forest tending lack structures for insect repellency and animal grazing prevention. While these devices can effectively prevent mechanical damage and some environmental impact, they typically lack insect repellency and animal grazing prevention functions. These devices fail to consider the problems of pest and disease infestation and large animal (such as deer and rabbits) grazing on the tree trunk base, making trees vulnerable to pests and animal bites during growth, affecting their health and growth. The lack of sufficient protective measures may lead to long-term damage to trees, inhibiting their normal growth and affecting the overall effectiveness of forest tending. Therefore, this paper proposes a tree trunk base protection device for mountain forest tending to address these problems. Utility Model Content

[0015] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0016] 1. In this utility model, the insect repellent spray structure and the deterrent device structure work together to effectively repel both pests and animals, improving the tree's growth environment and overall care. The insect repellent spray structure releases insect repellent to prevent and reduce pest infestations at the base of the tree, preventing them from multiplying or eroding the trunk, thereby alleviating the tree's growth stress. Simultaneously, the deterrent device structure uses sound waves, flashes, or vibrations to exploit animals' sensitivity to unsettling environments, forcing rodents and large herbivores away from the trunk, thus promoting healthy tree growth.
[0017] 2. In this utility model, the tree trunk is securely clamped by a clamping spring structure, effectively absorbing and dispersing external forces. The bottom ground stakes ensure the stability of the entire protective device, fixing it to the ground and preventing movement and shaking caused by loose soil or strong winds. Through this double-fixing structure, the device can provide sufficient support and stability without damaging the tree's growth, thus effectively preventing the trunk from tilting or being damaged by external forces under severe weather conditions.

A hydraulic pump 10 is fixedly connected to the top of the reagent kit 6, which uses hydraulic energy to press out the reagent inside the reagent kit 6.
[0027] The drive assembly includes a motor 9 that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. The motor 9 is externally fixedly connected to the outside of the reagent kit 6. A delivery drive tube 7 is internally fixedly connected to the motor 9. The delivery drive tube 7 has multiple holes inside and transports the reagents inside the reagent kit 6. The animal repelling mechanism includes sensors 11 that transmit electrical signals. Two sensors 11 are externally fixedly connected to the outer wall of the lower protective ring 4. Sensors 12 are externally fixedly connected to the sensors 11 to sense surrounding animals. A frightener 13 is fixedly connected to the top of the sensors 11 to receive the signals emitted by the sensors 11 and emit a sound to scare away the animals.
[0028] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 4 The fixing mechanism includes a fixing box 14, which fixes the internal structure. The fixing box 14 is externally fixedly connected to the inside of the upper protective ring 5. A spring 15 is fixedly connected inside the fixing box 14, allowing the sliding tube 17 to move back and forth. A fixing post 16 is fixedly connected inside the fixing box 14, fixing the spring 15 to prevent it from shifting. The sliding tube 17 is fixedly connected to the outside of the fixing post 16, controlling the clamp 18 to hold the tree trunk. The clamp 18 is fixedly connected to the outside of the sliding tube 17 to hold the tree trunk. Multiple ground stakes 19 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the upper protective ring 5 to fix the protective device and prevent it from being blown over by the wind.
[0029] Reference Figures 1 to 4 The outer side of the middle protective ring 1 is fixedly connected to multiple middle fixing plates 20, which fix the left and right halves of the middle protective ring 1. The inner side of the two middle fixing plates 20 is fixedly connected to medium-sized nuts 21, which lock the two middle fixing plates 20. The outer side of the lower protective ring 4 is fixedly connected to multiple lower fixing plates 22, which fix the left and right halves of the lower protective ring 4. The inner side of the two lower fixing plates 22 is fixedly connected to large-sized nuts 23, which lock the two lower fixing plates 22.

[0030] Working Principle: First, the device is firmly fixed to the ground using multiple ground stakes 19. Next, the lower fixing plate 22 secures the lower protective ring 4, the upper fixing plate 24 secures the upper protective ring 5, and the middle protective ring 1 is secured by the middle fixing plate 20. Then, the clamps 18 on both sides are manually fixed to the base of the tree trunk. As the clamps 18 gradually secure the tree trunk, the spring 15 inside the fixing box 14 is compressed. The spring 15 connects to the sliding tube 17, which slides backward, gradually releasing the force on the external spring 15. Finally, after the clamps 18 secure the tree trunk, the fixing post 16 and the sliding tube 17 are locked, completing the entire fixing process. Through this series of steps, the device can stably fix the tree trunk, ensuring effective protection for the tree in various environments.
[0031] Repellent Operation: The repellent operation works as follows: After the hydraulic pump 10 is started, the reagent kit 6 is filled with pressure, and the insect repellent is sprayed through multiple holes on the delivery drive tube 7 into the nozzle 8, and evenly sprayed onto the base of the tree trunk. Simultaneously, the motor 9 starts, causing the delivery drive tube 7 to rotate, which in turn rotates the nozzle 8, thereby expanding the spraying area and ensuring that the insect repellent evenly covers the base of the tree trunk. If an animal approaches and attempts to gnaw on the tree trunk, the sensor 12 detects it and sends a signal to the sensor 11. The sensor 11 transmits the signal to the deterrent device 13, which then emits a sound to scare the animal away. Through these steps, the device can effectively repel pests and animals, protecting the trees from harm.
