Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a support frame for transplanted mangrove trees. Background Technology

[0002] Mangroves are wetland woody plant communities, mainly composed of evergreen trees or shrubs, growing in the intertidal zone of tropical and subtropical coasts. They play a vital role in purifying seawater, preventing wind and waves, fixing and storing carbon, and maintaining biodiversity. They are also important habitats for rare and endangered waterfowl, and breeding grounds for fish, shrimp, crabs, and shellfish. Mangroves are one of the three pioneer tree species for mangrove afforestation, belonging to viviparous trees, and are suitable for planting in estuaries and mudflats. Current mangrove protection measures mainly include in-situ conservation and ex-situ conservation. To maximize the protection of mangrove resources, mangrove plants in some areas affected by human construction (such as the construction of cross-sea bridges) need to be transplanted for protection.

[0003] Currently, during the transplantation of large mangrove trees, after the transplanted trees are transported to the planting site and planted, they are typically secured horizontally with 3 to 5 bamboo poles. However, the inventors discovered during transplantation practice that, due to the advanced age of some mangrove trees, the bamboo poles are not very effective at securing them, offering poor resistance to wind and waves and lacking rot prevention, thus affecting subsequent management and transplant survival rates. Furthermore, tree support frames used in terrestrial landscaping are unsuitable for use on tidal flats. Therefore, to address the shortcomings of existing technologies, a new mangrove transplantation trunk support frame was developed. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a mangrove transplant trunk support frame.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A mangrove transplant trunk support frame includes an anti-migration base plate, one end of which is inserted into the mudflat, and the other end is laid flat along the surface of the mudflat; at least three anti-migration base plates are distributed at intervals along the circumference of the mangrove transplant trunk; and a buffer support part, on which a buffer support part is installed, one end of which is inclinedly installed on the anti-migration base plate, and the other end is sleeved on the mangrove transplant trunk; wherein the buffer support part can elastically adjust the force of compression on the mangrove transplant trunk.

[0007] Furthermore, the buffer support includes an arc-shaped support plate with a buffer pad; a support plate mounted on the anti-slip base plate, with threaded sleeves and fixing nuts spaced apart and aligned on one side; a support rod, one end of which is connected to the arc-shaped support plate, and the other end of which is rotatably connected to one side of the support plate via a pivot; a limiting rod, which is vertically offset from the pivot and mounted on the support plate to limit the angle at which the support rod swings outward relative to the mangrove transplanted tree trunk; a screw, one end of which has a fixing nut and a threaded sleeve extending outward, and the other end of which has a handle; and a spring, one end of which is suspended from the support rod, and the other end of which is rotatably engaged with the screw.

[0008] Furthermore, the mangrove transplant trunk support frame of this utility model also includes a limiting disc and a first ring. Two limiting discs are spaced apart and parallel to each other on the screw, and a limiting groove is formed between the two limiting discs. The first ring is sleeved on the screw and placed in the limiting groove for connection with the spring.

[0009] Furthermore, the mangrove transplant trunk support frame of this utility model also includes an adjusting rod. Multiple adjusting rods are installed in parallel at intervals along the length of the support rod, and the adjusting rods are used to support the suspension spring.

[0010] Furthermore, the adjusting rod includes a suspension rod and a stop cap. One end of the suspension rod is connected to a support rod, and the other end is connected to the stop cap. The stop cap prevents the spring from disengaging from the suspension rod.

[0011] Furthermore, the mangrove transplant trunk support frame of this utility model also includes a locking nut, on which the locking nut is sleeved, and the locking nut is located between the fixing nut and the handle; tightening the locking nut prevents the screw from loosening.

[0012] Furthermore, the mangrove transplant trunk support frame of this utility model also includes reinforcing ribs, and at least one reinforcing rib is installed on the bottom side of the support plate.

[0013] Furthermore, the anti-displacement substrate includes a support plate and an insert plate, which are cross-connected.

[0014] Furthermore, the mangrove transplant trunk support frame of this utility model also includes long nails, and the support plate has at least one through hole, with a long nail passing through each through hole.

[0015] Furthermore, the insert plate is an arc-shaped plate.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0017] This invention effectively supports transplanted mangroves, ensuring their stable placement at the planting site. The anti-migration base plate, inserted into the mudflat, increases the contact area with the mudflat silt, thereby increasing the resistance of the mudflat silt to the movement of the anti-migration base plate. This facilitates stable support and buffering, which in turn stably supports the transplanted mangrove trunk, ensuring the mangroves are firmly planted and preventing them from falling over.

Detailed Implementation

[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0027] Example 1:

[0028] like Figure 1-5 As shown, this embodiment of a mangrove transplant trunk support frame includes an anti-migration base plate 1 and a buffer support part 4. One end of the anti-migration base plate 1 is inserted into the mudflat, and the other end is laid flat along the surface of the mudflat; and at least three anti-migration base plates 1 are distributed at intervals along the circumference of the mangrove transplant trunk; each anti-migration base plate 1 is equipped with a buffer support part 4, one end of the buffer support part 4 is installed obliquely on the anti-migration base plate 1, and the other end is sleeved on the mangrove transplant trunk; wherein, the buffer support part 4 can elastically adjust the force of squeezing the mangrove transplant trunk.

[0029] The number of anti-migration base plates can be 3, 4, 5, or 6, etc. Understandably, the number of buffer support units installed is equal to the number of anti-migration base plates. Inserting the anti-migration base plates into the mudflats increases the contact area with the mudflats compared to existing bamboo poles, thus increasing the resistance to movement of the anti-migration base plates in the mudflats and providing a stable support foundation for the buffer support units.

[0030] The buffer support and the trunk are connected by an elastically adjustable compressive force, ensuring that the buffer support and the trunk remain in contact. When transplanted mangroves are exposed to sea breezes, the mangrove trunk pushes the buffer support to sway elastically. After the sea breeze weakens, the buffer support can elastically push the trunk back to its original position.

[0031] Work style:

[0032] Multiple anti-migration base plates and buffer support parts installed on them are distributed in a circle around the transplanted mangrove trunk. The multiple buffer support parts support the mangrove trunk together, and each buffer support part is elastically adjusted so that the buffer support part is fixedly supported on the trunk. One end of the anti-migration base plate is inserted into the mudflat. When the anti-migration base plate moves, it is blocked by the mudflat silt, which helps to provide stable support for the buffer support part.

[0033] One structure for the buffer support is given. For example... Figure 1-4As shown, the buffer support part 4 includes an arc-shaped support plate 42, a support plate 46, a support rod 416, a limiting rod 47, a screw 49, and a spring 44. The arc-shaped support plate 42 is provided with a buffer pad 41; the support plate 46 is installed on the anti-slip base plate 1, and a threaded sleeve 412 and a fixing nut 411 are installed at intervals on one side; one end of the support rod 416 is connected to the arc-shaped support plate 42, and the other end is rotatably connected to one side of the support plate 46 through a rotating shaft 45; the limiting rod 47 is installed on the support plate 46 vertically offset from the rotating shaft 45, and is used to limit the angle of outward swing of the support rod 416 relative to the mangrove transplanted tree trunk; one end of the screw 49 is provided with a fixing nut 411 and the threaded sleeve 412 extending outward, and the other end is provided with a handle 48; one end of the spring 44 is suspended from the support rod 416, and the other end is rotatably engaged with the screw 49.

[0034] Understandably, the screw, threaded sleeve 412, and fixing nut 411 are all threaded connections.

[0035] One possible positional relationship between the limiting rod and the rotating shaft is that the limiting rod 47 is located below the rotating shaft 45 and is mounted on the support plate offset from the rotating shaft.

[0036] Another positional relationship between the limiting rod and the rotating shaft is that the limiting rod 47 is located above the rotating shaft 45 and is mounted on the support plate offset from the rotating shaft.

[0037] The limiting rod restricts the maximum outward swing of the support rod relative to the mangrove trunk, allowing the support rod to support the arc-shaped support plate in contact with the trunk.

[0038] The support rod 416 is inclined towards the mangrove trunk for support. When the screw 49 is turned closer to the mangrove trunk, it pulls the spring 44, causing the spring 44 to stretch. The spring 44 then pulls the support rod 416, which in turn causes the arc-shaped support plate 42 and the buffer pad 41 to adhere to the trunk. Once the support rod is firmly supported on the trunk, turning the screw can be stopped. In other words, when the screw is turned away from the trunk, the pulling force of the spring is reduced, thus reducing the pulling force of the spring on the support rod, and decreasing the squeezing force of the arc-shaped support plate on the trunk.

[0039] It should be noted that, depending on the different diameters of the transplanted mangrove trunks, prefabricated curved support plates of corresponding specifications are used. This allows each specification of curved support plate to be matched to the diameter of a particular mangrove trunk.

[0040] The cushioning pad 41 can be made of soft rubber. It allows the curved support plate to be connected to the tree trunk, achieving a flexible connection between the curved support plate and the tree trunk, and preventing the curved support plate from damaging the tree trunk.

[0041] How the buffer support works:

[0042] The support rod 416 is swung toward the transplanted mangrove trunk, causing the arc-shaped support plate and the buffer pad to adhere to the trunk 5. The screw 49 is turned by the handle 48, and the screw 49 is screwed into the threaded sleeve 412. As it extends toward the mangrove trunk, it causes the spring 44 to move and stretch. The elastic deformation of the spring 44 increases, the pulling force of the spring on the support rod increases, and the force of the support rod pressing against the arc-shaped support plate increases. The arc-shaped support plate presses against the buffer pad, and the buffer pad adheres more tightly to the trunk, so that the support rod, the arc-shaped support plate and the buffer pad can effectively support the trunk.

[0043] Multiple buffer supports are installed at intervals along the circumference of the tree trunk. This means that multiple support rods work together to effectively support the transplanted mangrove trunk, ensuring its stable planting. This effectively prevents the transplanted mangrove trees from being blown over by sea winds.

[0044] It should be noted that when the sea breeze blows the mangrove forest towards the buffer support in a certain direction, the arc-shaped support plate on the buffer support pushes the support rod to swing outward. The support rod pulls the spring and undergoes further elastic deformation. Meanwhile, the support rods in other directions are pulled by their respective connected springs, and the support rods push the arc-shaped support plate to stick to the tree trunk. When the sea breeze stops blowing, the swinging support rods are pulled by the elastic springs connected to them, and the support rods push the arc-shaped support plate in the opposite direction. The arc-shaped support plate then pushes the buffer pad and the tree trunk to swing back to their original position.

[0045] The support rod is connected to the screw via a spring, which not only facilitates the adjustment of the support rod to press the arc-shaped support plate and buffer pad tightly against the tree trunk, but also provides a buffering effect when the tree trunk swings, preventing the tree trunk from making hard contact with the buffer support, thus preventing the tree trunk from breaking when blown by the sea breeze.

[0046] Understandably, the limit rod also restricts the swing range of the support rod and protects the spring, preventing the support rod from pulling the spring and causing plastic deformation.

[0047] In some alternative embodiments, a rotating engagement connection structure for processing the spring and the screw is provided by adding a limiting disc 413 and a first ring 417. Two limiting discs 413 are spaced apart and sleeved in parallel on the screw 49, forming a limiting groove 415 between the two limiting discs 413. The first ring 417 is sleeved on the screw 49 and placed in the limiting groove 415 for connection with the spring 44.

[0048] Two limiting discs 413 confine the first ring 417 within the limiting groove 415. When the screw is turned, the screw extends or contracts, causing the two limiting discs to move the first ring. The first ring then moves one end of the screw connected to it, thereby changing the elastic deformation of the spring. Understandably, the first ring does not obstruct the rotation of the screw.

[0049] In some alternative embodiments, a structure is provided that allows for adjustment of the connection position between the spring and the support rod, with the addition of an adjusting rod 43. Multiple adjusting rods 43 are spaced apart and parallel along the length of the support rod 416, and the adjusting rods 43 support the suspension spring 44.

[0050] The number of adjusting rods 43 can be 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6. Springs can be suspended from the corresponding adjusting rods as needed.

[0051] In some alternative embodiments, one structure of the adjusting rod is provided. The adjusting rod 43 includes a suspension rod 431 and a stop cap 432. One end of the suspension rod 431 is connected to a support rod 416, and the other end is connected to the stop cap 432, which prevents the spring 44 from disengaging from the suspension rod 431.

[0052] To facilitate the suspension of the spring 44 on the adjusting rod, a second ring 418 is added. The spring 44 is suspended from the suspension rod 431 through the second ring 418, and the stop cap 432 can prevent the second ring 418 from detaching from the suspension rod 431.

[0053] In some alternative embodiments, a locking nut 410 is added to further tighten the screw. The locking nut 410 is fitted onto the screw 49 and is located between the fixing nut 411 and the handle 48; tightening the locking nut 410 prevents the screw 49 from loosening.

[0054] When using, turn the screw to the desired position, then tighten the locking nut. The locking nut will be tightly against the fixing nut, thus locking the screw and preventing it from loosening.

[0055] Understandably, when it is necessary to tighten the screw, the lock nut can be loosened first. The lock nut can then be moved toward the handle.

[0056] In some alternative embodiments, reinforcing ribs 414 are added to enhance the load-bearing capacity of the support plate. At least one reinforcing rib 414 is installed on the bottom side of the support plate 46.

[0057] The support plate is equipped with reinforcing ribs on one or both sides, and the number of reinforcing ribs can be one, two, or three. The reinforcing ribs can enhance the load-bearing capacity of the support plate.

[0058] In some alternative embodiments, one structure of the anti-displacement substrate is provided. The anti-displacement substrate 1 includes a support plate 101 and an insert plate 102, which are cross-connected.

[0059] It should be noted that the height of the insertion plate can be determined based on the depth of the hard mud layer detected at the transplanting site.

[0060] One possible shape for the insert plate is: insert plate 102 is an arc-shaped plate.

[0061] In use, the insert plate is inserted into the mudflat, while the support plate is attached to the surface of the mudflat. The support plate is used to support the installation of the buffer support.

[0062] When the insert plate is inserted into the mudflat, it is covered by the mud. When the insert plate is subjected to external force, the mud can prevent the insert plate from moving, thus the insert plate can support the support plate and stabilize it on the mudflat surface.

[0063] In some optional embodiments, elongated nails 2 are added to further secure the anti-shifting substrate. At least one through-hole 3 is provided on the support plate 101, and each through-hole 3 passes through one elongated nail 2.

[0064] The tray can have 1, 2, 3, or 4 through holes. A long nail (2) penetrates the through hole (3) and is inserted into the hard mud layer at the bottom of the mudflat. The long nail helps to fix the tray, ensuring it is stably placed on the mudflat surface.

[0065] The above-described embodiments are preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are only used to facilitate the illustration of the present utility model. They are not intended to limit the present utility model in any way. Any person skilled in the art who makes partial modifications or alterations to the technical content disclosed in the present utility model without departing from the scope of the technical features of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the technical features of the present utility model.
