Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of tree pruning tools, specifically a portable tree pruning tool. Background Technology

[0002] Trees are an important part of landscaping and need to be pruned regularly. Tree pruning tools are required during the pruning process. However, in actual use, the applicant found that the tool, which uses hooks at the front of the cutting body to prune distant branches, does not effectively extend the pruning tool by adding this pruning structure. Therefore, it is still inconvenient for people to prune branches that are a little further away.

[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, a search revealed an existing patent (application number: CN202322094007.1) for a tree pruning tool. The patent describes a tool comprising a handle and an extension rod. A cutting body is fixedly connected to the front end of the handle, and a connecting seat is rotatably connected to the rear end of the handle via a pivot. A gear is located on the front side of the connecting seat. This invention, by providing a connecting seat on the rear side of the handle and equipping it with an extension rod, allows the tree pruning tool to be extended by screwing the front end of the extension rod onto the connecting seat. This facilitates pruning of distant branches. Rotating the screw moves the rack, causing the connecting seat to rotate around the pivot, allowing for flexible adjustment of the angle between the extension rod and the cutting body as needed. Furthermore, by unscrewing the fixing bolt from the handle, the connecting block can be removed from the connecting groove, allowing for individual replacement of damaged cutting bodies without discarding the entire pruning tool, thus reducing waste.

[0004] However, during use, if trees at a height are to be continuously pruned, the staff needs to keep lifting the cutting body and pulling it to cut. Without a corresponding support structure to support the cutting body, the staff will experience arm pain and waste physical strength during the process of lifting and cutting, which will cause damage to their health and affect the efficiency of subsequent tree pruning.
