Detailed Implementation

[0024] 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.

[0025] Please see Figures 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0026] A gardening branch pruning device includes a first handle 1 and scissors 5. A second handle 3 is rotatably mounted above the first handle 1, and a return spring 4 is installed between the second handle 3 and a return spring 4. A telescopic mechanism 2 is provided between the first handle 1 and the scissors 5 for adjusting the pruning distance. The telescopic mechanism 2 includes:

[0027] The adjustment unit 21 is located between the first handle 1 and the scissors 5. It includes an installation tube 211 fixedly installed between the first handle 1 and the scissors 5. The top of the inner cavity of the installation tube 211 is provided with a trapezoidal groove 212. A trapezoidal block 213 is slidably installed inside the trapezoidal groove 212. A telescopic rod 214 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the trapezoidal block 213. The scissors 5 is fixedly installed at one end of the telescopic rod 214. The movement of the scissors 5 is achieved by moving the telescopic rod 214, thereby realizing the adjustment of the trimming distance.

[0028] The positioning unit 22 is located on the rear side of the adjustment unit 21 and is used to limit the movement of the telescopic rod 214;

[0029] Pulling unit 23 is located on the front side of adjustment unit 21 and is used to drive scissors 5 to cut.

[0030] The user squeezes the second handle 3 and the return spring 4, and pulls the scissors 5 through the pulling unit 23 to cut the tree branch.

[0031] In this embodiment, the adjustment unit 21 further includes a rack 215 fixedly installed at the bottom of the telescopic rod 214, and a rotating shaft 216 is rotatably installed inside the mounting tube 211, and a gear 217 is fixedly installed on the surface of the rotating shaft 216, and the gear 217 meshes with the rack 215.

[0032] When the user pulls the scissors 5, the scissors 5 move the telescopic rod 214 and the rack 215. The rack 215 drives the gear 217 to rotate, and the scissors 5 extends outward, thereby adjusting the pruning distance and making it easier to prune branches at height or in the distance.

[0033] In this embodiment, the positioning unit 22 includes a fixing plate 221 fixedly installed on the rear side of the mounting tube 211. A ratchet 225 is rotatably installed on the front side of the fixing plate 221, and the rear end of the rotating shaft 216 passes through the mounting tube 211, the fixing plate 221 and the ratchet 225 are fixedly connected. A fixing seat 222 is fixedly installed on one side of the fixing plate 221, and a pawl 223 is rotatably installed on one side of the fixing plate 221. A return spring 224 is installed between the return spring 224 and the pawl 223, and one end of the pawl 223 is engaged with the ratchet 225.

[0034] When gear 217 rotates, it drives ratchet 225 to rotate via shaft 216. Ratchet 225 drives pawl 223 to separate and engage. When ratchet 225 and pawl 223 are engaged, ratchet 225 is prevented from rotating in the opposite direction, thereby preventing the scissors 5 from returning to their original position.

[0035] In this embodiment, the pulling unit 23 includes a movable rod 233 movably mounted on the scissors 5, and the movable rod 233 has a plurality of threaded holes 232 inside. The pulling unit 23 also includes a connecting rod 231 movably mounted on the second handle 3. One end of the connecting rod 231 is threadedly mounted with a threaded knob 234. The threaded knob 234 is threadedly inserted into the threaded hole 232 to fix the position of the movable rod 233.

[0036] The movable rod 233 slides inside the connecting rod 231, and then the threaded knob 234 is rotated so that one end of the threaded knob 234 enters the interior of the threaded hole 232, thereby fixing the position of the movable rod 233.

[0037] Furthermore, any content not described in detail in this specification is existing technology known to those skilled in the art.

[0038] During operation, the user first pulls the scissors 5, which moves the telescopic rod 214 and rack 215. The rack 215 drives the gear 217 to rotate, and the scissors 5 extends outward to adjust the cutting distance. While the gear 217 is rotating, it drives the ratchet 225 to rotate. The ratchet 225 separates from and engages with the pawl 223. When the scissors 5 is reset, the pawl 223 is moved to separate from the ratchet 225, pushing the scissors 5 to reset.

[0039] Then, during the stretching process of the scissors 5, the moving rod 233 slides inside the connecting rod 231. After that, the threaded knob 234 is rotated so that one end of the threaded knob 234 enters the inside of the threaded hole 232, fixing the position of the moving rod 233. The user squeezes the second handle 3 and the return spring 4, and pulls the scissors 5 to engage in a scissor-like action to cut the tree branch through the pulling unit 23.

[0040] It should be noted that, in this document, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used only to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Furthermore, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus.

[0041] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
