[0036] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0037] like Figure 1-5As shown, a root control canal for easy post-transplant maintenance includes a main tube 1 (diameter of 12-15cm) and lateral tubes 2 (diameter of 6-8cm) connected to the main tube 1. The number of lateral tubes 2 is not less than three, and the included angle between them is not less than 45°-55°.

[0038] Multiple perforations arranged in a matrix are provided on the side wall of the side wing tube 2 to form the filter cover 3;

[0039] The filter cover 3 is covered with non-woven fabric 4.

[0040] Specifically, the root canal in the above embodiments is a polyethylene plastic tube or a PVC plastic tube, or other conventional plastic or modified plastic parts.

[0041] The non-woven fabric 4 is bonded to the filter cover 3 by applying glue to one side edge. The glue used is a known industrial glue, and details will not be disclosed.

[0042] In the above technology, during construction, the side wing pipe 2 is placed below and in contact with the soil ball of the tree, while the non-woven fabric 4 is attached to the surface of the soil ball, thus preventing soil from entering the side wing pipe 2. Excess water in the soil is absorbed by the non-woven fabric 4 and seeps into the side wing pipe 2 before entering the main pipe 1 for drainage. This increases ventilation while also preventing root suffocation caused by excessive soil moisture in the tree roots.

[0043] As a further embodiment of this utility model, combined with Figure 1 As can be seen, the side wing pipe 2 is divided into a horizontal pipe 21 and a bend pipe 22 according to its structure, and the bend pipe 22 is fixedly connected to the main pipe 1. It should be noted that the end of the horizontal pipe 21 that is connected to the bend pipe 22 is a closed end.

[0044] Specifically, when water seeps into the horizontal pipe 21, it flows toward the curved pipe 22 as it accumulates and enters the main pipe 1, thereby draining away the excess water from the soil clod.

[0045] As another embodiment further provided by this utility model, combined with Figure 1 It can be seen that the main pipe 1 is divided into pre-embedded pipe 11 and elbow pipe 12 according to its function, and the side wing pipe 2 is located in the pre-embedded pipe 11 and is distributed at one-half of the position.

[0046] Specifically, in this embodiment, the elbow pipe 12 is exposed on the outside of the covering soil to connect with the outside environment, thereby ensuring airflow inside the root canal. Secondly, the elbow pipe 12 is an arc-shaped bend, not a straight pipe, which also prevents rainwater from directly entering during rain. Furthermore, combined with... Figure 3 As shown, the port of elbow pipe 12 is higher than the road surface, so water from the road surface will not flow into elbow pipe 12.

[0047] As another embodiment further provided by this utility model, combined with Figure 4 It can be seen that the main pipe 1 also includes an inclined pipe 13 connected to the elbow pipe 12, and a filter screen frame 5 is provided inside the inclined pipe 13;

[0048] The filter frame 5 includes a first assembly, which includes a ring 51. Multiple diagonal bars 52 arranged in a circular array are fixedly installed on one end face of the ring 51.

[0049] The number of first assembly parts is two, and the multiple diagonal bars 52 on the two first assembly parts correspond one-to-one, and the ends are connected together to form a binding area 100;

[0050] The circumferential radius of the constriction region 100 is smaller than the circumferential radius of the ring 51.

[0051] Specifically, in this embodiment, pipe adhesive is applied to the outer wall of the ring 51, and then the filter frame 5 is placed into the inclined tube 13 until the ring 51 on one of the first assembly parts can no longer slide due to the restriction of the inner wall of the elbow tube 12. After the adhesive has solidified, the process is complete.

[0052] Furthermore, the binding area 100 in the above embodiments is as follows: Figure 5 As shown. The purpose of the constriction area 100 is to prevent fallen leaves or small organisms from entering the horizontal tube 21.

[0053] As another embodiment further provided by this utility model, combined with Figure 4 It can be seen that each of the inclined rods 52 on a first assembly near the elbow pipe 12 is fixedly provided with an irregular rod 6 that passes through the constriction area 100 and extends to the outside of the ring body 51 on another first assembly.

[0054] The irregularly shaped rod 6 is structurally divided into an inclined section 61, a vertical section 62, and a V-shaped section 63, wherein:

[0055] The inclined part 61 is integrated with the side wall of the inclined rod 52, and its ends are distributed near the bend 22;

[0056] One end of the vertical part 62 is connected to the end of the inclined part 61, while the other end is connected to one end of the V-shaped part 63;

[0057] The top corner of the V-shaped part 63 is rounded, and the outer arc top of the rounded corner is on the same horizontal plane as the inner wall of the ring 51.

[0058] The V-shaped part 63 and the ring body 51 maintain a predetermined distance of 2-5 mm.

[0059] Specifically, this embodiment adds an irregularly shaped rod 6 to the first assembly, and this irregularly shaped rod 6 is the second assembly. Combined with... Figure 5 As can be seen, in the embodiment, the inclined portion 61 is located at half the length of the inclined rod 52, and the sidewalls of the vertical portions 62 of the multiple irregular rods 6 are in contact with each other. The vertical portions 62 are located in the constriction area 100, and a predetermined distance is maintained between the vertical portions 62 and the inner wall of the constriction area 100, and the distance is 2-3 mm.

[0060] Furthermore, in the above embodiment, the V-shaped portion 63 is entirely located within a first combined portion near the port of the inclined tube 13, and the rounded corners of the entire V-shaped portion 63 are located on the outside of the first combined portion. The purpose is to optimize the original blocking design, and the multiple V-shaped portions 63 are combined to form a gem-like structure, thereby further achieving the interception of fallen leaves or small external organisms.

[0061] The foregoing description only illustrates certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention. Undoubtedly, those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
