Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of Codonopsis pilosula cultivation technology, specifically a planting frame for preventing Codonopsis pilosula stems and vines from entanglement. Background Technology

[0002] Codonopsis pilosula (Franch.) Nannf., belonging to the genus Codonopsis in the family Campanulaceae, is a perennial twining herbaceous plant containing latex. Its stem base has numerous tuberculate stem scars, and its roots are often enlarged and spindle-shaped or spindle-cylindrical. During its growth, when the above-ground parts of the plant reach 15-20cm in height, the stems begin to twine. Without support, the stems often creep along the ground and intertwine, eventually covering the ground completely. This creates a dark, damp, and enclosed environment below, making it susceptible to pests and diseases. The intertwined stems also reduce photosynthesis, affecting the accumulation of effective components in the roots, and further hinder normal growth. Furthermore, Codonopsis is primarily cross-pollinated, and its seed setting rate is affected by external environmental factors such as weather, habitat, wind, and insects. The twining stems result in poor pollination and reduced seed yield. In the traditional cultivation of Codonopsis pilosula, if trellises are erected manually, it will increase production costs. Therefore, farmers often give up trellises and let the Codonopsis pilosula grow freely, which ultimately leads to a decline in the quality of Codonopsis pilosula.

[0003] Existing technology CN 206101068 U discloses a scaffolding device for planting Codonopsis pilosula; it includes uprights, pull ropes, and multiple fishing lines set on the pull ropes. The uprights include rope-collecting uprights and supporting uprights; both the rope-collecting uprights and the supporting uprights include a pole body and a soil-penetrating spike, wherein the upper part of the pole body of the rope-collecting upright is provided with a rope-collecting roller for storing the pull ropes and can rotate circumferentially relative to the rope-collecting upright; the pull ropes are plastic-coated steel wire ropes or stainless steel wire ropes, one end of which is fixedly connected to the rope-collecting roller, and the other end is detachably connected to the supporting uprights; the fishing lines are PP binding ropes, which are spaced apart on the pull ropes. This utility model has a simple structure, facilitates the rapid construction, dismantling, and transportation of the scaffolding, is easy to store, and can be reused.

[0004] Although the aforementioned technical solutions have improved the trellis system for Codonopsis pilosula cultivation, providing a vertical trellis to prevent the vines from creeping on the ground, the vines are still slender and flexible. Even with the vines planted vertically, the quality and seed yield of Codonopsis pilosula still cannot be improved by addressing the problems of pests and physiological diseases caused by entanglement, depending on the planting density. Utility Model Content

[0005] (a) Technical problems to be solved

[0006] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a Codonopsis pilosula stem and vine anti-tangle planting frame, which has the advantages of preventing the stems and vines of multiple Codonopsis pilosula plants from intertwining and can regularly prune the stems and vines to prevent them from affecting other plants due to excessive length, thus solving the aforementioned technical problems.

[0007] Technical solution

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a planting frame for preventing the vines of Codonopsis pilosula from entanglement. The planting frame includes an inner fixing frame and an outer fixing frame. The bottom of both frames is connected to a rod inserted into the ground for fixing themselves. The inner fixing frame is located inside the outer fixing frame, and there is a gap between the two frames to form a receiving groove for the growth of the Codonopsis pilosula vines. Multiple openings penetrating the surface of both the inner and outer fixing frames are provided for the Codonopsis pilosula to photosynthesize. Multiple protrusions for the Codonopsis pilosula vines to climb are installed on the side of the multiple openings near the receiving groove of the inner fixing frame.

[0009] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the top surface of the outer fixing frame begins to penetrate through the insertion hole at its top, the inner side of the insertion hole penetrates through the vertical rod, and the bottom of the vertical rod is fixedly connected to the top surface of the inner fixing frame by a threaded connection.

[0010] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, at least two sliding grooves are opened around the upper and lower ends of the outer surface of the outer fixing frame, and sliding blocks are slidably connected inside the sliding grooves. At least two sliding blocks are fixedly connected to the side wall of the scraper, and the scraper is parallel to the outer surface of the outer fixing frame.

[0011] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the scraper blade is installed on the side close to the outer surface of the outer fixing frame, and the scraper blade is inclined to the side of the outer fixing frame, with the angle of inclination of the scraper blade to the side of the outer fixing frame being 25 degrees to 45 degrees.

[0012] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the protrusion is a rod that is fixedly installed on the side wall of the inner fixing frame near the receiving groove, and the rod and the inner fixing frame are both made of rigid plastic.

[0013] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the protrusion includes a nut, the inner side of which is threaded and one side is fixedly installed on the inner fixing frame near the receiving groove side wall. The inner side of the nut is threadedly connected to a screw rod, which is relatively perpendicular to the inner fixing frame near the receiving groove side wall. The nut and the screw rod are threadedly connected to form the protrusion.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a planting frame for preventing the vines of Codonopsis pilosula from tangling, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. This utility model first covers the Codonopsis pilosula seedling at the center of the bottom of the inner fixing frame with its bottom facing down. At this time, the plug installed at the bottom of the inner fixing frame will be inserted into the bottom surface for fixation. Then, the outer fixing frame is continued to be connected to the outer surface of the inner fixing frame. Since the inner diameter of the outer fixing frame is larger than the outer diameter of the inner fixing frame, there is a gap between the two. The receiving groove formed by the gap is used for the subsequent growth of the Codonopsis pilosula seedling's stems and vines to twine around. By opening the surfaces of the inner and outer fixing frames, the openings penetrate through both to form a transparent channel, which not only allows sunlight to shine but also does not block the irrigation of medicine and water. The further penetrating openings also allow the growing Codonopsis pilosula stems and vines to pass through, allowing them to grow from the inside of the inner fixing frame outward to the receiving groove, and climb up the multiple protrusions to cover the entire receiving groove. Since the growth of Codonopsis pilosula from seedling to stems and vines is completed inside the outer fixing frame, it will not grow outward and entangle with other Codonopsis pilosula stems and vines to form clustered vines that cause pests. This achieves the beneficial effect of avoiding the intertwining of stems and vines between multiple Codonopsis pilosula plants.

[0016] 2. This utility model allows the scraper to move around the outer surface of the outer fixing frame by fixing the two ends of the scraper to the slider. Since the Codonopsis pilosula stems grow randomly in the early stage of production, there is a possibility that the stems may grow from the bottom of the receiving groove to the outside of the outer fixing frame. Therefore, by moving the scraper around the outer fixing frame, the blade of the scraper will contact the tender buds of the Codonopsis pilosula stems and cut them off. This achieves the beneficial effect of regularly pruning the Codonopsis pilosula stems and preventing the excessively long stems from affecting other plants. Attached Figure Description

[0022] The embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model.

[0023] In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more; the terms "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "inner," "outer," "front end," "rear end," "head," "tail," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model. In addition, the terms "first," "second," "third," etc., are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0024] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "connected" and "linked" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0025] Example 1

[0026] Please see Figure 1-4 A planting frame for preventing the vines of Codonopsis pilosula from entanglement. The planting frame includes an inner fixing frame 1 and an outer fixing frame 2. The bottom of both frames is connected to a rod inserted into the ground for fixing. The inner fixing frame 1 is located inside the outer fixing frame 2. There is a gap between the two frames to form a receiving groove 3 for the growth of the Codonopsis pilosula vines. Multiple openings 4 penetrating the surface of both the inner fixing frame 1 and the outer fixing frame 2 are provided for the photosynthesis of Codonopsis pilosula. Multiple protrusions 5 for the Codonopsis pilosula vines to climb are installed on the side of the inner fixing frame 1 near the receiving groove 3, on the side of the multiple openings 4.

[0027] Furthermore, by first covering the Codonopsis pilosula seedling with the bottom center of the inner fixing frame 1 facing down, the insertion rod installed at the bottom of the inner fixing frame 1 will be inserted into the bottom surface for fixation. Then, the outer fixing frame 2 is continued to be fitted onto the outer surface of the inner fixing frame 1. Since the inner diameter of the outer fixing frame 2 is larger than the outer diameter of the inner fixing frame 1, there is a gap between the two. The receiving groove 3 formed by the gap is used for the subsequent stem vine winding of the Codonopsis pilosula seedling.

[0028] Furthermore, by opening 4 on the surfaces of the inner fixing frame 1 and the outer fixing frame 2, the openings penetrate both to form a transparent channel, which not only allows sunlight to reach the plant but also does not obstruct the irrigation of medicine and water. The further penetrating opening 4 also allows the growing Codonopsis pilosula stems and vines to pass through, enabling them to grow from the inside of the inner fixing frame 1 outward to the receiving trough 3, and climb along the multiple protrusions 5 to cover the entire receiving trough 3. Since the growth of Codonopsis pilosula from seedling to stems and vines is completed inside the outer fixing frame 2, it will not grow outward and entangle with other Codonopsis pilosula stems and vines to form clustered vines that could lead to pest infestation.

[0029] Furthermore, by fixing the two ends of the scraper 6 to the slider 204, the scraper 6 can move around the outer surface of the outer fixing frame 2. Since the Codonopsis pilosula stems and vines grow randomly in the early stage of production, there is a possibility that the stems and vines may grow outward from the bottom of the receiving groove 3 to the outside of the outer fixing frame 2. Therefore, by moving the scraper 6 around the outer fixing frame 2, the blade of the scraper 6 will contact the tender buds of the Codonopsis pilosula stems and vines and cut them off, thus avoiding excessive growth. Furthermore, cutting off the Codonopsis pilosula stems and vines will not affect their growth. The benefits of pruning Codonopsis pilosula stems and vines are disclosed in the article "The Effects of Artificial Pruning on the Yield, Quality and Seed Yield of Codonopsis pilosula" by Chen Yuwu, Wei He and Jin Hongyu in the Chinese Journal of Experimental Traditional Medical Formulae.

[0030] Example 2

[0031] By integrating the nut 8 with the inner fixing frame 1, the screw 801 can be rotated and tightened to the inside of the nut 8 when needed, forming a protrusion. This ensures that the protrusion 5 can be quantitatively set according to the growth state of Codonopsis pilosula, reducing unnecessary waste. Both the nut 8 and the inner fixing frame 1 are made of rigid plastic through die casting. Since existing materials are used for preparation, this application does not align with the formula improvement, and therefore does not fall under the category of non-protected subject matter as stipulated by the Patent Law.

[0032] In use, the inner fixing frame 1 is first placed with its bottom facing down, covering the center of the Codonopsis pilosula seedling. The insert rod installed at the bottom of the inner fixing frame 1 will then be inserted into the bottom surface for fixation. Then, the outer fixing frame 2 is attached to the outer surface of the inner fixing frame 1. Since the inner diameter of the outer fixing frame 2 is larger than the outer diameter of the inner fixing frame 1, there is a gap between the two. The receiving groove 3 formed by the gap is used for the subsequent growth of the Codonopsis pilosula seedling's stems and vines to twine around. Openings 4 are made on the surfaces of the inner fixing frame 1 and the outer fixing frame 2, forming a transparent channel that allows sunlight to penetrate without obstructing the flow of medicine and water. The further penetrating openings 4 also allow the growing Codonopsis pilosula stems and vines to pass through, allowing them to grow from the inside of the inner fixing frame 1 outward to the receiving groove 3 and climb up the multiple protrusions 5 to cover the entire receiving groove 3. Since the growth of Codonopsis pilosula from seedling to stems and vines is completed inside the outer fixing frame 2, it will not grow outward and entangle with other Codonopsis pilosula stems and vines to form clumps that could lead to pests.

[0033] 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.
