Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of aquatic plant cultivation devices, specifically a pruning mechanism for aquatic plants. Background Technology

[0002] Plants that can grow in water are collectively called aquatic plants. Based on their lifestyle, aquatic plants are generally divided into the following categories: emergent plants (such as lotus and reeds), floating-leaved plants (such as water lilies and water hyacinths), submerged plants (such as hornwort and eelgrass), floating plants, and wetland plants (such as canna lilies and pickerelweed).

[0003] Pruning can control the growth rate and density of aquatic plants, preventing them from overgrowing and disrupting the ecological balance of the surrounding environment. For example, if emergent plants such as reeds grow too vigorously, they can obstruct the view, hinder water flow, and even cause wetlands to lose their ecological stability.

[0004] In existing technologies, pruning aquatic plants typically involves workers using hand-held pruning shears. This method can be tiring for workers after prolonged periods, impacting work efficiency. Furthermore, the weight of the pruning shears makes them difficult to maintain stability, causing significant inconvenience. Therefore, this paper proposes a pruning mechanism for aquatic plants to address these issues. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a pruning mechanism for aquatic plants, which has the advantages of being more stable and labor-saving during the pruning process, and solves the problem that workers are prone to fatigue and damage to the pruned parts during long-term pruning in existing technologies.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a pruning mechanism for aquatic plants, comprising an operating rod, wherein the operating rod is provided with a handle for easy gripping by the operator, and a connector for easy connection of the operating rod is provided on the handle; one end of the operating rod is provided with a connector for connection, and the other end is provided with a floating component for easy pruning of aquatic plants.

[0007] The floating assembly includes a connecting platform for connecting the operating rod, a mounting plate for installation is connected to the connecting platform, and an airbag is provided at the bottom of the mounting plate for providing support to the mounting plate while floating on the water.

[0008] The mounting plate is also provided with a vertical support member on the top for support. A horizontal support member is connected to one side of the vertical support member, and a trimming head for trimming aquatic plants is connected to the other end of the horizontal support member.

[0009] Furthermore, the airbag is provided with a first connecting tube, the other end of which is connected to a vertical support member, and the first connecting tube is provided with a first control valve for controlling the airflow interruption.

[0010] Furthermore, the airbag is also provided with a second connecting tube, the other end of which is connected to the transverse support member, and the second connecting tube is also provided with a second control valve for controlling the airflow interruption.

[0011] Furthermore, both the vertical support and the horizontal support are composed of multiple slidably connected sealing tubes, the sealing tubes having a hollow internal structure and maintaining communication with the first connecting tube and the second connecting tube.

[0012] Furthermore, the trimming head comprises a rotary motor for transmission and a cutting blade, and the transmission connection is fixedly installed on the transverse support.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this application has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] I. This aquatic plant pruning mechanism, equipped with a mounting plate and airbags, allows it to float on the water surface, thus supporting the pruning head. This method ensures that operators do not experience fatigue when pruning aquatic plants by holding the operating rod to control the floating component for extended periods. The buoyancy counteracts the overall weight of the operating rod and floating component, making it more lightweight. Furthermore, the airbags and mounting plate ensure stable movement on the water surface, further improving the pruning effect on aquatic plants.

[0015] II. This pruning mechanism for aquatic plants uses a first control valve to introduce gas from the airbag into the vertical support member, thereby adjusting the height of the vertical support member. After the height of the vertical support member is adjusted, it can drive the horizontal support member, thus adjusting the height of the pruning head. This ensures that it can adapt to aquatic plants of different heights during use. The second control valve introduces gas from the airbag into the horizontal support member, thereby adjusting the length of the horizontal support member. This allows the horizontal support member to extend the pruning head, giving it a larger pruning range and ensuring that it can meet the pruning needs of different areas during use.

[0020] 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.

[0021] A pruning mechanism for aquatic plants includes an operating rod 1, a handle 11 for easy gripping by the operator, a connector 12 for connecting the operating rod 1, a connector 13 for connection at one end of the operating rod 1, and a floating assembly 2 for pruning aquatic plants at the other end. The floating assembly 2 includes a connecting platform 201 for connecting the operating rod 1, a mounting plate 202 for installation connected to the connecting platform 201, an airbag 203 for floating on water to provide support for the mounting plate 202 at the bottom, and a vertical support member 204 for support at the top of the mounting plate 202. A horizontal support member 205 is connected to one side of the vertical support member 204, and a pruning head 206 for pruning aquatic plants is connected to the other end of the horizontal support member 205. In actual use, when staff need to trim aquatic plants, they can first place the airbag 203 in the water. This airbag 203 can float on the water surface, thus providing an upward buoyancy effect for the mounting plate 202, which can support the mounting plate 202. At this time, the staff can hold the handle 11 to drive the operating rod 1 to move the mounting plate 202 on the water surface. During the movement, the trimming head 206 can be activated to achieve the effect of trimming aquatic plants.

[0022] The technical effects of the above embodiments are as follows: by setting the mounting plate 202 and the airbag 203, it can float on the water surface, thereby supporting the trimming head 206. This method can ensure that the staff can avoid fatigue when holding the operating rod 1 to control the floating component 2 for a long time during the trimming of aquatic plants. The buoyancy offsets the overall weight of the operating rod 1 and the floating component 2, making it lighter. Furthermore, under the support of the airbag 203 and the mounting plate 202, it can be more stable when moving on the water surface, further improving the trimming effect of aquatic plants.

[0023] In a preferred embodiment, the airbag 203 is provided with a first connecting pipe 207, the other end of which is connected to a vertical support member 204. A first control valve 208 for controlling airflow interruption is provided on the first connecting pipe 207. The airbag 203 is also provided with a second connecting pipe 209, the other end of which is connected to a horizontal support member 205. A second control valve 210 for controlling airflow interruption is also provided on the second connecting pipe 209. Both the vertical support member 204 and the horizontal support member 205 are composed of multiple slidably connected sealing pipes. The sealing pipes have a hollow internal structure and maintain communication with the first connecting pipe 207 and the second connecting pipe 209. In actual use, the staff can control the first control valve 208 to introduce the gas in the airbag 203 into the vertical support 204, thereby adjusting the height of the vertical support 204. After the height of the vertical support 204 is adjusted, it can drive the horizontal support 205 to adjust the height of the pruning head 206. This ensures that it can be adapted to aquatic plants of different heights during use, ensuring its flexibility in harvesting aquatic plants and increasing its pruning effect.

[0024] Similarly, the operator can use the second control valve 210 to introduce the gas in the airbag 203 into the transverse support 205, thereby adjusting the length of the transverse support 205. This allows the transverse support 205 to extend the trimming head 206, thus enabling the trimming head 206 to have a larger trimming range and ensuring that it can meet the trimming effect of different areas during use.

[0025] As a preferred technical solution in this embodiment, the trimming head 206 comprises a rotary motor for transmission and a cutting blade, with the transmission connection fixedly mounted on the transverse support 205. In actual use, when workers trim aquatic plants, they can control the rotary motor to drive the cutting blade to rotate, thereby quickly achieving the effect of trimming the aquatic plants and making the trimming process more labor-saving.

[0026] 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.
