Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fruit tree planting technology, and in particular to a fruit tree anti-tipping support structure. Background Technology
[0002] During the fruit tree planting process, especially some fruit trees with large canopies, relatively shallow root systems, or located in windy areas, are easily affected by severe weather such as strong winds and heavy rain, causing them to fall over. Falling over not only directly damages the fruit tree itself, affecting its normal growth and fruiting, but in severe cases may even lead to the death of the fruit tree, causing significant economic losses to fruit farmers.
[0003] Existing fruit tree support devices generally consist of a semi-circular limiting frame, a rotatable connecting rod, and a ground-inserting rod. The semi-circular limiting frame restricts the outer side of the fruit tree, the connecting rod supports the semi-circular limiting frame, and the ground-inserting rod fixes the other end of the connecting rod to the ground, as in the prior art document "A Tree Anti-tipping Support Frame" (Announcement No.: CN220307965U). However, when using existing support devices, the ground-inserting rod needs to be inserted into the soil. The bottom of the ground-inserting rod is generally conical. During the transportation of the support device, the conical ground-inserting rod poses certain safety hazards. At the same time, the semi-circular limiting frame cannot be adjusted in real time after installation. During the growth of the fruit tree, the limiting frame can damage the trunk and affect the normal growth of the fruit tree. Therefore, a fruit tree anti-tipping support structure is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0004] (a) Purpose of the utility model
[0005] To address the technical problems existing in the background art, this utility model proposes a fruit tree anti-tipping support structure. By setting up vertical rods, sliding grooves, sliding blocks, lifting plates, and through holes, the installation of ground-inserting poles can be made more convenient and quick. At the same time, the limiting components can limit the lifting plate and ground-inserting poles, preventing the conical bottom of the ground-inserting poles from being exposed to the outside during transportation, thus avoiding the safety hazards caused by the conical bottom of the ground-inserting poles. This structure has the advantages of preventing safety hazards caused by the conical bottom of the ground-inserting poles.

[0021] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings. It should be understood that these descriptions are merely exemplary and not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Furthermore, descriptions of well-known structures and technologies are omitted in the following description to avoid unnecessarily obscuring the concept of this utility model.

Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model. Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

For example, "connected" can be a fixed connection, such as welding, riveting, or bonding; it can also be a detachable connection, such as threaded connection, keyed connection, or pin connection; or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; or it can be a connection within two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.
[0024] like Figure 1-5 As shown, the present invention proposes a fruit tree anti-tipping support structure, which includes two base plates 1 and two mounting blocks 2. The two mounting blocks 2 are in contact with each other on opposite sides. A semi-circular groove is opened on the opposite side of each mounting block 2. The two mounting blocks 2 are respectively set on the top of the two base plates 1. A connecting rod 3 is hinged between the top of the base plate 1 on the same side and the outer side of the mounting block 2. A ground insertion mechanism 4 is provided on the top of the base plate 1.
[0025] In this utility model, the two mounting blocks 2 and the two semi-circular grooves can limit the outer side of the fruit tree, while the base plate 1 and the connecting rod 3 can support the mounting blocks 2. After the support is completed, the base plate 1 can be fixed to the ground by the ground insertion mechanism 4 to ensure the stability of the base plate 1 during support and prevent the base plate 1 from sliding.
[0026] In an optional embodiment, the grounding mechanism 4 includes two vertical rods 41 fixedly installed on the top of the base plate 1. A sliding groove 42 is provided between the opposite sides of the two vertical rods 41. A sliding block 43 is slidably connected inside the two sliding grooves 42. A lifting plate 44 is fixedly installed between the opposite sides of the two sliding blocks 43. Two through holes 45 are provided on the top of the base plate 1, extending to its bottom. Two grounding rods 46 are fixedly installed on the bottom of the lifting plate 44, extending into the two through holes 45 respectively. A limit component 47 is provided on the top of the lifting plate 44.
[0027] It should be noted that after supporting the fruit tree and installing the two mounting blocks 2, the bottom of the two base plates 1 are in contact with the ground. Then, the limiting component 47 loses its limiting effect on the lifting plate 44. At this time, pressing down on the lifting plate 44 will cause the lifting plate 44 to move downward. The lifting plate 44 will drive the two ground-inserting rods 46 to move downward. The two ground-inserting rods 46 will be inserted into the ground through the two through holes 45 respectively. The base plate 1 can be fixed by the two ground-inserting rods 46.
[0028] In addition, during the transportation of the support structure, the lifting plate 44 can be limited by the limiting component 47 to prevent the lifting plate 44 from moving downwards during transportation. At this time, the bottom conical positions of the two grounding rods 46 are located inside the two through holes 45 respectively, to prevent the bottom conical positions of the grounding rods 46 from being exposed to the outside, thus avoiding the safety hazards caused by the bottom conical positions of the grounding rods 46 during transportation.
[0029] In an optional embodiment, the limiting component 47 includes a limiting block 471 fixedly installed on the top of the lifting plate 44. The limiting block 471 has a positioning groove 472 on the side near the vertical rod 41. A vertical plate 473 is fixedly installed on the top of the vertical rod 41. A threaded rod 474 extending into the positioning groove 472 is installed on the side of the vertical plate 473 away from the limiting block 471. The threaded rod 474 is threadedly connected to the vertical plate 473 and is adapted to the positioning groove 472. A knob 475 is fixedly installed on the end of the threaded rod 474 away from the positioning groove 472.
[0030] It should be noted that when the ground-inserting rod 46 needs to be inserted into the ground, the knob 475 is turned. The knob 475 will drive the threaded rod 474 to rotate. Under the action of the threaded thrust, the threaded rod 474 will move away from the positioning groove 472 while rotating. When the threaded rod 474 is disengaged from the positioning groove 472, it will lose its limiting effect on the lifting plate 44. At this time, the lifting plate 44 can be pressed or stepped on directly to make the lifting plate 44 move downward, thereby driving the two ground-inserting rods 46 to move downward, so that the ground-inserting rods 46 are discharged from the corresponding through holes 45 and inserted into the ground.
[0031] In addition, when transporting the support structure, the lifting plate 44 needs to be moved to the top, and then the knob 475 is rotated in the opposite direction to move the threaded rod 474 towards the side close to the positioning groove 472. When the threaded rod 474 enters the positioning groove 472, the limiting block 471 can be limited by the threaded rod 474 and the positioning groove 472, thereby limiting the lifting plate 44 and preventing the lifting plate 44 from slipping during transportation, causing the bottom conical position of the grounding rod 46 to be discharged from the through hole 45, which would create a safety hazard at the bottom conical position of the grounding rod 46.
[0032] In an optional embodiment, two arc-shaped plates 5 are provided between the opposite sides of the two semicircular mounting blocks 2, and two sets of compression mechanisms 6 are provided on the outer end faces of the two semicircular mounting blocks 2. The semicircular mounting blocks 2 are connected to the two arc-shaped plates 5 respectively through the two sets of compression mechanisms 6.
[0033] It should be noted that the four curved plates 5 can support the outer side of the fruit tree. The support from four directions ensures the stability of the fruit tree and prevents it from tipping over due to severe weather. During the support process, the compression mechanism 6 allows the curved plates 5 to have a certain floating space. This allows the curved plates 5 to be squeezed during the growth of the fruit tree, making the curved plates 5 fit the size of the fruit tree. This prevents the curved plates 5 from being unable to be adjusted, which could cause compression of the fruit tree and affect its normal growth.
[0034] In an optional embodiment, the compression mechanism 6 includes mounting plates 61 fixedly installed on the top and bottom of the semi-circular mounting block 2. A sleeve rod 62 is fixedly installed on one side of the two mounting plates 61 near the semi-circular groove. A movable groove 63 is opened at one end of the sleeve rod 62 near the semi-circular groove. A movable rod 64 is slidably connected inside the movable groove 63. A compression spring 65 is fixedly installed inside the movable groove 63. The other end of the compression spring 65 is connected to the movable rod 64.
[0035] It should be noted that during the growth of the fruit tree, the tree will compress the arc-shaped plates 5, causing the four arc-shaped plates 5 to move outward. At this time, the arc-shaped plates 5 will compress the corresponding two movable rods 64, causing the two movable rods 64 to move outward from the two movable slots 63 respectively. The two movable rods 64 will compress the two compression springs 65 respectively. Under the action of the rebound force of the compression springs 65, the arc-shaped plates 5 can have a certain floating space during the growth of the fruit tree. At the same time, the inner side of the arc-shaped plates 5 is stably in contact with the outer side of the fruit tree, ensuring the stability of the support for the fruit tree during the growth process.
[0036] In an optional embodiment, fixing plates 7 are fixedly installed on both the front and back sides of the two mounting blocks 2. Fixing bolts 8 are provided between the two fixing plates 7 on the front and the two fixing plates 7 on the back. The two fixing plates 7 on the same side are fixedly installed by the fixing bolts 8 and nuts.
[0037] It should be noted that the two mounting blocks 2 can be fixedly installed by the fixing plate 7, fixing bolts 8 and nuts, so that the two mounting blocks 2 are stable during installation.
[0038] Working principle:
[0039] In use, the anti-tipping support structure for fruit trees is first installed by placing two mounting blocks 2 on the outside of the fruit tree with their opposite sides in contact. Simultaneously, the inner sides of the four arc-shaped plates 5 abut against the outside of the fruit tree. The mounting blocks 2 are then fixed in place using fixing plates 7, fixing bolts 8, and nuts. During installation, the two mounting blocks 2 are supported by two base plates 1 and connecting rods 3, ensuring the bottom of the base plates 1 contacts the ground. Then, rotating the knob 475 disengages the threaded rod 474 from the positioning groove 472. Pressing or stepping on the lifting plate 44 causes it to move downwards, which in turn moves the two ground-inserting rods 46 downwards. The ground-inserting rods 46 exit through the corresponding through holes 45 and are inserted into the ground, securing the base plates 1 and ensuring the stability of the support structure in supporting the fruit tree.
[0040] 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.
