Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of planting green trees, and in particular to a support device for roadside trees used in municipal landscaping. Background Technology

[0002] With the acceleration of urbanization, street trees in municipal landscaping not only serve the functions of purifying the air and providing shade and cooling, but are also an important part of the urban landscape. Since street trees are usually planted on both sides of roads with high pedestrian traffic and strong winds, their stability is crucial to their growth and landscape effect. Therefore, reliable support devices are needed to cope with external loads such as wind and rain.

[0003] Utility model patent CN216795955U discloses a "Sapling Support Device," which forms a four-corner support structure through four inclined braces, a top grid frame, and a bottom fixing component, providing a certain degree of stable support for roadside trees. The device adjusts the central connection strength using components such as sliding sleeves and telescopic rods in the waist cross brace assembly, and uses fixed anchors inserted into the soil for bottom fixation. However, this type of support device still has significant shortcomings in practical applications.

[0004] On the one hand, the device cannot adapt to roadside trees of different diameters, nor can it adaptively support the trees as they grow, requiring customized support devices for different roadside trees. Its grid frame fixes the tree trunk with steel wire and lacks a dynamic adaptation structure for the increasing trunk diameter. As the trees grow and the trunk diameter gradually increases, the constraint at the fixed position may damage the bark, and the fixed position of the grid frame and support points affects the stability of the bottom fixing components.

[0005] On the other hand, the device has a complex structure and lacks aesthetic appeal, serving only as temporary support and making it unsuitable for municipal landscaping scenarios. It comprises multiple components, including diagonal braces, a grid frame, horizontal bracing components, and fixing anchors. Installation requires repeated binding of steel wires and adjustment of fasteners, making the process cumbersome. The bottom fixing anchor method, inserted into the soil, is only suitable for short-term fixation; long-term use is prone to loosening due to soil settlement. Furthermore, exposed steel wires, bolts, and other components affect the overall aesthetics of the road landscape, falling short of the aesthetic and long-term maintenance requirements of municipal landscaping.

[0006] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a new type of support device that can adapt to the planting of street trees of different diameters and grow with the street trees, while also having a simple and beautiful structure and long-term stable support performance, in order to meet the actual needs of municipal landscaping.

[0007] It should be noted that the above technical information is intended only to enhance the understanding of the overall background technology of this utility model, and should not be regarded as an admission or in any form implying that the above technical information constitutes prior art known to those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0008] To address the shortcomings in the aforementioned background technology, this utility model proposes a roadside tree support device for municipal landscaping. The technical problem to be solved is: how to provide adaptive support for roadside trees of different diameters and as they grow, and how to meet the beautification needs of municipal landscaping while supporting the roadside trees.

[0009] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0010] A roadside tree support device for municipal landscaping includes a precast concrete component adapted to the outer edge of the planting pit of the roadside tree. The precast concrete component is hinged with at least three stainless steel diagonal braces distributed around the planting pit of the roadside tree. The top of each stainless steel diagonal brace is hinged with a stainless steel arc-shaped plate for forming a ring around it. Each stainless steel arc-shaped plate is threaded with a stainless steel bolt. The end of the stainless steel bolt facing the roadside tree is connected to an arc-shaped resin plate through an elastic element. The stainless steel diagonal brace is connected to a flower pot support plate for placing green flower pots. The roadside tree support device provided by this technical solution not only provides permanent support as the roadside trees grow, but also can be used for planting roadside trees of different diameters. Furthermore, it integrates seamlessly with municipal landscaping, further beautifying the urban environment. The specific principle is as follows: First, the precast concrete components not only serve as anchor-free support bases, but also fit perfectly into the planting pits of the roadside trees. The outer wall of the precast concrete components abuts against the inner edge of the planting pit, and can also abut against the concrete layer beneath the plastic sidewalk or permeable brick pavement, thus concealing itself within the planting pit and blending it into the road environment. Simultaneously, the flowerpot support plate connected by stainless steel diagonal braces can hold landscape flowerpots, thereby allowing the stainless steel... The diagonal bracing is concealed, allowing it to blend seamlessly into the landscape. More importantly, the stainless steel curved plates forming a ring-shaped clamp do not directly contact the outer surface of the roadside trees. Instead, the trees are supported by curved resin plates connected to the stainless steel curved plates. Furthermore, the spacing between the curved resin plates and the stainless steel curved plates is adjustable, allowing for periodic adjustments of the stainless steel bolts to accommodate the growth of the roadside trees. Additionally, elastic elements are installed between the curved resin plates and the stainless steel bolts. Due to the low coefficient of friction between the curved resin plates and the outer surface of the roadside trees, even if inspectors forget to adjust the stainless steel bolts within a certain period, the relative position between the curved resin plates and the roadside trees can adaptively change under the action of the elastic elements as the trees grow.

[0011] Based on the above technical solutions, as a preferred technical solution for roadside tree support devices used in municipal landscaping, adjacent stainless steel curved plates are detachably connected by bolt groups.

[0012] Based on the above technical solution, as a preferred technical solution for a roadside tree support device used in municipal landscaping, the stainless steel arc plate is connected to a flower pot support plate two for placing green flower pots.

[0013] Based on the above technical solution, as a preferred technical solution for a roadside tree support device used in municipal landscaping, the flower pot support plate is provided in a plurality of units, and each flower pot support plate is arranged at equal intervals along the length direction of the stainless steel diagonal brace.

[0014] Based on the above technical solution, as a preferred technical solution for a roadside tree support device used in municipal landscaping, the angle between the flowerpot support plate and the stainless steel diagonal brace, and the angle between the stainless steel diagonal brace and the roadside tree are complementary angles.

[0015] Based on the above technical solutions, as a preferred technical solution for a roadside tree support device used in municipal landscaping, the second flowerpot support plate is vertically connected to the outer side of the stainless steel arc plate away from the roadside tree.

[0016] Based on the above technical solutions, as a preferred technical solution for a roadside tree support device used in municipal landscaping, both the flowerpot support plate one and the flowerpot support plate two are provided with positioning posts at their centers for inserting into the ventilation holes at the bottom of the flowerpot, and both the flowerpot support plate one and the flowerpot support plate two are provided with stop edges for stopping the flowerpot.

[0017] Based on the above technical solutions, as a preferred technical solution for a roadside tree support device used in municipal landscaping, the precast concrete component is a U-shaped integrated structure, with a hinge seat embedded on each side of the precast concrete component, and a hinge shaft adapted to the hinge seat is provided at the lower end of the stainless steel diagonal brace.

[0018] Based on the above technical solution, as a preferred technical solution for a roadside tree support device used in municipal landscaping, the stainless steel arc plate is provided with a hinge seat two on the outer side away from the roadside tree, and the upper end of the stainless steel diagonal brace is provided with a hinge shaft two that is adapted to the hinge seat two.

[0019] Based on the above technical solutions, as a preferred technical solution for a roadside tree support device used in municipal landscaping, the elastic element is a rubber block.

[0020] Compared with existing technologies, the roadside tree support device provided by this technical solution can not only provide permanent support as the roadside trees grow by periodically adjusting the stainless steel bolts, but also can be used for planting roadside trees of different diameters. At the same time, by setting up flower pot support plate one and flower pot support plate two, the stainless steel diagonal brace and stainless steel curved plate can be integrated with the municipal landscaping, further beautifying the municipal landscaping.

[0044] Techniques, methods, and equipment known to those skilled in the art may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, they should be considered part of the specification.

[0045] A tree support device for municipal landscaping, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, it includes a precast concrete component 2 that is adapted to the outer edge of the tree planting pit 1. The precast concrete component 2 can be either an integral structure or a split structure. Its purpose is to form a ring structure around the tree planting pit 1. The inner side is used for planting trees, and the outer side is used to abut against the external soil or concrete roadbed, thereby integrating the entire precast concrete component 2 into the green environment.

[0046] Preferably, when the precast concrete component 2 is a one-piece structure, its outer contour is square, and its inner contour is also square or circular. When the precast concrete component 2 is a split structure, it is preferably composed of two U-shaped structural members. Regardless of whether the precast concrete component 2 is a one-piece or split structure, it is preferable to embed reinforcing ribs inside it during precasting, and the reinforcing ribs can also extend out of its bottom surface and be inserted into the planting pit 1 for roadside trees.

[0047] The precast concrete component 2 is hinged with four stainless steel diagonal braces 3 distributed around the planting pit 1 for roadside trees. The top of each stainless steel diagonal brace 3 is hinged with a stainless steel arc-shaped plate 4 for forming a ring clamp. That is, the lower end of the stainless steel diagonal brace 3 is hinged to the hinge seat embedded in the precast concrete component 2, and the upper end of the stainless steel diagonal brace 3 is hinged to the hinge seat on the outside of the stainless steel arc-shaped plate 4. When the stainless steel arc-shaped plates 4 are brought together, the adjacent stainless steel arc-shaped plates 4 can be connected by connectors to form a ring clamp for mounting the roadside trees.

[0048] Each stainless steel curved plate 4 is threaded with a stainless steel bolt 5. The end of the stainless steel bolt 5 facing the street tree is connected to the curved resin plate 7 via an elastic element 6. The stainless steel diagonal brace 3 is connected to a flower pot support plate 9-1 for placing green flower pots. Preferably, the stainless steel bolt 5 is connected to the elastic element 6 through a rotating structure, and the elastic element 6 is fixedly connected to the curved resin plate 7. When the stainless steel bolt 5 is rotated, the curved resin plate can be moved closer to or away from the street tree, while the curved resin plate 7 will not rotate with it. This allows for the planting of street trees of different diameters and for different ages of the same street tree.

[0049] As for the specific construction of the rotating structure, there are several options, such as... Figure 3 As shown, for example, if a blind hole is made in the elastic element 6, the stainless steel bolt 5 can rotate relative to the elastic element 6, that is, it can rotate relative to the arc-shaped resin plate; another example is that the elastic element 6 is fixedly connected to a rotating outer ring, while the stainless steel bolt 5 is fixedly connected to a rotating inner ring, and the rotating inner ring and the rotating outer ring are rotatably engaged; and so on. Under the technical guidance of this embodiment, those skilled in the art can choose various practical implementation methods.

[0050] The tree support device provided in this embodiment can not only provide permanent support as the trees grow, but also be used for planting trees of different diameters. Furthermore, it can be integrated with municipal landscaping to further beautify the urban landscape. The specific principle is as follows:

[0051] First, the precast concrete component 2 can not only serve as an anchor-free support base, but also be compatible with the tree planting pit 1. The outer wall of the precast concrete component 2 abuts against the inner edge of the tree planting pit, and can abut against the concrete layer under the plastic sidewalk or permeable brick pavement, thus hiding inside the tree planting pit 1 and integrating it with the road environment.

[0052] Meanwhile, the flowerpot support plate 9-1 connected to the stainless steel diagonal brace 3 can hold landscape flowerpots, thus concealing the stainless steel diagonal brace 3 and integrating it with the landscape environment; more importantly, the stainless steel arc plate 4 forming a ring clamp does not directly contact the outer surface of the roadside tree, but supports the roadside tree through the arc resin plate 7 connected to the stainless steel arc plate 4. At the same time, the distance between the arc resin plate 7 and the stainless steel arc plate 4 is adjustable, so the stainless steel bolt 5 can be adjusted periodically to adapt to the growth of the roadside tree.

[0053] Meanwhile, an elastic element 6 is provided between the arc-shaped resin plate 7 and the stainless steel bolt 5. Since the coefficient of friction between the arc-shaped resin plate 7 and the outer surface of the roadside tree is small, as the roadside tree grows, even if the inspectors forget to adjust the stainless steel bolt 5 within a certain period of time, the relative position between the arc-shaped resin plate 7 and the roadside tree can also change adaptively under the action of the elastic element 6.

[0054] Based on the above embodiments, as a preferred embodiment of the roadside tree support device for municipal landscaping, adjacent stainless steel curved plates 4 are detachably connected by bolt groups 8. Preferably, each stainless steel curved plate 4 has a flange plate 4-1 at both ends, which is perpendicularly connected to the stainless steel curved plate 4 along its height. The flange plate 4-1 has a connecting through hole, and adjacent stainless steel curved plates 4 are connected to the connecting through holes on the paired flange plates 4-1 by bolt groups 8.

[0055] Based on the above embodiments, as a preferred embodiment of the roadside tree support device for municipal landscaping, the stainless steel curved plate 4 is connected to a flowerpot support plate 9-2 for placing flowerpots. The landscape flowerpots placed on the flowerpot support plate 9-2 can cover the stainless steel curved plate 4. Preferably, each stainless steel curved plate 4 is connected to at least one flowerpot support plate 9-2, and the flowerpot support plate 9-2 is arranged perpendicular to the stainless steel curved plate 4. When the stainless steel curved plate 4 is in contact with the roadside tree, the flowerpot support plate 9-2 is in a horizontal state.

[0056] Based on the above embodiments, as a preferred embodiment of the roadside tree support device for municipal landscaping, several flowerpot support plates 9-1 are provided, and each flowerpot support plate 9-1 is arranged at equal intervals along the length direction of the stainless steel diagonal brace 3. Preferably, the flowerpot support plate 9-1 is a circular plate, and the flowerpot support plate 9-2 is an arc-shaped plate.

[0057] Based on the above embodiments, in a preferred embodiment of the roadside tree support device for municipal landscaping, the angle between the flowerpot support plate 9-1 and the stainless steel diagonal brace 3, and the angle between the stainless steel diagonal brace 3 and the roadside tree, are complementary angles. Therefore, after the stainless steel diagonal brace 3 is in place, the flowerpot support plate 9-1 is in a horizontal state. Of course, as in other embodiments, the flowerpot support plate 9-1 and the flowerpot support plate 9-2 can also be in a non-horizontal state, as long as they can support the landscape flowerpots.

[0058] Based on the above embodiments, as a preferred embodiment of the roadside tree support device for municipal landscaping, the flowerpot support plate 29-2 is vertically connected to the outer side of the stainless steel arc plate 4 away from the roadside tree.

[0059] Based on the above embodiments, as a preferred embodiment of the roadside tree support device for municipal landscaping, the center of both the flowerpot support plate 1 9-1 and the flowerpot support plate 2 9-2 is provided with a positioning post 9-3 for inserting into the ventilation hole at the bottom of the flowerpot, and the edges of both the flowerpot support plate 1 9-1 and the flowerpot support plate 2 9-2 are provided with a stop edge 9-4 for stopping the flowerpot.

[0060] Based on the above embodiments, as a preferred embodiment of the roadside tree support device for municipal landscaping, the precast concrete component 2 is a U-shaped integrated structure, and each side of the precast concrete component 2 is pre-embedded with a hinge seat 2-1, and the lower end of the stainless steel diagonal brace 3 is provided with a hinge shaft 3-1 adapted to the hinge seat 2-1.

[0061] Based on the above embodiments, as a preferred embodiment of the roadside tree support device for municipal landscaping, the stainless steel arc plate 4 is provided with a hinge seat 4-2 on the outer side away from the roadside tree, and the upper end of the stainless steel diagonal brace 3 is provided with a hinge shaft 3-2 adapted to the hinge seat 4-2.

[0062] Based on the above embodiments, as a preferred embodiment of the roadside tree support device for municipal landscaping, the elastic element 6 is a rubber block.
