[0039] Working principle: When in use, first place the bracket 1 in a suitable position, step on the foot plate 3 to insert the conical nail 4 into the ground, and drive the rotating rod 5 and the turntable 7 to rotate by turning the handle 6. The connecting shaft 9 on the inner wall of the arc groove 8 on the turntable 7 drives the push rod 10 and the slider 11 to slide along the limiting groove 13, further securing the bracket 1 into the soil.

[0040] Based on the height of the tomato plant, pull the insertion rod 20 to move the baffle 21 and compress the spring 22. At this time, the L-shaped rod 19 slides into the thin shell 17 under the action of gravity, preventing the baffle 21 and the insertion rod 20 from being pushed back to their original positions under the action of the spring 22. This allows the insertion rod 20 to be re-inserted into the insertion slot 16. At this time, the insertion rod 20 is completely removed from the insertion slot 16. Pull the top frame 23 to move the telescopic rod 15 to slide in the fixed cylinder 14. When the appropriate height is reached, pull the L-shaped rod 19 upward. The spring 22 pushes the baffle 21 to its original position, thereby pushing the insertion rod 20 into the insertion slot 16 of the telescopic rod 15, fixing the height of the telescopic rod 15.
