[0002] Raspberries are delicious and nutritious, making them popular in the market. Climbing raspberry vines have flexible branches that tend to droop and fall over as they grow and bear fruit, affecting not only fruit quality and yield but also hindering harvesting. Therefore, trellises are needed to support the raspberry bushes.
[0003] Based on the above, the following problems were found: the current trellis used for climbing raspberry cultivation cannot be flexibly adjusted according to the growth characteristics of raspberries, and cannot meet the needs of high-efficiency raspberry cultivation. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a trellis for cultivating climbing raspberries.
[0005] The specific technical solution is as follows:
[0006] A trellis for cultivating climbing raspberries includes a pair of uprights, with adjustable lifting sleeves fitted on the outer sides of the uprights; a crossbar is fixedly connected to adjacent sides of the pair of lifting sleeves, and a slide rail is provided on one side of the crossbar, with several sliding sleeves slidably connected to the outer side of the slide rail; a traction rod is fixedly connected to one side of the sliding sleeve, and a binding mechanism is provided on one side of the traction rod, the binding mechanism including at least two equally spaced connecting rods, one end of the connecting rod being fixedly connected to the traction rod, and the other end being provided with a binding rope.

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.
[0025] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other.
[0026] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, but this is not intended to limit the present invention.
[0027] This utility model provides a trellis for cultivating climbing raspberries, referring to... Figures 1-5 ,include:
[0028] A pair of uprights 100 are provided, and lifting sleeves 103 that can be raised and lowered are fitted on the outer side of the uprights 100. A crossbar 104 is fixedly connected to the adjacent sides of the pair of lifting sleeves 103. A slide rail 105 is provided on one side of the crossbar 104. Several sliding sleeves 106 are slidably connected to the outer side of the slide rail 105. A traction rod 107 is fixedly connected to one side of the sliding sleeve 106. A binding mechanism 108 is provided on one side of the traction rod 107. The binding mechanism 108 includes at least two connecting rods 10801 that are evenly distributed. One end of the connecting rod 10801 is fixedly connected to the traction rod 107, and the other end is provided with a binding rope 10802.
[0029] Specifically, the bottom of the support frame 100 is equipped with a conical plug 101, which facilitates aligning the conical plug 101 at the bottom of the support frame 100 with the soil position where raspberries are to be planted. The support frame 100, the lifting sleeve 103, and the crossbar 104 are all made of aluminum alloy, a material that is both lightweight and strong. The lifting sleeve 103 is slidably connected to the support frame 100, allowing it to move up and down on the support frame 100. When the lifting sleeve 103 reaches a suitable height, it is fixed at that height by a fixing structure, thereby adjusting the height of the crossbar 104 to accommodate the height requirements of different growth stages of the raspberries. The sliding sleeve 106 is slidably connected to the slide rail 105. When the sliding sleeve 106 slides to a suitable position on the slide rail 105, it is further fixed at that position by a fixing structure, thereby adjusting the position of the traction rod 107 and enabling traction and support of the raspberry branches at different positions.
[0030] Reference Figure 4 The lifting sleeve 103 has a first threaded hole on one side, and a first locking bolt 10301 is installed in the first threaded hole to fix the lifting sleeve 103 at a specified height on the upright 100. The engagement of the first locking bolt 10301 with the first threaded hole serves to lock the sleeve. When the lifting sleeve 103 moves to the appropriate height, tightening the first locking bolt 10301 will cause the bolt head to press against the outside of the upright 100, fixing the lifting sleeve 103 at that height through friction and pressure, thereby achieving the adjustment of the height of the crossbar 104.
[0031] Reference Figure 5 A second threaded hole is provided on one side of the sliding sleeve 106, and a second locking bolt 10601 is provided in the second threaded hole for fixing the sliding sleeve 106 to a designated position on the slide rail 105. The cooperation between the second locking bolt 10601 and the second threaded hole fixes the sliding sleeve 106 on the slide rail 105. When the sliding sleeve 106 slides to a suitable position on the slide rail 105, the second locking bolt 10601 is tightened. The head of the bolt abuts against the slide rail 105, and the sliding sleeve 106 is fixed in that position by friction. This allows for adjustment of the position of the traction rod 107, thereby enabling traction and support of the raspberry branches at different positions.
[0032] The binding rope 10802 has Velcro fasteners at both ends, allowing for branch binding via Velcro fastening. Made of an elastic material, such as a synthetic material containing rubber, the rope's length is adjustable to suit the thickness of the raspberry branches, making it adaptable to different growth stages and branch sizes. Whether young and tender or gradually thickening mature branches, the rope 10802 can securely and comfortably bind them, preventing damage caused by overly tight or loose binding. The adhesive surfaces of the Velcro fasteners have anti-slip textures to enhance the bond strength. Throughout the raspberry's growth cycle, it effectively resists external factors (such as wind and branch swaying) from affecting the binding, maintaining the correct position of the branches on the trellis and reducing the likelihood of drooping or falling over.
[0033] The bottom outer side of the support frame 100 is provided with a foot pedal 102. The cross-sectional area of the foot pedal 102 is larger than that of the support frame 100, which is used to provide foot support when inserting into the soil. The cross-sectional area of the foot pedal 102 is larger than that of the support frame 100, so the operator can step on the foot pedal 102 and use his own body weight to apply downward pressure. The design of the conical plug 101 can reduce the resistance when inserting into the soil, so that the support frame 100 can be inserted into the soil more easily and can be firmly fixed to the ground.
[0034] The slide rail 105 adopts an I-shaped cross-section structure, and the inner side of the sliding sleeve 106 is provided with a groove that matches the I-shaped slide rail 105 to prevent the sliding sleeve 106 from shifting or falling off during sliding. Since the sliding sleeve 106 does not shift when sliding on the slide rail 105, the position of the traction rod 107 (fixedly connected to the sliding sleeve 106) can be accurately adjusted. This is crucial for the traction and support of raspberry branches, ensuring that the branches grow in the predetermined direction and preventing chaotic branch growth due to inaccurate traction. During long-term use of the trellis, the feature of preventing the sliding sleeve 106 from falling off ensures the integrity of the trellis structure. Whether under daily wind, rain, or the tensile force during the growth of raspberry branches, the sliding sleeve 106 remains stable on the slide rail 105, thus maintaining the normal function of the trellis and reducing the frequency of maintenance due to component detachment or damage.
[0035] Implementation Principle: In use, the height of the crossbar 104 is adjustable by sliding the inner side of the lifting sleeve 103 and the outer side of the upright frame 100, which can easily adapt to the height requirements of raspberry branches at different growth stages. Several sliding sleeves 106 are slidably connected to the outer side of the slide rail 105 to adjust the position of the traction rod 107, thereby achieving traction and support for raspberry branches at different positions and improving the adaptability of the entire frame to raspberry branches in different growth states. The other end of the connecting rod 10801 is equipped with a binding rope 10802 to bind the raspberry branches. The first locking bolt 10301 is installed on the inner side of the first threaded hole to fix the lifting sleeve 103 at the required height and ensure stability. The second locking bolt 10601 is installed on the inner side of the second threaded hole to fix the sliding sleeve 106 after it moves. The slide rail 105 is I-shaped to raise the sliding sleeve 106. To ensure stability during movement and prevent the sliding sleeve 106 from falling off or shifting during sliding, a foot pedal 102 is installed at the bottom outer side of the support frame 100. This allows operators to step on the foot pedal 102 when inserting the support frame 100 into the soil, using their own weight to insert the support frame 100 into the soil more effortlessly and efficiently. The use of Velcro fasteners allows for convenient and quick binding of raspberry branches with the binding rope 10802, and the tightness of the binding can be adjusted according to the thickness of the branches, providing good fixation and protection for the branches. The conical plug 101 facilitates insertion of the support frame 100 into the soil, reducing resistance during insertion and allowing the support frame 100 to be fixed to the ground more quickly, conveniently, and firmly. This invention effectively allows for flexible adjustment according to the growth characteristics of raspberries, thereby meeting the needs of efficient raspberry cultivation and possessing high practical value.

Those skilled in the art should realize that any equivalent substitutions and obvious changes made based on the description and illustrations of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
