Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ancient tree transplantation technology, and in particular to an integrated device for transplanting, rejuvenating, watering, fertilizing and aerating ancient and famous trees. Background Technology
[0002] Ancient and famous trees, as precious natural and cultural heritage, face severe challenges in their transplantation, rejuvenation, and maintenance. Traditional techniques, mainly relying on surface irrigation and fertilization, have significant drawbacks: First, water and nutrients struggle to penetrate the severely compacted soil layer formed due to age or transplantation, failing to effectively reach the deep root system, leading to resource waste and insufficient supply; second, surface operations exacerbate soil hardening, hindering root respiration and further inhibiting the recovery of ancient trees' vitality; third, while rejuvenation trenches or wells used for declining ancient trees can locally improve the root zone environment, they lack efficient and long-lasting precise water and fertilizer delivery and aeration guarantees, resulting in limited effectiveness and poor sustainability.
[0003] Based on years of practical observation and analysis of technical pain points by practitioners, there is an urgent need for a comprehensive solution that can reach the root zone directly, utilize water and fertilizer efficiently, and improve rhizosphere aeration. Utility Model Content
[0004] This utility model proposes an integrated device for transplanting, rejuvenating, watering, fertilizing, and aerating ancient and famous trees in order to solve the above-mentioned problems.
[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows:
[0006] An integrated device for transplanting and rejuvenating ancient and famous trees, including watering, fertilizing, and aeration, comprises a spring support, wherein the spring support is made of metal wire coiled into a spring shape, and an outer permeable sleeve is nested on the outside of the spring support.
[0007] Furthermore, the outer permeable sleeve is made of non-woven polypropylene roll material in a cylindrical shape.
[0008] Furthermore, the spring support is made of carbon steel, stainless steel, or alloy steel wire.
[0009] Furthermore, the spring support is provided with a rust-proof layer on the outside.
[0010] Furthermore, the diameter of the steel wire supporting the spring is 2-5mm.
[0011] Furthermore, the outer diameter of the spring support is 60-240mm.
[0012] Furthermore, the pitch of the spring support is 12-45mm.
[0013] Furthermore, the larger the diameter of the spring support, the larger the corresponding wire support and the smaller the spring pitch.
[0014] Furthermore, the outer permeable sleeve and the spring support are installed with a clearance fit.
[0015] Furthermore, the outer permeable sleeve is densely covered with holes of 0.1-0.38 mm in diameter.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0017] 1. The device is directly installed in the target root zone. Through the filtration effect of the external permeable jacket, it ensures that water and soluble fertilizer are accurately, evenly and with low loss delivered to the deep root system of the ancient tree that urgently needs nutrients, thus completely overcoming the problems of water and fertilizer loss and insufficient infiltration caused by surface irrigation.
[0018] 2. The pipeline structure, with spring support as its core framework and combined with an external permeable jacket, effectively constructs a gas exchange channel in the root zone soil while transporting water and fertilizer, significantly improving the root respiration environment and alleviating the harm of soil compaction and suffocation.
[0019] 3. Rust-proof steel wire spring coils provide strong compressive and tensile strength, ensuring structural stability and preventing collapse under soil pressure, and have a long service life.
[0020] 4. The steel wire is rust-proofed and combined with a corrosion-resistant external permeable jacket, giving the device excellent erosion and corrosion resistance, making it suitable for complex soil environments.
[0021] 5. The steel wire spring structure is flexible and lightweight, and can be bent freely, making it easy to install in narrow or irregular spaces (such as the bottom of the soil ball or oblique holes).
[0022] 6. Depending on the size of the ancient tree's root ball, the range of the root system, and the project requirements, steel wires of different diameters can be flexibly coiled into spring supports of different diameters and pitches, making the processing simple and flexible.

[0029] 1. Spring support; 2. External permeable sleeve. Detailed Implementation
[0030] 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.
[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, the integrated device for transplanting and rejuvenating ancient and famous trees, including watering, fertilizing and aeration, includes a spring support 1, which is made of metal wire coiled into a spring shape, and an outer permeable sleeve 2 is nested on the outside of the spring support 1.
[0032] In this embodiment, the outer permeable sleeve 2 is made of non-woven polypropylene roll material into a cylindrical shape. The non-woven polypropylene roll material is mainly composed of non-woven fabric and polyethylene as raw materials, with added additives to improve its performance, and is manufactured using new technologies and processes. This roll material has a reinforcing protective layer, an anti-aging layer, a waterproof layer, and an adhesive reinforcing layer. It has a rough surface, and the non-woven fibers have an irregular cross structure, forming a three-dimensional mesh, which is suitable for bonding various materials.
[0033] In this embodiment, the spring support 1 is made of carbon steel, stainless steel or alloy steel wire. Different materials have different service life and hardness. The spring support 1 can be made of multiple wires wound together and then placed in the same outer permeable sleeve 2.
[0034] In this embodiment, the spring support 1 is provided with an anti-rust layer on the outside. The anti-rust layer is an anti-rust paint or an electroplated anti-rust layer. When the steel wire is coiled into a spring, the anti-rust layer can be processed on its surface first. After the anti-rust layer dries, it can be made into a spring support 1.
[0035] In this embodiment, the larger the diameter of the spring support 1, the larger the corresponding wire support and the smaller the spring pitch.
[0036] The selection of wire diameter, pitch, and spring diameter for spring supports is shown in the table below:
[0037]
[0038] In this embodiment, the outer permeable sleeve 2 is installed with a clearance fit with the spring support 1, which makes it easy to put the outer permeable sleeve 2 over the outside of the spring support 1.
[0039] In this embodiment, the outer permeable sleeve 2 is densely covered with holes with a diameter of 0.1-0.38mm, which facilitates the permeation of water and fertilizer, while blocking impurities such as mud and stones from entering the interior of the outer permeable sleeve 2.
[0040] like Figure 2 As shown, when transplanting ancient trees, after the planting pit is dug, planting soil and nutrient organic fertilizer are filled in. After the ancient tree is lowered into the pit, 2-4 of these aeration devices are placed in the pit. One end of the device is placed horizontally around the bottom of the root ball of the ancient tree, and the other end is bent and placed vertically upward along the pit wall. Then, the soil is filled in, ensuring that one end of the aeration device protrudes 3-5cm above the soil surface. During maintenance, water and fertilizer can be directly injected into the spring support 1 that is wrapped with an outer permeable sleeve 2.
[0041] like Figure 3 As shown, when rejuvenating an ancient tree, a rejuvenation trench is first dug under the tree without damaging its thick roots. The depth of the trench is determined by the soil conditions. If the soil density is high and the soil is severely damaged, the trench should be deeper and wider. The aeration device is placed at the bottom of the trench, and then backfilled with loose soil, ensuring that one end protrudes 3-5cm above the soil surface to facilitate watering and fertilization. The number of trenches used is determined by the size of the tree's root system. The larger the root system, the more rejuvenation trenches need to be dug, and multiple rejuvenation trenches are set up around the tree.
[0042] like Figure 4 As shown, if the ancient tree has a poor growing environment and it is impossible to dig a rejuvenation trench, a suitable location can be selected to drill a hole at a straight angle from the outside to the inside of the base of the ancient tree. Then, the device is placed into the hole, leaving 3-5cm at the entrance for later watering and fertilization.
[0043] This device can also be used for the maintenance or drainage of sports fields and park green spaces.
[0044] Components not described in detail in this article are existing technologies.
[0045] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
