Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of forestry equipment and facilities, and in particular relates to a composite tree wind-resistant protection support device. Background Technology
[0002] Mine ecological restoration refers to the comprehensive management of areas ecologically damaged by mining activities to restore their ecological functions, improve environmental quality, and achieve sustainable use. Mining activities often lead to a series of ecological problems such as soil erosion, vegetation destruction, water pollution, and biodiversity loss. To achieve vegetation restoration, native plant species suitable for mining areas are selected for planting and restoration to increase vegetation coverage. Vegetation restoration not only conserves water and soil and purifies the air, but also provides habitats for animals and promotes biodiversity recovery. Because the root systems of vegetation planted during mine restoration are underdeveloped, they require a long period of cultivation and protection to mature. The most commonly used protective measure is to install wind-resistant protection devices on the trees.
[0003] Currently, most wind protection devices for trees are rigid structures, such as the tree support frame with adjustable support column modules disclosed in existing patent document CN201520696164.2, a greening tree support device and support method for landscaping construction disclosed in patent CN202410548146.3, and a fixed support device and a fixed support device for multiple trees disclosed in CN202121095314.6. Because the trunk diameter of the trees used for restoration is small and their strength is relatively low, rigid support frames, although providing support, are prone to causing the trunks to break in half under wind force, increasing the cost of vegetation restoration and prolonging the restoration cycle. Utility Model Content
[0004] This utility model addresses the technical problems existing in the aforementioned vertical support devices by proposing a composite tree wind-resistant protection support device that is reasonably designed, has elastic support capacity, good wind-resistant buffering effect, and is conducive to improving tree trunk safety and mine vegetation restoration.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: the composite tree wind-resistant protection support device provided by this utility model includes multiple ground bolts, each ground bolt having an n-shaped structure with both bottom ends being pointed cones. Each ground bolt is inverted onto a ring plate, and a plastic support tube is provided on the inner side of the ring plate. The plastic support tube includes a cylindrical part and a bottom plate part. The plastic support tube has 2-6 evenly distributed support ports that penetrate the bottom near its bottom. The cylindrical part has an elastic protective component near its top. The elastic component includes a protective airbag, and a valve core assembly is provided on the protective airbag. The cylindrical part has a through hole for the valve core assembly to pass through.
[0006] Preferably, the plastic support tube is one of polyvinyl chloride tube, polyethylene tube, polypropylene tube, cross-linked polyethylene tube, and aluminum-plastic composite tube.
[0007] Preferably, the protective airbag has a C-shaped cross-section.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0013] This utility model provides a composite tree wind-resistant protection support device. Using ground bolts, ring plates can be fixed to the ground surface around the tree requiring protection. The ring plates limit the vertical deformation of the plastic support tube. Under pressure, the plastic support tube and elastic protection components can deform accordingly, providing elastic protection for the tree.

[0022] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other. For ease of description, the terms "upper," "lower," "left," and "right" appearing below only indicate that they correspond to the upper, lower, left, and right directions in the accompanying drawings and do not limit the structure.
[0023] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed in the following specification.
[0024] Examples, such as Figures 1-6 As shown, the composite tree wind-resistant protection support device provided by this utility model includes multiple ground bolts 1. Each ground bolt 1 has an n-shaped structure with two pointed cone-shaped ends. Each ground bolt 1 is inverted onto a ring plate 2. A plastic support tube 3 is provided on the inner side of the ring plate 2. The plastic support tube 3 includes a cylindrical part 31 and a bottom plate part 32. Near its bottom, the plastic support tube 3 has 2-6 evenly distributed support openings 33 penetrating its bottom. Near its top, the cylindrical part 31 has an elastic protective component 4. The elastic component includes a protective airbag 41, and the protective airbag 41 has a valve core assembly 42. The cylindrical part 31 has a through hole for the valve core assembly 42 to pass through. The valve core assembly 42 can be a relatively mature valve core assembly 42 from the prior art, used to inflate and support the protective airbag 41. The valve core assembly 42 used in this utility model preferably includes... Figure 6 The structure shown, such as the valve core assembly 42, includes an air nozzle corresponding to the protective airbag 41. A spring is installed inside the air nozzle, and a valve core is installed in the air passage of the air nozzle. The valve core and the air nozzle are axially movable. The side of the valve core has a valve hole that connects to the back of the protective airbag 41 after axial movement. A sealing cap is installed on the outside of the air nozzle. In this way, when the air pump clamps the valve core and presses it towards the protective airbag 41, the valve hole connects to the protective airbag 41, thus achieving inflation. When the air pump leaves the valve core and pulls it outward, the valve hole closes by resting against the inner wall of the air nozzle. Combined with the spiral sealing effect of the sealing cap, this ensures that the protective airbag 41 remains in an inflated state for a longer period, thereby providing corresponding elastic support.
[0025] Specifically, the ground bolts 1 can be used to fix the hoop plates 2 around the ground surface of the trees to be protected. Each ground bolt 1 has two pointed cones that penetrate the ground, which can improve the ground grip of the device. The diameter of the plastic support tube 3 is larger than the diameter of the tree trunk. After the tree is planted, the plastic support tube 3 can be fitted over the outside of the tree trunk from top to bottom, and the hoop plates 2 are used to limit the vertical deformation of the plastic support tube 3. The protective airbag 41 serves as a clamping structure between the plastic support tube 3 and the tree trunk. By inflating the valve core assembly 42, the protective airbag 41 can be inflated and expanded, maintaining a large support surface with the tree trunk surface. Furthermore, the plastic support tube 3 and the elastic protective component 4 can deform accordingly under pressure, providing elastic protection for the tree, with good wind resistance and avoiding the probability of the tree breaking in half. Therefore, this utility model is reasonably designed, has elastic support capacity, good wind resistance and buffering effect, is conducive to improving the safety of tree trunks, and is beneficial to the restoration of vegetation in mines.
[0026] To ensure the supporting performance of the plastic support tube 3, the plastic support tube 3 provided by this utility model is one of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) pipe, polyethylene (PE) pipe, polypropylene (PP) pipe, cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) pipe, and aluminum-plastic composite pipe. Using these plastic pipes as the plastic support tube 3 of this device maintains reasonable strength while possessing a certain degree of elasticity. In particular, it allows the cylindrical part 31 to deform accordingly under external force, adapting to the direction of wind. Simultaneously, it allows the protective airbag 41 to deform and buffer reasonably on the outside of the tree trunk, thereby improving the elastic support performance of this device for the tree trunk. Furthermore, the plastic pipes made of these materials have good corrosion resistance and high adaptability to outdoor conditions, thus having a long service life.
[0027] To facilitate the wrapping of the protective airbag 41 around the outside of the tree trunk, the protective airbag 41 provided by this invention has a C-shaped cross-section. In this way, when not inflated, the protective airbag 41 can sit between the cylindrical portion 31 and the tree trunk. As the inflated volume increases, the protective airbag 41 forms a C-shaped structure on the outside of the tree trunk, constrained by the cylindrical portion 31. This composite structure allows the device to achieve reasonable elastic cushioning performance, thereby providing better protection and support for the tree trunk.
[0028] To reduce the upward buoyancy exerted by wind from the bottom of the protective airbag 41, this invention provides a ventilation component 5 at the C-shaped opening of the protective airbag 41. The proximal end of the ventilation component 5 has a certain gap with the tree trunk, and the protective airbag 41 does not completely enclose the tree trunk, allowing the wind force penetrating from bottom to top to be depressurized through the ventilation hole 52, thereby significantly reducing the buoyancy of the device and ensuring its stability outdoors.
[0029] Furthermore, the ventilation component 5 provided by this utility model includes a ventilation plate 51. The ventilation plate 51 has a U-shaped cross-section with its U-shaped opening facing the side of the cylindrical portion 31. The cylindrical portion 31 is provided with a slot 34 corresponding to the ventilation plate 51. The inner side of the ventilation plate 51 is provided with a plurality of ventilation holes 52 distributed along its height direction. The slot 34 provides a limited opening and closing diameter for the ventilation plate 51. The two sides of the ventilation plate 51 contact the two ends of the protective airbag 41, so that the protective airbag 41 maintains a semi-enclosed position on the tree trunk. While ensuring its buffering effect on the tree trunk, it can achieve reasonable pressure relief and avoid the protective airbag 41 generating too much buoyancy, which would affect the gripping effect of the ground anchor 1. Furthermore, the U-shaped design of the ventilation plate 51 has an elastic opening and closing capability, which can adapt to external forces and the pressure of the protective airbag 41 to achieve real-time balance.
[0030] To improve the stability of the ventilation plate 51, a limiting groove 53 is provided on the surface of the ventilation plate 51 facing the protective airbag 41, and a retaining edge 54 is provided at the end of the ventilation plate 51 located outside the cylindrical part 31. The limiting groove 53 is used to limit the relative displacement of the ventilation plate 51 and the protective airbag 41 in the vertical direction, and the retaining edge 54 is used to limit the displacement of the ventilation plate 51 in the horizontal direction, thereby improving the elastic clamping performance of the ventilation plate 51, the protective airbag 41 and the cylindrical part 31 on the tree trunk.
[0031] To improve the gripping performance of the ring plate 2 and the ground bolt 1, the ring plate 2 provided by this utility model has a connecting post 21 at one end and a connecting hole 22 that mates with the connecting post 21 at the other end. A locking nut 23 is provided on the outer surface of the connecting post 21 located at the connecting hole 22. A clamping plate 24 is provided on the ring plate 2 at the position corresponding to the ground bolt 1, and a positioning port 25 is provided on the clamping plate 24. The ground bolt 1 is inserted below the ground surface from the position of the positioning port 25. The positioning port 25 provides an effective positioning node for the ground bolt 1 and reduces the difficulty of the ground bolt 1 being pulled up by wind or blown off course. By changing the actual mate of the connecting hole 22 with the connecting post 21, the ring plate 2 can obtain different circumferential diameters, thereby improving the vertical positioning performance of the ring plate 2 on the plastic support pipe 3.
[0032] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any other way. Any person skilled in the art may make changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments for application in other fields. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the technical solution of the present utility model shall still fall within the protection scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
