[0025] The technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The preferred embodiments described are only examples. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0026] like Figures 1-4 As shown, the specific implementation adopts the following technical solution:

[0027] It contains:

[0028] The fixing plate 1 has an insertion hole 2 through the rear side of its top surface. The cutting plate 3 is movably inserted into the insertion hole 2. The fixing plate 1 plays a positioning role. The fixing plate 1 is placed along the direction of the root and stem, and then the root and stem are cut by the cutting plate 3.

[0029] The guide groove 4 consists of two guide grooves, which are fixed on the left and right sides of the fixing plate 1. Two positioning plates 5 are fixed on the left and right sides of the fixing plate 1, respectively, and the positioning plates 5 are located above the guide grooves 4. A positioning groove 6 is provided through the positioning plate 5. Both the guide grooves 4 and the positioning plates 5 serve as guides and limiters.

[0030] Insert plate 7, there are two insert plates 7, which are movably inserted into the positioning groove 6 respectively. The lower side of the insert plate 7 is inserted into the guide groove 4, and the inclined surface of the insert plate 7 and the guide groove 4 are engaged to abut against each other, so that the insert plate 7 is inserted into the soil at an angle, and the root and soil are wrapped inside. The inner wall of the two positioning grooves 6 is screwed with a rotating rod and the abutting shaft 22 is engaged with the insert plate 7. The rolling of the abutting shaft 22 allows the insert plate 7 to move in the positioning groove 6.

[0031] The pedal 8 is located above the fixed plate 1. The pedal 8 is connected to the top of the insert plate 7 via the connecting assembly 9. The two ends of several springs 10 are respectively connected to the fixed plate 1 and the bottom surface of the pedal 8, so that the operator can control the pedal 8 to descend by stepping on it, thereby inserting the insert plate 7 into the ground. A limit frame 20 is fixed on the pedal 8, and a protective pad 21 is provided on the limit frame 20 to restrict the position of the foot. The position of the fixed plate 1 can be finely adjusted by the foot.

[0032] Two connecting rods 11 are provided. One end of each connecting rod 11 is symmetrically fixed to the left and right sides of the pedal 8. The other end of each connecting rod 11 is connected to the left and right sides of the front side wall of the cutting plate 3. The pedal 8 and the cutting plate 3 move synchronously to separate and transplant the cut rhizomes. A hand-held rod 18 is screwed onto the top surface of the fixing plate 1 using a bearing. The hand-held rod 18 is located between the two connecting rods 11. A locking plate 19 is fitted onto the hand-held rod 18. The locking plate 19 is engaged with the pedal 8. By rotating the hand-held rod 18, the locking plate 19 is engaged on the pedal 8 to restrict the position of the pedal 8.

[0033] Connection component 9 includes:

[0034] The movable rod 12 consists of two rods, which are slidably disposed in the groove 13 on the bottom surface of the pedal 8. The second spring 14 is fixed in the groove 13, and both ends of the second spring 14 are connected to the movable rod 12 and the inner wall of the groove 13, respectively. The elastic force of the second spring 14 is used to limit the movement position of the movable rod 12 in the groove 13.

[0035] Guide plates 15, there are two guide plates 15, and the two ends of the two guide plates 15 are respectively screwed to the top of the moving rod 12 and the top of the insert plate 7 by hinge seats. The rotation of the guide plates 15 controls the tilt of the insert plate 7, so as to limit the insert plate 7 to a suitable tilt angle. The bottom surface of the two moving rods 12 is provided with abutment pads 17, which are set to abut against the guide plates 15 to a certain extent, protecting the guide plates 15 and preventing the guide plates 15 from being damaged by force.

[0036] The abutting block 16 consists of two blocks, which are fixed to the side of the guide plate 15 and are engaged with the insert plate 7 to transfer stress to the insert plate 7, thus preventing the guide plate 15 from being damaged by force.

[0037] When using this utility model, the operator first places the fixing plate 1 in a suitable position according to the growth direction of the Epimedium rhizome. Then, by stepping on it, the operator presses the pedal 8 downwards. The pedal 8 drives the cutting plate 3 to move synchronously through the connecting rod 11. The cutting plate 3 cuts the rhizome. As the pedal 8 descends, the moving rod 12 drives the guide plate 15 to rotate. The guide plate 15 drives the insertion plate 7 to tilt. When the guide plate 15 rotates to a certain angle, the abutting block 16 abuts against the insertion plate 7. The abutting block 16 drives the insertion plate 7 to descend. With the guiding and limiting effect of the guide groove 4, the tilt angle of the insertion plate 7 is limited, so that the insertion plate 7 is inserted into the ground at a fixed angle, thereby wrapping the rhizome between the two insertion plates 7. Finally, the operator rotates the hand lever 18 to lock the clamping plate 19 onto the pedal 8. With the elastic force of the spring 10, the pedal 8 abuts against the clamping plate 19, fixing the position of the insertion plate 7. The soil and the rhizome are wrapped between the two insertion plates 7, which facilitates the transplanting of the rhizome.

[0038] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0039] Through the cooperation of positioning plate 5 and guide groove 4, the insertion plate 7 is inserted into the ground at an inclined angle to wrap the rhizome. Then, the cutting plate 3 is used to cut the rhizome, which makes it easier to divide and transplant the rhizome.

[0040] The connecting component 9 is set up, and the elastic force of the spring 14 is used to make the moving rod 12 move in the groove 13. With the rotation of the guide plate 15, the two side plates 7 are simultaneously tilted and inserted into the ground.

[0041] Set up a card plate 19, and use a hand lever 18 to control the position of the card plate 19, and lock the card plate 19 onto the pedal 8 to restrict the position of the pedal 8;

[0042] A contact shaft 22 is provided, and the rotation of the contact shaft 22 facilitates the movement of the insert plate 7 within the positioning groove 6.

[0043] For those skilled in the art, modifications can be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, and equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
