Abstract

This utility model relates to the field of sowing tools, and in particular to an integrally molded irregularly shaped pulp tube for planting, comprising an upper tube body and a lower tube body, with the upper tube body positioned above the lower tube body. Its key feature is that a storage tube is provided between the upper and lower tube bodies, with a seed cavity on the inner side of the storage tube. The top of the storage tube is integrally connected to the bottom of the upper tube body. The top of the upper tube body has a first conical section, with a seed placement port on its top surface, extending towards the seed cavity. The bottom of the lower tube body has a second conical section. Through the design of the seed cavity, the first conical section, and the second conical section, when the worker inserts the seed capsule through the seed placement port, the reduced diameter of the first and second conical sections effectively prevents seeds and soil from slipping out of the seed cavity during horizontal transport.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of seeding tools, and in particular to an integrally molded irregularly shaped pulp tube for planting. Background Technology

[0002] Seeding tools are commonly used tools in a range of plant cultivation fields, including agriculture, forestry, ecological restoration, and urban greening. They are used to assist workers in planting or to protect seedlings or seeds. They are usually plastic cylindrical structures used to hold seed capsules to prevent seeds from being blown away by wind or sand or eaten by animals.

[0003] Existing seeding tools, due to their simple cylindrical structure, can prevent seed capsules from being blown away by wind and sand or chewed by animals. However, due to their simple structure, the seed capsules are prone to slipping out of the cylinder when transported horizontally. To address this issue, the inventors have proposed an integrally molded irregularly shaped pulp tube for planting. Utility Model Content

[0005] In a further embodiment of the above description, the top edge of the storage tube is provided with an extended protrusion, which extends in a direction away from the storage tube, and the end of the extended protrusion away from the storage tube is provided with a bend.

[0006] In a further embodiment of the above description, the bent portion extends toward the bottom surface of the storage tube, and a gap is left between the bent portion and the outer wall of the storage tube; during sowing, the gap between the bent portion and the outer wall of the storage tube is used to enhance the fixing effect with the soil.

[0007] In the above description, as a further embodiment, the end of the second conical segment away from the storage tube is provided with a ground insertion tip, and the bottom surface of the ground insertion tip is provided with a soil inlet hole, which extends and conducts in the direction of the storage tube; the ground insertion tip can be used by workers to directly insert the present invention into the figure for fixation without digging a pit.

[0008] In the above description, as a further embodiment, the outer cylindrical surface of the second conical section is provided with flow holes, which extend through the soil inlet hole; the flow holes facilitate the growth of seed roots and prevent the plant roots from tangling together inside the tube.

[0009] In the above description, as a further embodiment, the bottom surface of the lower tube is provided with a first inclined surface, and the middle of the outer side of the storage tube is provided with a second inclined surface; the inclined surface can reduce the resistance when the staff inserts the plug tip.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: through the design of the seed cavity, the first conical segment and the second conical segment, when the worker inserts the seed capsule from the seed inlet, the first conical segment and the second conical segment with the narrowed diameter design effectively prevent the seeds and soil from sliding out of the seed cavity when the utility model is placed and transported laterally.
