[0029] 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.

[0030] Please see Figures 1-6 This utility model provides a technical solution: a multifunctional root protection tool for division and planting of aquatic plants, including a first clamping upper cylinder 1, a second clamping upper cylinder 2, a clamping groove 3, a clamping rod 4, a water injection pipe 5, a water storage cotton 6, a clamping lower cylinder 7, a guide rod 8, a guide groove 9, an external thread 10, an internal thread 11, a connecting ring 12, and a fixing rod 13.

[0031] A first clamping upper cylinder 1 is provided, and a second clamping upper cylinder 2 is provided on one side of the first clamping upper cylinder 1. The first clamping upper cylinder 1 and the second clamping upper cylinder 2 together constitute the upper clamping structure. The first clamping upper cylinder 1 and the second clamping upper cylinder 2 are both cylindrical structures with a semi-circular ring structure. The first clamping upper cylinder 1 and the second clamping upper cylinder 2 are hollow sandwich structures. The surfaces of the first clamping upper cylinder 1 and the second clamping upper cylinder 2 are respectively provided with a locking structure to achieve locking and fixing. The locking structure includes a locking groove 3. The locking groove 3 is provided on one side surface of the first clamping upper cylinder 1. The locking groove 3 is a semi-circular groove structure. The locking rod 4 is a semi-circular rod structure and is provided on the other side surface of the first clamping upper cylinder 1. There are 2 sets of locking grooves 3 and locking rods 4. The 2 sets of locking grooves 3 and locking rods 4 are arranged in opposite directions on the surfaces of the first clamping upper cylinder 1 and the second clamping upper cylinder 2.

[0032] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, when using this device to protect the root system of aquatic plants during the division and planting process, place the No. 1 clamping upper cylinder 1 and the No. 2 clamping upper cylinder 2 on both sides of the main root of the aquatic plant, so that the semi-circular structures of the two are combined into a complete cylinder. Align the two sets of locking grooves 3 and locking rods 4, insert the locking rod 4 on the side surface of the No. 1 clamping upper cylinder 1 into the locking groove 3 on the surface of the No. 2 clamping upper cylinder 2 to lock. Similarly, the locking groove 3 on the side surface of the No. 1 clamping upper cylinder 1 and the locking rod 4 on the surface of the No. 2 clamping upper cylinder 2 are locked together, completing the splicing combination of the No. 1 clamping upper cylinder 1 and the No. 2 clamping upper cylinder 2, wrapping the main root of the plant and separating and protecting the main root of the plant.

[0033] A water injection pipe 5 is provided through the upper surface of the first clamping upper cylinder 1. A pipe cap is provided on the outer surface of the water injection pipe 5. The water injection pipe 5 is inserted into the interlayer of the first clamping upper cylinder 1. An arc-shaped water storage cotton 6 is provided through the inner surface of the first clamping upper cylinder 1. Two sets of water injection pipes 5 and water storage cotton 6 are provided. Another set of water injection pipes 5 and water storage cotton 6 is provided on the surface of the second clamping upper cylinder 2.

[0034] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, while the first clamping upper cylinder 1 and the second clamping upper cylinder 2 are wrapping the main root of the plant, water is injected into the interlayer of the first clamping upper cylinder 1 and the second clamping upper cylinder 2 through the water injection pipe 5. After the water enters the interlayer through the water injection pipe 5, it is absorbed by the water storage cotton 6 on the inner surface of the first clamping upper cylinder 1 and the second clamping upper cylinder 2. The water storage cotton 6 slowly releases water on the surface of the main root of the plant, maintaining the humidity around the root system and preventing the root system from drying out during the division and transportation process.

[0035] Below the upper clamping structure is a lower clamping structure. The lower clamping structure clamps and protects the roots of aquatic plants by clamping the lower cylinder 7. The lower clamping structure includes the lower cylinder 7, which is a through cylindrical structure. The lower cylinder 7 and the upper clamping structure are connected and fixed by a guide connection structure. The guide connection structure includes a guide rod 8, which is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the first clamping upper cylinder 1 and the second clamping upper cylinder 2. The guide rod 8 is aligned with the guide groove 9 below. The guide groove 9 is set on the inner wall of the lower cylinder 7. The outer surface of the first clamping upper cylinder 1 and the second clamping upper cylinder 2 is provided with external threads 10, and the inner wall of the lower cylinder 7 is provided with internal threads 11. The internal threads 11 and the external threads 10 are threadedly matched. A circular connecting ring 12 is fixed on the outer surface of the lower cylinder 7. A fixing rod 13 is rotatably installed on the surface of the connecting ring 12. Three fixing rods 13 are arranged in a ring at equal intervals.

[0036] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, when the first clamping upper cylinder 1 and the second clamping upper cylinder 2 in the upper clamping structure protect the main root of the plant, the lower clamping cylinder 7 can be used to protect the lateral roots of the plant. During the process of using the lower clamping cylinder 7 to protect the lateral roots, the guide groove 9 of the lower clamping cylinder 7 is aligned with the guide rod 8 on the outer surface of the upper clamping structure, and inserted from top to bottom along the guide rod 8. This causes the lower clamping cylinder 7 to move downwards along the guide rod 8 on the outer surface of the first clamping upper cylinder 1 and the second clamping upper cylinder 2, wrapping around the lateral roots of the plant from top to bottom. After the guide rod 8 passes through the upper end of the guide groove 9, the lower clamping cylinder 7 is rotated, and the internal thread 11 on the inner wall of the lower clamping cylinder 7 engages with the upper clamping structure. The external thread 10 of the structure is threaded to fix the lower clamping structure. At this time, the lower clamping structure wraps around the lateral roots of the plant. Rotate the fixing rod 13 on the connecting ring 12. The three fixing rods 13 form a triangular support to ensure the stability of the tool and provide stable protection for the plant's root system. When disassembling the device from the root system, continue to rotate the clamping lower cylinder 7 so that the internal thread 11 and the external thread 10 are separated. Pull the clamping lower cylinder 7 downward to separate it from the root system. Since the disassembly direction is from top to bottom, it will not pull the lateral roots of the plant. Pull out the locking rod 4, separate the first clamping upper cylinder 1 and the second clamping upper cylinder 2, take out the main root of the plant, and complete the root protection for the subsequent planting process.

[0037] Working principle: When using this multi-functional root protection tool for propagating aquatic plants by division, the No. 1 clamping upper cylinder 1 and the No. 2 clamping upper cylinder 2 are locked together by the locking groove 3 and the locking rod 4, wrapping the main root of the aquatic plant. The lower clamping cylinder 7 is installed on the outer surface of the No. 1 clamping upper cylinder 1 and the No. 2 clamping upper cylinder 2 by the external thread 10 and the internal thread 11, wrapping the lateral roots of the plant, forming protection for the main root and lateral roots. Water is injected into the hollow interlayer of the No. 1 clamping upper cylinder 1 and the No. 2 clamping upper cylinder 2 through the water injection pipe 5, and the water storage cotton 6 provides continuous moisture to the root system, increasing the overall practicality.

[0038] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
