Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fruit planting technology, and more specifically to a branch support device for fruit planting. Background Technology

[0002] Fruit trees are trees that produce edible fruit. They are perennial plants that provide edible fruits and seeds, such as apple trees, pear trees, citrus trees, apricot trees, peach trees, etc. Modern orchards pursue high-density planting, which requires the use of support devices to optimize space utilization. At the same time, in the later stages of the fruiting period, the weight of the fruit causes the branches to droop at an increased angle. Therefore, support devices are needed to support the branches during the planting process to prevent them from breaking.

[0003] The shortcomings of existing technologies are as follows: the existing support device structure is usually fixed and cannot flexibly adjust the support angle and height according to the growth direction of the branches. The height of the device will affect the support strength, resulting in insufficient support effect. In addition, the existing traction method for supporting branches may cause uneven stress on the branches due to improper angle, which will affect the normal growth of the branches. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, the present invention provides a branch support device for fruit planting, so as to solve the problem that the existing support devices in the background art cannot flexibly adjust the support angle and height according to the growth direction of the branches, resulting in insufficient support effect, and uneven stress on the branches, which easily affects the normal growth of the branches.

[0005] This utility model provides the following technical solution: a branch support device for fruit planting, including a support base, a plurality of fixed rods fixedly connected to the top of the support base, an adjustable support seat provided above the support base, a plurality of limiting sleeves provided on the adjustable support seat, a fixed ring fixedly connected to the outer surface of the adjustable support seat, and a plurality of support components fixedly connected to the top of the fixed ring.

[0006] The support assembly includes six first rotating connectors fixedly installed on the top of the fixed ring. An extension rod is rotatably connected to each of the first rotating connectors, and an arc-shaped support rod is fixedly connected to the end of the extension rod away from the first rotating connector.

[0007] Preferably, the adjusting support includes two arc-shaped clamps, the inner wall of which is fixedly connected with a soft pad, and the arc-shaped clamps have several through holes.

[0008] Preferably, the surface of the fixed ring is fixedly connected to six second rotating connectors, and a hydraulic push rod is rotatably connected to each of the second rotating connectors. The extended end of the hydraulic push rod is rotatably connected to a connecting rod.

[0009] Preferably, the six first rotating connectors and second rotating connectors are arranged in a circular array, and the end of the connecting rod away from the extended end of the hydraulic jack is fixedly connected to the extension rod.

[0010] Preferably, several limiting sleeves correspond to the positions of the through holes and are fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the through holes. The several limiting sleeves and the fixing rods are arranged in a circular array. The fixing rods pass through and are movably connected to the inner cavity of the limiting sleeves. Limiting bolts are provided on the limiting sleeves.

[0011] Preferably, both ends of the arc-shaped clamping ring are fixedly connected to connecting blocks, the connecting blocks have connecting holes in the middle, the inner cavity of the connecting holes is provided with connecting parts, and the structure of the support base is the same as that of the adjusting support base.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] 1. This utility model supports fruit tree branches by providing a support component. During use, the angle and height of the extension rod are adjusted according to the specific growth condition of the fruit tree. When adjusting, the hydraulic jack is activated. Through the extension and retraction of the extended end of the hydraulic jack, the extension rod is pushed up and down through the first rotating connector, which drives the arc-shaped support rod to adjust its height. This allows the arc-shaped support rod to support the bottom of the fruit tree branch, playing an auxiliary supporting role and preventing the branch from tilting downwards and breaking due to excessive weight. While ensuring the support effect, it also improves the flexibility of the branch's growth direction and effectively improves the uniformity and stability of the arc-shaped support rod's support for the branch.

[0014] 2. This utility model, by providing an adjustable support base, makes the device applicable to different types of fruit trees. When fixing the device, the height of the two arc-shaped clamps on the surface of the fixing rod is adjusted according to the specific height of the branches. After adjusting to a suitable height, the limiting bolt is rotated to fix the position of the limiting sleeve, thereby fixing the height of the adjustable support base. This allows the support device to be applicable to various types of fruit trees, effectively increasing the applicability of the device. At the same time, the soft pad protects the surface of the tree trunk, preventing the arc-shaped clamps from directly clamping the tree trunk surface for a long time, which could cause damage to the tree trunk surface.

[0020] The technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In addition, the forms of the various structures described in the following embodiments are merely illustrative. The fruit planting branch support device involved in this utility model is not limited to the structures described in the following embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0021] This utility model provides a branch support device for fruit planting, such as... Figure 1 - Figure 4 As shown, it includes a support base 1, with several fixing rods 2 fixedly connected to the top of the support base 1, an adjusting support seat 3 is provided above the support base 1, the adjusting support seat 3 is provided with several limiting sleeves 4, a fixing ring 5 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the adjusting support seat 3, and several supporting components 6 are fixedly connected to the top of the fixing ring 5.

[0022] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the support assembly 6 includes six first rotating connectors 61 fixedly installed on the top of the fixed ring 5. An extension rod 62 is rotatably connected to the first rotating connector 61. An arc-shaped support rod 63 is fixedly connected to the end of the extension rod 62 away from the first rotating connector 61. The extension rod 62 rotates through the first rotating connector 61, so that the device can adjust the angle of the extension rod 62 according to the growth of the fruit tree. At the same time, the arc-shaped support rod 63 supports the bottom of the fruit tree branches, playing an auxiliary supporting role, preventing the branches from tilting downwards and breaking due to excessive weight, ensuring the support effect while improving the flexibility of the branch growth direction.

[0023] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, the adjusting support 3 includes two arc-shaped clamps 31. The inner wall of the arc-shaped clamps 31 is fixedly connected with a soft pad 32. Several through holes 33 are opened on the arc-shaped clamps 31. The device is fixed under the branches by the two arc-shaped clamps 31 on the surface of the fruit tree trunk. The soft pad 32 on the inner wall of the arc-shaped clamps 31 protects the surface of the trunk and avoids direct clamping of the trunk surface for a long time, which may cause damage to the trunk surface.

[0024] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, six second rotating connectors 64 are fixedly connected to the surface of the fixed ring 5. Hydraulic push rods 65 are rotatably connected to the second rotating connectors 64. A connecting rod 66 is rotatably connected to the extended end of the hydraulic push rods 65.

[0025] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, the six first rotating connectors 61 and the second rotating connectors 64 are arranged in a circular array, so that the six arc-shaped support rods 63 also form a ring, providing multi-directional support for the fruit tree branches. The end of the connecting rod 66 away from the extended end of the hydraulic jack 65 is fixedly connected to the extension rod 62. According to the growth of the fruit tree, the angle and height of the extension rod 62 are adjusted. When adjusting, the hydraulic jack 65 is activated. When the extended end of the hydraulic jack 65 extends, it pushes the connecting rod 66 to move upward, so that the connecting rod 66 pushes the extension rod 62 to rotate upward through the first rotating connector 61. As the extension rod 62 continues to rotate upward, the height of the arc-shaped support rods 63 also gradually increases. When the extended end of the hydraulic jack 65 shortens, the extension rod 62 rotates in the opposite direction. The distance and height between several arc-shaped support rods 63 can be adjusted according to the growth of the fruit tree branches, effectively improving the uniformity and stability of the support provided by the arc-shaped support rods 63 to the branches.

[0026] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, several limiting sleeves 4 correspond to the positions of the through holes 33 and are fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the through holes 33. The limiting sleeves 4 and the fixing rods 2 are arranged in a circular array. The fixing rods 2 pass through and are movably connected to the inner cavity of the limiting sleeves 4. The limiting sleeves 4 are provided with limiting bolts 7, which can adjust the height of the support base 3 according to the height of the branches. First, according to the specific height of the branches, adjust the height of the two arc-shaped clamps 31 on the surface of the fixing rods 2. After adjusting to a suitable height, rotate the limiting bolts 7 on the surface of the limiting sleeves 4 to fix the position of the limiting sleeves 4, thereby fixing the height of the adjustable support base 3. This allows the support device to be used for various types of fruit trees, effectively increasing the applicability of the device.

[0027] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, both ends of the arc-shaped clamping ring 31 are fixedly connected to connecting blocks 34. A connecting hole 35 is opened in the middle of the connecting block 34. A connector is provided in the inner cavity of the connecting hole 35. After the height of the arc-shaped clamping ring 31 is adjusted, the distance between the two arc-shaped clamping rings 31 is adjusted according to the thickness of the tree trunk so that the two arc-shaped clamping rings 31 are fitted onto the surface of the tree trunk. The connector is passed through the inner cavity of the connecting hole 35 opened on the two adjacent connecting blocks 34, so that the adjusting support 3 is fixed on the surface of the tree trunk. The structure of the support base 1 is the same as the structure of the adjusting support 3. When the adjusting support 3 is adjusted, the support base 1 is also adjusted accordingly, thereby increasing the overall stability of the support device through the support base 1.

[0028] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: First, the device is fitted onto the tree trunk surface via a support base 1 and an adjusting support 3. The support base 1 is located on the ground. Based on the specific height of the branches, the height of the two arc-shaped clamping rings 31 on the surface of the fixing rod 2 is adjusted. After adjusting to a suitable height, the limiting bolt 7 on the surface of the limiting sleeve 4 is rotated to fix the position of the limiting sleeve 4, thus fixing the height of the adjusting support 3. Simultaneously, based on the thickness of the tree trunk, the distance between the two arc-shaped clamping rings 31 is adjusted so that the two arc-shaped clamping rings 31 fit onto the tree trunk surface. Next, the connecting piece passes through the inner cavity of the connecting hole 35 opened on two adjacent connecting blocks 34, thus fixing the adjusting support 3 onto the tree trunk surface. While the adjusting support 3 is being adjusted, the support base 1 is also adjusted accordingly. The support base 1 increases the overall stability of the support device, making the support device suitable for various types of fruit trees. Based on the growth of the fruit tree, the hydraulic jack 65 is activated. The extension and retraction of the extended end of the hydraulic jack 65 controls the angle and height of the extension rod 62. When the extended end of the hydraulic jack 65 extends and retracts, it drives the connecting rod 66 to rotate. When the connecting rod 66 rotates, it drives the extension rod 62 to rotate up and down through the first rotating connector 61. While the angle is adjusted by the up and down rotation of the extension rod 62, the arc-shaped support rod 63 can be moved up and down. This allows the device to adjust the distance and height between several arc-shaped support rods 63 according to the growth of the fruit tree branches. The six arc-shaped support rods 63 form a ring of appropriate size to support the branches, effectively improving the uniformity and stability of the support provided by the arc-shaped support rods 63. While the device is fixed to the surface of the tree trunk, the surface of the tree trunk is protected by the soft pad 32 to avoid prolonged direct clamping of the tree trunk surface, which could cause damage to the tree trunk surface.
