Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of firewood bundlers, specifically a manual / automatic firewood bundler. Background Technology
[0002] In the vast rural areas, the autumn harvest season is not only a time of abundant crop yields but also a crucial period for farmers to carefully manage their trees. After the harvest, farmers often need to prune the trees in their orchards or woodlands to promote healthy growth and better fruit yields for the following year. However, dealing with the large number of branches generated after pruning has become a major challenge for farmers. Traditionally, farmers bind the pruned branches by hand, a process that is not only physically demanding but also extremely inefficient, especially when dealing with large quantities of branches.
[0003] More seriously, farmers are easily injured during the manual binding process due to improper handling or the sharp edges of branches. This not only increases labor costs but may also have long-term effects on farmers' health. At the same time, the quality of manual binding is difficult to guarantee; branches that are not securely bound are prone to scattering during transportation or storage, resulting in resource waste and environmental hygiene problems.
[0004] To effectively solve the above problems, it is particularly urgent to design and promote a device specifically for farmers to tie tree branches. Utility Model Content
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a manual / automatic firewood bundler, comprising a support structure, wherein a binding structure is installed inside the support structure, and the binding structure includes a pull rod, wherein a limit block is slidably connected to the surface of the pull rod.
[0006] Preferably, the support structure includes a fixed plate, an opening on one side of the fixed plate, a roller rotatably connected inside the opening, a support plate fixedly connected to the top of the fixed plate, a handle fixedly connected to the top of the support plate, ratchet teeth rotatably connected to the inner wall of the support plate, a rotating shaft rotatably connected to the middle section of the support plate, a ratchet wheel fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft, and a binding rope wound and fixedly attached to the surface of the rotating shaft.
[0007] Preferably, a rope hook is fixed to the other side of the surface of the fixing plate, and the rope passes through the opening on one side of the surface of the fixing plate and hangs on the surface of the rope hook.
[0008] Preferably, the pull rod is fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating shaft, and one end of the rotating shaft passes through the support plate and is fixedly connected to a crank handle.
[0009] Preferably, the roller is in close contact with the surface of the binding rope.
[0010] Preferably, the pull rod is located outside the ratchet, the limiting block is located above the ratchet, and the ratchet teeth mesh with the ratchet.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0012] This utility model proposes a manual and automatic firewood binding device. The binding device has two binding methods: the binding rope can be tightened by manually turning the lever back and forth, or the binding rope can be tightened by turning the crank. It is flexible and convenient to operate, which greatly reduces the labor intensity of farmers, improves the overall binding efficiency, and reduces the risk of injury caused by manual operation.

[0017] To more clearly illustrate the overall concept of this utility model, a detailed description will be provided below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0018] Please see Figures 1 to 2 This utility model provides a technical solution: a manual and automatic firewood bundler, including a support structure 1, a binding structure 2 installed inside the support structure 1, the binding structure 2 including a pull rod 21, and a limit block 22 slidably connected to the surface of the pull rod 21.
[0019] The firewood bundler has two binding methods: the rope 19 can be tightened by manually turning the lever 21 back and forth, or by turning the handle 23. It is flexible and convenient to operate, which greatly reduces the labor intensity of farmers, improves the overall binding efficiency, and reduces the risk of injury caused by manual operation.
[0020] The support structure 1 includes a fixed plate 11, an opening on one side of the fixed plate 11, a roller 12 rotatably connected inside the opening, a support plate 13 fixedly connected to the top of the fixed plate 11, a handle 14 fixedly connected to the top of the support plate 13, a ratchet 15 rotatably connected to the inner wall of the support plate 13, a rotating shaft 16 rotatably connected to the middle section of the support plate 13, a ratchet 17 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft 16, and a binding rope 19 wrapped and fixedly attached to the surface of the rotating shaft 16.
[0021] A rope hook 18 is fixed on the other side of the surface of the fixing plate 11. The rope 19 passes through the opening on one side of the surface of the fixing plate 11 and hangs on the surface of the rope hook 18.
[0022] The pull rod 21 is fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating shaft 16, and one end of the rotating shaft 16 passes through the support plate 13 and is fixedly connected to the handle 23.
[0023] The roller 12 is in close contact with the surface of the binding rope 19;
[0024] The lever 21 is located outside the ratchet 17, the limit block 22 is located above the ratchet 17, and the ratchet 15 meshes with the ratchet 17.
[0025] When using the product, remove the binding rope 19 from the binding rope hook 18 and place it on the ground. Place the firewood to be bound above the binding rope 19. Then, wrap the binding rope 19 around the firewood and re-hook it at the binding rope hook 18. Hold the handle 14 with one hand and the lever 21 with the other hand and swing it back and forth. When the lever 21 swings forward, it will cause the limit block 22 to swing synchronously. At this time, the limit block 22 and the ratchet 15 will not limit the ratchet 17. When it rotates backward, the limit block 22 and the ratchet 15 will lock the ratchet 17. At this time, the ratchet 17 will drive the rotating shaft 16 to rotate synchronously. The repeated swinging behavior can wrap and tighten the binding rope 19. At this time, the external rope can be used to bind and fix the tightened firewood. Then, loosen the binding rope 19 and proceed with the binding of the next set of firewood.
[0026] The roller 12 serves to reduce friction, thereby reducing the resistance when the rope 19 is pulled.
[0027] When it is necessary to loosen the rope 19, the limit block 22 and ratchet 15 can be lifted upwards to prevent them from contacting the ratchet 17. At this time, the rope 19 can be pulled outwards.
[0028] When binding, one hand can hold the handle 14 and the other hand can hold the crank handle 23 to rotate. When the crank handle 23 rotates, it will drive the rotating shaft 16 to rotate synchronously. The rotating shaft 16 drives the ratchet 17 to rotate, thereby completing the winding and tightening of the binding rope 19.
[0029] Those skilled in the art should understand that the discussion of any of the above embodiments is merely exemplary and is not intended to imply that the scope of the present invention includes the claims being limited to these examples; within the framework of the present invention, the technical features of the above embodiments or different embodiments can also be combined, the steps can be implemented in any order, and there are many other variations of the different aspects of the present invention as described above, which are not provided in the details for the sake of brevity.
[0030] This utility model is intended to cover all such substitutions, modifications, and variations that fall within the broad scope of the appended claims. Therefore, any omissions, 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.
