[0025] 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.
[0026] like Figure 1-7 As shown, the present invention provides an easy-to-install tree pit cover assembly, which includes a first fixed plate 1, a second fixed plate 2, a first adjusting plate 3, a second adjusting plate 4, at least two horizontal sliding plates 5 and at least two vertical sliding plates 6.
[0027] The second fixed plate 2 is connected to the first fixed plate 1. Preferably, the second fixed plate 2 and the first fixed plate 1 are integrally formed and vertically connected.
[0028] The first adjusting plate 3 is slidably disposed within the first fixed plate 1. It should be understood that one end of the first adjusting plate 3 is slidably disposed on the first fixed plate 1.
[0029] The second adjusting plate 4 is slidably disposed within the second fixed plate 2. It should be understood that one end of the second adjusting plate 4 is slidably disposed on the second fixed plate 2, while the other end of the second adjusting plate 4 is slidably connected to the other end of the first adjusting plate 3.
[0030] It can be understood that the first fixed plate 1, the second fixed plate 2, the first adjusting plate 3, and the second adjusting plate 4 together form the outer frame structure of the cover plate. Since the first adjusting plate 3 can slide in the first fixed plate 1 and the second adjusting plate 4 can slide in the second fixed plate 2, the size of the outer frame of the cover plate can be adjusted, thus adapting to some specific large or small tree pits, making it more flexible to use.
[0031] At least two horizontal sliding plates 5 are slidably connected to the first fixed plate 1 and the second adjusting plate 4. It should be understood that the two ends of the horizontal sliding plates 5 are slidably set on the first fixed plate 1 and the second adjusting plate 4.
[0032] At least two vertical sliding plates 6 are slidably connected to the second fixed plate 2 and the first adjusting plate 3. It should be understood that the two ends of the vertical sliding plates 6 are slidably set on the second fixed plate 2 and the first adjusting plate 3.
[0033] It is understandable that by sliding the horizontal slide plate 5 or the vertical slide plate 6 within the outer frame of the cover plate (that is, the outer frame composed of the first fixed plate 1, the second fixed plate 2, the first adjusting plate 3, and the second adjusting plate 4), the tree trunk in the tree pit can be positioned and clamped. The horizontal slide plate 5 and the vertical slide plate 6 are also relatively simple and quick to adjust, so that trees growing crookedly in the tree pit can also be positioned and clamped.
[0034] In this embodiment, the horizontal sliding plate 5 and / or the vertical sliding plate 6 are formed with positioning grooves 7 for receiving and positioning the tree trunk. It should be understood that because the horizontal sliding plate 5 and the vertical sliding plate 6 are slidably arranged, the positioning grooves 7 are relatively easy to install and clamp into the tree trunk.
[0035] In this embodiment, the first fixed plate 1 has a first sliding groove 11 along its length, one end of the first adjusting plate 3 is slidably disposed in the first sliding groove 11, the second fixed plate 2 has a second sliding groove 21 along its length, one end of the second adjusting plate 4 is slidably disposed in the second sliding groove 21, and the other end of the first adjusting plate 3 is slidably connected to the other end of the second adjusting plate 4. It is worth noting that the slidable connection between the other end of the first adjusting plate 3 and the other end of the second adjusting plate 4 means that the size of the cover plate outer frame (that is, the outer frame composed of the first fixed plate 1, the second fixed plate 2, the first adjusting plate 3, and the second adjusting plate 4) can be changed by sliding the other end of the first adjusting plate 3 or the other end of the second adjusting plate 4.
[0036] Furthermore, the first adjusting plate 3 has a third sliding groove 31 along its length. One end of at least two vertical sliding plates 6 slides in the second sliding groove 21, and the other end of at least two vertical sliding plates 6 slides in the third sliding groove 31. The second adjusting plate 4 has a fourth sliding groove 41 along its length. One end of at least two horizontal sliding plates 5 slides in the first sliding groove 11, and the other end of at least two horizontal sliding plates 5 slides in the fourth sliding groove 41. It should be understood that the position of the tree trunk in each tree pit may be different. In this case, the tree trunk in each tree pit can be positioned specifically by sliding the horizontal sliding plates 5 and the vertical sliding plates 6.
[0037] Preferably, at least two vertical slide plates 6 are provided with a fifth groove 61 along their length, and at least two horizontal slide plates 5 slide in the fifth groove 61. That is, the horizontal slide plates 5 slide within the vertical slide plates 6. Of course, the horizontal slide plates 5 can also have grooves and allow the vertical slide plates to slide within the horizontal slide plates.
[0038] In this embodiment, at least two horizontal sliding plates 5 include a first horizontal sliding plate 51 and a second horizontal sliding plate 52. The first horizontal sliding plate 51 extends towards the side of the second horizontal sliding plate 52 and has a first extension 511 with a first clamping groove 71. The second horizontal sliding plate 52 extends towards the side of the first horizontal sliding plate 51 and has a second extension 521 with a second clamping groove 72. The first clamping groove 71 and the second clamping groove 72 form a positioning clamping groove 7. It should be understood that since the trees in the tree pit are of different sizes, the distance between the first horizontal sliding plate 51 and the second horizontal sliding plate 52 can be adjusted as needed to make the size of the positioning clamping groove 7 adapt to the diameter of the tree trunk.
[0039] In this embodiment, the easy-to-install tree pit cover assembly also includes multiple locking structures 8 for locking the first adjusting plate 3, the second adjusting plate 4, the horizontal sliding plate 5, and the vertical sliding plate 6 in place. That is, the first adjusting plate 3, the second adjusting plate 4, the horizontal sliding plate 5, and the vertical sliding plate 6 can be locked in place by the locking structures 8 and cannot slide.
[0040] It is understandable that after the first adjusting plate 3, the second adjusting plate 4, the horizontal sliding plate 5, and the vertical sliding plate 6 have all slid to the appropriate positions, the locking structure 8 can be used to position one end of the first adjusting plate 3 at the first fixed plate 1, and one end of the second adjusting plate 4 at the second fixed plate 2. Then, the other ends of the first adjusting plate 3 and the other ends of the second adjusting plate 4 are locked, thus fixing the size of the outer frame of the cover plate. Then, the two ends of the horizontal sliding plate 5 are positioned on the first fixed plate 1 and the second adjusting plate 4 respectively, and the two ends of the vertical sliding plate 6 are positioned on the second fixed plate 2 and the first adjusting plate 3 respectively. Thus, the tree trunk in the tree pit can also be positioned by the horizontal sliding plate 5 and the vertical sliding plate 6.
[0041] Preferably, the first slide groove 11 penetrates the top and bottom surfaces of the first fixed plate 1, the second slide groove 21 penetrates the top and bottom surfaces of the second fixed plate 2, the third slide groove 31 penetrates the top and bottom surfaces of the first adjusting plate 3, and the fourth slide groove 41 penetrates the top and bottom surfaces of the second adjusting plate 4. The locking structure 8 is installed in the first slide groove 11, the second slide groove 21, the third slide groove 31, and the fourth slide groove 41 to lock the first adjusting plate 3, the second adjusting plate 4, the horizontal slide plate 5, and the vertical slide plate 6.
[0042] Specifically, the locking structure 8 includes a locking rod 81, a first locking part 82, and a second locking part 83. The locking rod 81 passes through the first sliding groove 11, the second sliding groove 21, the third sliding groove 31, and the fourth sliding groove 41. The locking rod 81 has external threads along its length. The first locking part 82 is located at the top of the locking rod 81, and the second locking part 83 is threadedly connected to the external threads of the locking rod 81. It should be understood that the outer diameter of the locking rod 81 is smaller than the width of the slot, while the first locking part 82 is larger than the width of the slot so that the locking structure 8 will not pass through the slot. The second locking part 83 can be locked outside the slot. At the same time, since the second locking part 83 is threadedly connected to the locking rod 81, the first locking part 82 and the second locking part 83 can be locked together by rotating the second locking part 83 on the locking rod 81, so that the first locking part 82 and the second locking part 83 lock the first fixed plate 1, the second fixed plate 2, the first adjusting plate 3, the second adjusting plate 4, the horizontal sliding plate 5 and the vertical sliding plate 6, so that the first adjusting plate 3, the second adjusting plate 4, the horizontal sliding plate 5 and the vertical sliding plate 6 remain stationary relative to the first fixed plate 1 and the second fixed plate 2.
[0043] It should be understood that both ends of the horizontal slide plate 5 and the vertical slide plate 6 are provided with through holes, and the locking rod 81 is inserted into the through holes, the first slide groove 11, the second slide groove 21, the third slide groove 31 and the fourth slide groove 41, so as to lock the first fixed plate 1, the second fixed plate 2, the first adjusting plate 3, the second adjusting plate 4, the horizontal slide plate 5 and the vertical slide plate 6 through the first locking part 82 and the second locking part 83.
[0044] Specifically, when one end of the first adjusting plate 3 is to be fixed on the first fixed plate 1, one end of the first adjusting plate 3 is placed on the top or bottom surface of the first fixed plate 1, and then the locking rod 81 is passed through the first slot 11 and the third slot 31, so that the first locking part 82 and the second locking part 83 are locked outside the first slot 11 and the third slot 31. Then the second locking part 83 is rotated so that the first locking part 82 and the second locking part 83 can tightly press one end of the first adjusting plate 3 and the first fixed plate 1.
[0045] When one end of the second adjusting plate 4 is fixed on the second adjusting plate 4, place one end of the second adjusting plate 4 on the top or bottom surface of the second adjusting plate 4, and then pass the locking rod 81 through the second slot 21 and the fourth slot 41, so that the first locking part 82 and the second locking part 83 are locked outside the second slot 21 and the fourth slot 41. Then rotate the second locking part 83 so that the first locking part 82 and the second locking part 83 can tightly press one end of the second adjusting plate 4 and the second fixed plate 2.
[0046] When the horizontal slide plate 5 needs to be fixed on the first fixed plate 1 and the second adjusting plate 4, place one end of the horizontal slide plate 5 on the top or bottom surface of the first fixed plate 1 and place the other end of the horizontal slide plate 5 on the top or bottom surface of the second adjusting plate 4. Then, pass the locking rod 81 through the first slot 11 and the through hole at one end of the horizontal slide plate 5, so that the first locking part 82 and the second locking part 83 are locked outside the through hole at one end of the first slot 11 and the horizontal slide plate 5. Then, rotate the second locking part 83 so that the first locking part 82 and the second locking part 83 can tightly press one end of the horizontal slide plate 5 and the first fixed plate 1. Then, pass another locking rod 81 through the fourth slot 41 and the through hole at the other end of the horizontal slide plate 5, so that the first locking part 82 and the second locking part 83 are locked outside the through hole at the other end of the fourth slot 41 and the horizontal slide plate 5. Then, rotate the second locking part 83 so that the first locking part 82 and the second locking part 83 can tightly press the other end of the horizontal slide plate 5 and the second adjusting plate 4.
[0047] When the vertical slide plate 6 needs to be fixed on the second fixed plate 2 and the first adjusting plate 3, place one end of the vertical slide plate 6 on the top or bottom surface of the second fixed plate 2 and place the other end of the vertical slide plate 6 on the top or bottom surface of the first adjusting plate 3. Then, pass the locking rod 81 through the second slot 21 and the through hole at one end of the vertical slide plate 6, so that the first locking part 82 and the second locking part 83 are locked outside the through hole at one end of the second slot 21 and the vertical slide plate 6. Then, rotate the second locking part 83 so that the first locking part 82 and the second locking part 83 can tightly press the one end of the vertical slide plate 6 and the second fixed plate 2. Then, pass another locking rod 81 through the third slot 31 and the through hole at the other end of the vertical slide plate 6, so that the first locking part 82 and the second locking part 83 are locked outside the through hole at the other end of the third slot 31 and the vertical slide plate 6. Then, rotate the second locking part 83 so that the first locking part 82 and the second locking part 83 can tightly press the other end of the vertical slide plate 6 and the first adjusting plate 3.
[0048] The other end of the first adjusting plate 3 and the other end of the second adjusting plate 4 can also be locked using the same principle. For example, the locking rod 81 is inserted into the third slot 31 and the fourth slot 41, and the first locking part 82 and the second locking part 83 are locked outside the third slot 31 and the fourth slot 41 to lock the other end of the first adjusting plate 3 and the other end of the second adjusting plate 4.
[0049] Of course, in other embodiments, the transverse sidewall of the first fixed plate 1 is provided with a first transverse groove communicating with the first slot 11, and one end of the first adjusting plate 3 and one end of the horizontal sliding plate 5 can be inserted into the first transverse groove. The transverse sidewall of the second fixed plate 2 is provided with a first transverse groove communicating with the second slot 21, and one end of the second adjusting plate 4 and one end of the vertical sliding plate 6 can be inserted into the second transverse groove. The transverse sidewall of the vertical sliding plate 6 is also provided with a third transverse groove along its length direction, and the horizontal sliding plate 5 is inserted into the third transverse groove.
