Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of rake technology, and in particular relates to a folding rake. Background Technology

[0002] A rake is a common agricultural implement used in horticulture, agriculture, and lawn management, and is widely used for soil treatment, weeding, leveling, and maintenance. Its basic structure typically consists of a handle and multiple rake teeth (iron or steel), suitable for manual operation. Based on different functions, rakes can be classified into types such as leveling rakes, weeding rakes, garden rakes, and lawn rakes.

[0003] Rakes function far beyond simply loosening soil and clearing weeds; they also help improve soil structure, promote soil aeration, increase water permeability, and reduce soil erosion. Each type of rake is designed for a specific application, helping farmers and gardening enthusiasts manage their land more efficiently. Choosing the right rake can make farming and gardening much more effective.

[0004] However, traditional rakes have some shortcomings in terms of packaging and storage. Due to their fixed structure, the handle and rake teeth usually cannot be folded, resulting in large packaging volume and occupying a lot of storage space. To solve this problem, this application designs a folding rake, which aims to reduce packaging volume and lower storage frame through an innovative folding structure. Utility Model Content

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. 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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0020] Example

[0021] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 This utility model provides a technical solution: a folding rake, including a rake rod 1, a rake head 2 at one end of the rake rod 1, the rake rod 1 and the rake head 2 being movably connected, the rake rod 1 being fitted with a first sleeve 6 and a second sleeve 7, specifically, the first sleeve 6 and the second sleeve 7 are slidably connected to the rake rod 1, the top surfaces of the first sleeve 6 and the second sleeve 7 are jointly provided with a retaining plate 12, the bottom surface of the retaining plate 12 is provided with a U-shaped retaining groove 13, the U-shaped retaining groove 13 is engaged with the top surfaces of the first sleeve 6 and the second sleeve 7, the bottom surface of the rake rod 1 is provided with a limiting bolt 5, the limiting bolt 5 passes through the retaining plate 12, the side walls of the first sleeve 6 and the second sleeve 7 are respectively provided with a first connecting rod 9 and a second connecting rod 11 between the side walls of the first sleeve 6 and the second sleeve 7 and the rake head 2 on both sides of the rake rod 1, the two ends of the first connecting rod 9 and the second connecting rod 11 are respectively movably connected to the rake rod 1 and the rake head 2;

[0022] A protrusion 3 is provided on one side of the rake head 2, and a groove 4 is provided at one end of the rake rod 1. The groove 4 is fitted onto the protrusion 3, and the groove 4 and the protrusion 3 are movably connected by bolts. The first connecting rod 9 and the second connecting rod 11 are both movably connected to the rake head 2 by bolts. The side wall of the first sleeve 6 is provided with a first hinge support 8, and the first connecting rod 9 is movably connected to the first hinge support 8 by bolts. The side wall of the second sleeve 7 is provided with a second hinge support 10, and the second connecting rod 11 is movably connected to the second hinge support 10 by bolts.

[0023] In this embodiment, when the first sleeve 6 and the second sleeve 7 come into contact with each other and are secured by the U-shaped groove 13 on the clamping plate 12, the limiting bolt 5 is then inserted from the bottom of the rake rod 1 and extends to the top of the clamping plate 12. The nut is then tightened. At this point, the rake is in its normal operating state. Figure 1 ;
