Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bonsai cultivation tools, specifically a device that facilitates root cutting of bonsai seedlings. Background Technology

[0002] Bonsai cultivation is a delicate art that requires specialized tools to assist in pruning, shaping, and maintenance. Choosing the right tools during the cultivation of bonsai seedlings can make the process smoother and provide more meticulous care for the plants.

[0003] An investigation revealed a Chinese utility model patent (publication number: CN211509924U) disclosing a device for pruning the roots of bonsai seedlings. The device includes a blade and a handle. The blade is shaped like an isosceles triangle, with sliding verniers on two equal sides. The handle is fixedly positioned outside the third side of the isosceles triangle blade. This utility model's device for pruning the roots of bonsai seedlings uses an isosceles triangle blade with a 20-degree apex angle, allowing for easy insertion into the soil to sever the roots. The verniers on the two sides determine the pruning depth, enabling precise root pruning for different plants at different stages. This utility model ensures uniform root cuts during the pruning process, allowing the pruning depth to be determined according to the type and size of the seedling, thus promoting healthy root growth, forming tree-like roots, and ultimately resulting in vigorous seedling growth.

[0004] Although the aforementioned patent improves the stability and efficiency of the tool when cutting roots by setting up specific shaped blades, verniers and other components, and by cooperating with each component, and improves the accuracy of cutting by using a vernier ruler, in the process of cutting bonsai seedlings, bonsai seedlings often have some branches. When the blade is inserted into the seedling to cut, there may be a phenomenon of accidentally damaging the outer skin of other branches, which is very detrimental to improving the cultivation effect of bonsai seedlings.

[0005] Therefore, this utility model provides a device for pruning the roots of bonsai seedlings to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[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] This utility model provides a device that facilitates root cutting of bonsai seedlings, such as... Figures 1-4 As shown, the device for cutting the roots of bonsai seedlings includes a rotating shaft 1, a shearing blade 2 rotatably connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft 1, and an expansion component disposed inside the shearing blade 2.

[0027] The expansion assembly includes a through groove 3 inside one of the shear blades 2. A round shaft 4 is fixedly connected to the inner bottom end of the through groove 3. An expansion rod 5 is rotatably sleeved on the outer wall of the round shaft 4. A tension spring 6 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the expansion rod 5. Follower belts 7 are fixedly connected to the ends of the two tension springs 6.

[0028] The expansion assembly also includes a protective cover 8 that snaps into the inner wall of the through groove 3. The inner wall of the protective cover 8 has a sliding groove 9, and a push rod 10 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the sliding groove 9.

[0029] The inner bottom end of the push rod 10 is fixedly connected to the locking rod 12 by the locking spring 11, and the inner bottom end of the through groove 3 is provided with locking holes 13 corresponding to the locking rod 12. There are several locking holes 13.

[0030] Specifically, the rotating shaft 1 allows the two shearing blades 2 to rotate on its outer wall, thereby cutting the roots of the bonsai seedlings with shearing force, ensuring the stability and efficiency of the cutting. The expansion component increases the speed of soil penetration and allows the branches of the bonsai seedlings to be separated by adjusting the expansion angle of the two expansion rods 5, preventing accidental damage to the branches during root cutting. The sliding push rod 10 can slide within the groove 9 on the protective cover 8, and the sliding of the push rod 10 drives the displacement of the follower belt 7, which is abutted against its side wall. Since tension springs 6 are fixedly connected to both sides of the follower belt 7, and the tension... The end of the tension spring 6 is connected to the end of the expansion rod 5. Therefore, when the push rod 10 is displaced, it will drive the two expansion rods 5 to adjust their angle on the outer wall of the round shaft 4. Through the setting of the push rod 10, the snap-fit ​​spring 11 and the snap-fit ​​rod 12, and with the multiple snap-fit ​​holes 13 opened at the bottom of the through groove 3, after the angle of the expansion rod 5 is adjusted, the snap-fit ​​rod 12 and the snap-fit ​​hole 13 can be used to ensure the stability of the expansion rod 5 when cutting roots, so that the bonsai branches will not be scratched during the root cutting process of the shearing blade 2. This component has a simple structure and strong practicality. It can improve the root cutting efficiency while avoiding accidental damage to the branches, thereby improving the growth effect of the bonsai seedlings.

[0031] A handle 14 is fixedly connected to the end of the shearing blade 2. A strong magnetic rod 15 is slidably connected to the bottom of one handle 14, and a magnetic block 16 is fixedly connected to the top of the other handle 14 at the position corresponding to the strong magnetic rod 15.

[0032] The inner wall of the shearing blade 2 is provided with a clamping groove 17, and a rubber ring 18 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the clamping groove 17.

[0033] The upper top of the grip 14 has anti-slip texture 19, and there are multiple anti-slip textures 19.

[0034] Specifically, the handle 14 facilitates the operator's grip on the device, ensuring stability during the cutting process. A strong magnetic rod 15 sliding at the bottom of one handle 14 works in conjunction with a magnetic block 16 fixed at the top of the other handle 14. When the two handles 14 are reset, the strong magnetic rod 15 is attracted by the magnetic force of the magnetic block 16 and thus adhered to its outer wall. This adhesion allows the two handles 14 to be stored, improving stability during transport. The rubber ring 18 on the inner wall of the shearing blade 2 allows the cut rootstock to be gripped after root cutting, removing it from the planting pot. This enables one-handed operation, improving efficiency. Multiple anti-slip grooves 19 on the top of the handle 14 enhance grip, preventing the shearing blade 2 from slipping out of the operator's hand during the cutting process.

[0035] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
