Detailed Implementation

[0012] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort in accordance with the embodiments of the basic utility model are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0013] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 A tree branch pruning device with clamping function includes a telescopic rod 3, with a cutting unit 6 for cutting branches at its upper end and an adjustment unit 1 at its lower handle position. The cutting unit 6 can be controlled to cut branches by adjusting the adjustment unit 1. The clamping unit 5 is connected to the upper end of the swing arm 2. The lower end of the swing arm 2 is rotatably connected to a preset position on the telescopic rod 3. A tension spring 4 is provided between the preset position on the swing arm 2 and the preset position on the telescopic rod 3. The clamping unit 5 and the shearing unit 6 are brought closer together by the tension spring 4.

[0014] In a specific embodiment, the clamping unit 5 includes a U-shaped bracket 505, within which a V-shaped block 503 is axially movably disposed. A thrust elastic element 504 is connected between the inner bottom surface of the U-shaped bracket 505 and the bottom surface of the V-shaped block 503. The thrust elastic element 504 provides axial thrust to ensure that the V-shaped block 503 moves stably within the U-shaped bracket 505 and can adapt to the diameter of the tree branch. The two free ends of the U-shaped bracket 505 are rotatably connected to one end of a pull rod 501. A tension spring 502 connects the preset position on the U-shaped bracket 505 to the corresponding preset position on each pull rod 501. The tension spring 502 provides elastic holding force, causing the two pull rods 501 to rotate synchronously towards the inside of the U-shaped bracket 505. The two pull rods 501, together with the V-shaped block 503, can clamp and fix the branches from different directions, which not only prevents the branches from shaking during the cutting process and facilitates the precise cutting of the cutting unit 6, but also effectively isolates the cutting unit 6 from the wire when working near the wire, preventing accidental contact with the wire.

[0015] In a specific embodiment, the adjustment unit 1 includes a roller 102 and a motor 101 mounted on the telescopic rod 3. The roller 102 is rotatably disposed inside the telescopic rod 3. The output end of the motor 101 is coaxially connected to the roller 102. A preset position on the roller 102 is connected to one end of a metal wire 103. The other end of the metal wire 103 is connected to the shearing unit 6. The motor 101 drives the roller 102 to rotate, so that the metal wire 103 is wound around the roller 102, thereby controlling the shearing unit 6 to shear the branches.

[0016] In a specific embodiment, the shearing unit 6 includes a bearing part 603 disposed at the end of the telescopic rod 3 and two shearing blades 601. The two shearing blades 601 are distributed in a cross shape. A rotating shaft 602 disposed in the bearing part 603 passes through the shaft hole at the intersection of the two shearing blades 601, so that the two shearing blades 601 can rotate relative to each other around the rotating shaft 602, thereby realizing the shearing action. A spreading spring 605 is connected between the ends of the two shearing blades 601 away from the shearing edge. In the natural state, the elastic force of the spreading spring 605 can keep the shearing edge of the two shearing blades 601 in an open state. The ends of the two shearing blades 601 away from the shearing edge are respectively connected to the metal wire 103. When the metal wire 103 is wound up by the adjusting unit 1, the two shearing blades 601 can be pulled to overcome the elastic force of the spreading spring 605 and move closer to each other, so that the shearing edge closes to complete the shearing. When the metal wire 103 is released, the shearing edge automatically returns to open under the action of the spreading spring 605, waiting for the next shearing.

[0017] In a specific embodiment, a guide roller 604 is rotatably disposed inside the bearing part 603, and the metal wire 103 is wound around the guide roller 604, which can guide the metal wire 103.

[0018] In a specific embodiment, the distance from the connection point of the swing arm 2 and the telescopic rod 3 to the shearing unit 6 is less than the length of the swing arm. This design allows the clamping unit 5 to pre-clamp the branches, thereby facilitating the subsequent shearing by the shearing unit 6.

[0019] In a specific embodiment, the telescopic rod 3 is provided with a fluorocarbon insulating and weather-resistant coating on its outer layer, the clamping unit 5 is provided with a wear-resistant modified acrylic insulating coating on its surface, and the shearing unit 6 is provided with a high-density alumina ceramic coating on its surface. Through the above-mentioned targeted coating design, the device’s key conductive risk components are fully covered, and a continuous insulating protective barrier is constructed from the material surface level, effectively blocking the current conduction path and meeting the electric shock prevention requirements for working near power lines.

[0020] Working principle: Adjust the telescopic rod 3 to a suitable length according to the actual needs such as working height and branch distance. With the help of the swing arm 2, align the clamping unit 5 with the position of the branch to be clamped. After pushing the clamping unit 5, the branch pushes the pull rod 501 to open the pull rod 501. At this time, the tension spring 502 is compressed. When the branch comes into contact with the V-block 503, it pushes the V-block 503 to move, compressing the thrust elastic element 504. After the branch passes through the pull rod 501, the pull rod 501 and the V-block 503 cooperate to hug and clamp the branch. The branches on the branch also play an axial limiting role, making the clamping more stable. The telescopic rod 3 can be moved to move the entire branch away from the power line. The cutting unit 6 can be moved along the branch axis to the predetermined cutting position. At this time, the clamping unit 5 remains in the original clamping position, the tension spring 4 extends, and the cutting unit 6 can be controlled by the adjustment unit 1 to cut the branch. This design makes cutting branches more precise and safer.

[0021] 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.
