Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of horticultural tools, and in particular to a device for pruning the stems and leaves of orchid mother plants. Background Technology

[0002] The stems and leaves of the orchid mother plant mainly refer to the mature pseudobulbs and healthy leaves growing on them in the clump-forming orchid plant. They are the core nutrient storage and supply parts of the entire plant. When the leaves turn completely yellow and dry, or when the old leaves at the bottom are only half left and have no luster, and feel brittle to the touch, these leaves can no longer perform photosynthesis, will consume nutrients from the mother plant, and may even become a carrier for the growth of pathogens. They need to be pruned.

[0003] For example, Chinese patent CN218302394U discloses a multi-functional orchid pruning tool, which includes a scissor body. The handle of the scissor body is detachably equipped with a length adjustment mechanism. The length adjustment mechanism includes a connector, an outer cylinder, an inner rod, and a middle cylinder. The middle cylinder is slidably disposed in the outer cylinder, and the inner rod is slidably disposed through the middle cylinder. The connector is disposed at the outer end of the inner rod and is detachably connected to the handle of the scissor body. The outer cylinder, the middle cylinder, and the inner rod are connected by a linkage component.

[0004] Existing pruning tools are mostly general-purpose scissors and pruning shears. When pruning orchid leaves, the resulting pruning debris usually falls directly into the potting soil, requiring manual cleaning by the pruner. If not cleaned, the fallen leaves in the potting soil can become a breeding ground for pathogens. In addition, general-purpose pruning tools do not have a hand guard design, which can easily cut hands or break healthy leaves. To address the above problems, a stem and leaf pruning device for orchid mother plants is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problems existing in the prior art, and to propose a device for pruning the stems and leaves of orchid mother plants.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a pruning device for orchid mother plant stems and leaves, comprising a pruning component, one end of which is provided with a debris collection component, the debris collection component comprising a transparent hand guard plate, a support frame, a fixed shaft, a semi-circular arc plate and a spring, a circular groove being formed on the inner edge of the transparent hand guard plate, one end of the support frame being slidably connected to the circular groove, the fixed shaft being fixedly installed on the support frame near the end of the transparent hand guard plate, two rotating plates being symmetrically rotatably connected to the top of the fixed shaft, and two connecting rods being symmetrically rotatably connected to the bottom of the fixed shaft, one end of the semi-circular arc plate being fixedly connected to one end of the rotating plate, and the other end of the semi-circular arc plate being fixedly connected to a support plate, a semi-circular collecting cloth I being adhered to the inner edge of the semi-circular arc plate, two collecting cloths II being provided on both sides of the support frame, and the outer edges of the rotating plate, the semi-circular arc plate and the support plate being fixedly connected to the edges of the collecting cloth II, one end of each of the two connecting rods being fixedly connected to the bottom of the semi-circular arc plate, and the other end of each of the two connecting rods being fixedly connected to a handle, with the spring disposed between the two handles.

[0007] Preferably, the two ends of the spring are fixed to the inner sides of the two grip bars respectively, and an assembly tube is fixedly connected to one side of the transparent hand guard plate near the top.

[0008] Preferably, a through hole is provided on one side of the transparent hand guard near the bottom, and a fixing bolt is threaded to the top of the assembly tube.

[0009] Preferably, the trimming assembly includes two upper trimming arms and a lower trimming arm, which are hinged together.

[0010] Preferably, one end of both the upper and lower shear arms is provided with an arc-shaped cutting edge, and the other end of both the upper and lower shear arms is engaged with a handle.

[0011] Preferably, the top of the upper shear arm has an assembly hole for insertion into the bottom end of the fixing bolt, and the upper and lower shear arms are fixedly connected to a rubber protrusion on the side near the arc-shaped cutting edge and facing each other.

[0012] Preferably, a silicone sleeve is adhered to the outside of the handle, and both the first and second collection cloths are located at the bottom of the arc-shaped blade edge. The thickness of the rotating plate, the semi-circular plate, and the support plate is 2-3 cm.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] 1. In this utility model, when pruning orchid leaves, the pruner holds two handles inward. The handles rotate the connecting rod while simultaneously squeezing the spring inward. At this time, the semi-circular plates open to both sides, positioning the orchid between the two semi-circular plates. The pruner releases the handles, which automatically return to their original position under the spring's elasticity, causing the two semi-circular plates to move inward. This allows collecting cloth one and collecting cloth two to form a collecting net located near the orchid's roots. By adding a debris collection component, the debris collection component can collect pruning debris in real time, preventing it from falling into the potting soil and reducing the breeding ground for pathogens. Furthermore, both collecting cloth one and collecting cloth two are made of nylon fabric, avoiding damage to the orchid and making them convenient and practical. The debris collection component can move up and down with the pruning position for easy use.

[0015] 2. In this utility model, by adding a transparent hand guard, the transparent hand guard will not hinder the trimming process, and can also prevent the hands from being scratched or the blades from being broken. The outside of the handle is wrapped with a silicone sleeve, which plays a role in anti-slip and improving comfort. Attached Figure Description

[0021] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0022] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed in the following specification.

[0023] Example 1: As Figure 1 - Figure 4 As shown, this utility model provides a pruning device for orchid mother plant stems and leaves, including a pruning component 1. One end of the pruning component 1 is provided with a debris collection component 2. The debris collection component 2 includes a transparent hand guard 21, a support frame 22, a fixed shaft 26, a semi-circular arc plate 28, and a spring 214. A circular groove 20 is formed on the inner edge of the transparent hand guard 21. One end of the support frame 22 is slidably connected to the circular groove 20. The fixed shaft 26 is fixedly installed on the support frame 22 near one end of the transparent hand guard 21. Two rotating plates 27 are symmetrically rotatably connected to the top of the fixed shaft 26, and two connecting rods 212 are symmetrically rotatably connected to the bottom of the fixed shaft 26. One end of the semi-circular arc plate 28 is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating plate 27. The rotating plate 27, the semi-circular plate 28, and the support plate 29 are fixedly connected to each other. A semi-circular collecting cloth 210 is glued to the inner edge of the semi-circular plate 28. A second collecting cloth 211 is provided on both sides of the support frame 22. The outer edges of the rotating plate 27, the semi-circular plate 28, and the support plate 29 are fixedly connected to the edge of the second collecting cloth 211. One end of the two connecting rods 212 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the semi-circular plate 28, and the other end of the two connecting rods 212 is fixedly connected to a handle 213. A spring 214 is provided between the two handles 213. The two ends of the spring 214 are fixed to the inner side of the two handles 213 respectively. The thickness of the rotating plate 27, the semi-circular plate 28, and the support plate 29 is 2-3 cm.

[0024] The specific settings and functions of this embodiment are described below: When pruning orchid leaves, the pruner first holds the handle 16 of the pruning component 1 with one hand and grips the two handles 213 inward with the other hand. The two handles 213 rotate the connecting rod 212 while simultaneously compressing the spring 214 inward. At this time, the two connecting rods 212 drive the semi-circular plate 28, the rotating plate 27, and the support plate 29 to rotate (the rotating plate 27, the semi-circular plate 28, and the support plate 29 are sequentially fixedly connected to form a whole, and rotate...). One end of plate 27 rotates around fixed shaft 26. The rotating plate 27, semi-circular plate 28, and support plate 29 deflect and open to both sides. At this time, the pruning personnel move the support frame 22 closer to the orchid, positioning the orchid between the two semi-circular plates 28. The pruning personnel release the grip 213, which automatically deflects back to its original position under the elastic force of the central spring 214, thereby causing the two rotating plates 27 to rotate inwards and move closer together. The rotating plates 27 on both sides, the semi-circular plates 28, and the support plate 29 all move inwards (as shown in the image). Figure 1 As shown, the two semi-circular plates 28 and the first collection cloth 210 are positioned on both sides of the orchid's root. The first collection cloth 210 and the second collection cloth 211 can form a collection net located near the orchid's root. To prevent the collected leaves from falling off, the thickness of the rotating plate 27, the semi-circular plates 28, and the support plate 29 can be set to 2-3 cm, and the thickness of the first collection cloth 210 and the second collection cloth 211 can be set to 0.5-1 cm. This makes it convenient for the collected leaves to fall into the pot during the removal of the pruning tool after pruning, and facilitates the cleaning of the collected leaves. By adding the debris collection component 2, when the pruning component 1 prunes the orchid leaves, the debris collection component 2 can collect the debris generated during pruning in real time, preventing debris from falling into the potting soil and reducing the carrier of pathogens. In addition, the first collection cloth 210 and the second collection cloth 211 are both made of nylon fabric, which avoids damage to the orchid and is convenient and practical. The debris collection component 2 can move up and down with the pruning position for easy use.

[0025] Example 2: Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, an assembly tube 23 is fixedly connected to one side of the transparent hand guard 21 near the top. A through hole 25 is opened through one side of the transparent hand guard 21 near the bottom. A fixing bolt 24 is threaded to the top of the assembly tube 23. The trimming assembly 1 includes two upper shear arms 11 and a lower shear arm 12. The upper shear arms 11 and the lower shear arms 12 are hinged. One end of the upper shear arms 11 and the lower shear arms 12 is provided with an arc-shaped cutting edge 13. The other end of the upper shear arms 11 and the lower shear arms 12 are both snapped with a handle 16. An assembly hole 14 is opened at the top of the upper shear arm 11 to be inserted into the bottom end of the fixing bolt 24. Rubber protrusions 15 are fixedly connected to the side of the upper shear arms 11 and the lower shear arms 12 near the arc-shaped cutting edge 13 and facing each other. A silicone sleeve 17 is glued to the outside of the handle 16. The first collection cloth 210 and the second collection cloth 211 are both located at the bottom of the arc-shaped cutting edge 13.

[0026] The overall effect of this embodiment is that when the pruning tool is pruning orchid leaves, the debris collection component 2 can be installed on the pruning component 1, the two handles 16 of the pruning component 1 can be removed, and the upper pruning arm 11 of the pruning component 1 can be passed through the assembly tube 23 while the lower pruning arm 12 is passed through the through hole 25. At this time, the assembly tube 23 and the upper pruning arm 11 can be fixed with the fixing bolt 24, and then the handles 16 can be reinstalled on the upper pruning arm 11 and the lower pruning arm 12, thereby quickly installing the debris collection component 2 onto the pruning component 1. During the pruning process, the transparent hand guard 21 can block the pruning personnel's hands from touching the leaves, preventing the hands from being scratched or broken. The handle 16 is wrapped with a silicone sleeve 17, which plays a role in anti-slip and improving comfort.

[0027] The usage and working principle of this device are as follows: When pruning orchid leaves, the pruner first holds the handle 16 of the pruning component 1 with one hand and grips the two levers 213 inward with the other hand. The two levers 213 rotate the connecting rod 212 while simultaneously compressing the spring 214 inward. At this time, the two connecting rods 212 rotate the semi-circular plate 28, the rotating plate 27, and the support plate 29. The rotating plate 27, the semi-circular plate 28, and the support plate 29 open to the sides. The pruner then moves the support frame 22 closer to the orchid, positioning the orchid between the two semi-circular plates 28. The pruner then releases the levers 213. Under the elastic force of the middle spring 214, 213 automatically deflects back to its original position, thereby driving the two rotating plates 27 to rotate inward and move closer to each other. The two rotating plates 27, the semi-circular plate 28 and the support plate 29 all move inward, so that the two semi-circular plates 28 and the first collection cloth 210 are located on both sides of the orchid root. The first collection cloth 210 and the second collection cloth 211 can form a collection net located near the orchid root. By adding the debris collection component 2, when the pruning component 1 prunes the orchid leaves, the debris collection component 2 can collect the debris generated by pruning in real time, preventing debris from falling into the potting soil and reducing the carrier of pathogens.

[0028] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any other way. Any person skilled in the art may make changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments for application in other fields. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the technical solution of the present utility model shall still fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
