Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of landscaping technology, specifically to a soil ball protection device for transplanting garden seedlings. Background Technology

[0002] During seedling transplantation, to protect the roots, existing seedlings are transplanted with a root ball intact, thus increasing the survival rate after transplanting. However, the root ball is easily damaged during transport before transplanting, causing it to detach and compromising root protection. Therefore, we address the issue of root ball detachment during the transplanting of seedlings with root balls. We provide a root ball protection device for transplanting garden seedlings. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model provides a soil ball protection device for transplanting garden seedlings.

[0004] This utility model discloses a soil ball protection device for transplanting garden seedlings, comprising:

[0005] A rigid protective component, comprising a base and a fixing ring, wherein the diameter of the base is smaller than the diameter of the fixing ring, and a plurality of support strips are installed between the base and the fixing ring, wherein the inner wall of the support strips forms a protective cavity adapted to the shape of the soil mound.

[0006] A support frame, wherein an assembly ring for mounting rigid protective components is provided in the center of the support frame.

[0007] In some embodiments, the support frame is mounted on the bottom of the rigid protective member via an assembly ring.

[0008] In some embodiments, the support frame is a regular polygonal shape that can be disassembled and spliced ​​together.

[0009] In some embodiments, the support frame is symmetrically provided with fitting grooves, the inner wall of the fitting groove is rotatably connected to a support frame, and the end of the support frame is provided with a limiting groove adapted to the diameter of the seedling. The support frame can be rotated to make the inner wall of the limiting groove contact the seedling.

[0010] It also includes locking components for securing the support frame after rotation and contact with the seedlings.

[0011] In some embodiments, the support frame includes a rotating rod, one end of which is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the fitting groove near the rigid protective member, and the other end of which is fixedly connected to a V-shaped frame, wherein the limiting groove is the included angle of the V-shaped frame.

[0012] The V-shaped frame has a hook-shaped part that bends downward at the end.

[0013] The locking element is a binding rope, which is used to bind the two V-shaped frames together with the seedlings.

[0014] In some embodiments, the area of ​​the support frame is larger than the maximum diameter of the seedling.

[0015] In some embodiments, the two mating grooves are formed on the same diagonal of the support frame.

[0016] In some embodiments, root holes are formed between the support bars of the rigid protective member, and a main root hole is provided on the base.

[0017] In some embodiments, the support frame is detachably connected to the rigid protective component;

[0018] In some embodiments, the support frame may be a tree grate, which is mounted on top of the rigid protective member via an assembly ring.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0020] 1. This utility model protects seedlings with soil clumps by placing them into a protective cavity, where rigid protective components safeguard the soil clumps. The support frame further stabilizes the rigid protective components during seedling transport. Because the support frame's area is larger than the seedling's maximum diameter, it prevents interference between adjacent seedlings when transporting irregularly shaped seedlings or seedlings with partial crowns.

[0021] 2. This utility model uses a support frame that can be disassembled and spliced ​​together as a regular polygonal square. In actual use, the stability of the device can be enhanced by splicing the support frames together. Furthermore, multiple devices are arranged in an orderly manner, and the area of ​​the support frame is larger than the maximum diameter of the seedling. This ensures that the seedlings in different devices do not interfere with each other, thereby achieving placement with minimal transfer space and effectively saving transfer space.

[0022] 3. In this utility model, after the seedling with soil ball is placed into the protective cavity of the rigid protective component, a rotating support frame limits the two sides of the seedling. Then, the rotating support frame is locked by a locking component to fix the relative position of the seedling and the device, so as to prevent the seedling from shaking and causing the soil ball to fall off.

[0023] 4. The root holes on the rigid protective component and the main root holes on the base of this utility model allow the rigid protective component to be directly planted in the soil pit; while the support frame, which is a tree grate, can also serve as a tree grate to protect the seedlings from soil erosion after transplanting. Furthermore, there is no need to recycle the device, thus avoiding the situation of low economic efficiency and waste during long-distance seedling transportation. Attached Figure Description

[0034] Example 1:

[0035] Please see Figure 1 The present invention relates to a soil ball protection device for transplanting garden seedlings, comprising:

[0036] The rigid protective component 3 includes a base 31 and a fixing ring 33. The diameter of the base 31 is smaller than the diameter of the fixing ring 33. A plurality of support bars 32 are installed between the base 31 and the fixing ring 33. The inner wall of the support bars 32 forms a protective cavity that is adapted to the shape of the soil mound 2.

[0037] The support frame 4 has an assembly ring 44 in the center for installing the rigid protective component 3.

[0038] The support frame 4 is mounted on the bottom of the rigid protective component 3 via an assembly ring 44.

[0039] Furthermore, the area of ​​the support frame 4 is larger than the maximum diameter of the seedling 1.

[0040] Working principle:

[0041] In this embodiment, by placing the seedling 1 with its soil clod 2 into the protective cavity, the soil clod 2 on the seedling 1 can be protected by the rigid protective component 3. Then, the support frame 4 makes the rigid protective component 3 more stable during the transfer of the seedling 1. Because the area of ​​the support frame 4 is larger than the maximum diameter of the seedling 1, interference between adjacent seedlings 1 is avoided when transporting irregularly shaped seedlings 1 or seedlings 1 with partial crowns.

[0042] Furthermore, the soil ball protection device used for transplanting garden seedlings may also include a soft protective component, which may be a protective straw rope or a protective bag, etc.

[0043] In practical use, the soft protective bag can be placed in the protective cavity, and then the seedling 1 with the soil ball 2 can be placed on the soft protective material and the soil ball 2 can be protected by the conventional soft protective material; or the soil ball 2 can be simply protected by the soft protective material first, and then placed into the protective cavity for further protection.

[0044] Furthermore, the support frame 4 is a regular polygonal shape that can be disassembled and spliced ​​together.

[0045] In practical use, the stability of the device can be enhanced by splicing the support frames 4 together; and multiple devices can be arranged in an orderly manner, with the area of ​​the support frame 4 being larger than the maximum diameter of the seedling 1. This ensures that the seedlings 1 in different devices do not interfere with each other, thereby achieving placement with minimal transfer space and effectively saving transfer space.

[0046] Example 2:

[0047] Please see Figures 2-4 As a further improvement to Embodiment 1, unlike Embodiment 1, the support frame 4 is symmetrically provided with fitting grooves 41, and the inner wall of the fitting groove 41 is rotatably connected to a support frame 42. The end of the support frame 42 is provided with a limiting groove 43 that is adapted to the diameter of the seedling 1. The support frame 42 can be rotated to make the inner wall of the limiting groove 43 contact the seedling 1.

[0048] It also includes a locking element 5 for fixing the support frame 42 after rotation and contact with the seedling 1.

[0049] The support frame 42 includes a rotating rod 421. The end of the rotating rod 421 near the rigid protective member 3 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the fitting groove 41, and the end of the rotating rod 421 away from the rigid protective member 3 is fixedly connected to a V-shaped frame 422. The limiting groove 43 is the included angle of the V-shaped frame 422.

[0050] Working principle:

[0051] In this embodiment, after placing the seedling 1 with the soil ball 2 into the protective cavity of the rigid protective component 3, the support frame 42 located in the fitting groove 41 can be rotated so that the rotating rod 421 of the support frame 42 carries the V-shaped frame 422 to rotate and fit the seedling 1. That is, the seedling 1 can be limited by the limiting groove 43 of the V-shaped frame 422. Then, by rotating another support frame 42, the other side of the seedling 1 is limited. Then, the rotating support frame 42 is locked by the locking component 5, thereby fixing the relative position of the seedling 1 and the device and preventing the soil ball 2 from falling off due to the shaking of the seedling 1.

[0052] Furthermore, the end of the V-shaped frame 422 is bent downward to form a hook-shaped part 423; the locking member 5 is a binding rope, which is used to bind the two V-shaped frames 422 together with the seedling 1; the hook-shaped part 423 can effectively cooperate with the binding rope to achieve a simple structure to fix the seedling 1.

[0053] Preferably, the support frame 4 is installed on the top of the rigid protective component 3 via the assembly ring 44; when the diameter of the support frame 4 is determined according to the diameter of the seedling 1, the length of the support frame 42 can be effectively reduced relative to other parts of the rigid protective component 3 where the support frame 4 is installed via the assembly ring 44, so as to avoid the length of the support frame 42 from exceeding the longest fitting groove 41 that the support frame 4 can provide.

[0054] Preferably, the two mating grooves 41 are formed on the same diagonal line of the support frame 4, which can provide the support frame 42 with the mating groove 41 of the maximum length.

[0055] Furthermore, the support frame 42 is provided with a locking block 424, and the mating groove 41 is provided with a locking groove 45 that matches the locking block 424; specifically, the locking block 424 is fixedly connected to the end of the hook-shaped part 423, and the locking groove 45 corresponds to the position of the locking block 424 when the support frame 42 is located in the mating groove 41.

[0056] Specifically, each of the support frames 4 is provided with a card block 424 and a card slot 45 on its side, which can be connected to another support frame 4.

[0057] Example 3:

[0058] Please see Figures 1-4 As a variation of Embodiment 1 or Embodiment 2, the difference is that the gap between the support strips 32 of the rigid protective component 3 is formed with root holes 34, and the base 31 is provided with a main root hole.

[0059] The support frame 4 can be a tree grate, and the support frame 4 is installed on top of the rigid protective component 3 via an assembly ring 44.

[0060] Working principle:

[0061] When transplanting seedling 1, the rigid protective component 3 is placed directly into the planting pit, with the support frame 4 positioned on the soil surface. In this embodiment, the support frame 4 can be a tree grate, meaning it not only fulfills the functions of embodiments one and two but also acts as a tree grate to prevent soil erosion after transplanting seedling 1. Furthermore, this method eliminates the need for device recycling, avoiding the economic inefficiency and waste associated with recycling the device during long-distance transport of seedling 1.

[0062] In this embodiment, the rigid protective component 3 is preferably made of a biodegradable material, such as rigid cardboard.

[0063] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principle of this utility model should be included within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
