Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tree pruning technology, and in particular to a forestry tree pruning device. Background Technology

[0002] Forestry tree pruning equipment is a maintenance tool for human greening landscapes. It is used to maintain lawns, hedges, and protect flowers, grasses, and trees. With the development of urban construction in China in recent years, urban greening has become a large industry. Tree seedlings used for greening need to be pruned before planting.

[0003] Currently, existing forestry tree pruning equipment typically has basic cutting functions. While it can complete tree pruning operations, it cannot effectively handle falling branches during the cutting process. This leads to a high risk of workers being injured by falling branches, resulting in a high accident rate. This not only threatens the safety of personnel but may also damage the equipment, causing work stoppages and affecting the efficiency and safety of pruning work. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies that cannot effectively handle fallen branches during the cutting process, leading to injuries to workers and equipment damage. This invention provides a forestry tree pruning device.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A forestry tree pruning device, comprising:

[0007] The main column has two U-shaped brackets fixedly installed on its top side, and the other end of the two U-shaped brackets is fixedly installed with the same secondary column. The bottom end of the main column is fixedly installed with a connecting column.

[0008] The main column is equipped with a sweeping assembly for sweeping away fallen branches, and the secondary column is equipped with a cutting assembly for pruning trees.

[0009] In one possible design, the sweeping assembly includes a single rotating rod rotatably mounted inside the main column and the auxiliary column via bearings. A connecting ring is fixedly mounted on the outside of the rotating rod at a U-shaped frame between the main column and the auxiliary column. Stop bars are symmetrically fixed on both sides of the connecting ring. A motor is fixedly mounted inside the connecting column, and the output shaft of the motor is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the rotating rod.

[0010] In one possible design, the cutting assembly includes a connecting box fixedly mounted on the top of the sub-column. A rotating shaft is rotatably mounted on one side of the connecting box. A cutting blade is fixedly mounted on the outer end of the rotating shaft by a nut. A driven bevel gear is fixedly mounted on the end of the rotating shaft located inside the connecting box. An active bevel gear is fixedly mounted on a rotating rod located inside the connecting box. The active bevel gear meshes with the driven bevel gear for transmission.

[0011] In one possible design, a hanging ring is fixedly provided on one side of both the main column and the connecting column. A hook can be detached from each of the two hanging rings. The same carrying strap is fixedly provided on each of the two hooks. A silicone pad is fixedly provided on the inner side of the carrying strap.

[0012] In one possible design, the main column is externally fixed with an anti-slip sleeve.

[0013] In one possible design, a connecting seat is fixedly provided at the bottom of the connecting column.

[0014] In this application, if it is found that the length of the equipment cannot meet the trimming requirements before use, the connecting seat at the bottom of the connecting column can be used to extend the length. The prepared extension part (which also has a hanging ring installed on it) is threaded to the connecting seat to ensure a tight connection and avoid loosening or falling off during use, which would affect the normal progress of the trimming work.

[0015] To begin use, attach the shoulder strap to the hook on the hanging ring on one side of the main column and connecting column. Adjust the length of the shoulder strap to ensure the device is comfortably worn. The silicone pad should conform to the body to reduce pressure and maintain relative comfort even during extended use. Then, grasp the controller provided with the device and press the controller switch to power the motor inside the connecting column. This will start the motor, causing the motor's output shaft to rotate. As the rotating shaft rotates, the active bevel gear fixedly mounted on the rotating shaft inside the connecting box will also rotate. Because the active bevel gear and the fixed bevel gear are located inside the connecting box... The driven bevel gears at the end engage in a transmission, so the active bevel gears drive the driven bevel gears to rotate, which in turn causes the shaft to rotate. At the same time, the cutting blade at the outer end of the shaft rotates at high speed. At this time, the user holds the main column and brings the cutting blade close to the part of the tree that needs to be pruned, so that the tree can be pruned. As the rotating rod rotates, it causes the cutting blade to rotate, which in turn causes the connecting ring fixed at the U-shaped frame between the main column and the auxiliary column to rotate. The stop bars fixed on both sides of the connecting ring rotate accordingly. During the tree pruning process, when a branch falls, the stop bars will sweep the fallen branch away to prevent it from hitting the staff and ensure operational safety.

[0016] During use, the user must always hold the main column firmly, use the anti-slip sleeve to increase friction and prevent the equipment from slipping out of their hand, pay attention to the surrounding environment, and ensure that there are no other personnel or obstacles in the working range of the cutting blade to avoid accidents. At the same time, the pruning force and angle should be reasonably controlled, and the operation should be carried out according to the growth of the tree and the pruning needs to achieve the ideal pruning effect.

[0017] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] This invention, through the design of the cutting components, allows users to more precisely control the cutting position and force, effectively improving the quality and efficiency of tree pruning and meeting the actual needs of forestry tree pruning work.

[0019] By incorporating a sweeping component, this invention effectively prevents tree branches from hitting workers during the cutting process, allowing them to operate in a safe environment. This not only significantly reduces the accident rate and protects personnel safety but also prevents equipment damage and work stoppages caused by accidents, ensuring the efficient, stable, and reliable progress of forestry tree pruning.
