Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of vine fixing brackets, specifically a retractable and foldable pumpkin vine fixing bracket. Background Technology

[0002] Pumpkin vines are the stems of annual creeping herbaceous vines belonging to the Cucurbitaceae family and the Cucurbita genus. They originated in Mexico and Central America and were introduced to my country during the Ming Dynasty. They are widely cultivated throughout the country. Their vines can grow to 2-5 meters in length. As the core part of pumpkin growth, the vines are responsible for transporting nutrients and supporting the leaves and fruits. In their natural growth, they need to rely on supports to extend upwards, which is the foundation for high yield and quality of pumpkins.

[0003] Because pumpkin vines grow by creeping along the ground, they easily occupy a lot of land. Insufficient ventilation and sunlight can also lead to pests and diseases, reducing yield and quality. Current technology usually uses vine support structures to guide the vines upward, thereby saving planting space, improving the growing environment, and making pumpkin management easier, thus increasing pumpkin yield.

[0004] However, existing pumpkin vine supports mostly use straps or wires to fix the vines to the supports. This means that after the pumpkins are harvested, the straps or wires must be removed one by one before the supports can be dismantled and stored as a whole. This makes the dismantling of the supports time-consuming and labor-intensive, increases the intensity of manual labor, and affects the efficiency of the dismantling of the supports. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a retractable and foldable pumpkin vine fixing support, which can solve the existing problems.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows: The retractable and foldable pumpkin vine support includes: The folding assembly includes multiple sets of first and second columns. Each of the first and second columns has a T-shaped groove on one side and a connecting block on the other side. Two sets of T-shaped blocks are symmetrically slidably embedded inside the T-shaped groove. A support rod is rotatably provided on one side of the T-shaped block, and one end of the support rod is rotatably connected to one side of the connecting block. A telescopic assembly includes a first connecting rod and a second connecting rod. A first connecting groove is formed on the inner side of a first column, and a first connecting rod is slidably embedded in the inner side of the first connecting groove. A first rotating groove is formed on the inner side of the first connecting rod, and a first telescopic column is rotatably mounted on the top of the inner side of the first rotating groove. A fixing frame is provided at one end of the first telescopic column, and a fixing groove is formed on the inner side of the fixing frame. A second connecting groove is formed on the inner side of a second column, and a second connecting rod is slidably embedded in the inner side of the second connecting groove. A second telescopic column is rotatably mounted on the top of the inner side of the second rotating groove, and a fixing block is provided at one end of the second telescopic column. The fixing block is inserted into the inner side of the fixing groove.

[0007] Furthermore, both the first and second columns have a limiting groove on their inner bottom side, a limiting block is slidably embedded in the limiting groove, a through hole is provided through the bottom of the inner side of the limiting groove, and a fixing post is provided at the bottom of the limiting block, which is inserted into the through hole.

[0008] Furthermore, a second magnet is provided on the top of the limiting block, and a first magnet is provided on the top of the inner side of the limiting groove. The first magnet and the second magnet attract each other, and a pedal is provided at one end of the limiting block.

[0009] Furthermore, a push handle is provided on one side of the bottom of both the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod, and a through groove is provided on one side of the interior of both the first connecting groove and the second connecting groove, with the push handle slidingly disposed in the through groove. Furthermore, multiple sets of first threaded holes are opened through one side of the inner side of the first connecting groove and the second connecting groove, and second threaded holes are opened on the other side of the bottom of the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod. Bolts are screwed into the inner sides of the first threaded holes and the second threaded holes.

[0010] Furthermore, the inner side of the fixing frame is provided with a threaded post, and the inner side of the fixing block is provided with a fixing hole, and the threaded post is screwed into the inner side of the fixing hole.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model include: 1. By sliding the T-shaped blocks in the T-slots and rotating the support rods, workers can pull the columns outwards to complete the support network or push them inwards to shrink the structure, depending on the sparseness of the pumpkin planting. The two sets of symmetrical T-shaped blocks and support rods configured for each column will rotate synchronously around the rotating nodes at symmetrical angles when unfolded, forming a "V"-shaped support structure, making the device more stable. The telescopic columns can be retracted to their shortest length and rotated into the rotating slot, and the connecting rods can be retracted into the connecting slot, avoiding the need to disassemble or store parts separately, improving the overall storage efficiency of the device, and ensuring that the structure is compact and not easily scattered after storage, thus enabling the device to be quickly disassembled and stored. 2. By pushing the handle to drive the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod to slide along the first connecting groove and the second connecting groove respectively, the base height of the support can be flexibly adjusted; in conjunction with the length adjustment of the first telescopic column and the second telescopic column, the upper support space can be further expanded. After the height of the connecting rod is determined, the connecting rod and the column are rigidly fixed by screwing the bolt into the aligned first threaded hole and the second threaded hole; when splicing the telescopic column, after the fixing block is embedded in the fixing groove, it is reinforced by the threaded column passing through the fixing hole, which makes it easy for the vines to climb to a high place.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0016] like Figure 1 - Figure 6 As shown, this utility model provides a retractable and foldable pumpkin vine fixing bracket, including: a folding assembly 100, which includes multiple sets of first columns 110 and second columns 120. A T-shaped groove 114 is provided on one side of each of the first columns 110 and second columns 120. A connecting block 140 is provided on the other side of each of the first columns 110 and second columns 120. Two sets of T-shaped blocks 150 are symmetrically slidably embedded in the inner side of the T-shaped groove 114. A support rod 130 is rotatably provided on one side of each T-shaped block 150. One end of the support rod 130 is rotatably connected to one side of the connecting block 140. The telescopic assembly 200 includes a first connecting rod 250 and a second connecting rod 260. A first connecting groove 230 is provided on the inner side of the first column 110, and the first connecting rod 250 is slidably embedded in the inner side of the first connecting groove 230. A first rotating groove 251 is provided on the inner side of the first connecting rod 250, and a first telescopic column 270 is rotatably disposed on the top of the inner side of the first rotating groove 251. A fixing frame 271 is provided at one end of the first telescopic column 270, and a fixing groove 273 is provided on the inner side of the fixing frame 271. A second connecting groove 240 is provided on the inner side of the second column 120, and a second connecting rod 260 is slidably embedded in the inner side of the second connecting groove 240. A second rotating groove 261 is provided on the inner side of the second connecting rod 260, and a second telescopic column 280 is rotatably disposed on the top of the inner side of the second rotating groove 261. A fixing block 281 is provided at one end of the second telescopic column 280, and the fixing block 281 is inserted into the inner side of the fixing groove 273.

[0017] In the above scheme: 1. By stepping on the pedal 170, the fixing column 180 can be driven into the soil, thereby fixing the second column 120 and the first column 110, which facilitates the quick assembly of this device. 2. By cooperating with the two sets of support rods 130 and the connecting block 140, the first column 110 and the second column 120 can be connected together, which facilitates the disassembly and storage of multiple sets of second columns 120 and first columns 110. 3. By controlling the first connecting rod 250 to slide inside the first connecting groove 230 and the second connecting rod 260 to slide inside the second connecting groove 240, the height of the device can be increased, making it easier for the pumpkin vines to climb.

[0018] In this embodiment, both the first column 110 and the second column 120 have a limiting groove 111 on their inner bottom side. A limiting block 160 is slidably embedded in the inner side of the limiting groove 111. A through hole 112 is provided through the bottom of the inner side of the limiting groove 111. A fixing post 180 is provided at the bottom of the limiting block 160. The fixing post 180 is inserted into the inner side of the through hole 112.

[0019] In the above scheme: the inner diameter of the through hole 112 is matched with the outer diameter of the fixing column 180, the bottom of the limiting block 160 is welded with a cylindrical fixing column 180, and the end of the fixing column 180 away from the limiting block 160 is set with a tapered structure to facilitate insertion into the soil.

[0020] In this embodiment, a second magnet 161 is provided on the top of the limiting block 160, a first magnet 113 is provided on the top of the inner side of the limiting groove 111, the first magnet 113 and the second magnet 161 are attracted to each other, and a pedal 170 is provided at one end of the limiting block 160.

[0021] In the above scheme: one end of the limiting block 160 is welded to the pedal 170 extending to the outside of the column. The pedal 170 is a rectangular flat plate structure with anti-slip texture on the surface to facilitate workers to step on it and apply force.

[0022] In this embodiment, a push handle 252 is provided on one side of the bottom of the first connecting rod 250 and the second connecting rod 260. A through groove 220 is provided on one side of the inside of the first connecting groove 230 and the second connecting groove 240. The push handle 252 is slidably disposed in the through groove 220.

[0023] In the above scheme: the width of the through groove 220 is clearance-fitted with the diameter of the push handle 252, the push handle 252 extends through the through groove 220 to the outside of the column, and can slide along the length of the through groove 220.

[0024] In this embodiment, multiple sets of first threaded holes 231 are provided through one side of the inner side of the first connecting groove 230 and the second connecting groove 240, and second threaded holes 253 are provided on the other side of the bottom of the first connecting rod 250 and the second connecting rod 260. Bolts 210 are screwed into the inner sides of the first threaded holes 231 and the second threaded holes 253.

[0025] In the above scheme, the first connecting rod 250 and the first column 110, and the second connecting rod 260 and the second column 120 are fixed by the thread engagement of the bolt 210.

[0026] In this embodiment, the inner side of the fixing frame 271 is provided with a threaded post 272, and the inner side of the fixing block 281 is provided with a fixing hole 282, and the threaded post 272 is screwed into the inner side of the fixing hole 282.

[0027] In the above scheme: after the fixing block 281 is inserted into the fixing groove 273, the threaded column 272 is tightened so that it passes through the fixing hole 282, thereby achieving a rigid connection between the first telescopic column 270 and the second telescopic column 280.

[0028] In this embodiment, the staff first transports the folded and stored device to the pumpkin planting plot. Then, the first column 110 and the second column 120 of each group of the device are placed on both sides of the root of a single or multiple pumpkin vines, ensuring that the columns are parallel to the growth direction of the vines, so as to provide a reasonable support angle for subsequent climbing.

[0029] Then, based on the sparseness of the pumpkin planting, multiple sets of unpositioned first pillars 110 and second pillars 120 are pulled outwards. At this time, the connecting block 140, which is fixedly connected to the pillar, will drive one end of the support rod 130 to move synchronously, while the T-shaped block 150 connected to the other end of the support rod 130 will slide along the inner side of the T-shaped groove 114 opened on the side of the first pillar 110 and the second pillar 120. Since each set of pillars is equipped with two sets of symmetrical T-shaped blocks 150 and support rods 130, the support rods 130 on both sides will rotate synchronously around the rotation nodes of the T-shaped blocks 150 and the connecting block 140 at symmetrical angles, forming a stable "V"-shaped support structure. Finally, multiple sets of dispersed first pillars 110 and second pillars 120 are connected into a continuous support network, providing uniform winding and attachment points for the vines.

[0030] After the support network is completed, a rigid connection with the ground is achieved through the limiting and fixing structure at the bottom of the column to prevent the support from tipping over due to wind or the weight of vines. Workers step on the pedals 170 extending from the sides of the first column 110 and the second column 120. The pedals 170 and the limiting block 160 are an integrated structure. The stepping force will drive the limiting block 160 to slide downward along the limiting groove 111 on the bottom side of the column.

[0031] At this time, the fixing post 180 fixed at the bottom of the limiting block 160 will move down synchronously with the limiting block 160, pass through the through hole 112 opened at the bottom of the limiting groove 111, and vertically penetrate into the soil layer of the planting plot. Depending on the soil hardness, the tamping force can be appropriately increased to ensure that the insertion depth of the fixing post 180 meets the load-bearing requirements, thereby completely fixing the positions of the first post 110 and the second post 120.

[0032] When the device is not deployed, the second magnet 161 at the top of the limiting block 160 and the first magnet 113 at the top of the inner side of the limiting groove 111 are in a magnetically attracted state, which can stably store the fixing post 180 in the limiting groove 111, and prevent the fixing post 180 from protruding during transportation, causing bumps or scratches to personnel.

[0033] As the pumpkin vines grow, the height of the support needs to be adjusted using the telescopic component 200 to expand the climbing space. The operation revolves around the raising and lowering of the connecting rods and the splicing of the telescopic columns. Workers observe the vine's current highest climbing position and push the handle 252 on the bottom side of the first connecting rod 250 and the second connecting rod 260 upwards, driving the connecting rods to slide along the grooves inside the columns—the first connecting rod 250 rises along the first connecting groove 230, and the second connecting rod 260 rises along the second connecting groove 240. The handle 252 always slides within the through groove 220 on the side of the groove, providing a stable point of force for operation.

[0034] When the connecting rod rises to the target height, the second threaded hole 253 at the bottom of the first connecting rod 250 will precisely align with a pre-set set of first threaded holes 231 on the inner side of the first connecting groove 230. Similarly, the threaded holes of the second connecting rod 260 will also be aligned. At this time, the bolt 210 is screwed into the aligned threaded hole, and the connecting rod and the column are rigidly fixed through thread engagement, ensuring structural stability after height adjustment and the ability to support the weight of the vines and subsequent pumpkin fruits.

[0035] The workers rotate the first telescopic column 270 outward from the first rotating groove 251 inside the first connecting rod 250, and at the same time rotate the second telescopic column 280 outward from the second rotating groove 261 inside the second connecting rod 260, so that the two sets of telescopic columns change from a horizontal storage state to a vertical support state.

[0036] Pull the first telescopic column 270 and the second telescopic column 280 to adjust their lengths, so that the fixing block 281 at the end of the second telescopic column 280 is precisely embedded into the fixing groove 273 of the fixing frame 271 at the end of the first telescopic column 270. At this time, the threaded post 272 on the inner side of the fixing frame 271 is aligned with the fixing hole 282 on the inner side of the fixing block 281. Tighten the threaded post 272 so that it passes through the fixing hole 282, realizing a firm connection between the two sets of telescopic columns, forming a complete upper support structure for the vines to continue climbing upwards.

[0037] The worker pulls the pedal 170 upwards, causing the limiting block 160 to slide upwards along the limiting groove 111, pulling the fixing column 180 out of the soil and retracting it into the limiting groove 111. When the limiting block 160 moves to the top, the first magnet 113 and the second magnet 161 magnetically attract and adhere to each other again, stably storing the limiting block 160 and the fixing column 180.

[0038] By loosening the threaded post 272 inside the fixing frame 271, it is disengaged from the fixing hole 282 of the fixing block 281. Pulling the two sets of telescopic posts causes the fixing block 281 to disengage from the fixing groove 273. The first telescopic post 270 and the second telescopic post 280 are retracted to their shortest lengths and rotated back into the first rotating groove 251 and the second rotating groove 261 respectively to complete the storage. Then, the bolt 210 is loosened, and the push handle 252 is pushed down to retract the first connecting rod 250 and the second connecting rod 260 into the first connecting groove 230 and the second connecting groove 240 respectively.

[0039] By pushing multiple sets of first columns 110 and second columns 120 inward, the support rod 130 is driven to rotate in the opposite direction around the connection point. At the same time, the T-shaped block 150 slides inward along the T-shaped groove 114 until it is reset. Finally, the multiple sets of columns can be closely close together to form a compact storage state, which is convenient for staff to move, store and redeploy for the next planting.
