Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a support frame for trees. Background Technology

[0002] In landscaping, urban roadside greening, and courtyard planting, newly planted trees, whose root systems have not yet fully extended and firmly bonded to the soil, have extremely poor wind resistance and are highly susceptible to tilting or even falling due to wind or external forces, severely impacting their survival rate and aesthetic appeal. Therefore, installing tree supports has become a necessary and standardized maintenance measure. Currently, common tree supports on the market are usually three- or four-legged structures, mostly constructed from wooden, bamboo, or metal poles connected by wires and straps. Their assembly process is complex, requiring multiple people to work together, resulting in low efficiency and an inability to meet the needs of large-scale planting. Furthermore, each tree requires three or four supports for fixation, leading to high costs. Utility Model Content

[0003] This utility model provides a support frame for trees.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows:

[0005] A tree support frame includes a support frame comprising a first support rod, the top end of which is connected to a trunk connector. The trunk connector comprises a first connector and a second connector, both of which are arc-shaped. The first support rod is connected to a first rotating joint on the outer wall of the first connector via a shaft. A horizontally protruding second rotating joint is provided on the inner side of the first support rod. A second support rod is connected to the second rotating joint via a shaft. The first connector and the second connector are hinged and fixed together. A first extension plate extends vertically outward from the other end of the first connector, and a second extension plate extends vertically outward from the other end of the second connector. Fixing holes are respectively provided at the upper and lower ends of the first and second extension plates, and bolts pass through the fixing holes. The other end of the bolts engages with nuts.

[0006] Preferably, the tail end of the first support rod is provided with a first fixed anchor point in the horizontal direction.

[0007] Preferably, the first fixed anchor point is a square fixing plate, and the four corners are provided with first through holes.

[0008] Preferably, the length of the second support rod is equal to the length from the second rotary joint to the tail end of the first support rod.

[0009] Preferably, the tail end of the second support rod is provided with a second fixed anchor point in the horizontal direction.

[0010] Preferably, the second fixing anchor point is a square fixing plate, and the outer two ends are provided with second through holes.

[0011] Preferably, the connection between the first connector and the second connector is provided with a first bushing and a second bushing alternately from top to bottom, and the first bushing and the second bushing are alternately sleeved on the rotating shaft.

[0012] Compared with existing technologies, the tree support frame of this utility model integrates the first and second connectors by riveting the second connector to the first connector, making them a single unit during installation. Furthermore, a second support rod is rotatably connected to the first support rod. During installation, the first support rod is fixed first, then the second support rod, and finally the first and second connectors are adjusted and fixed according to the width of the tree trunk. The entire process requires only one person to operate, simplifying the installation process and improving work efficiency. Two support frames of different heights can provide support and fixation for the tree trunk in four directions, resulting in lower costs. Attached Figure Description

[0017] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0018] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a tree support frame includes a support frame 1, which includes a first support rod 11. A trunk connector 2 is connected to the top of the first support rod 11. The trunk connector 2 includes a first connector 21 and a second connector 22. The first connector 21 and the second connector 22 are arc-shaped, so that the first connector 21 and the second connector 22 can hug the trunk from opposite directions. The first support rod 11 is connected to a first rotating joint 212 on the outer wall of the first connector 21 via a shaft. The first support rod 11 can rotate around the first rotating joint 212 to adjust the angle between the first support rod 11 and the first connector 21.

[0019] The tail end of the first support rod 11 is provided with a first fixed anchor point 12 in the horizontal direction. The first fixed anchor point 12 is a square fixing plate, and the four corners are provided with first through holes for use with screws to fix the first support rod 11 to the cement or brick road surface.

[0020] The inner side of the first support rod 11 is provided with a horizontally protruding second rotary joint 13. A second support rod 14 is provided at the second rotary joint 13 via a shaft connection. The second support rod 14 can rotate around the second rotary joint 13 to adjust the angle between the second support rod 14 and the first support rod 11. The length of the second support rod 14 is equal to the length from the second rotary joint 13 to the tail end of the first support rod 11.

[0021] The tail end of the second support rod 14 is provided with a second fixed anchor point 15 in the horizontal direction. The second fixed anchor point 15 is a square fixing plate, and the outer two ends are provided with second through holes for use with screws to fix the second support rod 14 to the cement or brick road surface.

[0022] The second support rod 14 provides triangular support to the first support rod 11, making the structure more stable and robust.

[0023] The first connector 21 and the second connector 22 are hinged together. At the connection between the first connector 21 and the second connector 22, a first bushing 213 and a second bushing 222 are respectively staggered from top to bottom. The first bushing 213 and the second bushing 222 are staggered and fitted onto the rotating shaft 3, so that the second connector 22 can rotate around the first connector 21. The other end of the first connector 21 extends vertically outward with a first extension plate 211, and the other end of the second connector 22 extends vertically outward with a second extension plate 221. The upper and lower ends of the first extension plate 211 and the second extension plate 221 are respectively provided with through holes, and bolts are inserted through the through holes. The other end of the bolts cooperates with nuts to fix the first connector 21 and the second connector 22. Moreover, the distance between the first connector 21 and the second connector 22 can be adjusted so that the first connector 21 and the second connector 22 can be adapted to tree trunks of different diameters, so that the first connector 21 and the second connector 22 can be firmly attached to and fixed to the tree trunk.

[0024] Since the trunk connector 2 of the support frame 1 includes a first connector 21 and a second connector 22, when supporting a tree, one support frame 1 can fix the trunk in two relative directions. Therefore, only two support frames 1 of different heights need to be fixed at 90° to each other to support the trunk in four directions (front, back, left, and right), which reduces the cost compared to the traditional use of three or four support frames to fix the trunk.

[0025] This utility model provides a tree support frame by riveting a second connector 22 onto a first connector 21, making the first and second connectors 21 and 22 a single unit during installation. A second support rod 14 is rotatably connected to the first support rod 11. During installation, the first support rod 11 is fixed first, then the second support rod 14 is fixed, and finally the first and second connectors 21 and 22 are adjusted and fixed according to the width of the tree trunk. The entire process requires only one person to operate, simplifying the installation process and improving work efficiency. Two support frames 1 of different heights can provide support and fixation for the tree trunk in four directions, resulting in lower costs.

[0026] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments only illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
