Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of plant specimen preparation technology, and specifically to a plant specimen pressing device. Background Technology

[0002] Plant specimens are the core basis of plant taxonomy. Their morphological characteristics can accurately identify species and resolve taxonomic disputes, while DNA information can be used to construct species genetic maps. In scientific research, the collection of plant specimens can improve biodiversity databases, identify biodiversity hotspots and collection gaps, and thus guide conservation actions. Therefore, plant specimens are not only intuitive teaching tools, but also a source of original data for plant research institutes.

[0003] Currently, the botanical garden herbarium needs to collect tens of thousands of plant specimens annually, but traditional pressing tools are inefficient and time-consuming. Traditional plant specimen pressing tools have many drawbacks. Structurally, they rely on fiber ropes (such as hemp rope, cotton rope, nylon rope, etc.), which are tightened and knotted manually. The binding effect depends entirely on the operator's strength, the tightness of the knots, and the friction between the rope and the specimen clamps. Operationally, the original fiber ropes are highly elastic and prone to loosening, requiring repeated adjustments to the knots / locks. Typically, one to two workers are needed to tighten them fully to achieve the required tightness, and the number of specimens that can be pressed at one time is limited. Furthermore, the ropes are prone to wear and aging, requiring frequent replacement, and the heat generated during the drying process may pose a fire risk. Based on these problems, improvements to the specimen pressing tools are needed to enhance work efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a plant specimen pressing device in order to solve the problems existing in the prior art.

[0005] In order to solve the problems existing in the prior art, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A plant specimen pressing device includes a pressing plate and a pressing structure;

[0007] At least two pressing plates arranged in the same direction form an accommodating space, in which the plant specimen is placed; at least one pressing structure is arranged around the outside of the two pressing plates, and the accommodating space is reduced by the pressing structure to press the plant specimen.

[0008] As an improvement to the technical solution of the plant specimen pressing device of this utility model, each pressing structure includes a binding strap and a fixing device disposed on the binding strap. Adjusting the position of the fixing device on the binding strap reduces the accommodating space.

[0009] As an improvement to the technical solution of the plant specimen pressing device of this utility model, the binding strap includes an integrally formed tension strap and an adjustment strap, and the fixing device is set at the connection between the tension strap and the adjustment strap.

[0010] As an improvement to the technical solution of the plant specimen pressing device of this utility model, the fixing device is a metal gear or ratchet.

[0011] As an improvement to the technical solution of the plant specimen pressing device of this utility model, at least two limiting strips arranged in the same direction are provided on the outer side of the pressing plate, and the pressing structure is arranged between the two limiting strips.

[0013] As an improvement to the technical solution of the plant specimen pressing device of this utility model, the plant specimen pressing device includes three or more pressing plates to form at least two accommodating spaces.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] In this invention, at least two pressure plates arranged in the same direction form a receiving space for placing plant specimens. The pressing structure surrounding the outer side achieves pressing by reducing the receiving space, which can form uniform and stable pressure on the plant specimens, helping to flatten and shape the specimens and reduce wrinkles or deformation. At the same time, the way the pressing structure is wrapped around the outside of the pressure plates allows for flexible operation, and the pressure can be adjusted according to the actual situation such as the thickness of the specimens, adapting to different types and states of plant specimens. In addition, the overall structure is simple, easy to assemble and operate, which can improve the efficiency and success rate of specimen pressing, and also facilitates the subsequent preservation and processing of specimens.

[0018] To make the invention objective, technical solution and beneficial effects of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of this utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0019] like Figure 1As shown, a plant specimen pressing device includes pressing plates 1 and pressing structures 2; at least two pressing plates 1 arranged in the same direction form an accommodating space 3, in which plant specimens are placed; at least one pressing structure 2 is arranged around the outside of the two pressing plates 1, and the pressing structure 2 reduces the accommodating space 3 to press the plant specimens.

[0020] In this invention, at least two pressure plates 1 arranged in the same direction form a receiving space 3 for placing plant specimens. The pressing structure 2 surrounding the outside achieves pressing by reducing the receiving space 3, which can form uniform and stable pressure on the plant specimens, helping to flatten and shape the specimens and reduce wrinkles or deformation. At the same time, the way the pressing structure 2 is wrapped around the outside of the pressure plate 1 allows for flexible operation. The pressure can be adjusted according to the actual situation such as the thickness of the specimen, adapting to different types and states of plant specimens. In addition, the overall structure is simple, easy to assemble and operate, which can improve the efficiency and success rate of specimen pressing, and also facilitates the subsequent preservation and processing of specimens.

[0021] In detail, since the pressing structure 2 is arranged around the outside of at least two pressing plates 1, when in use, pressure is applied to at least two pressing plates 1 by the pressing structure 2, so that the distance between two adjacent pressing plates 1 is reduced, thereby reducing the holding space 3 in which the plant specimen is placed, so as to achieve the effect of pressing the plant specimen.

[0022] Preferably, the binding strap is made of synthetic fiber webbing. Synthetic fibers, such as nylon and polyester, possess high tensile strength and tear resistance, enabling them to withstand significant tension and meet the binding and securing needs of various scenarios. They are also less prone to breakage due to prolonged use or repeated stress, resulting in a longer service life. Furthermore, compared to some metal materials, synthetic fiber webbing has lower production and manufacturing costs, reducing overall operating costs and facilitating mass production and replacement.

[0023] In some embodiments of this utility model, each pressing structure 2 includes a binding strap and a fixing device 4 disposed on the binding strap. Adjusting the position of the fixing device 4 on the binding strap reduces the accommodating space 3. In each pressing structure 2, by cooperating with the binding strap and the fixing device 4, adjusting the position of the fixing device 4 on the binding strap adjusts the tightness of the binding strap wrapped between at least two pressing plates 1, thereby adjusting the size of the accommodating space 3, and subsequently adjusting the pressure applied to the plant specimen by the at least two pressing plates 1, to achieve the effect of pressing the plant specimen.

[0024] In some embodiments of this utility model, the binding strap includes an integrally formed tension strap 5 and an adjustment strap 6, and the fixing device 4 is disposed at the connection between the tension strap 5 and the adjustment strap 6.

[0025] In detail, the binding strap uses a one-piece molded tension band 5 and adjustment band 6, which enhances the overall structural continuity and strength, reduces the risk of breakage due to splicing, improves durability, and facilitates the adjustment of the position of the fixing device 4 on the binding strap. It should be noted that the tension band 5 and adjustment band 6 are two parts of the binding strap, divided according to the position of the fixing device 4. After the binding strap passes through the fixing device 4, the portion that passes through the fixing device 4 first becomes taut and adheres to the pressure plate 1; this portion is the tension band 5. The portion that is easy for the user to tighten after passing through the fixing device 4 is the adjustment band 6.

[0026] In some embodiments of this utility model, the fixing device 4 is a metal gear or ratchet. The design of the gear or ratchet makes the binding or fixing operation more convenient and efficient. Through gear meshing or ratchet engagement, the binding strap can be easily adjusted and quickly tightened. After tightening, it can be stably locked and not easily loosened, ensuring the pressing effect of the pressing structure 2 on the pressing plate 1 and the plant specimen, and maintaining a stable state during the pressing process, effectively preventing slippage. Among them, the ratchet structure is existing technology and can be the ratchet of the binding device disclosed in patent number 200510026070.5.

[0027] In some embodiments of this utility model, at least two unidirectional limiting strips 7 are provided on the outer side of the pressure plate 1, and the pressing structure 2 is disposed between the two limiting strips 7. Confining the pressing structure 2 between the two limiting strips 7 can effectively prevent the pressing structure 2 from shifting laterally or shaking during operation, ensuring that it is always in the preset working position.

[0028] In some embodiments of this invention, the plant specimen pressing device includes three or more pressing plates 1 to form at least two accommodating spaces 3. Multiple accommodating spaces 3 can simultaneously accommodate multiple plant specimens for pressing, eliminating the need for batch operations. This significantly saves time and improves work efficiency, especially when processing large quantities of specimens.

[0029] Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
