Abstract

A stable ground sleeve that is inserted vertically into the ground, has a cavity for water absorption, and an external sleeve tip. The ground sleeve is suitable for the vertical support of branches. Drill holes at the upper edge of the ground sleeve allow the branches to be fixed with nails or similar fasteners. The vertical positioning of the branches creates tree-like structures. The ground sleeve is characterized by having an external tip (1), a cavity for water (2), and two drill holes at the upper edge of the sleeve (3) that allow the vertically positioned tree branches (4) to be fixed with nails or similar fasteners.

Description

[0001] Horizontal tree branches cannot be used by deer or red deer to rub their antlers. Firstly, many branches are inaccessible to the animals. Secondly, horizontally positioned branches do not offer the necessary resistance.

[0002] The invention described in claim 1 is based on the problem of stably positioning a horizontal tree branch vertically so that it can serve as a so-called rubbing tree for deer or red deer, similar to a tree.

[0003] This problem is solved by the features listed in claim 1.

[0004] The invention enables a tree branch to be securely set up as a dustpan. After driving the ground sleeve into the ground, a tree branch is placed vertically inside and secured with a nail or similar fastener. The ground sleeve is dimensioned to allow water to collect inside (from rain or by filling it with water), thus keeping the branch fresher for longer and retaining its appealing fragrance.

[0005] An advantageous embodiment of the invention is shown in claim 1. A tree branch was inserted vertically into the ground sleeve, resulting in a tree structure.

[0006] An example implementation will be shown using the Fig. 1 shown.

[0007] The figure shows the vertically driven ground sleeve with sleeve tip (1), sleeve cavity for water (2), and boreholes (3). The branch (4) inserted vertically into the ground sleeve shows the resulting tree structure. This creates an ideal rubbing post for roe deer and red deer.

Claims

[1] A stable ground sleeve that is inserted vertically into the ground, has a cavity for water absorption, and an external sleeve tip. The ground sleeve is suitable for the vertical support of branches. Drill holes at the top of the ground sleeve allow the branches to be fixed with nails or similar fasteners. The vertical positioning of the branches creates tree-like structures. characterized by , that the ground sleeve has an external point (1), a cavity for water (2) and 2 boreholes on the upper edge of the sleeve (3) which allow the vertically positioned tree branches (4) to be fixed by nails or similar. [2] Ground sleeve according to claim 1, characterized by The ground sleeve must be at least 50 cm long, have a minimum diameter of 50 mm, and a wall thickness of at least 2 mm. The holes at the top should have a minimum diameter of 6 mm.
