Description

Soporte-suministrador de hilo para el entutorado de plantas de invernadero.Support-wire supplier for the entutorado of greenhouse plants.

Object of the invention

La presente invención se refiere a un dispositivo que actúa como soporte del hilo normalmente utilizado para el entutorado de plantas de invernadero, así como también de suministrador de dicho hilo, a partir de un carrete que incorpora, tras cada ciclo productivo de invernadero.The present invention relates to a device that acts as a support for the thread normally used for the entutorado of greenhouse plants, as well as of supplier of said thread, from a reel that incorporates, after each greenhouse production cycle.

El objeto de la invención es conseguir un soporte-suministrador que por un lado se mantenga perfectamente estable sobre el alambre del que cuelga conjuntamente con otros dispositivos iguales, y que a su vez ofrezca una gran facilidad de manejo, que puede realizarse desde el suelo, cada vez que se hace preciso sustituir el tramo de hilo en uso por un tramo de hilo nuevo proveniente del citado carrete.The object of the invention is to achieve a support-supplier that on the one hand remains perfectly stable on the wire that hangs together with other similar devices, and that in turn offers a great ease of handling, which can be done from the ground, every time that it is necessary to replace the section of thread in use with a section of new thread coming from said reel.

Background of the invention

Como es sabido, existen determinadas especies hortícolas, como es el caso de los tomates, las judías verdes, etc., que requieren para su óptimo desarrollo de tutores sobre el que estas plantas se enraman, trepando hasta considerable altura, con lo que sus ramas adquieren una mayor longitud y resultan mas aireadas y soleadas, lo que evidentemente repercute de forma muy favorable en el fruto obtenido.As is known, there are certain species horticultural, as is the case with tomatoes, green beans, etc., which require for their optimal development of tutors on the that these plants are rooted, climbing to considerable height, with which its branches acquire a greater length and are more airy and sunny, which obviously has a very strong impact favorable in the fruit obtained.

En los cultivos intensivos de estas plantas, en el seno de invernaderos, se utilizan alambres horizontales dispuestos a considerable altura, normalmente superior a los 3 metros, de los que cuelgan hilos que constituyen respectivos tutores y que se extienden entre dichos alambres y las proximidades del suelo.In intensive crops of these plants, in the bosom of greenhouses, horizontal wires are used arranged at considerable height, usually greater than 3 meters, of which hang threads that constitute respective tutors and that extend between said wires and the vicinity ground.

Dado que los citados hilos son desechados conjuntamente con las respectivas plantas, es conocida la utilización de carretes suministradores del citado hilo, que con la colaboración de ganchos se cuelgan de los alambres superiores y horizontales, contando dichos carretes con medios de bloqueo que permiten al tramo operativo de hilo cumplir su función, y que a la vez permiten desbloquear el carrete cuando el hilo se corta y debe ser sustituido por un tramo nuevo del mismo.Since these threads are discarded together with the respective plants, the use of spools suppliers of said thread, which with the Collaboration hooks are hung from the upper wires and horizontal, counting said reels with blocking means that they allow the operative section of thread to fulfill its function, and that Once they allow you to unlock the spool when the thread is cut and you must be replaced by a new section of it.

En este sentido cabe citar la Patente de Invención P 9700038, en la que el citado gancho soporte del carrete se materializa en un elemento alámbrico, elástico, que por su extremidad superior configura el gancho propiamente dicho para colgado del alambre superior y horizontal, y una de cuyas ramas presenta una doble inflexión en funciones de medio de tope y liberación para una de las valonas del carrete, provista a tal efecto de un tope complementario.In this regard, the Patent of Invention P 9700038, wherein said reel support hook it materializes in a wired, elastic element, which by its upper limb configures the hook itself to hung from the upper and horizontal wire, and one of whose branches it presents a double inflection in functions of stopper and release for one of the reels of the reel, provided to such effect of a complementary stop.

Este dispositivo, si bien cumple de forma satisfactoria la función para la que ha sido previsto, es decir su función como medio de retención y desbloqueo del carrete suministrador de hilo, presenta en la práctica una problemática que se centra fundamentalmente en los siguientes aspectos:This device, although it complies with satisfactory function for which it has been planned, that is its function as means of retention and unlocking of the reel wire supplier, presents in practice a problem that It focuses primarily on the following aspects:

--: Para desbloquear el carrete se hace preciso actuar manualmente sobre el elemento alámbrico, para deformarlo elásticamente y de forma temporal durante el desarrollamiento del hilo, lo que obliga a la utilización de plataformas situadas a la altura determinada por los alambres horizontales y superiores, o bien a la utilización de escaleras. En el primer caso el montaje de las citadas plataformas resulta lento y costoso, y en el segundo caso la manipulación de los soportes en una escalera de tan considerable altura, supone un notable riesgo de accidente para los operarios, además de la laboriosidad que supone ir cambiando la escalera de posición en correspondencia con cada tutor de la instalación.For Unlocking the reel is necessary to act manually on the wired element, to elastically deform and shape it temporary during the development of the thread, which forces the use of platforms located at the height determined by the horizontal and upper wires, or the use of stairs. In the first case the assembly of the mentioned platforms it is slow and expensive, and in the second case the manipulation of the supports on a ladder of such considerable height, it supposes a Remarkable accident risk for operators, in addition to the industriousness that involves changing the position ladder in correspondence with each installation tutor.

--: El acoplamiento del gancho al alambre horizontal superior, por simple enganche sobre éste último, hace que la fijación resulte inestable, de manera que durante su manipulación es frecuente que se produzcan "saltos" del gancho, con el consecuente desenclavamiento del alambre que lo soporta, o un desplazamiento longitudinal sobre el mismo que también es indeseable.He hook coupling to the upper horizontal wire, by simple hook on the latter, makes the fixation unstable, so that during their handling it is frequent that they occur "jumps" of the hook, with the consequent unlocking of the wire that supports it, or a longitudinal displacement on the same that is also undesirable.

--: El ambiente del invernadero, con un permanente y alto grado de humedad, hace que los elementos metálicos del dispositivo sufran una rápida oxidación, con el consecuente deterioro.He greenhouse environment, with a permanent and high degree of moisture, causes the metal elements of the device to suffer rapid oxidation, with the consequent deterioration.

Description of the invention

El soporte-suministrador de hilo que la invención propone resuelve de forma plenamente satisfactoria la problemática anteriormente expuesta, en los diferentes aspectos comentados.The support-wire supplier that the invention proposes resolves in a fully satisfactory manner the problem described above, in the different aspects commented.

Para ello y de forma mas concreta dicho soporte-suministrador se materializa en un cuerpo base obtenido mediante moldeo por inyección a base de material plástico, en el que se define una amplia ventana rectangular que constituye el alojamiento para el clásico carrete suministrador del hilo, el cual se acopla al cuerpo base mediante ranuras acodadas existentes en éste último.To do this and more specifically said support-supplier materializes in a body base obtained by injection molding based on material plastic, in which a large rectangular window is defined that constitutes the accommodation for the classic reel supplier of the thread, which is coupled to the base body by angled grooves existing in the latter.

El citado cuerpo base se remata por su extremidad superior en una brida de embocadura estrangulada para fijación al alambre horizontal, superior y sustentador de los diversos soportes, de manera que se hace preciso una deformación elástica de la citada brida para que el alambre penetre en el seno de la misma, y la posterior recuperación elástica de la brida, hace que ambos elementos, brida y alambre, queden perfectamente fijados entre sí.The aforementioned base body is topped by its upper limb in a strangulated mouth flange for horizontal, superior and sustaining wire fixing various supports, so that deformation is required elastic of the aforementioned flange so that the wire penetrates into the breast of the same, and the subsequent elastic recovery of the flange, makes that both elements, flange and wire, are perfectly fixed each.

Para el bloqueo/desbloqueo del carrete se ha previsto que en la extremidad inferior del cuerpo base, por debajo del citado carrete, se establezca una guía para un tope móvil, complementario del clásico tope de que está provisto el carrete, siendo dicho tope retráctil en contra de la tensión de un fleje y estando provisto de una anilla que permite su retracción en contra de dicho fleje y en sentido de separación del carrete, para desbloqueo del mismo, cuando se tracciona sobre un cabo convenientemente fijado a dicha anilla y que se extiende hasta las proximidades del suelo.For locking / unlocking the reel you have provided that in the lower extremity of the base body, below of said reel, a guide for a movable stop is established, complementary to the classic stop that the reel is provided with, said retractable stop being against the tension of a strap and being provided with a ring that allows its retraction against of said strap and in the direction of separation of the reel, for unlocking it, when it is pulled on a rope conveniently fixed to said ring and extending to soil proximity.

De acuerdo con esta estructuración, en el momento de sustituir el tramo de hilo actuante como tutor, basta con traccionar del citado cabo para que el propio peso de la planta provoque el desenrrollamiento del hilo suministrado por el carrete, hasta que un nuevo tramo de dicho hilo queda en situación operante, procediéndose al corte del hilo a nivel apropiado, y todo ello desde el suelo, en una maniobra extraordinariamente rápida y sencilla, y sin el mas mínimo riesgo para los operarios.According to this structuring, in the time to replace the section of thread acting as a tutor, just with traction of the aforementioned cape so that the plant's own weight cause the unwinding of the thread supplied by the spool, until a new section of said thread is in an operating situation, proceeding to the cutting of the thread at the appropriate level, and all from the ground, in an extraordinarily fast and simple maneuver, and without the slightest risk for operators.
