Abstract

(57) [Summary] [Purpose] To provide a belt that eliminates the inclination of trees at an early stage without damaging the trees. [Structure] A belt 1 made of linen, which has an elongated shape with an appropriate width and is hung around a tree to leave an appropriate margin on both sides, and a connecting portion 2 for inserting and connecting a pulling rope A at both ends of the belt. It is a tree-raising belt characterized by having formed.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a tree-raising belt used for artificially applying a force to a tree in a specific direction during the growth process of the tree.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 It takes a long time for artificially planted seedlings to grow to the desired size. Trees grow under various climatic conditions during their growth process, and thus, in order to obtain a tree of a desired size, it requires various kinds of maintenance that rely on manpower during the growth process.

For example, in a tree that is required to grow straight, the weight of snow accumulated on the branches or the typhoon may cause the tree to lean from the root. It requires early maintenance to eliminate the inclination.

In order to eliminate the inclination when a tree that has been planted for about 10 to 13 years has inclined from the root, conventionally, a rope or other pulling rope has been attached to the trunk of the tree at an appropriate height from the ground. It is widely practiced to apply the force to cause the inclination and wait for the inclination to be naturally resolved over a period of 1 to 2 years.

[0005]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, as described above, in the conventional method in which a rope or other pulling rope is directly hung on the trunk of the tree to make it stretched, the contact area between the trunk of the tree and the pulling rope is small, and the pulling force from the pulling rope is Since the tree concentrates on the trunk of the tree, the pull rope may bite into the trunk of the tree over time, resulting in deterioration of quality.

[0006] When a rope made of a synthetic resin material such as nylon is used as the pulling rope, natural cutting due to weathering (corrosion) of the pulling rope itself cannot be expected, so it is necessary to remove the pulling rope from the tree depending on the time. Needed and labor-intensive.

The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and an object of the present invention is to provide a tree raising belt that can eliminate the inclination of a tree at an early stage and is free from human labor.

[0008]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The gist of the present invention for achieving the above-mentioned object is a belt made of linen, which has an elongated shape with an appropriate width and is hung around a tree and leaves an appropriate margin on both sides. The tree-raising belt is characterized in that connecting portions for inserting pulling ropes are formed at both ends thereof.

[0009]

[Action]

 The belt does not contact the trunk of the tree over a large area, and the force is not dispersed to damage the tree. The linen belt will be naturally cut and eliminated by weathering when the tree raising is finished.

[0010]

【Example】

 An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a belt showing a first embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a belt showing a second embodiment.

In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a belt, which is formed in an elongated shape with an appropriate width and is set to a length that hangs around a tree and leaves an appropriate margin on both sides. The belt 1 is made by laminating a plurality of linens on each other. Reference numeral 2 denotes a connecting portion formed at both ends of the belt 1, and a pulling rope is inserted and connected to the connecting portion 2. The connecting portion 2 in the first embodiment shown in FIG. 1 is formed in a tubular hole shape by folding back both ends of the belt. In the connecting portion 2 in the second embodiment shown in FIG. 2, both end portions of the belt are joined to form an endless structure, which is flattened, and the bent portions at both end portions are used as the connecting portion 2.

It should be noted that the strength of the belt 1 is set so as to obtain a desired strength depending on the number of laminated unit linens. The life of the belt 1, that is, the time when the belt 1 naturally breaks due to weathering can be roughly predicted from the belt cross-sectional area and the like. It is also possible to artificially set the life of the belt 1 by incorporating into the belt 1 a substance (a chemical or the like) that causes the hemp to rapidly corrode after a predetermined period.

As shown in FIG. 3, the belt 1 configured as described above is hung around the trunk of a tree B, one end of the pulling rope A is inserted and connected to the connecting portion 2, and the other end of the pulling rope A is grounded or the like. The force is applied to the tree B by connecting it to the fixed part C set to and pulling it.

In the case of the belt 1 having a single structure as in the first embodiment, the belt 1 is hung around the trunk of the tree B as shown in FIG. 4 and one end of the pull rope A is inserted and connected to the connecting portion 2. .

In the case of the flat belt 1 having the endless structure as in the second embodiment, one end of the pull rope A is inserted into the connecting portion 2 by hanging it around the trunk of the tree B as shown in FIG. In this case, the belt 1 can be vertically overlapped with respect to the trunk of the tree B to increase the contact area of the tree B with the trunk.

[0017]

[Effect of device]

 According to this invention configured as described above, the following effects can be obtained.

(1) Since the belt makes contact with the trunk of the tree over a wide area and disperses the inducing force, the tree is not damaged. In addition, since the pulling rope can be made stronger than when it is directly hung on the tree, the time required to raise the tree can be shortened.

(2) Since the belt is made of linen and its life can be predicted to some extent, it is naturally cut and eliminated due to weathering at the time when the tree's raising is finished, and the work of manually removing the pull rope from the tree Eliminates the need for easy maintenance.
