Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a pillar for preventing a plant from collapsing, which is inserted into the soil to support the plant from the time of planting until the root is rooted in the soil.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 When a plant is planted, it takes a certain period of time for the root to settle in the soil, but if a problem occurs in the root during this time, the root lacks water and nutrients, hinders growth, and the plant withers. There was an occasion. One of the problems is that the plants are shaken by the wind and so on, the roots move, and it is difficult for the roots to settle in the soil, resulting in interruption of water and nutrient supply. there were.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, conventionally, by inserting bamboo stanchions or steel tubes with resin coatings into the soil and fixing the plants, root troubles are eliminated. It prevented the plants from dying. In Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 5-2653, a column is provided with a plurality of through-holes, and support struts are opened at both ends to form a substantially circular spiral rig, and one end is inserted into the through-hole. However, a plant fall prevention tool that is configured to be inserted into another through hole on the other end side or formed as a concave curved part that fits the lower end to the outer circumference of the pillar and attached to the pillar is described. Has been done.

[0004]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 It was impossible to make a special and complicated structure for a conventional steel pipe with a resin coating on it because it was bent by a flat plate. Also, since it is a steel pipe, it bends when a force greater than the stress is applied, and it is impossible to restore it, and it may break if more force is applied or force is restored. In addition, the cut surface at the end of the column had to be post-processed, such as attaching a cap or sealing with an adhesive for waterproofing.

Further, in the case of the above-mentioned steel pipe stanchions, or when bamboo, thick wood, etc. are used as struts, the elasticity of the stanchions is small, so that the plant is fixed not only in the ground but also on the ground, which is small. In the case of trees and the like, the trunk grew soft and poor, and the plants could not support the weight of the upper part unless they were supported. The fall prevention tool described in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 5-26553 is one in which a supporting wheel is attached to a column, and the wheel can be adjusted to the thickness of the trunk according to the size of the plant. Was not enough and could not support the plant sufficiently. In addition, the stanchions could rotate due to wind, etc., and the plants could not be fixed securely.

The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and by using a material which is rich in elasticity and easy to be molded, it can be bent, bent or rotated without increasing the size of the plant. Correspondingly, it is possible to reliably support the support to the thickness of the trunk, and yet to provide a pillar for preventing the plant from collapsing because the plant does not grow as a soft and poor trunk due to moderate flexibility. That is the purpose.

[0007]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the plant fall prevention strut of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 1, has ribs at the portion which is in the ground when the strut body 10 is inserted into the soil. At least one 12 is provided, and at least a plant support tool 14 having a plurality of engaging parts 16 and an engaging part fixing tool 18 are provided at a portion which is exposed on the ground when the pillar body 10 is inserted into the soil. The feature is that one set is provided.

In this case, it is preferable that the pillar main body 10 has a flat portion 20 on the upper portion thereof. In addition, it is desirable that the support body 10 has a hole 22 in the upper portion thereof. Further, it is desirable that the support body 10 has a stopper 24 on the upper portion thereof. Further, as shown in FIG. 5, the plant support 14 is attached to one side of the short cylinder 32, a part of which is cut away along the axial direction, and the engaging portion fixture 18 is attached to the other side. In addition, it is desirable that the short cylinder 32 be configured to be attachable to and detachable from the column main body 10.
