RU220731U1 - Root remover - Google Patents

Abstract

The utility model relates to the field of vegetable gardening and horticulture and can be used for weeding beds, greenhouses, greenhouses and flower beds on personal plots, vegetable gardens, orchards and summer cottages. The weed removal device provides weeding of plants in a more accessible way due to the active two-way capture of the weed root, while ensuring minimal impact on the soil around the weed, which can be important when the weed to be removed is located close to grown vegetable and ornamental plants, and also reduces labor costs and time weeding by increasing the efficiency of weed removal. The technical solution is lightweight, simple and convenient to use, does not require installation, and is also relatively low in cost. The technical result is aimed at eliminating the shortcomings of the previously mentioned technical solutions and is achieved due to the relatively small size of the device, the possibility of local elimination of weeds, without affecting nearby growing vegetable or ornamental plants.

Description

Technical field

The utility model relates to the field of vegetable gardening and horticulture and can be used for weeding beds, greenhouses, greenhouses and flower beds on personal plots, vegetable gardens, orchards and summer cottages.

Prior Art

From the prior art, a device for extracting the root system of plants is known (patent for utility model No. 180544), which has the following features: it contains hinged levers forming an X-shape, having a handle in the upper part, and a working element in the lower part, made in in the form of two telescopic blades with a rounded blade and a bending depth of 25 mm, rigidly attached to the lower parts of the arms at an angle of 35°. The handles at the top of the levers are located at an obtuse angle to them. The disadvantages of this solution are the dimensions of the device, as well as the complexity of the technical device.

A manual cultivator is also known (utility model patent RU 120311), in which the working body consists of curved pointed teeth, oriented in the direction of movement of loosening the soil and connected at the top to each other in the form of a contour frame with equal sides, on which a vertical stand with rotary handle. The disadvantages of this solution are the dimensions of the device, as well as the inability to target weeds due to the size and configuration of the device. The utility model is aimed at eliminating these disadvantages.

Disclosure of the essence of the utility model

The claimed utility model, like the indicated analogues, includes working parts.

The technical objective of the claimed utility model is to simplify weeding of beds, greenhouses, greenhouses and flower beds, as well as to achieve easy accessibility and efficiency of weeding with this technical component.

The technical result of the claimed utility model is to ensure the removal of weeds in a more accessible way due to the active two-way capture of the weed root, while minimizing the impact on the soil layer, as well as on other plants around the weed, which may relate to cultivated vegetable and ornamental plants due to precise introduction of branches into the soil and local coverage of the weed root

The technical result is achieved by spreading the jaws, introducing them into the soil, capturing the weed and removing it by pulling it out by the root.

The utility model is illustrated by the following illustrations:

In fig. 1 shows a general view of the device:

1 - branches

2 - handles

3 - movable joint (hinge)

4 - spring

In fig. 2 shows options for immersing the device in the soil and covering the weed with it:

1 - branches

2 - soil

3 - weed root

Implementation of a utility model

The device for removing weeds is a hand-held tool that has two jaws (Fig. 1, 1) for capturing the roots of weeds and two handles (Fig. 1, 2) for adjusting the position of the jaws and pulling out weeds from the soil.

The device is carried out as follows: the jaws of the device are spread to the required size, according to the width of the weed root. The spread jaws (Fig. 2, 1) are introduced into the soil (Fig. 2, 2) along the root of the weed (Fig. 2, 3) as close to the root as possible. For long roots of weeds, the branches are inserted as deep as possible, as long as the length of the branches and soil density allow. The root should be between the branches. By squeezing the handles, the jaws grasp the weed root as tightly as possible. The concave, uneven inner surface of the jaws contributes to a tighter grip of the weed root. For ease of opening the jaws, the device has a spring. After capturing the weed root, the weed is removed by pulling it out by the root.

Thus, the claimed technical solution ensures the achievement of the stated technical result, namely, simplification of the process of weeding plants, while minimally affecting the soil and vegetable and ornamental plants grown nearby.

Claims (1)

A device for removing weeds manually, containing two jaws and two handles for adjusting the position of the jaws and pulling out weeds from the soil, the jaws being made of steel, having an elongated, tapering shape and pointed edges, as well as an uneven and concave inner side, connected with handles, while the handles are also made of steel, connected by a movable hinge joint, as well as a spring on the inside of the handles.
