    摘要: The invention refers to a tying system employing an accessory bearing a quick attachment hook, for tying a plastic cover film for agricultural crops such as soft fruit covers. Cultivation of soft fruits in covered space has been growing in recent decades. Several solutions have been developed including greenhouses or gable systems. The placement, fastening and fixing of the plastic film is achieved with ropes, elastic cords or soft PVC tubing. However, the cost of binding the plastic film is significant as skilled staff and considerable amounts of man hours are required to tie the plastic film to the supporting structure. Tying the film, in most cases, is carried out by employing knots on grommets that the plastic films.

    摘要: A plant cage includes an annular base configured to surround a portion of a plant. The base includes a plurality of circumferentially spaced stake openings formed therethrough. Each of the stake openings is inclined relative to a central axis of the base. The base is formed from a first segment releasably coupled to a second segment. The plant cage further includes a plurality of stakes. Each of the stakes is configured to extend through one of the stake openings formed in the base. A first portion of each of the stakes is received in the ground and a second portion of each of the stakes extends away from the ground into a substantially conical shape.

    摘要: A tree support assembly may include three or more adjustable legs and a support ring. The support ring may include a first half and a second half that each includes a first end and a second end, a hinge pivotally connecting the respective first ends of the first half and the second half, and a protrusion extending from the second end of the first half. Additionally, the support ring may include an opening disposed within the second end of the second half, in which the protrusion of the first half may be positioned within the opening of the second half in a closed-ring configuration. The support ring may also include a securing feature and an engaging feature that engages with an arm of the securing feature in the closed-ring configuration. In addition, the support ring may include three or more receiving cavities that each receives one of the adjustable legs.

    摘要: Provided is a supporting structure for a fruit tree branch for supporting a side branch of a fruit tree by using a supporting strap having a predetermined width or greater. Even when load due to the side branch increases by providing a plurality of inserters into which the supporting strap is inserted and combined with a length adjusting member multiple times, the supporting strap may be prevented from easily slipping or escaping from the length adjusting member, thereby fixing the side branch to a wanted position.

    摘要: A post mounting system includes a post and at least one device for mounting to the post. The post includes a first elongate flange and at least one other elongate flange projecting from a proximal edge of the first flange. A portion of the first flange is deformed to facilitate mounting of the device. The device is located at a given position along the first flange. Upon being located in the given position, the device interacts with the deformed portion to resist lateral movement away from the first flange. The device can include a body and projections that define a recess. Remote ends of the projections are spaced from each other by a distance that is less than a lateral width of the deformed portion. The device can be positioned onto the post and receive the deformed portion in the recess to enable mounting of the device.
