摘要： An apparatus for constructing trellis systems, particularly for fruit vines. An apparatus may include a vertical post with a slot for slidably receiving a horizontal crossarm. In certain embodiments, an apparatus may include a vertical post, a horizontal crossarm, and a pair of diagonal crossarms. A vertical post may have slots for slidably receiving a horizontal crossarm and diagonal crossarms. A horizontal crossarm may also have slots for slidably receiving diagonal crossarms. Wire notches may be formed into a vertical post, horizontal crossarm, and/or a diagonal crossarm for attachment to a second apparatus or another stationary object, or for anchoring an apparatus to the ground. The present invention allows for a trellis system which is quickly and easily assembled, and highly durable.

摘要： A gripping arrangement (10) comprises a wound portion (12) disposable around a main support (100), and a holding formation (14, 16) for holding a force applying arrangement (22). A force applied to the holding formation (14, 16) in a first direction to extend the wound portion (12) in said first direction can effect a contracting movement on the wound portion (12) in a second direction transverse to the first direction.

摘要： An apparatus and method for training a grape vine. The apparatus is a swing arm supporting a linear grid composed of transverse and longitudinal elements that are configured to result in a network of spaces that are sized to capture and separate the grape vine shoots. The apparatus is mobile within the vine canopy serving various functions as the growing season progresses. The mobility of the grid apparatus allows repositioning throughout the growing season while still retaining the shoots within the grid openings.

摘要： A heated spray system for frost protection and prevention is described. Heated water, such as groundwater, is delivered through a spray system to the area surrounding the irrigated crops, thus increasing the temperature near the crops and preventing frost damage. Surface water is provided, by a drip irrigation line. The crops are protected from excessive irrigation with the addition of protective covers, a protective curtain, and a drainage system. When spraying groundwater for temperature control, the covers, curtain, and drainage system prevent the water from reaching the roots of the crops, and thus prevent the groundwater from damaging the roots due to contaminants and pollutants in the groundwater.

摘要： A collapsible and portable trellis which supports growing plants and increases their overall yield. The trellis includes a first half assembly, a second half assembly, and a locking mechanism. The first half assembly and the second half assembly are hingedly connected to each other through the locking mechanism and each includes a first lateral beam, a second lateral beam, a first crossbar, a second crossbar, a lattice, and an at least one support leg. The first lateral beam and the second lateral beam are positioned parallel and offset to each other. The first crossbar and the second crossbar are perpendicularly connected in between the first lateral beam and the second lateral beam to yield an overall rectangular shape. The support leg is connected to the second crossbar. The lattice is mounted to the first lateral beam, the second lateral beam, the first crossbar, and the second crossbar.

摘要： An apparatus and method for training a grape vine. The apparatus is a linear grid composed of transverse and longitudinal elements that are configured to result in a network of spaces that are sized to substantially provide a separate space for each vine shoot. The apparatus is mobile within the vine canopy serving various functions as the growing season progresses. The mobility of the grid apparatus allows repositioning throughout the growing season while still retaining the shoots within the grid openings.

摘要： A plant support apparatus and related method for supporting a plant are disclosed. The plant support apparatus includes a first support layer including a first plurality of support arms having first ends and second ends. The first ends are coupled at a corresponding plurality of first support junctions and the second ends are coupled at a corresponding plurality of second support junctions. A second support layer includes a second plurality of support arms having first ends and second ends. The first ends are coupled at a corresponding plurality of third support junctions and the second ends are coupled at a corresponding plurality of fourth support junctions. The second and third support junctions are selectively coupled for concurrent movement. Subsequent layers of support are sequentially added to accommodate and support the plant as it grows.

摘要： A guide and fastening element is used to draw together and keep joined together the cables which guide the stocks and which force their vertical growth. The stocks may be confined to the space between said cables, and that it is formed by a warped structure made with wire in a rigid material which has two branches in the common vertex whereof an elastic element is disposed, each branch being bent by one or more points forming different stretches and the free end of each branch having a hooking element in order to hold the cable of the opposite side of a post of the vine.

摘要： A trellis wire support apparatus and a trellis system and method for use in vineyards and the like. The trellis wire support comprises a body having at least one a fold configured to releasibly engage a corresponding slot in a support element, and at least one clip or hook configured to releasibly engage a trellis wire. The trellis systems comprise at least one support element having a slot therein, and at least one trellis wire support comprising at least one clip configured to releasibly engage a trellis wire and a fold configured to releasibly engage the slot in the support element. The trellis system may additionally comprise a cross arm, with the support element configured to couple to the cross arm. The cross arm may include parallel ridges extending along its length, and the support element may have notches adjacent each end thereof that are configured to engage the ridges on the cross arm. The trellis system may support multiple trellis wires in multiple positions depending upon the particular vigor of the plant, vine or tree by nature of soil conditions, climate, root stock, variety or other factor.
