Abstract
A tool (1) for insertion into trees comprises a first proximal end (3), a second distal end (4) and a body (2) axially extended between the first and second ends (3,4), wherein the second distal end (4) is of the cuneiform type provided with a linear edge (6) to promote the insertion of the tool (1) into a tree trunk (A), the edge being (6) linearly extended in a direction almost orthogonal to a longitudinal axis (Y) of the body (2), which is provided with a cross section (10) having a bi-convex lenticular shape.
Claims10
A tool for insertion into trees comprising a first proximal end, a second distal end and a body axially extending between said first and second end said second distal end being of cuneiform type provided with a linear edge to favour the insertion of said tool into a trunk of tree, said edge being linearly extended in almost orthogonal direction to a longitudinal axis of said body, wherein said body is provided with a cross section having biconvex lenticular shape.
The device for injecting or infusing fluids into trees comprising:
- an insertion tool according to one of the preceding claims,
- a striker comprising a housing for said first proximal end and a free head susceptible to receiving a thrust or traction force for favouring the insertion of said tool into a trunk of tree or extracting said tool from said tree, respectively, said housing and head being almost aligned with said longitudinal axis.
