Abstract
A method and apparatus for training plant limbs. The plant limb training apparatus has a first plate and a second plate. The first plate has a bar extending from a first fulcrum portion and a first support arm at the distal end, and the second plate has a second support arm extending from the distal end and a hole for the bar to fit into when the second plate is disposed on the first plate. The second plate has a partial gear on the fulcrum portion. A pin extending from the first support arm fits into the partial gear, thus securing the position of the first plate and the second plate, while allowing the two plates to rotate. The plant limb training apparatus may also have only one plate in a curved shape, with three arms, at least two of which have steps.
Claims20
A plant limb training apparatus, comprising:
- a first plate,
- wherein the first plate comprises a bar extending outward at a first fulcrum portion,
- wherein the first plate comprises a first support arm extending outward near the distal end of the first plate,
- wherein a pin is disposed on the first support arm extending partially toward the bar;
- and
- a second plate,
- wherein the second plate comprises a hole at a second fulcrum portion,
- wherein the second plate comprises a second support arm extending outward near the distal end of the second plate,
- wherein the rounded edge of the second plate near the second fulcrum portion comprises a partial gear, and
- wherein the bar of the first plate is disposed in the hole of the second plate thus creating a fulcrum point at the first and second fulcrum portions, and the pin on the first support arm is substantially close to the partial gear of the second plate.
A plant limb training apparatus, comprising:
- a first plate and a second plate,
- wherein the first plate contains a first support arm extending outward near the distal end of the first plate,
- wherein the second plate contains a second support arm extending outward near the distal end of the second plate,
- wherein the edge of the second plate near the fulcrum point comprises a partial rounded gear,
- wherein the first plate and second plate are rotatably and axially connected at a fulcrum point,
- wherein the first plate contains a pin disposed on the first support arm that extends partially toward the fulcrum point;
- and
- wherein pin is substantially close to the partial gear of the second plate.
A plant limb training apparatus, comprising:
- a curved plate with a flat surface;
- a first support arm;
- a second support arm;
- and
- a third support arm,
- wherein the first support arm, the second support arm, and the third support arm are disposed on the curved plate, with each support arm extending outward from the curved plate at an approximately 90 degree angle,
- wherein the first support arm and the third support arm are located near the ends of the curved plate,
- wherein the second support arm is located between the first support arm and the third support arm, and
- wherein the first support arm and the third support arm each have at least one step that creates at least one ledge.
