Decorative tree and branch structure thereof

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a decorative tree and a branch structure thereof. The branch structure includes a branch body and a hook mounted on the branch body. The hook has a bent portion facing the branch body and configured to support a to-be-placed object. When the branch structure is decorated with the to-be-placed object (e.g., an ornament), the to-be-placed object may be hung directly on the bent portion, thereby realizing quick installation of the to-be-placed object. In addition, the bent portion can also improve stability of the to-be-placed object after installation and reduce a risk of fall-off of the to-be-placed object.

1 . A branch structure, comprising:
 a branch body; and   a hook mounted on the branch body, the hook having a bent portion, the bent portion facing the branch body and configured to support a to-be-placed object.   
     
     
         2 . The branch structure of  claim 1 , wherein the hook comprises a first rod body and a second rod body connected to each other, a first end of the first rod body is connected to the branch body, a first end of the second rod body is arranged at an angle with the first rod body to form the bent portion, and the bent portion and the branch body form a limiting groove surrounded by the bent portion and the branch body. 
     
     
         3 . The branch structure of  claim 2 , wherein the second rod body is arranged obliquely relative to an axial direction of the branch body, a second end of the second rod body is closer to the branch body than the first end of the second rod body, and there is a gap between the second end of the second rod body and the branch body to form an access port, the access port being communicated with the limiting groove. 
     
     
         4 . The branch structure of  claim 3 , wherein the second end of the second rod body is provided with a limiting protrusion, the limiting protrusion being configured to limit the to-be-placed object to be separated from the limiting groove along the second end of the second rod body. 
     
     
         5 . The branch structure of  claim 4 , wherein the limiting protrusion extends towards the branch body. 
     
     
         6 . The branch structure of  claim 4 , wherein the first rod body, the second rod body, and the limiting protrusion are integrally formed. 
     
     
         7 . The branch structure of  claim 3 , wherein the second end of the second rod body is provided with a guide portion, wherein the guide portion is configured to guide the to-be-placed object to move towards the access port to enter the limiting groove. 
     
     
         8 . The branch structure of  claim 7 , wherein the guide portion is arranged obliquely relative to the branch body, and an end of the guide portion connected to the second rod body is closer to the branch body than an end of the guide portion away from the second rod body. 
     
     
         9 . The branch structure of  claim 7 , wherein a junction between the guide portion and the second end of the second rod body has a circular arc transition; and
 wherein a junction between the first end of the second rod body and the first rod body has a circular arc transition.   
     
     
         10 . The branch structure of  claim 7 , wherein the first rod body, the second rod body, and the guide portion are integrally formed. 
     
     
         11 . The branch structure of  claim 1 , wherein the hook is integrally formed on the branch body; or
 wherein the hook is detachably connected to the branch body.   
     
     
         12 . The branch structure of  claim 1 , wherein:
 the branch body is provided with needles, and each of the needles has a length of L1 along a first direction;   the hook has a length of L2 along the first direction; and   the first direction is perpendicular to the axial direction of the branch body, and L2 is less than L1.   
     
     
         13 . A decorative tree, comprising the branch structure of  claim 1 .
