Abstract

An adjustable artificial branch is provided, including a trunk and a plurality of leaves which are inserted into the trunk, where the leaf includes a twig and a vane connected on the twig; one end of the twig is injection-molded on the trunk; and an angle adjustment mechanism and a height adjustment mechanism for twig position adjustment are arranged on a connection position of the twig and the trunk. After the leaves are inserted into the trunk, positions and angles of the leaves can be adjusted according to a density of the leaves and a gap condition among the leaves. The leaves not only can be adjusted through auto-rotation, but also all leaves on a same skin layer can be rotated through the angle adjustment mechanism. In addition, height of the leaves on the same outer skin layer can be further adjusted through the height adjustment mechanism.

Claims
