The operation handle includes a link portion engaged with the main handle on one side as viewed from the rotation fulcrum and a lever operation portion on the other side as viewed from the rotation fulcrum. The clincher arm is configured to rotate in a closing direction with respect to the main handle when the lever operation portion and the main handle are gripped. The binding machine for gardening further comprises a cover member configured to cover the link portion.

A binding machine for gardening includes a main handle to draw out a tape, a clincher arm rotatably attached to the main handle, and a tape gripping device attached to the clincher arm to grip the tape. The tape gripping device includes a support portion, a gripping member, a gripping member urging unit, a lock member and a lock member urging unit. The support portion is provided along a drawing direction of the tape. The gripping member is provided to face the support portion. The gripping member urging unit urges the gripping member toward the support portion. The lock member is engaged with the gripping member to hold the gripping member against an urging force of the gripping member urging unit. The lock member urging unit urges the lock member in an engaging direction with the gripping member. The lock member is rotatably attached to the clincher arm.

A binding machine for gardening includes a binding machine main body, a magazine attached to the binding machine main body and loaded with a tape, and a clincher arm rotatably attached to the binding machine main body and configured to draw the tape out of the magazine and bind an object to be bound which is wound by the tape. The magazine includes a housing in which the tape is loaded, a boss provided at a center of the housing and configured to support a reel around which the tape is wound, and an abutting member rotatably attached to the boss and abuts against an inner peripheral surface of the reel.

This tying machine ties a first object and a second object together by using a staple comprising a first leg portion, a second leg portion, and a body portion connecting the first leg portion and the second leg portion, the staple having an opening formed between the first leg portion and the second leg portion. The tying machine comprises: a first displacement unit that displaces the first leg portion to be engageable with the first object; and a second displacement unit that surrounds the second object with the first leg portion, the second leg portion, and the body portion and displaces the second leg portion to be engageable with the first object. The second displacement unit may be configured to be able to displace the second leg portion to a position intersecting with the first leg portion in a top view.

A binding machine includes: a magazine configured to hold a staple that includes a first leg portion and a second leg portion, and that has an opening between the first leg portion and the second leg portion; a driver configured to move the staple held by the magazine in a forward direction with the opening at the front; a guiding portion configured to guide an inside of the first leg portion when the staple is moved by the driver; and a displacement portion configured to bind an object to be bound inserted into the opening by displacing the first leg portion of the staple moved by the driver. The guiding portion retracts from a guide position for guiding the inside of the first leg portion when the staple moves by a predetermined distance.

There is provided a binding machine for binding a first object and a second object by using a staple that includes a first leg portion, a second leg portion, and a main body portion that connects the first leg portion and the second leg portion and that opens toward a forward direction. The binding machine includes: a first displacement portion configured to displace the first leg portion so as to surround the first object; a second displacement portion configured to displace the second leg portion such that the second object is surrounded by the first leg portion, the second leg portion, and the main body portion; and a guide portion configured to guide the first object in a direction approaching the first leg portion.

A user platform includes an input to receive one or more inputs from a user, a display, and a processor operatively connected to the input and the display. The processor is configured or programmed to control the display to display a suggested cut-point for an agricultural item, and the processor is configured or programmed to confirm that the suggested cut-point is appropriately located, delete the suggested cut-point, or revise the suggested cut-point based on one or more inputs received by the input.

A method includes generating an image, segmenting the image to identify a component of an agricultural item, detecting one or more agricultural features of the agricultural item based on the image, the one or more agricultural features being associated with the component of the agricultural item, generating a two-dimensional grab-point based on the component of the agricultural item and the one or more agricultural features, and generating a three-dimensional grab-point based on the two-dimensional grab-point and a depth estimation of the agricultural item.

A method for generating an agricultural cut-point for an agricultural item includes capturing an image of the agricultural item, generating a depth estimation of the agricultural item, segmenting the image of the agricultural item to generate a segmented image that identifies different segments of the agricultural item, detecting an agricultural feature of the agricultural item based on the image of the agricultural item, generating a two-dimensional cut-point based on the segmented image and the agricultural feature, and generating a three-dimensional cut-point based on the two-dimensional cut-point and the depth estimation of the agricultural item.
