Another major advantage is that the cover can be adapted to plant boxes of different sizes, in which the long walls and the top wall to different plant box lengths can be cut to size, with the connecting end walls remaining unchanged and with the Cut longitudinal walls and top wall can then be put together to form covers of different lengths.

The cover kit according to the invention is also suitable as a mini greenhouse in a garden bed.

In addition to the vegetation-appropriate execution of the kit cover it also has a shapely external appearance and, thanks to its extremely comfortable handling, a high one Use value.

On the drawings, an exemplary embodiment is according to the invention shown, which is explained in more detail below. It shows:

Pig. 1 is a perspective view of a planter with a cover,

Pig. 2 shows a perspective view of a cover wall arranged in the plant box Binstecknutea for doffing longitudinal walls.

Hit 1o is a plant box (flower box) called, which can be equipped with a cover (cover hood) formed from a kit.

This cover according to the invention has two identical end walls 11, each with one in the plant box 1o and thus the earth located therein insertable part 17 and a protruding from the plant box 1o upwards, The receiving part 18 is bordered with two, in HTöhenrichcung extending insertion grooves 19 provided, into which, on the one hand, a rear longitudinal wall 12 and, on the other hand, a front longitudinal wall 15 can be detachably inserted; the rear longitudinal wall 12 is equipped with a height-pivotable (hinged roof wall 13, oo that these walls 11,12,13,15 form the cover which is releasably placed on the plant box 1o *

The two end walls 11 are arranged in the two length end regions and thus in the end faces of the plant box 1o and the two longitudinal walls 12, 15 extend on the rear and front longitudinal side of the planter

over its entire length between the S-end walls 11
and the roof wall 13 extends at a distance above the
Plant box 1o also over its entire length and
entire width.

The plug-in part 17 of the end wall 11 is in the basic shape
angular, preferably square or rectangular, and has a width and height that match the internal dimensions of the 3eweil! gen, planter 1o is adapted so that this is in the
Plant box 1o can be inserted.

At this plug-in part 17 closes up eintei lig the receiving part 18, which is widened in the width direction upwards on both sides so that it has a trapezoidal shape and the upper one, at a distance above
of the planter 1o running edge which forms the larger trapezoidal rope.

At the obliquely from top to bottom and towards each other vertical edges of this trapezoidal Aufnahmeteileβ 18 each have an insertion groove 19 formed in the
Löhenrichtung the entire height (slope) of Aufnahmeteileβ 18 occupies. These provided at both height edges
Insertion grooves 19 are formed by U-profiles 19a, the

The insertion grooves 19 are in the direction of the hole (longitudinal direction)

whereby the Binschiebiefe the two longitudinal walls 12.15
is determined. This insertion limit 2o is in
Transition area between receiving and inserting part 18,17.

The upper transverse edge of the receiving part 18 formed a
Support surface 21 for the roof wall 13; this support surface 21 is preferably formed by an angled portion of the receiving part 18, which can be directed outwards or inwards.

The end wall 11 is preferably made in one piece from plastic and its two parts 17, 18 form plate parts, the plug-in grooves 19 being formed in the plate-shaped receiving part 18 and the bearing surface 21 from the upper one
The edge of the plate or a molded profiling is formed is1

The plate-shaped insert 17 can also be provided with molded profile strips 22 on the edge for stabilization tion (see. Dashed-dotted line in Fig. 2).

The two longitudinal walls 12, 15 and the roof wall 13 are made of plastic plates that are rectangular in their basic shape, preferably so-called double-walled plates with thermal insulation properties
educated.

The roof wall 13 is connected to the rear longitudinal wall 12 so that it can be pivoted in height by means of hinges H or other types of joints and is connected by a display part 16
can be locked in one or more vertically pivoted positions relative to the front longitudinal wall 15.
It is also preferred to design all of the walls 11, 12, 13, 15 to be transparent.

82/646

The plant box cover is made by inserting the two end walls 11 with their plug-in parts 17 in the plant box 1o and then inserting the "two Längswär 12, 15 into the insertion grooves 19 - the rear longitudinal wall 12 formed in the rear and the front longitudinal wall 15 in the front hats 19 of the two end walls 11, wherein the roof wall 13 located on the rear longitudinal wall 12 rests on the upper transverse edges 21 of the end walls 11 and thus the hood is closed.

Since the two end walls 11 above the Pflanzkaetens 1o widening outwards - transversely to the longitudinal direction of the plant box Have receiving parts 18, the two longitudinal walls 12, 15 are inclined upwards and outwards and the roof wall 13 is wider than the planting box, which makes the The cover hood covering the plants in the box 1o in the longitudinal direction of the plant box 1o is made uniform, but widening in the width direction upwards.

In a preferred manner, the inclination of the edges of the receiving part 18, which slopes upwards and out of the blue, is the same large - but there is also the possibility of designing these edges with different inclines, so that as a result, the front or rear longitudinal wall 15, 12 is flatter or steeper.
