GROWTH POOL SYSTEM AND ITS COMPONENTS

The invention relates to a growing pool system for ornamental plants or plantations and parts thereof, in which system a frame to be stored in place is embedded in the ground for the above-mentioned plants, which preserves space for the growing pool belonging to the system at any time to be brought into the above-mentioned space.

Transportable growth boxes for plantings and ornamental plants are already known, e.g. Finnish patent applications 803/71 and 843572. The growth boxes shown can serve as a growth platform for the utilization of the whole plant, and it is characteristic of the boxes that planting and soil filling are carried out in a different place than the cultivation.

The disadvantage of using the above-mentioned growth boxes is, if you want to immerse the box in the ground, the excavation work that has to be done every time the box is brought to the grave, for example, and when the box is taken out, the resulting pit must be filled.

The system according to the invention and its components avoid the above-mentioned disadvantages. The invention is characterized by what is stated in claims 1 and 4.

The main advantages of the invention are the easy installation of ornamental plants or plantings in a pre-reserved space and the avoidance of digging the soil, storing it and filling the resulting pit. When switching to the system according to the invention, it is only necessary to produce a space on the ground only once, which remains unchanged thereafter and to keep space reserved for growth.

In the following, the invention will be explained in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 shows the growth of 1 child.

Figure 1 shows a growing pool with lifting handles 3, the upper part of which is bordered by a widening 2. When installing the pool on the ground, the edge 2 is level and prevents weeds growing close to the pool vegetation and allows the mower to run very close to the pool and even on the edge. mechanically. The body of the basin comprises a knee section, which is supported by a midsole. The knee section has openings for 4 overflows. The movement of the handle 3 in the rim 2 is shown in a partial view according to Fig. 2. The growth basin is preferably projecting slightly forward at its front, either in a curved shape as shown in Figure 1 or also in accordance with the desired broken line.

Figures 3 and 4 show an intermediate base 5 to be placed in the basin 1, which is almost completely provided with holes 6. At the ends of the intermediate base there are protrusions 8, from under which the overflow water exits through the holes 4 of the basin 1. The midsole also has cups 7 with a bottom perforation 10 extending into the irrigation water space. The irrigation water is led to the bottom of the basin 1 via a pipe 9. It is preferred that the cups 7 filled with soil do not reach all the way to the bottom of the basin 1, and thus do not absorb all the water from the bottom of the basin 1 in a short time.

Figures 5 and 6 show a part 11 of the system to be embedded in the ground and stored there, which is in the form of an open frame at both ends. The frame may also have a solid or perforated bottom. To prevent the frame from rising, the side walls or part of them are parts of a downwardly extending cone or complex. The mouths of the openings in the frame are provided with 3 89999 stiffeners 13 or an inwardly bent edge such as an opening in the top. Due to the space requirements of the lifting handles, openings 12 are left at the top. The walls of the frame can be lightened by means of holes and can have 1 stiffeners. The frame 11 is also preferably projecting forward.

Figures 7 and 8 show a lid 14 which is convex and provided with recesses 15. Candles or plants can be placed in the recesses. The lower surface of the cover has a suitable edge 17 inside the frame 11, which further has an extension 16 for locking the cover to the inner surface of the upper edge of the frame 11. The lid may advantageously comprise decorative ornaments on its upper surface. The deck 14 protects the space bounded by the frame 11 when the pool 1 is not in the frame, i.e. especially during the winter. The lid can also be nested at least partially.

Figure 9 shows how the frame 11 and the growth basin 1 according to the system are mounted on the grave in front of the tombstone 18. The frame is embedded in the ground with the upper edge flush with the ground and the cover is removed and a planted growth basin 1 is introduced into the frame. Irrigation can be carried out through a pipe 9, whereby a water layer is formed on the bottom of the basin 1. . ka plants use quickly until the cups 7 no longer reach the water. After this, the water left in the pool remains non-volatile for a long time and still keeps the air space below the midsole moist and prevents the substrate from drying out completely.

The system makes it much easier and faster to plant large areas when the plants are repeatedly brought to the same places. The system is best suited for cemetery and park plantings. In this case, the mulching and planting of the growing pool is carried out centrally, for example in a greenhouse garden, and the growing pools are brought to the location by the vehicle in larger batches. This considerably reduces the amount of work to be done both in the spring during plantings and in the autumn, when the growing pots are fetched out centrally. Since the ponds are removed from the mulch in this system, it is possible, for example, to collect the soil in the gardens and reuse some of it in the next 4,89999 years.

In particular, it is to be understood that the invention is in no way intended to be limited to the above-mentioned embodiment, but that many modifications are possible within the scope of the inventive idea set forth in the claims. The frame, pool and lid may be round or angular in shape, and some may be made of plastic and some of other weatherproof material.
