Abstract

The support consists of a frame (1) containing a volume of soil in which the roots of the plants are grown, made from rigid panels (2) of netting (6) covering and supporting an inner layer (7) of a material which the plants can pass through so that their leaves and flowers can develop. The inner volume of soil can be in a truncated pyramid shape, with the outer panels made in sections (3-5) which can fit one inside another for transport and be stacked to create the required volume. A second inner supporting frame (8) can be used, with the soil container in the space between outer and inner supports, and the volume containing the earth can contain perforated tubes for watering. The support can be made in a wide variety of shapes for covering with plants.

Description

"Support pour massif de plantes en élévation"
Le support de l'invention est caractérisé en ce qu'il comprend une ossature délimitant un volume contenant de la terre destiné à recevoir les racines des plantes et dont les faces latérales comprennent des panneaux rigides en treillis à mailles recouvrant et servant d'appui à une nappe interne réalisée en un matériau susceptible d'être traversé par les plantes pour permettre leur plantation dans la terre et pour permettre le développement de leur feuillage et de leurs fleurs à l'extérieur du volume.
"Support for elevated plant bed"
The support of the invention is characterized in that it comprises a framework delimiting a volume containing soil intended to receive the roots of the plants and the lateral faces of which comprise rigid panels in lattice with mesh covering and serving as support for an internal sheet made of a material capable of being crossed by the plants to allow their planting in the ground and to allow the development of their foliage and their flowers outside the volume.

Suivant une autre caractéristique de l'in- vention, la nappe de matériau est constituée par un film plastique. According to another characteristic of the invention, the sheet of material consists of a plastic film.

Suivant une autre caractéristique de l'invention, les panneaux rigides en treillis sont disposés de manière amovible sur l'ossature. According to another characteristic of the invention, the rigid lattice panels are removably arranged on the frame.

L'invention est représentée à titre d'exemple non limitatif sur les dessins ci-joints dans lesquels
- la figure 1 est une vue en perspective d'un mode de réalisation du support sous la forme d'un tronc de pyramide,
- les figures 2 et 3 sont des vues en perspective de deux autres modes de réalisation.
The invention is shown by way of non-limiting example in the accompanying drawings in which
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an embodiment of the support in the form of a trunk of a pyramid,
- Figures 2 and 3 are perspective views of two other embodiments.

La présente invention a en conséquence pour but la réalisation d'un support pour massif de plantes, qui puisse présenter des formes très variées afin de créer des massifs de plantes et, notamment, de fleurs qui sont en élévation et dont la forme originale peut être adaptée à l'environnement. The present invention therefore aims to achieve a support for beds of plants, which can have very varied shapes in order to create beds of plants and, in particular, flowers which are in elevation and whose original shape can be adapted to the environment.

Sur la figure 1, ce support se compose d'une ossature qui délimite un volume 1 en forme de tronc de pyramide à section carrée et dont les faces latérales sont réalisées à l'aide de panneaux rigides 2 formant des tronçons 3, 4 et 5 de tronc de pyramide. Ces tron çons sont emboîtables, la forme et la surface de la petite base de chaque tronçon correspondant à celles de la grande base de la section adjacente. Les divers tronçons peuvent ainsi être empilés pour aboutir à un tronc de pyramide de grandes dimensions. In FIG. 1, this support consists of a framework which delimits a volume 1 in the form of a trunk of a pyramid with a square section and the lateral faces of which are produced using rigid panels 2 forming sections 3, 4 and 5 of pyramid trunk. These sections are nestable, the shape and the surface of the small base of each section corresponding to those of the large base of the adjacent section. The various sections can thus be stacked to lead to a large pyramid trunk.

Les divers tronçons pourront être assemblés par emboîtement ou par des moyens de fixation quelconques. The various sections can be assembled by interlocking or by any fixing means.

Les panneaux 2 formant les faces latérales du support, sont réalisés en treillis à mailles 6, qui recouvre et reçoit en appui une nappe interne 7 réalisée à l'aide d'un matériau susceptible d'être traversé par les plantes pour permettre leur plantation dans la terre, ainsi que pour permettre le développement du feuillage de ces plantes et de leurs fleurs à lexté- rieur du volume. The panels 2 forming the lateral faces of the support, are made of mesh trellis 6, which covers and receives in support an internal ply 7 produced using a material capable of being traversed by the plants to allow their planting in the earth, as well as to allow the development of the foliage of these plants and their flowers outside the volume.

Cette nappe 7 est de préférence réalisée à l'aide d'un film plastique de façon à pouvoir aisément être perforée par un outil adapté. Le treillis à mailles 6 sera de préférence réalisé à l'aide de fils métalliques mais pourra également être obtenu à l'aide de fils en matière plastique. This ply 7 is preferably made using a plastic film so that it can easily be perforated by a suitable tool. The mesh 6 will preferably be produced using metallic wires but may also be obtained using plastic wires.

Si cela est souhaité, la surface de base du support 1, constituée par la surface de base du tron çon inférieur 5, pourra être obturée par un panneau plein ou ajouré. If desired, the base surface of the support 1, constituted by the base surface of the lower section 5, can be closed off by a solid or perforated panel.

Dans la mesure où le volume du support est important, on pourra envisager de placer au centre de ce support un autre volume 8 dont la forme est adaptée à celle du volume du support 1 afin de délimiter entre eux un espace 9 contenant la terre. La quantité nécessaire de terre est donc, dans ce cas, réduite. Insofar as the volume of the support is large, it will be possible to envisage placing in the center of this support another volume 8 whose shape is adapted to that of the volume of the support 1 in order to delimit between them a space 9 containing the earth. The required amount of soil is therefore reduced in this case.

Cette structure interne 8 pourra présenter également des surfaces latérales réalisées à l'aide de panneaux rigides en treillis à mailles recouvrant et servant d'appui à une nappe externe. Egalement, cette structure interne 8 pourra être réalisée en plusieurs tronçons emboîtables et empilables comme ctest le cas pour le support 1. This internal structure 8 may also have lateral surfaces produced using rigid mesh panels covering and serving to support an external sheet. Also, this internal structure 8 can be produced in several interlocking and stackable sections as is the case for the support 1.

La figure 2 représente une autre forme originale du support1 réalisée dans ce cas sous la forme d'un instrument de musique tel qu'un violon 10 dont le manche 11 dépasse le corps 12 contenant la terre et forme ainsi un motif décoratif dans la partie supérieure du support. FIG. 2 represents another original form of the support 1 produced in this case in the form of a musical instrument such as a violin 10 whose handle 11 exceeds the body 12 containing the earth and thus forms a decorative pattern in the upper part of support.

De préférence dans ce cas, la totalité des faces du corps de l'instrument de musique est réalisé à l'aide de panneaux démontables en treillis à mailles, recouvrant et servant d'appui à la nappe interne 6, cette nappe étant maintenue entre la face interne du treillis par des agrafes, des fils torsadés ou autres. Preferably in this case, all of the faces of the body of the musical instrument are produced using removable panels in a mesh, covering and serving as a support for the internal ply 6, this ply being maintained between the internal face of the trellis by staples, twisted wires or others.

Le support 10 est fixé au sol par des moyens quelconques et, par exemple, par un pied central 13 fiché dans le sol. The support 10 is fixed to the ground by any means and, for example, by a central foot 13 stuck in the ground.

Suivant l'exemple de réalisation de la figure 3, le support est réalisé sous la forme d'un cylindre à section circulaire et l'ossature comprend des panneaux amovibles 13 en forme de demi-cylindres et constituant des panneaux rigides en treillis à mailles. Sur la face interne de ces panneaux est disposée en appui la nappe de matériau susceptible d'être traversée par les plantes lors de la plantation ou lors de leur croissance. According to the embodiment of Figure 3, the support is in the form of a circular section cylinder and the frame comprises removable panels 13 in the form of half-cylinders and constituting rigid mesh panels. On the internal face of these panels is arranged in support the sheet of material likely to be crossed by the plants during planting or during their growth.

Ces panneaux demi-cylindriques sont flxés sur une structure d'assemblage comprenant un tube axial 14 relié par des bras radiaux 15 à des tubes latéraux 16 diamétralement opposés. Sur ces tubes sont fixées 'des ailes 17 assurant le guidage et le maintien des panneaux demi-cylindriques 13. These semi-cylindrical panels are fixed on an assembly structure comprising an axial tube 14 connected by radial arms 15 to lateral tubes 16 diametrically opposite. Wings 17 are fixed on these tubes, ensuring the guiding and maintaining of the semi-cylindrical panels 13.

Le support concernant l'invention pourra également comporter des moyens assurant l'humidification de la terre, comme cela est représenté sur la figure 3, ces moyens étant par exemple constitués par les tubes perforés 18 cintrés ou pliés pour s'adapter à la forme du support et disposés de préférence dans la partie supérieure du support afin d'humidifier la totalité de la hauteur de la terre. The support relating to the invention may also include means ensuring the moistening of the earth, as shown in FIG. 3, these means being for example constituted by the perforated tubes 18 bent or bent to adapt to the shape of the support and preferably arranged in the upper part of the support in order to moisten the entire height of the earth.

Suivant l'exemple de la figure 3, le support est également maintenu verticalement sur le sol par un pied enterré 19.  According to the example in FIG. 3, the support is also held vertically on the ground by a buried foot 19.
