Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a light weight box for cultivating plants. SOLUTION: This box for cultivating plants is equipped with multiple wave- shaped bottom plates 1 joined and fitted by unit bottom plates each other and side part frames 2 for supporting the lower part of both sides of the bottom plates. The bottom plates 1 is preferably formed with a synthetic resin for making them light-weighted. The side part frames are similarly formed. Each of the individual bottom plates is a unit bottom plate formed to have a prescribed width, and a necessary area is secured by linking and fitting them. Anchor bolts 3 are driven into a surface 6 (e.g. a concrete surface of a roof top) where the box is installed by penetrating them through the vicinity of the side part of the bottom plates 1 positioned at the both sides and the bottom surface of the side part frames 2 for preventing the floating up or flying away of the box by wind. Also, it is preferable to have gaps 7 between the lower surface of the bottom plates 1 and the surface 6 on which the box is installed.

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a case for plant cultivation suitable for rooftop greening of a building or the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, there has been much interest in greening rooftops of buildings and the like. As a case for plant cultivation for such applications,
Many bowls and pot-shaped casings are often used. Also known is a greening system that is constructed by enclosing it in large blocks such as bricks and concrete blocks.

[0003]

However, it is difficult to construct a large-area greening system in the former case, and it is easy to construct a large-area greening system in the latter case, but there is a problem to be solved. It should be. The present invention, in view of such problems to be solved,
An object is to provide a lightweight housing for plant cultivation.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention is a housing for plant cultivation, which comprises a corrugated bottom plate and side frames that support the lower surfaces of both sides of the bottom plate. In addition, it is a casing for plant cultivation, which includes a plurality of wavy bottom plates in which unit bottom plates are fitted and connected to each other, and side frames that support the lower surfaces on both sides of these bottom plates.
And, it is preferable that there is a gap between the lower surface of the bottom plate and the surface on which this housing is installed.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described, but it is merely an exemplary embodiment adopted based on the present invention, and the present invention is based on matters peculiar to the embodiment. However, the technical scope of the present invention should be determined based on the matters shown in the claims and the matters substantially equivalent to the matters.

The embodiment shown in the drawings is a casing for plant cultivation, which is provided with a plurality of wave-shaped bottom plates 1 in which unit bottom plates are fitted and connected to each other, and side frames 2 which support lower surfaces on both sides of these bottom plates 1. is there. The bottom plate 1 is preferably made of synthetic resin for weight reduction. The same applies to the side frame 2. Each bottom plate 1 is a unit bottom plate having a specified width, and they are fitted and connected to each other to secure a required area.

Then, anchor bolts 3 are driven into a surface 6 (for example, a concrete surface on the roof) where the housing is installed by penetrating the vicinity of the sides of the bottom plate 1 located on both sides and the bottom surface of the side frame 2 and by the wind. Prevents floating and scattering. In addition, end frames 4 are located at both ends of the bottom plate 1, and these are fixed by bolts 5
It is fixed to the side frame 2 with.

In this way, it is possible to easily secure a cultivation area by appropriately combining two or more bottom plates 1 and to make it relatively lightweight. Of course, one wavy bottom plate 1 and this bottom plate 1
You may comprise the case for plant cultivation of the minimum structural area with the side frame 2 which supports both lower surfaces. Further, it is preferable that there is a gap 7 between the lower surface of the bottom plate 1 and the surface 6 on which this housing is installed. That is, the gap 7 helps secure the ventilation passage, and the surface 6
Prevents dirt and moss from becoming relatively easy.

In FIG. 2, 11 is a non-woven fabric water-permeable mat, 12 is lightweight soil, and 13 is a vegetation fluff nonwoven fabric.
