Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、植物活着カプセルに係り、特に、保水性が悪い土壌でも、土壌改良すること無く植物を活着させることができる新規な植物活着カプセルに関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
例えば砂地など保水性が悪い土壌に植栽を行う場合、従来は、保水性の良い客土を入れて土壌改良を施すか、スプリンクラーなどの散水設備を設置したり、敷き藁などのマルチングを施したり、或いは、雨量が多い時季を選んで苗の植付けや播種を行ったりしていた。
【0003】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかしながら、公園造成や植林、農園開拓など大規模な植栽を行う場合に、全面的な土壌改良をしたり多数の散水設備を設置することは工事やその後の維持管理に莫大な費用がかかるし、マルチング処理で済ませるためには、保水性がさほど悪くない土壌に限られたり植生が乾燥を好む植物に限られてしまうといった問題がある。また、雨量が多い時季を選んで苗の植付けや播種を行うというのは、造園や植栽事業が時期的ないし場所的に集中してしまうので、この種の事業の経営効率を悪化させてしまうし、結果的に雨量が少なかった場合は植栽が立ち枯れてしまうことにもなる。
【0004】
本発明は上記した従来の問題点に鑑みて為されたものであり、土壌改良や散水設備を施さなくても、種苗などの植栽材の床土を長期間保水することができて目的の土壌に植物をほぼ確実に活着させることができ、しかも、費用が極めて安く済み、土壌への悪影響も全く無く、また、播種作業を容易に行うことができる画期的な植物活着カプセルを提供することを目的とする。
【0005】
【課題を解決するための手段】
この目的を達成するために、請求項1に記載した植物活着カプセルは、生分解性の紙材料など自然環境下で分解する材料を主たる材料として中空な箱形に形成されると共に透明なフィルムで塞がれた光採り窓を有するほぼ密閉型の殻と、この殻に収納された保水材及び植栽材とを備えたことを特徴とするものである。
【0006】
従って、この植物活着カプセルによれば、保水材に含ませた水が密閉型の殻によって長期間蓄えられ続けると共に、太陽光は光採り窓から殻内に確実に差し込むので、殻内の種や苗、球根といった植栽材を殻の中でほぼ確実に出芽ないし成長させることができる。そして、成長する芽や苗は必然的に光採り窓に向かって伸びて行き、この窓を塞いでいるフィルムを破って殻外に伸びる。しかも、殻はいずれ腐食して形を失うので、殻内で成長する植栽材の根は、地面側を向いている光採り窓を破って土中に伸びるか、少なくとも殻が腐食して膨軟化した後にそれを突き通して土中に伸び、それで当該植物の活着が完了する。
【0007】
しかして、本発明によれば、土壌改良や散水設備を施さなくても、保水性の悪い土壌に対して種苗などの植栽材をほぼ確実に活着させることができ、しかも、紙を主たる材料とした殻は、安価に製作できるために費用が極めて安く済むと共に、やがては分解して当該土壌に埋没して行くので、その土壌に悪影響を及ぼす虞れは全く無いし、植物が活着した後に殻を拾い集めたり処分したりする手間も一切掛からない。
【0008】
本発明において殻内に入れる保水材としては、人工的なもの、例えば、粒状の岩石焼成材や、ゲル状あるいは繊維状の高分子吸収材などを用いれば良いが、施工地の気象条件やカプセルに入れる植栽材の種類によっては、堆肥や腐葉土など保水性の高い天然の保水材を用いても良い。勿論、人工的な保水材と天然の保水材を併用することも差し支えないし、肥効成分を加えればなお望ましい。
【0009】
また、殻の材料としては自然環境下で分解する材料を主たる材料とするものであれば種類を選ばないし、その加工形態についても植栽材の種類や気象条件等に応じて選択すれば良いが、基本的には、殻内の水分が1〜3ケ月程度保持できること、その程度の時間経過で腐食が開始又は十分進行すること、腐食が進むまでは形状を保持する適度な強度を有すること、などを考慮して選定するのが望ましい。
具体的には、比較的厚手の板紙やダンボール原紙、又は古紙などを原料とするパルプモールド、木材の極く薄い板、乳酸系ポリマーなどの生分解性高分子材料等が考えられる。これらの場合、殻の内面に防水処理を施して保水材の水が殻を通って染み出さないようにすることも有効である。
透明なフィルムには微小な孔が多数形成された通気性を有するものを用いるのが望ましい。
【0010】
殻に入れる植栽材は、草木や地被植物や野菜の種や苗や球根、種芋など、基本的には全体が殻内に納まる形のものになるが、挿し木苗や幼少木については、根元だけを殻内に収めた形で設けることも可能である。
種については、これをむきだしのままで殻に入れても良いし、出芽を妨げない素材、例えばメッシュシートや不織布製の袋等に保水材と一緒に詰めた状態で殻に収納しても良い。このようにすると、袋ごと低温貯蔵しておいて植栽後速やかに出芽させるといった出芽管理を容易に行うことができる。勿論、種などを殻に入れたまま低温貯蔵することも可能である。
【0011】
請求項2に記載した植物活着カプセルは、請求項1に記載した植物活着カプセルにおいて、光採り窓を塞いだフィルムに切れ線などの易破れ処理を施したことを特徴とするものである。
このようにすれば、軟弱な芽苗であってもほぼ確実にフィルムを破って殻外に伸びることができる。
【0012】
請求項3に記載した植物活着カプセルは、請求項1又は2に記載した植物活着カプセルにおいて、光採り窓の内周面に雨水取入れ口を設け、殻の外表面には上記雨水取入れ口へ向けて雨水を案内する雨水案内手段を設けたことを特徴とするものである。
このようにすると、殻の外表面に落ちた雨水を積極的に殻内に取り込むことができるので、その分、殻内の保水状態を高めることができるし、雨水取入れ口が通気孔としても機能する。
雨水案内手段としては、例えば、殻の壁に溝や凸条を形成して、それらの一端を雨水取入れ口に連続させれば良い。
【0013】
請求項4に記載した植物活着カプセルは、請求項1から3のいずれかに記載した植物活着カプセルにおいて、殻に薄肉部やミシン線などの易裂れ処理を施したことを特徴とするものである。
このような易裂れ処理を施しておけば、殻内で成長する苗が光採り窓以外の方向へ伸びた場合でも、その苗が殻に対して内側から圧力を加えると、殻がある程度腐食している状態ではその薄肉部やミシン線でほぼ確実に裂けて口を開けることになる。
【0014】
請求項5に記載した植物活着カプセルは、請求項1から4のいずれかに記載した植物活着カプセルにおいて、殻の外形を正四面体にし、その4つの壁全てに光採り窓を設けたことを特徴とするものである。
本発明における殻の外形としては、方形や円柱形など様々考えられるが、これを請求項5のように正四面体にすると、常に、一つの壁が地面に座してピラミッド形を為す姿勢で置かれるので、姿勢が安定するし、表面積が少ないために太陽熱の吸収が抑えられて内部水分の蒸発を抑制できる。
【0015】
そして、このように殻を正四面体にしておくと、その外表面が全て裾広がりに傾斜するので、請求項3の雨水案内手段としての溝などに雨水が入り易くなるし、また、溝などの雨水案内手段を光採り窓から放射状に延びる形で設けておけば、殻がどのような向きで置かれても少なくとも1つの溝は光採り窓に向かって下降傾斜した形になるため、殻内への雨水の取り込みがより確実に行われることになる。
【0016】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下に、本発明の実施の形態に係る植物活着カプセルを図面に従って説明する。
〔A.殻〕(図1〜図4、図7)
符号3は、植物活着カプセル1の殻を示す。この殻3は、天然パルプを主原料とする厚さ5mm程度の板紙を材料として、正四面体形状の外形を持つ中空な箱形に形成されている。従って、殻3の4つの壁6、7、8及び9は互いに同じ大きさの正三角形をしており、その一つ9が蓋になっていて、他の3つの壁6〜8で底面が開口した三角錐の容器形をした本体5が構成されている。
蓋を為す壁9は、本体5内に保水材や植栽材を収納した後、該本体5の開口部に水密に接着される。この接着には、耐水性の良い接着剤を用いる。
【0017】
殻3は、正四面体の外形を有することにより、ほぼ平坦な地面に置いたときは、常にピラミッド形に立つ。即ち、4つの壁6〜9のいずれか1つが当該地面に座して他の3つの壁はそれら全てに共通の頂点を真上に向けた傾斜姿勢で立つからである。
殻3のサイズは、一辺の長さが80mm〜200mm程度まで数種類用意しておいて、収納する保水材や植栽材の種類とその量に応じて選択させる。
【0018】
4つの壁6〜9には、それぞれ、そのほぼ中央部に円形の光採り窓11が形成されると共に、その外面には3つの雨水案内溝13が形成され、内面には易破れ処理としての3本の切込み線15が形成されている。
切込み線15は、一定間隔で途切れた破線の形の深い溝になっており、光採り窓11近くの位置から当該壁の3つの頂点に向かって各別に放射状に延びている。従って、この切込み線15が設けられた位置においては、壁6〜9は外表面部に薄肉が残るだけになるので、腐食して膨軟化が進行して行くとこの切込み線15において簡単に裂けて口を開ける。
【0019】
雨水案内溝13は、壁6〜9を内側へ向けて多少打ち出すことによって横断面がコ字形をした直線状に形成されており、当該壁の3つの辺の各中間位置近くから光採り窓11に向かって放射状に延び、その先端は光採り窓11の内周面に達している。従って、光採り窓11の内周面には雨水案内溝13に通じる雨水取入れ口11aが形成される。この雨水案内溝13の幅は光採り窓11側の先端へ行くに従って幅狭になっている。
雨水案内溝13はこのような形で設けられているので、殻3を平坦な地面に置いたときは、各壁における3つの雨水案内溝の2つは垂直方向に対して必ず逆ハ字形に開いた姿勢になる(図1参照)。従って、図3に示すように、壁の外表面に落ちた雨水19の多くはこの逆ハ字形に開いた姿勢の2つの雨水案内溝13に捉えられて雨水取入れ口11aへと案内されて殻3の中に導入される。
【0020】
光採り窓11は透明フィルム17によって塞がれている。この透明フィルム17は、例えばポリエチレン製のもので、微小な孔が多数形成されることで通気性を有しており、光採り窓11より多少大きい矩形を為し、その外周部が光採り窓13の周囲に外表面側で接着される。従って、光採り窓11は雨水取入れ口11aを除く全体が透明フィルム17によって塞がれる。
これにより、殻3は雨水取入れ口11aを除く全体が水密にシールされた形で形成される。
【0021】
透明フィルム17には易破れ処理として切れ線17aを設けてある。該切れ線17aは透明フィルム17の中心部で直交する十字形に設けてあり、その交差部以外は破線の形になっている。従って、この透明フィルム17は、植物の苗等が成長するときの圧力を受けただけでも容易に破れるようになっている。
【0022】
〔B.保水材と植栽材の収納〕(図4〜図7)
殻3への保水材の収納形態は、図4に示すようにバラで収納する形態と、図5や図6に示すように袋21や21′に詰めた形で収納する形態と、これらを併用した形態のうち所望の形態を選択する。
袋21は例えば天然パルプ製の不織布など、生分解性を有すると共に水溶性が良く且つ植物の芽の成長力で容易に破られる程度の強度を持つ素材で形成されたものを使用する。
袋21′はメッシュシート製のものである。
【0023】
図4に示す保水材は、人工素材であるゲル状の高分子保水材23と、堆肥や腐葉土や水苔などの天然保水材25を併用しており、これら保水材23、25の他に肥料を適量混ぜてある。
図5に示す保水材にも、人工素材である繊維状の高分子保水材27と、藁を加えた天然保水材25′を併用すると共に、肥料を適量混ぜてある。
【0024】
殻3への植栽材の収納形態は、基本的には全体が殻3内に納まる形態、すなわち、図4や図5に示すように種31(図面では黒く塗りつぶしてある)の形で収納する形態(球根などの根の場合も同様である)と、図6に示すように出芽してある程度成長している苗33の形で収納する形態のいずれかを選択し、例外的に、長く成長した苗や挿し木苗35や幼少木については図7に示すように一部が殻3の外に出た状態で収納する形態を用いる。
植物活着カプセル1は以上のように構成されている。
【0025】
〔C.使用方法と作用〕(図4)
次に、植物活着カプセル1の使用例と作用を説明する。
使用する殻3は、これに収納する保水材の量と植栽材の形などに応じて、最も合理的なサイズのものを選び、その本体5に保水材と植栽材を入れた後、それに真水又は液肥等の肥効成分を混ぜた水を適当な量注ぐ。その水を保水材が十分吸収したところで、蓋である壁9を本体5に接着する。これにより、保水材に含まれた水が殻3内に閉じ込められて蒸散を抑えられる。
【0026】
植栽材が苗33である場合は、これが本体5の閉鎖頂点側を向いて立つ姿勢で収納する。
植栽材が挿し木苗35などである場合は、透明フィルム17を外側から突き通して根部を本体5内に挿入すると共に、本体5に保水材をバラの状態又は袋詰めした状態で入れ、当該根部を保水材に埋めてやれば良い。
このようにして、保水材と植栽材が殻3に収納された植物活着カプセル1を形成する。
【0027】
カプセル1は、目的の植栽土壌の地表に置くか、図4に示すように一部を土に埋めるかする。
収納してある植栽材が種31や根である場合は、カプセル1の向きを特に選ぶ必要は無いので、所望の間隔で土壌表面に播くか、一つの面をほぼ水平にした姿勢で光採り窓11より下の部分を土に埋めればよい。殻3は正四面体の外形を持つので、カプセル1を播くだけの場合は、種まきをする感覚でこれを投げるだけでも多くはピラミッド形に起立する。土壌表面の凹凸によってカプセル1の姿勢が傾いたときは地表を均して置き直せば良い。
収納してある植栽材が苗33や挿し木苗35などである場合は、蓋である壁9を底壁にした姿勢で土壌表面に置くか又は下端部だけ土に埋める。従って、この場合も、殻3はピラミッド形に起立した姿勢にされる。
【0028】
このような姿勢で目的の土壌に置かれた殻3は、4つの光採り窓11のいずれか3つが斜め上方を向くので、その光採り窓11から殻3内に太陽光が差し込む。従って、殻3内の植栽材は、光採り窓11から差し込む太陽光と保水材に含まれている水と肥料等によって成長し、種31は出芽する。そして殻3内で成長する芽や苗の多くは自然に光採り窓11に向かって伸びて行き、やがては図4に示すように透明フィルム17に突き当たってこれを破って殻3の外に出る。
苗33の根や種31から下へ伸びた根は、底壁になっている壁に達し、その壁の光採り窓11を破って地中へ伸びるか、又は、殻3が腐食して膨軟化した後に壁を突き通して地中に伸びる。
尚、降雨があったときは、殻3の外表面に落ちた雨が雨水案内溝13を伝って雨水取入れ口11aから殻3内に入るので、この雨水が保水材への水分補充になる。
【0029】
一方、殻3は生分解性の紙材料で形成されているので、雨水や太陽光に晒されることで徐々に腐食が進行し、やがては崩壊して形を失う。従って、殻3内で成長した芽や苗などは、いずれは自立した形で当該土壌に活着する。その時季の気象条件によっては、苗などが透明フィルム17を突き破る前に殻3が崩壊することもあるが、通常はその時点で根が地中に伸びているので活着には殆ど影響無い。また、殻3内で成長する苗などが光採り窓11以外の方向へ伸びたとしても、殻3がある程度腐食して膨軟化していれば、苗などの成長の圧力が殻3の最も弱い部分すなわち切込み線15によって薄肉にされている部分に働いて、ここをほぼ確実に裂くので、この裂け目を通して苗などが外に伸びる。
【0030】
尚、殻3に吸熱効果を高めたり、収納してある保水材や植栽材の種別管理を容易にしたり、又は土壌に播いた後の視認性を高めたい場合は、殻3に着色したり所要の文字や記号を記載すれば良い。
また、本体5と蓋9はこれらを薄肉ヒンジで連結した形で製作しても良いし、壁6〜9の厚みによってはパルプモールドで形成することも考えられる。
殻3の材料が水を通し易い場合は、殻3の内面に防水コートを施せば良い。
【0031】
〔D.殻の別の形態〕(図8)
図8に別の形態の殻3′を示す。この殻3′は例えば厚さ1〜2mm程度の板紙を材料としたもので、小ぶりの植栽材を大量に播く場合などに適したものである。
この殻3′が前記殻3と相違するところは、材料の厚さと、4つの壁が一体に形成されている点と、組立て用のノリ代41を備えている点だけであって、他は前記した殻3と同じであるので、図面の各部に前記殻3における同様の部位に付した符号と同じ符号を付することで説明は省略する。
【0032】
以上、本発明の実施の形態を説明したが、本発明の具体的構成がこの実施の形態に限定されるものでは無く、本発明の要旨から外れない範囲での設計変更等があっても本発明に含まれる。
例えば、殻に設ける易破れ処理はミシン線であっても良い。
【0033】
【発明の効果】
以上のように、本発明によれば、土壌改良や散水設備を施さなくても、保水性の悪い土壌に対して種苗などの植栽材をほぼ確実に活着させることができ、しかも、生分解性の紙を主たる材料とした殻は、安価に製作できるために費用が極めて安く済むと共に、やがては分解して当該土壌に埋没して行くので、その土壌に悪影響を及ぼす虞れは全く無いし、植物が活着した後に殻を拾い集めたり処分したりする手間も一切掛からない。

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a plant-activated capsule, and more particularly to a novel plant-activated capsule capable of activating a plant without soil improvement even in soil having poor water retention.
[0002]
[Prior art]
For example, when planting on soil with poor water retention such as sandy land, conventionally, soil should be improved by putting in soil with good water retention, installing watering equipment such as sprinklers, or mulching with litter. In addition, seedlings were planted or sown in seasons when rainfall was heavy.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, in the case of large-scale planting such as park construction, tree planting, and reclamation of farms, complete soil improvement and installation of a large number of watering facilities require enormous costs for construction and subsequent maintenance. However, in order to complete the mulching process, there is a problem that the water retention is limited to soil that is not so bad, or the vegetation is limited to plants that prefer to dry. In addition, planting and sowing seedlings in a season with a large amount of rainfall, because the landscaping and planting business concentrates on the time and place, deteriorates the management efficiency of this type of business However, as a result, if the rainfall is small, the planting may die.
[0004]
The present invention has been made in view of the above-described conventional problems, and can maintain the floor soil of planting materials such as seeds and seedlings for a long period of time without performing soil improvement or watering facilities, and can achieve the desired soil. To provide an epoch-making plant-invigorating capsule which can almost certainly invigorate plants, has very low cost, has no adverse effect on soil, and can easily perform sowing work. With the goal.
[0005]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to achieve this object, the plant-activated capsule according to claim 1 is formed in a hollow box shape mainly using a material that degrades in a natural environment such as a biodegradable paper material, and is formed of a transparent film. It is characterized by comprising a substantially closed type shell having a closed light collecting window, and a water retention material and a planting material housed in the shell.
[0006]
Therefore, according to this plant-activated capsule, the water contained in the water retention material continues to be stored for a long time by the closed shell, and sunlight is reliably inserted into the shell from the light-taking window, so that the seeds in the shell and Planting materials such as seedlings and bulbs can almost certainly emerge or grow in the shell. The growing buds and seedlings inevitably extend toward the light-gathering window, breaking through the film blocking this window and extending out of the shell. In addition, the shells eventually lose their shape due to corrosion, so the roots of the planting material that grows in the shells extend through the soil through the light window facing the ground, or at least the shells are corroded and softened. After that, it penetrates and extends into the soil, thus completing the survival of the plant.
[0007]
Thus, according to the present invention, planting materials such as seeds and seedlings can be almost surely activated on soil with poor water retention even without performing soil improvement or watering equipment, and furthermore, paper is a main material. The resulting husks can be manufactured at a low cost, so that the cost is extremely low.In addition, since the husks are eventually decomposed and buried in the soil, there is no danger of adversely affecting the soil. There is no need to pick up or dispose of them.
[0008]
In the present invention, as a water retention material to be put in the shell, an artificial material, for example, a granular rock fired material, a gel-like or fiber-like polymer absorbent material, or the like may be used. Depending on the type of planting material to be put into the plant, a natural water retaining material having high water retention such as compost or humus may be used. Of course, it is possible to use an artificial water retaining material and a natural water retaining material in combination, and it is more desirable to add a fertilizing component.
[0009]
Also, as the material of the shell, if the main material is a material that decomposes in the natural environment, the type is not selected, and the processing form may be selected according to the type of planting material, weather conditions, etc. Basically, the water in the shell can be maintained for about 1 to 3 months, corrosion starts or progresses sufficiently after that time, and it has appropriate strength to maintain its shape until corrosion progresses, etc. It is desirable to select in consideration of.
Specific examples include pulp molds made of relatively thick paperboard, cardboard base paper, waste paper, and the like, extremely thin wood boards, biodegradable polymer materials such as lactic acid-based polymers, and the like. In these cases, it is also effective to apply a waterproof treatment to the inner surface of the shell so that the water of the water retention material does not seep through the shell.
It is desirable to use a transparent film having a large number of fine holes and air permeability.
[0010]
The planting material to be put into the shell is basically a whole that fits inside the shell, such as plants, ground cover plants, vegetable seeds, seedlings, bulbs, and seed potatoes. It is also possible to provide only in a shell.
As for the seed, it may be put in a shell as it is, or may be stored in a shell in a state that does not hinder budding, such as a mesh sheet or a non-woven bag, together with a water retention material. . By doing so, it is possible to easily carry out germination management such that the bags are stored at a low temperature and germinated immediately after planting. Of course, it is also possible to store the seeds and the like in a shell at a low temperature.
[0011]
According to a second aspect of the present invention, there is provided the plant-activated capsule according to the first embodiment, wherein the film covering the light-receiving window is subjected to an easy tearing process such as a broken line.
This makes it possible to almost certainly break the film and extend out of the shell even with a soft shoot.
[0012]
The plant-activated capsule according to claim 3 is the plant-activated capsule according to claim 1 or 2, wherein a rainwater inlet is provided on the inner peripheral surface of the light-taking window, and the outer surface of the shell faces the rainwater inlet. And a rainwater guiding means for guiding rainwater.
In this way, the rainwater that has fallen on the outer surface of the shell can be positively taken into the shell, so that the water retention inside the shell can be increased accordingly, and the rainwater intake also functions as a ventilation hole I do.
As the rainwater guiding means, for example, a groove or a ridge may be formed on the shell wall, and one end thereof may be connected to the rainwater intake.
[0013]
According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, there is provided a plant-activated capsule according to any one of the first to third aspects, wherein the shell is subjected to an easy tearing treatment such as a thin portion or a perforated line. is there.
By applying such an easy tearing process, even if the seedlings growing in the shells extend in directions other than the light window, if the seedlings apply pressure to the shells from inside, the shells will corrode to some extent. In such a state, it is almost certainly torn at the thin portion or the perforation line to open the mouth.
[0014]
The plant-activated capsule according to claim 5 is the plant-activated capsule according to any one of claims 1 to 4, wherein the shell has a regular tetrahedron shape, and light-receiving windows are provided on all four walls. It is a feature.
As the outer shape of the shell in the present invention, various shapes such as a square and a cylinder are conceivable. However, when this is made into a tetrahedron as in claim 5, one wall always sits on the ground and forms a pyramid. Since it is placed, the posture is stable, and since the surface area is small, absorption of solar heat is suppressed and evaporation of internal moisture can be suppressed.
[0015]
If the shell is made into a regular tetrahedron, the outer surface of the shell is inclined so as to spread all over the skirt, so that rainwater easily enters the groove or the like as the rainwater guide means according to claim 3, and the groove or the like. If the rainwater guide means is provided so as to extend radially from the light-gathering window, the at least one groove is inclined downward toward the light-gathering window regardless of the orientation of the shell. Rainwater will be more reliably taken into the interior.
[0016]
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, a plant-activated capsule according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
[A. Shell] (FIGS. 1 to 4, 7)
Reference numeral 3 indicates a shell of the plant-activated capsule 1. The shell 3 is formed in a hollow box shape having a regular tetrahedral outer shape using a paperboard having a thickness of about 5 mm made of natural pulp as a main raw material. Therefore, the four walls 6, 7, 8 and 9 of the shell 3 are equilateral triangles of the same size as one another, one of which is a lid, and the other three walls 6 to 8 have a bottom surface. A main body 5 in the shape of an open triangular pyramid is formed.
The wall 9 serving as a lid is water-tightly bonded to the opening of the main body 5 after storing a water retention material or a planting material in the main body 5. For this bonding, an adhesive having good water resistance is used.
[0017]
The shell 3 has a tetrahedral outer shape, so that it always stands in a pyramid shape when placed on almost flat ground. That is, any one of the four walls 6 to 9 sits on the ground, and the other three walls stand in an inclined posture with the common apex of all of them facing right above.
Several kinds of sizes of the shell 3 are prepared with a side length of about 80 mm to 200 mm, and are selected according to the type and amount of the water retention material or planting material to be stored.
[0018]
Each of the four walls 6 to 9 has a circular light-receiving window 11 formed at a substantially central portion thereof, and three rainwater guide grooves 13 formed on an outer surface thereof. Three score lines 15 are formed.
The cut line 15 is a deep groove in the form of a broken line interrupted at regular intervals, and extends radially from a position near the light extraction window 11 toward three vertices of the wall. Therefore, at the position where the cut line 15 is provided, the walls 6 to 9 only have a thin portion remaining on the outer surface portion. Open your mouth.
[0019]
The rainwater guide groove 13 is formed in a straight line with a U-shaped cross section by slightly projecting the walls 6 to 9 inward, and the light-gathering window 11 is formed near each intermediate position between three sides of the wall. , And its tip reaches the inner peripheral surface of the light extraction window 11. Accordingly, a rainwater inlet 11 a is formed on the inner peripheral surface of the light extraction window 11 and communicates with the rainwater guide groove 13. The width of the rainwater guide groove 13 becomes narrower toward the tip on the side of the light extraction window 11.
Since the rainwater guide groove 13 is provided in such a shape, when the shell 3 is placed on flat ground, two of the three rainwater guide grooves in each wall must be formed in an inverted C shape in the vertical direction. It is in an open position (see FIG. 1). Therefore, as shown in FIG. 3, most of the rainwater 19 that has fallen on the outer surface of the wall is caught by the two rainwater guide grooves 13 having the inverted U-shape and is guided to the rainwater intake port 11a to form a shell. 3 is introduced.
[0020]
The light extraction window 11 is closed by a transparent film 17. The transparent film 17 is made of, for example, polyethylene, has a large number of minute holes, has air permeability, and has a rectangular shape slightly larger than the light collecting window 11, and its outer peripheral portion is formed of a light collecting window. 13 and is adhered on the outer surface side. Therefore, the entire light collecting window 11 except for the rainwater inlet 11 a is closed by the transparent film 17.
As a result, the shell 3 is formed in a form that is entirely water-tightly sealed except for the rainwater intake port 11a.
[0021]
The transparent film 17 is provided with a cutting line 17a as an easy tearing process. The cut line 17a is provided in a cross shape orthogonal to the center of the transparent film 17, and has a dashed shape except for the intersection. Therefore, the transparent film 17 can be easily torn even if it receives only the pressure when the plant seedlings and the like grow.
[0022]
[B. Storage of water retention material and planting material] (Figs. 4 to 7)
The form of storage of the water retention material in the shell 3 is as follows: a form in which the water retention material is stored in a rose as shown in FIG. 4, a form in which the water retention material is packed in bags 21 and 21 'as shown in FIGS. A desired form is selected from the combined forms.
The bag 21 is made of a material such as a nonwoven fabric made of natural pulp, which is biodegradable, has good water solubility, and is strong enough to be easily broken by the growth force of plant buds.
The bag 21 'is made of a mesh sheet.
[0023]
The water retention material shown in FIG. 4 is a combination of a gel-like polymer water retention material 23 which is an artificial material and a natural water retention material 25 such as compost, humus and moss, and in addition to these water retention materials 23 and 25, a fertilizer. Is mixed in an appropriate amount.
The water retention material shown in FIG. 5 also uses a fibrous polymer water retention material 27, which is an artificial material, and a natural water retention material 25 'to which straw is added, and also mixes an appropriate amount of fertilizer.
[0024]
The storage form of the planting material in the shell 3 is basically stored in a form in which the whole is contained in the shell 3, that is, in the form of a seed 31 (blacked out in the drawings) as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5. One of a form (the same applies to roots such as bulbs) and a form in which seedlings 33 are budding and growing to some extent as shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 7, the seedlings, the cuttings 35, and the young trees are stored in a state where a part thereof is out of the shell 3 as shown in FIG.
The plant-activated capsule 1 is configured as described above.
[0025]
[C. Usage method and function] (Fig. 4)
Next, an example of use and operation of the plant-activated capsule 1 will be described.
The shell 3 to be used is selected to have the most reasonable size according to the amount of water-retaining material to be stored therein and the shape of the planting material. Or pour an appropriate amount of water mixed with fertilizers such as liquid manure. When the water retention material has sufficiently absorbed the water, the wall 9 serving as the lid is bonded to the main body 5. Thereby, the water contained in the water retention material is confined in the shell 3 and transpiration can be suppressed.
[0026]
When the planting material is the seedling 33, it is stored in a posture in which the seedling 33 faces the closed vertex side of the main body 5.
When the planting material is a cutting tree seedling 35 or the like, the root portion is inserted into the main body 5 by penetrating the transparent film 17 from the outside, and the water retaining material is put into the main body 5 in a loose state or in a bagged state. Should be buried in the water retention material.
Thus, the plant-activated capsule 1 in which the water retention material and the planting material are stored in the shell 3 is formed.
[0027]
The capsule 1 is placed on the surface of the target planting soil or partially buried in the soil as shown in FIG.
When the stored plant material is the seed 31 or the root, it is not necessary to select the direction of the capsule 1 in particular, so the seeds are sown on the soil surface at a desired interval, or light is collected in a posture in which one surface is almost horizontal. The portion below the window 11 may be buried in the soil. Since the shell 3 has a regular tetrahedral outer shape, if the capsule 1 is merely sown, it will often stand up in a pyramid shape just by throwing it in the sense of sowing. When the posture of the capsule 1 is tilted due to unevenness on the soil surface, the surface of the capsule may be leveled and replaced.
When the stored plant material is the seedling 33, the cutting seedling 35, or the like, the plant is placed on the soil surface with the wall 9 serving as the lid as the bottom wall, or only the lower end is buried in the soil. Therefore, also in this case, the shell 3 is set in an upright posture in a pyramid shape.
[0028]
In the shell 3 placed on the target soil in such a posture, since any three of the four light collecting windows 11 face obliquely upward, sunlight enters the shell 3 from the light collecting window 11. Therefore, the planting material in the shell 3 grows due to the sunlight and the water contained in the water retaining material, fertilizer, and the like inserted through the window 11, and the seed 31 germinates. Most of the buds and seedlings that grow in the shell 3 naturally extend toward the window 11 and eventually strike the transparent film 17 as shown in FIG. .
The roots of the seedlings 33 and the roots extending downward from the seeds 31 reach the bottom wall, and break through the light window 11 of the wall and extend into the ground, or the shell 3 corrodes and expands. After softening, it penetrates the wall and extends underground.
When rain falls, the rain falling on the outer surface of the shell 3 enters the shell 3 from the rainwater inlet 11a through the rainwater guide groove 13, so that the rainwater replenishes the water retaining material with water.
[0029]
On the other hand, since the shell 3 is formed of a biodegradable paper material, corrosion gradually progresses when exposed to rainwater or sunlight, and eventually collapses and loses its shape. Therefore, the shoots, seedlings, and the like that have grown in the shell 3 will eventually become self-sustaining in the soil. Depending on the weather conditions at that time, the shell 3 may collapse before the seedlings and the like pierce the transparent film 17, but the roots are usually extended to the ground at that time, so that there is almost no effect on rooting. Even if the seedlings growing in the shell 3 extend in a direction other than the window 11, if the shell 3 is corroded and swelled to some extent, the growth pressure of the seedling is the weakest of the shell 3. It works on the part, that is, the part thinned by the score line 15, and almost certainly tears it, so that the seedlings and the like extend outside through the tears.
[0030]
If you want to enhance the heat absorption effect of the shell 3, make it easier to manage the type of water retention material or planting material that is stored, or if you want to increase the visibility after sowing in the soil, you need to color the shell 3. May be described.
The main body 5 and the lid 9 may be manufactured by connecting them with a thin hinge, or may be formed by pulp mold depending on the thickness of the walls 6 to 9.
If the material of the shell 3 is easily permeable to water, a waterproof coat may be applied to the inner surface of the shell 3.
[0031]
[D. Another form of shell] (Fig. 8)
FIG. 8 shows another form of the shell 3 '. The shell 3 'is made of, for example, a paperboard having a thickness of about 1 to 2 mm, and is suitable for, for example, sowing a large amount of small planting materials.
The shell 3 'is different from the shell 3 only in the thickness of the material, in that the four walls are formed integrally, and in that the shell 3' is provided with a glue allowance 41 for assembly. Since it is the same as the shell 3 described above, the description will be omitted by giving the same reference numerals to the same parts in the shell 3 for the respective parts in the drawing.
[0032]
Although the embodiment of the present invention has been described above, the specific configuration of the present invention is not limited to this embodiment, and even if there is a design change or the like without departing from the gist of the present invention, the present invention is not limited to this embodiment. Included in the invention.
For example, the easy tear processing provided on the shell may be a sewing wire.
[0033]
【The invention's effect】
As described above, according to the present invention, planting materials such as seeds and seedlings can be almost certainly activated on soil having poor water retention without performing soil improvement or watering equipment, and furthermore, biodegradability The shell made of paper as the main material can be manufactured at low cost, so that the cost is extremely low.In addition, since it will be decomposed and buried in the soil, there is no risk of adversely affecting the soil, There is no need to pick up and dispose of the shells after the plants have settled.
