[0002]
[Prior art]
Flower beds, kitchen gardens, etc. are built by surrounding and stacking with heavy concrete blocks, etc., and the work required a lot of labor, so splitting assembly planters have been proposed, Conveying is convenient and the layout can be freely adjusted according to the size and shape of the site (see, for example, Patent Document 1).
[0003]
However, in such an assembly type, there is a problem that the sprinkled water permeates into the bottom surface, so that water leaks from the seam and the surroundings are submerged.
[0004]
Moreover, the soil in the planter may flow out at the same time as the water is drained from the gap between the bottom plates. However, if the efficiency of drainage is poor, anaerobic bacteria may grow on the soil and decay, and the planted plant may die.

Furthermore, the corners 15a of each bottom plate 1 of each of the accessory moldings are cut off, and the accessory moldings are connected by the corners 15a of the bottom plates 1 connected to each other and facing the bowl shape. A hole 15 can be created, and the upper surface of the mounting hole 15 can be appropriately covered with a mesh lid, while a drain cap 5 (see FIG. 8), which is a drainage and a connecting member, is provided from the back side of the planter body. Can be fitted.
[0025]
And since the bottom plate of each member has the drainage surface given the downward gradient to the open edge 14 direction, as shown in FIG.9 and FIG.10, a water | moisture content flows into the arrow direction shown in a figure, and is reliable. It is possible to drain the water.
[0026]
Thus, the water in the planter can be concentrated drainage through the drain port 51 of the drain cap 5, and these drain ports 51 can be connected to the drain pipe to conduct the water intensively outside (see FIG. 11). .
[0027]
Further, by projecting the spacer legs 17 on the back surface of the bottom plate 1, the bottom plate 1 can be prevented from being directly grounded. For example, the installation surface is a ground surface that may become high temperature such as asphalt or concrete. However, it is possible to reduce the heat effect and prevent root wilt (see FIG. 11).
[0028]
“Exemplary Modification 1”
Embodiment 1 of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. In this modification, the cutout shape of the side edge facing surface 21 of the retaining wall plate 2 is changed, and the facing angle between the retaining wall plates is appropriately changed and combined, so that the planter has a complex shape layout according to the situation. Allows you to configure. At this time, the design of the joint member 3 may be changed in accordance with the shape of the produced engaging portion 22.
[0029]
“Execution Variation 2”
Embodiment 2 of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. In this modification, by forming the insertion hole 23 in the upper part of the retaining wall plate 2, the support bar 6 can be inserted into the insertion hole 23 and the covering member 7 can be hung. Easy to configure. It is also possible to install a column or shelf that supports the stems and vines of the plant.
[0030]
"Execution modification 3"
Embodiment 3 of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. In this modification, the amount of soil can be adjusted according to the height of planting by adding the supplementary weir plate 24 to the upper part of the retaining wall plate 2 so that it can be installed.
[0031]
“Exemplary Modification 4”
Embodiment 4 of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. In the present modification, the clip part 33 is formed on the upper part of the joint member 3 so that the flooded pipe 8 can be installed on the clip part 33. Thus, water can be conveniently flooded through the flooded pipe 8, and even in such a case, the water can be drained reliably and promptly.
[0032]
The present invention is generally configured as described above. However, the present invention is not limited to the illustrated embodiment, and various modifications can be made within the description of “Claims”. By forming the slit 16 on the surface of the bottom plate 1 of each accessory molded article, the surface tension can be increased and the drainage action can be promoted (see FIG. 16).
[0033]
Although not shown, the drainage grooves 14a may be formed on the wall side of each retaining wall plate 2. For example, the drainage grooves 14a are effective when the bottom plate area is large, and can be configured to cover the cover as appropriate. .
[0034]
Furthermore, the shape of the engaging piece 22a of the retaining wall plate 2 can be changed as shown in FIG. 17, and the same effect can be obtained even if the shapes of the joint member 3 and the engaging portion 22 are changed.
