Description

The present invention relates to a planting container for greening laid on a rooftop (land roof) of a building, a veranda, or the like for the purpose of planting and greening on a rooftop (land roof) of a building or a veranda of a general house.

This kind of planting plantan or tray on the market is formed into a shallow rectangular box with the top open, and is placed adjacent to the installation site to be greened, such as the rooftop (land roof) or veranda of the building, vertically or horizontally. Then laid. However, after planting planting plants and trays for tree planting, you may check the planted flowers and plants, check the vegetation state, and the installation condition of the planting tray. You may accidentally step into the planted area of the tray. It is desirable to be able to walk through the planted plantans and trays in the green area, but because the planting plantans and trays themselves are not strong enough, they accidentally stepped into the field. Even if it is a structure, a structure that can avoid catastrophic depression of the planting part and damage to the container body itself is desirable, and it has the convenience and strength of the container function and the ease of replacement of the planting part (including the container). A planting container is desirable.

However, in many conventional planting trays for planting trees, it is natural that plants such as flowers are planted on the entire planting part of the planting trays laid, so there is no room for stepping on the ground. In some cases, the current situation is that, when transplanting a plant, the planting part is accidentally stepped on to damage the flower or the planting part of the soil is depressed. Also, because the strength and structure of the parts that are adjacently arranged and connected are weak, it is predicted that the connection part will be detached or damaged by vibrations such as strong winds or earthquakes. There was a connector body having an inverted “U” -shaped cross section, which was formed so as to be engaged with an edge of an adjacent planting tray. As an example, a method for attaching such a connector is disclosed in Patent Document 1.

In addition, a container raising member is known that can be stacked and transported when a plurality of planting trays are moved to an installation site where the planting tray itself that has been grown should be greened. As an example, it is disclosed in Patent Document 2.
In addition, even if it does not have a function for fixing to the rooftop, FIG. 6 http://www8.ipdl.ncipi.go.jp/Tokujitu/tjitemdrw.ipdl?N0000=235&N0500=4E_N/;>9?= ;? // & N0001 = 155 & N0552 = 9 & N0553 = 000021 As shown in the figure, equipped with a vibration control pad that can be joined to the lifting member that is also used as a connector. It is desirable to add a function capable of attenuating external stress applied to the part and the container and avoiding damage to the container.
The above-mentioned examples of the container for planting and the raising member combined with the coupler can be formed inexpensively by a mass production method from the viewpoint of productivity, workability, cost, etc. In general, it is formed of a synthetic resin that is excellent in recycling and reworking.
