Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a slug removing horticultural table that can place many flower pots or planters at a time without using chemicals at all and can be maintained at a low cost safely for a long term in which, conventionally, the chemicals are generally used in the repellent of a slug with a horticultural implement, however, when used outside, the reduction of chemical effects and risk of side-effects of chemicals are present due to an influence of rain water etc.SOLUTION: A slug removing horticultural table is characterized by: using a pair of electric conductors and repelling slugs by electric shock; forming a double structure fitting an upper stepped part to a lower stepped part; providing a power supply unit in the upper stepped part, and preventing the entry of the slugs by the electric shock when crossing the pair of electric conductors of table leg parts of the lower stepped part; making all intervals between the upper and lower stepped parts in approximately three-fourths or more of a slug length except a fitting part; preventing droplets from adhering to the electric conductors due to weather by using two upper and lower droplet prevention covers; and placing many horticultural implements on the table, which can also be enlarged.

Description

この発明は、園芸用具などにナメクジが侵入するのを阻止するための園芸用テーブルに関するものである。 The present invention relates to a gardening table for preventing slugs from entering a gardening tool or the like.

従来、植木鉢や各種プランターなどで、ナメクジの侵入による被害から野菜や園芸植物を防止するためには、各種市販の薬剤を使用する方法が一般的であった。
しかし、屋外で薬剤を用いてするナメクジ忌避対策は、風雨による薬効低下に加えて、犬猫、幼児などが、不測的な薬害発生に巻き込まれる危険性などの諸問題が存在している。
よって、これらの問題や危険性が生じず、一度に多くの植木鉢やプランター等を載せて使用することが出来るようなナメクジ侵入防止用具を必要としたが、屋外の厳しい環境下での使用は、ナメクジの夜行性等々特異な習性もあって、容易には実現が出来なかった。植木鉢の載置台の周囲に、水や駆除液を設ける収納凹部を設けて、ナメクジやミミズの侵入を防ぐのも知られている（特許文献１参照）。
又、忌避剤を浸透させた忌避マットでナメクジを駆除するのも知られている（特許文献２参照）。更に、植木鉢の表面や周囲などに一対の電極を取り付け、電撃を与えて忌避するのも知られている（特許文献３参照）。Conventionally, in order to prevent vegetables and horticultural plants from being damaged by slugs invading with flower pots and various planters, methods using various commercially available drugs have been common.
However, slug avoidance measures using drugs outdoors have problems such as the risk of dogs and cats, infants, etc. being involved in unexpected drug damage in addition to the decrease in medicinal effects due to wind and rain.
Therefore, although these problems and dangers do not occur, we needed a slug entry prevention tool that can be used with many flower pots and planters at once, but use in harsh outdoor environments, Due to the unique behaviors of slugs such as nocturnal nature, it could not be realized easily. It is also known that a storage recess for providing water or a pesticide is provided around the flowerpot mounting table to prevent the entry of slugs and earthworms (see Patent Document 1).
It is also known to control slugs with a repellent mat infiltrated with a repellent (see Patent Document 2). Furthermore, it is also known that a pair of electrodes is attached to the surface or the periphery of a flower pot, and an electric shock is applied to avoid it (see Patent Document 3).

従来、園芸用のナメクジ忌避や駆除には、市販の薬剤を使用するのが一般的であるが、屋外では雨水による薬剤効果の減少や、薬剤費用の問題、不測的な薬害の危険性などが存在している。これらの問題や危険性を回避するためにも、薬剤を全く使用せず、長期間でも低廉な維持費用で、昼夜及び季節などに関係なく、一度に多くの園芸用具を載せられる、ナメクジ除け園芸用のテーブルが必要である。
参照文献１、２に示される先行技術は、雨水対策がなく、植木鉢などを個別に使用する構造になっているが、一般的に園芸をする場合は、多数の植木鉢やプランター等を用いて育成している為に、多くの植木鉢などを載せられない先行技術の用具では、購入費用も増え、維持管理も煩雑になってとても厄介である。
又、参照文献３に示される先行技術は、屋外での使用に対して、風雨や飛沫の対策が十分にないので、電源関係や重要な電極部分に不具合が生じ易い。Traditionally, commercially available drugs are commonly used for horticultural slug avoidance and extermination, but outdoors, there are reduced drug effects due to rainwater, problems with drug costs, risk of unforeseen phytotoxicity, etc. Existing. In order to avoid these problems and dangers, slug-free horticulture that can be loaded with many gardening tools at a time regardless of day, night, season, etc., without using any drugs, and at low maintenance costs even for a long time. A table is required.
The prior art shown in Reference Documents 1 and 2 has no rainwater countermeasures and has a structure that uses flower pots individually. However, in general gardening, it is nurtured using many flower pots and planters. For this reason, it is very troublesome to use a prior art tool that cannot mount many flower pots because the purchase cost is increased and the maintenance is complicated.
In addition, the prior art shown in Reference Document 3 does not have sufficient measures against wind and rain and splashes for outdoor use, so that there are problems with power supply and important electrode portions.

以下、本発明の実施形態を説明する。
大きくは、天板（１）を主要素とする上段部（１３）と、下から上段部（１３）に嵌まり合う形で形成される下段部（１４）とから成るナメクジ除け園芸用テーブルであり、この構造物全体を受け台（１６）の上に載せ置いて使用するものである。
以下、天板（１）は、仮に横長の長方形状で、長手辺の一方の手前側を正面として向き合うと仮定する。
受け台（１６）に直接接地しているのは下段部（１４）の最下部を成す接地板（４）であり、接地板（４）は細長形状で、その長手辺が天板（１）の短手辺に平行・即ち手前側正面から先向こう側背面方向に、且つ天板（１）の左右端の短手辺から其々少し内側寄りに当たる位置にて、相互平行に左右に間隔距離をおいて並列状態にある。
この接地板（４）の上に・接地板（４）を足の如くに接合しているところの下段部（１４）の諸要素が構成される。
間隔を置いて左右に平行に並列している接地板（４）は、上面において、それぞれの長手両端・即ち手前側・向こう側の２箇所の短手辺縁に沿って・接地板（４）の約縦半分の位置まで橋渡した固定板（１７）によって、相互に結合される。この両固定板（１７）の間のスペースにおいて、中央域の大半を塞ぎつつ・それぞれの固定板（１７）から少し間隔を空けて・固定板（１７）と平行に・固定板（１７）と同等の厚み・長さで・台脚取付け板（１０）を設置する。
この台脚取付け板（１０）の中央域において、縦中心線を挟む一定の距離間隔をおいて、固定板（１７）方向に直交し・接地板（４）に平行する形で左右に並列するところの台脚部（９）を設置する。台脚部（９）は分厚い正角材を用いた場合において、上方へは約３−４段重ね程の高さに形設し、左右それぞれの最上段の中央部上面に、正角材の厚みの約３分の２程の深さで凹みを掘設して下段部嵌合凹部（１５）を形設する。
更に台脚部（９）の高さの中間域を一周する形で、プラス側・マイナス側一対の導電体（１２）を、約１ｍｍ位の絶縁距離をおいて上下に設置して、上部導電体（１２ａ）・下部導電体（１２ｂ）を設ける。その際、上部導電体（１２ａ）の幅は凡そナメクジの体長の半分以上・下部導電体（１２ｂ）の幅は上部導電体（１２ａ）の約半分位にするのが好ましい。このように設置された固定板（１７）及び台脚取付け板（１０）の外周に沿って周回し、垂直上方に・台脚部（９）の上端よりも低く、下段部飛沫防止カバー（３）を立設する。
このような下段部（１４）の構造に、上から嵌め込む形で結合するのが上段部（１３）である。上段部（１３）の主要素を成す天板（１）の裏面において、中央域に・角材を用いてＨ形の上段部嵌合凸部（７）を設けるが、このＨ形は下段部（１４）の台脚部（９）を左右から外側を挟むようにピッタリ添いつつ、下段部嵌合凹部（１５）にピッタリ対応して嵌まり合う形で形成される。更に、このＨ形の外側線の４つの線端を結ぶ四角形に沿って、垂直下方に・下段部（１４）の台脚部（９）に設置されている下部導電体（１２ｂ）が隠れる辺りまでの深さで・立設される上段部飛沫防止カバー（２）を設ける。
このように形成された上段部（１３）を下段部（１４）に重ね嵌めた時、上段部飛沫防止カバー（２）とその外側の下段部飛沫防止カバー（３）との間、上段部飛沫防止カバー（２）先端と台脚取付け板（１０）との間等、上段部（１３）と下段部（１４）とは、嵌合部を除き・どの場所においても・相互にナメクジ体長の約４分の３以上の間隔があるように形成され、上段部飛沫防止カバー（２）と下段部飛沫防止カバー（３）とは、水平方向から見て、一定の重合幅で相互に重なる。
上段部（１３）の天板（１）裏面の外縁際に設置してある電源ＢＯＸ（６）から引いた電源ケーブル（５）は、右側の台脚部（９）で受け、同極間はケーブルトレイ（１１）を利用し、渡り配線で接続され、上段電源ケーブル（５ａ）と下段電源ケーブル（５ｂ）の上下間はコネクター（８）等で接続される。
本発明は以上のような構成であり、以下これを実際に使用する時の具体的な形態を説明する。
天板（１）の裏面にある、電源ＢＯＸ（６）の電源部飛沫防止カバーのネジを緩めて上側にスライドして外し、電池ＢＯＸに市販の９Ｖの乾電池を入れ、付帯の電池用のコネクターをセットしたら、電源部飛沫防止カバーを元のように被せ、緩めたネジを締め戻す。次に、下段部（１４）に電源を供給している上段電源ケーブル（５ａ）と下段電源ケーブル（５ｂ）とが、コネクタ−（８）などで、しっかり連結されていることを確認する。
本発明の天板（１）には、合計で約６０Ｋｇ位までの植木鉢やプランターなどを載せられ、水やりも天板（１）に載せた状態で出来る。通常に於いてナメクジが、本発明の天板（１）に侵入する場合の経路として、外部から下段部（１４）の接地板（４）に上り、下段部飛沫防止カバー（３）を乗越えるか、又は、下段部飛沫防止カバー（３）の内側より入り込み、固定板（１７）と台脚取付け板（１０）との隙間（１８）を経由するコース、或は、直接に下段部飛沫防止カバー（３）を乗越えて、そのカバーや固定板（１７）、接地板（４）などを伝って台脚取付け板（１０）に入り込むコースなど多数ある。しかし、その何れのコースでも、ナメクジに感電ショックを与える為に、両台脚部（９）の、電圧が掛っている一対の導電体（１２）の箇所を突破しなければ、上段部（１３）の天板（１）に至ることは出来ない。
本発明の、ナメクジ除けの機能性と関係ない特殊な侵入の場合として、人意的な不注意によるもので、植木鉢やプランターなど外観上で見えにくい容器の箇所や、園芸植物にナメクジが付着しているのを、知らずに持ち込むことで、結果としてナメクジを侵入させてしまう場合があるので、外部から持ち込む場合には、必ず、園芸用の容器や植物類などの全体を、入念に検察する必要がある。
それから、植木鉢やプランターの植物の葉などが、天板（１）以外の地面に接触している時や、不特定物が天板（１）に接触しているか、又は、上段部（１３）の各部位と外部との間隔がナメクジ体長の約４分の３未満の場合には、ナメクジがその間隔を越えて、天板（１）に上ってくる場合があるので、注意が必要である。
よって、本発明の設置場所は、直に土砂の上に置かずに、設置場所の真下や周囲には雑草が生えないように整備した場所で、本発明の接地板（４）の下には、地面よりも多少高めの、コンクリート製などの腐食しない受け台（１６）を置き、設置場所の周囲の雑草や近くの不特定物に対して、絶えず注意をする必要がある。
使用する電源の乾電池は市販の９Ｖであるが、通電を開始すると、ナメクジの侵入の有無に関係なく、自然リーク電流の為に、次第に電圧が低下するので、約７．５Ｖ以下になったら、９Ｖある乾電池に取り替える必要がある。
一対の導電体（１２）の部分に、感電したナメクジが取り付いた状態や、不用意に水で濡らした状態を放置してある場合には、電流が流れ続けて電池の寿命が短くなるので、水やりの時には十分に注意し、又、台風などの暴風雨の後は、設置状態や内部の様子などを良く見て、不要な障害物などを取り除き、状態によって適切に対処する必要がある。
本発明を使用しない時は、電池を外し、使い終わりには内部を含めた全体を清掃し、特に一対の導電体（１２）部分の汚れを良く落とすことで、電気ショック効果の低下を防止することが出来る。
電源ケーブル（５）の上段電源ケーブル（５ａ）と下段電源ケーブル（５ｂ）に接続してあるコネクター（８）を脱着する場合には、下段部（１４）の隙間（１８）から直接に手を入れて作業をすることが出来る。
天板（１）には、本発明の２倍位大きなテーブルを、重ねて取り付けて使用することが出来るが、制限重量（約６０Ｋｇ位）は超えないように、注意をする必要がある。
更に、本発明を２セット用い、少し並列に離して設置し、間に適当な補強材を使って跨ぐように配置すれば、より大きなテーブルを載せられ、本発明の５−６倍も面積の拡大が出来、よって、園芸活動の拡張に際して柔軟に対応が出来る。Embodiments of the present invention will be described below.
In general, the table for slug-removing gardening is composed of an upper step (13) whose main element is the top plate (1) and a lower step (14) formed so as to be fitted to the upper step (13) from the bottom. Yes, the entire structure is placed on a cradle (16) for use.
Hereinafter, it is assumed that the top plate (1) has a horizontally long rectangular shape and faces one front side of the long side as a front surface.
The grounding plate (4) forming the lowermost part of the lower step (14) is directly grounded to the cradle (16). The grounding plate (4) has an elongated shape, and its long side is the top plate (1). Parallel to the short side of the front side, that is, from the front side of the front side to the back side of the front side, and at a position slightly inward from the short side of the left and right ends of the top plate (1), the distance between the left and right in parallel In parallel.
On the ground plate (4), the elements of the lower step (14) are constructed where the ground plate (4) is joined like a foot.
The grounding plates (4) arranged in parallel to each other at right and left sides are arranged on the upper surface along the two short side edges of each longitudinal end, that is, the near side and the far side, and the grounding plate (4). They are connected to each other by a fixing plate (17) bridged to a position of about half of the vertical length. In the space between the two fixing plates (17), the majority of the central area is blocked. A little distance from each fixing plate (17). Parallel to the fixing plate (17). The fixing plate (17). Install the pedestal mounting plate (10) with the same thickness and length.
In the center region of this pedestal mounting plate (10), it is arranged in parallel to the left and right so as to be perpendicular to the direction of the fixed plate (17) and parallel to the ground plate (4) with a certain distance between the vertical center lines. However, the pedestal (9) is installed. When a thick square member is used for the pedestal portion (9), the upper part is formed to have a height of about 3-4 stacks upward, and the thickness of the square member is formed on the upper surface of the center of each upper left and right stage. A dent is dug to a depth of about two-thirds to form a lower step fitting recess (15).
Furthermore, a pair of conductors (12) on the plus side and minus side are installed up and down with an insulation distance of about 1 mm so as to make a round in the middle area of the height of the pedestal (9). A body (12a) and a lower conductor (12b) are provided. At this time, it is preferable that the width of the upper conductor (12a) is about half or more of the slug body length and the width of the lower conductor (12b) is about half that of the upper conductor (12a). It circulates along the outer periphery of the fixed plate (17) and the pedestal mounting plate (10) installed in this way, vertically upward and lower than the upper end of the pedestal portion (9), and the lower part splash prevention cover (3 ).
The upper part (13) is coupled to the structure of the lower part (14) in such a manner as to be fitted from above. On the back surface of the top plate (1) constituting the main element of the upper step (13), an H-shaped upper step fitting convex portion (7) is provided in the central region using square wood. 14) The base leg portion (9) is fitted so as to sandwich the outer side from the left and right sides, and is fitted in the lower step portion fitting recess (15) so as to fit perfectly. Further, along the quadrilateral connecting the four line ends of the H-shaped outer line, the lower conductor (12b) installed on the pedestal part (9) of the lower step part (14) vertically below is hidden. Provide the upper part splash prevention cover (2) standing up to the depth.
When the upper step portion (13) formed in this manner is overlapped with the lower step portion (14), the upper step portion splashes between the upper step portion splash prevention cover (2) and the outer lower portion splash prevention cover (3). The upper step (13) and the lower step (14), such as between the tip of the prevention cover (2) and the pedestal mounting plate (10), except for the fitting portion, are located at any place. The upper part splash prevention cover (2) and the lower part splash prevention cover (3) are overlapped with each other with a constant polymerization width as viewed from the horizontal direction.
The power cable (5) drawn from the power supply box (6) installed near the outer edge of the top plate (1) back surface of the upper stage (13) is received by the right pedestal (9), and between the same poles The cable tray (11) is used to connect by crossover wiring, and the upper and lower power cables (5a) and the lower power cable (5b) are connected by a connector (8) or the like.

After setting, cover the power supply splash cover as before and tighten the loosened screw back. Next, it is confirmed that the upper power cable (5a) and the lower power cable (5b) supplying power to the lower part (14) are firmly connected by the connector (8) or the like.
On the top plate (1) of the present invention, flower pots, planters and the like up to about 60 kg in total can be placed, and watering can be performed with the top plate (1) placed. Normally, slugs ascend to the ground plate (4) of the lower step (14) from the outside as a route when the slug enters the top plate (1) of the present invention and get over the lower splash prevention cover (3). Or, it enters from the inner side of the lower part splash prevention cover (3) and goes through the gap (18) between the fixed plate (17) and the base mounting plate (10), or directly lower part splash prevention. There are many courses that go over the cover (3) and enter the pedestal mounting plate (10) through the cover, the fixing plate (17), the ground plate (4), and the like. However, in any of the courses, in order to give an electric shock to the slug, if the part of the pair of conductors (12) to which the voltage is applied on both pedestals (9) does not break through, the upper stage (13 ) To the top plate (1).
As a special invasion of the present invention that is not related to the functionality of excluding slugs, it is due to human carelessness. If you bring it in without knowing it, you may end up with a slug. As a result, when you bring it in from the outside, it is necessary to carefully inspect the entire horticultural containers and plants. is there.
Then, when a plant pot or a planter leaf is in contact with the ground other than the top plate (1), an unspecified object is in contact with the top plate (1), or the upper stage (13). If the distance between each part and the outside is less than about three-quarters of the slug body length, the slug may exceed that distance and come up to the top plate (1). is there.
Therefore, the installation location of the present invention is a place where the weeds are not placed directly on the earth and so that weeds do not grow directly under or around the installation location, and under the ground plate (4) of the present invention. It is necessary to place a pedestal (16) made of concrete or the like that is slightly higher than the ground and keep careful attention to the weeds and nearby unspecified things around the installation site.
The battery of the power source to be used is a commercially available 9V, but when energization is started, the voltage gradually decreases due to natural leakage current regardless of the presence or absence of slugs, so if it becomes about 7.5V or less, It is necessary to replace the battery with 9V.
If you leave a shocked slug attached to the pair of conductors (12) or inadvertently wetted with water, the current will continue to flow and the battery life will be shortened. Careful attention should be paid when watering, and after a storm such as a typhoon, it is necessary to take a good look at the installation and internal conditions, remove unnecessary obstacles, and take appropriate measures depending on the condition.
When the present invention is not used, the battery is removed, the whole including the inside is cleaned at the end of use, and particularly the pair of conductors (12) are well cleaned to prevent a reduction in the electric shock effect. I can do it.
When detaching the connector (8) connected to the upper power cable (5a) and the lower power cable (5b) of the power cable (5), put your hands directly through the gap (18) in the lower part (14). I can put it in and work.
The table (1) can be used with a table twice as large as that of the present invention, but care must be taken so that the limit weight (about 60 kg) is not exceeded.
Furthermore, if two sets of the present invention are used, they are installed a little apart in parallel, and placed so as to straddle with an appropriate reinforcing material between them, a larger table can be placed, which is 5-6 times the area of the present invention. It can be expanded, so it can flexibly respond to the expansion of horticultural activities.

Claims

Largely, it is a slug-free gardening table that consists of an upper step with the top plate as the main element and a lower step formed in a form that fits from the bottom to the upper step. Hereafter, it is assumed that the top plate is a horizontally long rectangular shape and faces the front side of one side of the long side, but it is directly grounded to the cradle. Is the bottom plate of the lower part, the ground plate is elongated, and its long side is parallel to the short side of the top plate, that is, from the front side to the far side and the back side, and the top plate At a position slightly inward from the short sides of the left and right ends, they are in a parallel state with a distance between them parallel to each other, and the grounding plate is joined on the grounding plate like a foot. However, the elements of the lower stage are configured, but parallel to the left and right with a gap. The parallel grounding plates are connected to each other by a fixed plate that is bridged to the position of about half the vertical length of the grounding plate along the two short side edges on the upper surface, that is, the front side and the far side on the upper surface. In the space between the two fixed plates, the majority of the central area is blocked. ・ Slightly spaced from each fixed plate. ・ Parallel with the fixed plate. ・ Same thickness and length as the fixed plate. In the center area of this pedestal mounting plate, a stand that is parallel to the left and right in a direction that is perpendicular to the fixed plate direction and parallel to the ground plate, with a certain distance between the vertical center lines When the leg is installed and the thick leg is used for the pedestal, the upper part is formed to have a height of about 3-4 stacks, and the upper part is placed on the upper surface of the central part of each upper left and right. Digging a dent at a depth of about two-thirds of the thickness of the lower step fitting recess In addition, a pair of conductors on the plus side and minus side are installed up and down with an insulation distance of about 1 mm in a form that goes around the middle area of the height of the base leg part, A lower conductor is provided. At that time, the width of the upper conductor should be about half or more of the slug body length. The width of the lower conductor should preferably be about half that of the upper conductor. It circulates along the outer periphery of the plate and the pedestal mounting plate, and the lower part splash prevention cover is erected vertically above and below the upper end of the pedestal part. It is the upper stage part that is joined by fitting from the top, and on the back surface of the top plate that constitutes the main element of the upper stage part, an H-shaped upper part fitting convex part is provided in the central region using square material. In the H type, the lower pedestal is fitted with the right and left outer sides tightly, and the lower pedestal fitting recess is The lower conductor is formed in a shape that fits in correspondence with each other, and is further installed vertically below and on the lower pedestal along the quadrilateral connecting the four line ends of the H-shaped outer line. The upper part splash prevention cover is installed up to a depth up to the area where it is hidden, but when the upper part formed in this way is overlaid on the lower part, the upper part splash prevention cover and the lower step part outside it Between the splash prevention cover, between the tip of the upper splash prevention cover and the base mounting plate, etc., the upper and lower stages, excluding the fitting part, at any location, and about 4 minutes each slug body length The upper part splash prevention cover and the lower part splash prevention cover are overlapped with each other with a certain overlap width when viewed from the horizontal direction, and the outer edge of the top plate back surface of the upper part is formed.
