Description

  The present invention relates to a plant protection material and a plant protection system.

  Conventionally, a plant protective material for protecting plants has been proposed (see, for example, Patent Document 1). Such a plant protection material is configured to include projections arranged at grid-like intersections in plan view and grid-like frame portions that connect the projections to each other. Then, plants such as lawn are grown in the space surrounded by the frame portion, and the treading pressure from a person or a vehicle is received by the projecting portion, thereby preventing the treading pressure from being directly transmitted to the plant.

Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 7-227154

  Here, when a person or a vehicle steps on the plant protection material, if the leaf or stem of the plant is caught between the frame and the person's shoes or the tire of the vehicle, the plant is shredded. Therefore, there is a possibility of inhibiting the growth of the plant. In particular, if the growth point or the stem of the plant is cut off in this way, the plant may die or prevent the formation of a new plant body by vegetative propagation, which is not preferable. Therefore, in order to prevent the plant from being shredded in this way, it is structured so that the upper end of the frame part is cut out, so that the plant fits in the cutout part when a person or a vehicle steps on it. It is possible to prevent the plant from being shredded. Here, a stem such as turf may grow and extend toward a position below the notch in the frame (that is, a position where the notch is not formed). After contacting, it extends upward so as to travel along the frame. However, when the leaves of the plant etc. are growing healthy, the stems that extend upwards do not fit in the notch part and the function expected of the notch is not fulfilled. Plant growth points and stems that must be protected may be worn out by people or cars. Therefore, there has been a demand for a plant protection material that can reduce the possibility that a plant will be worn by a person or a vehicle when the notch is provided at the upper end of the frame portion as described above.

(Constitution)
FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a parking lot where a plant protection system 1 according to the present embodiment is installed, and FIG. 2 is an enlarged cross-sectional view of a main part of FIG. In FIG. 1, a part of the plant 9 is cut out. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the plant protection system 1 in the present embodiment is formed over the road floor 2 of the parking lot, and the vehicle is placed on the plant protection system 1. 3 can be parked. In addition, although the structure of the roadbed 2 is arbitrary and it demonstrates as what is a flat concrete floor in this Embodiment, it may have a gradient and a level | step difference, and other materials (asphalt etc.) You may form by. Here, in the following description, the XX ′ direction in FIGS. 1 and 2 is referred to as “width direction” or “lateral direction”, and particularly the X direction is “right direction” and the X ′ direction is “ This is referred to as “left direction”. Further, the YY ′ direction is referred to as “depth direction” or “vertical direction”, in particular, the Y direction is referred to as “front direction”, and the Y ′ direction is referred to as “rear direction”. Further, the ZZ ′ direction is referred to as “height direction” or “thickness direction”, in particular, the Z direction is referred to as “upward direction”, and the Z ′ direction is referred to as “downward direction”.

  Here, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the plant protection system 1 includes a planting unit 4, a plant protection material 5, a water collecting plate 6, a tire stopper 7, and an upper surface material 8.

(Configuration-Planting Department)
The planting part 4 is a planting base for growing the plant 9, and is an area on the side facing the gap part 50 (that is, an end face material) via the lower surface material 20 (described later) of the plant protection material 5. It is disposed only in the lower region) and is in contact with the lower surface material 20. Specifically, the planting part 4 is soil placed so as to have an equal thickness at a position above the water collecting plate 6 and below the plant protection material 5. Here, as this planting portion 4, any plant 9 can be used as long as the plant 9 can grow, but in this embodiment, the soil is made of porous volcanic gravel as a main aggregate. It is assumed that In addition, this guest soil material does not contain fine particles such as silt and clay, is composed of porous gravel sand, and is excellent in water retention and drainage.

  Here, the plant 9 is a plant to be protected by the plant protection material 5 and the plant protection system 1 according to the present embodiment. Specifically, the plant 9 grows roots in the planting part 4, a stem and a part of the leaf are accommodated in a later-described gap part 50 of the plant protection material 5, and a leaf end part is the gap part 50. It is planted so as to protrude upward. Further, a part of the stems and leaves of the plant 9 is planted so as to reach another adjacent gap 50 through a lower notch 13 described later. In addition, although the kind of plant 9 is arbitrary and various plants, such as a moss plant, a fern plant, and a seed plant, can be applied, in this Embodiment, it faces not only the vertical direction but horizontal direction like FIG. It is assumed that the plant is a growing plant (for example, turf).

(Configuration-plant protection material)
The plant protection material 5 is a plant protection means for protecting the plant 9. The plant protection material 5 is a plate-like body having a length and width of about 50 cm and a thickness of about 3 cm. As shown in FIG. 1, a plurality of the plant protection materials 5 are juxtaposed in the width direction and the depth direction above the planting part 4 without gaps. Yes. In addition, each plant protection material 5 is mutually connected by the connection part 40 (it mentions later) formed in the edge part of a horizontal direction. Moreover, when the plant protection material 5 is arranged in the planting part 4, the surface (downward surface) on the side in contact with the planting part 4 is referred to as “back surface”, and the opposite surface (upward surface) is referred to as “surface”. Will be described.

  Here, FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing the plant protection material 5 seen from the front surface side, FIG. 4 is a perspective view showing the plant protection material 5 seen from the back surface side, and FIG. 5 is a plan view of the plant protection material 5. FIG. 6 is a bottom view of the plant protection material 5. As shown in FIGS. 3 to 6, the plant protection material 5 includes a partition wall 10, a lower surface material 20, an outer frame material 30, and a connecting portion 40.

(Configuration-Plant protection material-Bulkhead)
The partition wall 10 includes a gap 50 (described later) that can accommodate at least a part of the plant 9 therein, a first cavity (described later), and a second cavity arranged in parallel with the first cavity. Isolating means for isolating from each other (described later). As shown in FIGS. 3 and 5, the partition wall 10 is formed in the space covered with the outer frame member 30 in the vertical and horizontal directions. Here, FIG. 7 is an enlarged view of part A of FIG. 3, and FIG. 8 is a perspective view showing a unit block 11 (described later). As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the partition wall 10 is schematically composed of a first partition wall (hereinafter referred to as a partition wall 10 a) formed in a hexagonal shape in plan view with upper and lower end faces as opening surfaces, A unit block 11 having a second partition wall (hereinafter referred to as a partition wall 10b) disposed inside the partition wall 10a and having a partition wall 10b formed in a cross shape in plan view is defined as one unit. A plurality are arranged side by side without a gap. However, as shown in FIG. 7, adjacent unit blocks 11 are configured to share a part of the partition wall 10a.

  Here, a space defined by the partition 10a and the partition 10b of the unit block 11 (one of the spaces divided into four by the partition 10b in FIG. 8) will be referred to as a “gap part” 50 below. In addition, when it is necessary to distinguish the gaps 50 from each other, any one of the gaps 50 is hereinafter referred to as a “first gap” and arranged in parallel with the first gap. The other void portion 50 will be described as a “second void portion”.

  Here, although the mutual space | interval of the partition 10 is arbitrary, when the space | interval of the partition 10 is large (namely, the space | gap part 50 is large), when a person walks above the plant protection material 5, it will feel uncomfortable. In addition to the possibility, there is a possibility that the bottom of the shoe may be caught in the gap 50, which is not preferable. In particular, since the conventional well-known plastic plant protection material has a large opening, the pedestrian has a very poor feeling of walking and it is difficult to run a wheelbarrow or a stroller. On the other hand, in the plant protection material 5 of the present embodiment, the opening at the upper end of the gap 50 is about 1.5 cm from the viewpoint of ease of walking, the growth of the plant 9 and the ease of making the mold of the plant protection material 5. It is set to about × 1.5 cm to 2.5 cm × 2.5 cm.

  Further, the wall thickness of the partition wall 10 is arbitrary, but in this embodiment, it is necessary to taper the wall thickness in order to remove the mold from the mold and integrally form the partition wall 10. The wall thickness is about 1.5 mm to 2.5 mm, and the wall thickness at the lower end is thicker than this. The height of the partition wall 10 is arbitrary as long as at least a part of the plant 9 can be protected. Even if the leaves of the plant 9 are frayed, if the growth point located at the upper part of the stem is safe, the part above the growth point is regenerated, so that the partition wall 10 can protect the growth point. Is particularly preferable. For example, the height is about 3.5 cm to 7 cm.

  Here, the upper notch 12 and the lower notch 13 are formed in the partition wall 10, and the upper end of the part excluding the upper notch 12 in the partition wall 10 is formed so as to be located on the same plane. .

  The upper notch 12 is an opening provided in the partition wall 10, and is opposed to a facing space (that is, a space above the gap 50) located on the end face side facing the lower surface material 20 with the gap 50 interposed therebetween. A first plant intervening path that is an opening cut out so as to communicate with each other, from the inside of either the first gap portion or the second gap portion, via the upper cutout 12, It is the 1st plant intervening path which enables the plant 9 to interpose inside either one of the 1 gap part or the 2nd gap part.

  Specifically, the upper notch 12 is a notch having a trapezoidal shape when viewed from the side, formed at the upper ends of the partition walls 10a and 10b. Here, FIG. 9 is a cross-sectional view corresponding to FIG. 2 showing the vehicle 3 and the plant protection system 1. Since the upper notch 12 is formed in the partition wall 10a and the partition wall 10b as described above, the plant 9 can be stepped on by a person or the vehicle 3 to prevent death or damage. That is, for example, when the car 3 travels over the plant protection material 5, if the upper notch 12 is not provided, the plant 9 is sandwiched between the tire of the car 3 and the upper end of the partition wall 10. 9 may be broken. Therefore, by providing a notch in the partition wall 10 as in the present embodiment, the tip of the plant 9 pressed from above by the tire of the vehicle 3 reaches the adjacent gap 50 through the upper notch 12. Therefore, the plant 9 can be prevented from being broken between the tire of the car 3 and the upper end of the partition wall 10. Thus, the healthy growth of the plant 9 is possible by reducing the quantity which the plant 9 cuts into pieces. In addition, when using varieties such as Korai Shiba that grow on the stems (the stems that grow on the ground above the ground, and increase the number of new strains at the landing point), the stems pass through the upper notch 12. As a result, the stems do not hurt due to wheel load or treading pressure, so that it is possible to prevent the increase in the green coverage in the surface direction. Therefore, as compared with the case where the stems do not spread soundly, the plant 9 can spread and grow beyond the initial arrangement area, and self-repair by the grass at the withered portion can be facilitated.

  Here, the shape of the upper notch 12 is arbitrary, and is not limited to the trapezoidal shape as in the present embodiment. Further, the size of the upper notch 12 is preferably as large as possible. However, in the present embodiment, for example, the upper side is 10 mm to 50 mm (more A trapezoidal cross-sectional notch of preferably 20 mm to 25 mm), a base of 5 mm to 30 mm (more desirably 15 mm to 20 mm), and a height of 5 mm to 30 mm (more desirably 10 to 15 mm) is desirable.

  The lower notch 13 is an opening provided in the partition wall 10 and is a second plant intervening path that is an opening provided on the lower surface material 20 side than the upper notch 12, and is a first gap portion or a second gap portion. This is a second plant intervening path that allows the plant 9 to intervene from the inside of either one of the first cavity or the second cavity via the lower notch 13.

  Specifically, the lower notch 13 is a notch having a trapezoidal shape in a side view with a depth of about 1 cm formed at the lower end of the joint portion between the partition wall 10a and the partition wall 10b. Thus, by forming the lower notch 13 in the partition wall 10a and the partition wall 10b, the plant 9 can be grown from the first gap portion to the second gap portion via the lower notch 13. Therefore, it can promote that the plant 9 grows along the lower end part in the plant protection material 5 and can prevent the growth of the plant 9 from being hindered by the partition wall 10. That is, when the lower notch 13 is not provided, the stems in the plant 9 may come into contact with the partition wall 10 and the growth may be inhibited. However, by providing the lower notch 13 as in the present embodiment, the plant 9 can grow or propagate over a wide range through the lower notch 13. Furthermore, healthy growth of the plant 9 can be expected by appropriately dispersing the leaves of the plant 9 and efficiently receiving sunlight necessary for photosynthesis. Further, by forming the lower notch 13, it is possible to prevent the plant 9 from blocking the upper notch 12. That is, when the lower notch 13 is not provided, the stems in the plant 9 abut against the partition wall 10 and grow upward along the partition wall 10 to block the upper notch 12 so that the upper notch 12 does not function. There is a possibility that. However, by providing the lower notch 13 as in the present embodiment, the plant 9 can be prevented from growing upward along the partition wall 10 as described above, and the upper notch 12 will not function. It becomes possible to prevent things.

(Configuration-Plant protection material-Bottom material)
The lower surface material 20 has one end surface in the orthogonal direction (that is, the height direction) orthogonal to the juxtaposed surface of the first and second void portions in the void portion 50 (the lower end surface in the present embodiment). It is the end face material which covers. The lower surface material 20 is a member that roughly covers the lower end surface of the plant protection material 5. By increasing the contact area of the plant protection material 5 with the planting part 4, the person and the vehicle 3 can protect the plant. It is a member for preventing the plant protection material 5 from being buried in the planting part 4 when moving on the material 5. Specifically, the lower surface member 20 is a rectangular plate-like body and is formed integrally with the partition wall 10 and the outer frame member 30.

  Here, the lower surface member 20 has a circular hole 21 and a rectangular hole 22 as shown in FIGS. 2 and 4. In addition, although the aperture ratio of the circular hole 21 and the rectangular hole 22 with respect to the whole lower surface material 20 is arbitrary, the aperture ratio which can plant | plant 9 easily while maintaining the intensity | strength of the lower surface material 20 is preferable, for example, 30 to 70%. A degree of opening is desirable.

  The circular hole 21 is an end face material hole that allows the plant 9 to be interposed from the outside of the gap portion 50 to the inside of the gap portion 50 through the lower surface material 20. Specifically, the circular hole 21 is a hole having a regular circular shape in a plan view centered at a position directly below the cross-shaped intersection of the partition wall 10b. In addition, the circular hole 21 formed in the edge part and corner part of the lower surface material 20 is a planar view semicircle or planar view fan-shaped hole. By providing the circular hole 21 in this manner, the plant 9 planted in the planting part 4 reaches the inside of the gap 50 through the circular hole 21 and is protected by the partition wall 10 inside the gap 50. The Moreover, the said circular hole 21 also has a function as a drain for water to reach the planting part 4 through the said circular hole 21 when water is poured from on the plant protection material 5. FIG. In the present embodiment, it is assumed that the hole is a regular circle, but the shape and number of holes are arbitrary, and for example, a rectangle, a hexagon, or the bottom material 20 itself may be formed in a mesh shape. Moreover, although the magnitude | size of the circular hole 21 is arbitrary, in this Embodiment, it shall be a hole about (phi) 40 mm.

  The rectangular hole 22 is an end face material hole that allows the plant 9 to be interposed from the outside of the gap portion 50 into the gap portion 50 through the lower surface material 20, and either the first gap portion or the second gap portion. It is a hole for securing the space of the plant 9 which reaches from the inside of one side through the lower notch 13 to the inside of either the first gap portion or the second gap portion. Specifically, it is a rectangular hole in plan view formed so as to include a position directly below the lower notch 13 provided at the lower end of the partition wall 10a. By providing the rectangular hole 22 in this manner, the plant 9 planted in the planting part 4 reaches the inside of the void part 50 through the rectangular hole 22 in the same manner as the circular hole 21, and It is protected by the partition 10 inside. Moreover, when the said rectangular hole 22 sprinkles water from on the plant protection material 5 similarly to the circular hole 21, it passes through the said rectangular hole 22, and as water draining for water to reach the planting part 4. It also has a function. Further, more plants 9 can reach the second gap from the first gap through the lower notch 13, and the growth of the plant 9 can be further promoted. In the present embodiment, the holes are rectangular, but the shape and number of the holes are arbitrary, and for example, a circle, a hexagon, or the bottom material 20 itself may be formed in a mesh shape. In addition, although the magnitude | size of the rectangular hole 22 is arbitrary, in this Embodiment, it shall be a hole of about 10 mm x 20 mm.

(Configuration-Plant protection material-Outer frame material)
As shown in FIGS. 3 to 6, the outer frame member 30 is a frame member constituting the outer peripheral portion of the plant protection material 5. The outer frame member 30 is disposed so as to cover the front, rear, left and right four circumferences of the partition wall 10, and is formed in a shape in which four long plate-shaped bodies are combined at the end. In addition, the connection part 40 mentioned above is formed in the outer surface of an outer frame part, and it can mutually connect with the other plant protection material 5 by this connection part 40. FIG.

(Configuration-plant protection material-connecting part)
The connection part 40 is a connection means for connecting a plurality of plant protection materials 5 to each other. This connection part 40 has the protrusion-shaped connection part 41 and the groove-shaped connection part 42, the protrusion-shaped connection part 41 of the one plant protection material 5, and the groove-shaped connection part of the other plant protection material 5 By connecting 42 with each other, each plant protection material 5 can be mutually connected.

  Four protruding connection parts 41 are arranged at equal intervals with respect to each of the front side surface and the right side surface of the outer frame material 30 of each plant protection material 5. Each of these protruding connection parts 41 is a protrusion formed so as to protrude outward, and is formed in a hollow rectangular shape in plan view having a hole along the vertical direction.

  Moreover, the groove-shaped connection part 42 is formed with respect to the rear side surface and the left side surface in the outer frame material 30 of each plant protection material 5, and the projecting connection described above for each of the right end part and the rear end part. Four of them are arranged at positions corresponding to the projecting connecting parts 41 at the same intervals as the parts 41. And each groove-shaped connection part 42 cuts off the convex part which protrudes upwards between the said notches by notching so that a part of outer frame material 30 may be cut along the perpendicular direction, and upper part may be set as an opening. Formed and configured.

  And when connecting each plant protection material 5 mutually, these protruding connection parts 41 of one plant protection material 5 are these up and down so that it may fit in the groove-shaped connection part 42 of the other plant protection material 5 By superimposing the plant protection materials 5, connection can be performed. Specifically, the connection is performed by inserting the hole of the protruding connection part 41 into the convex part of the groove-like connection object. In addition, as long as each plant protection material 5 can be connected, the structure of the connection part 40 is arbitrary and is not limited to such a mechanism.

(Configuration-water collecting plate)
Returning to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the water collecting plate 6 is a water collecting means for collecting the water that has passed through the planting part 4. The water collecting plate 6 is a plate-like body disposed over the entire surface between the road bed 2 and the planting part 4. The water collecting plate 6 is made of a material that hardly permeates moisture (for example, metal), and is arranged with a gradient that allows water to travel through the surface. Then, rainwater or the like that has passed through the planting unit 4 is collected in a water collection tank or the like through the water collection plate 6, and the water in the tank can be reused for growing the plant 9.

(Configuration-tire stop)
The tire stopper 7 is a stopper for suppressing the movement of the car 3. FIG. 10 is a cross-sectional view corresponding to FIG. 2 showing the tire stopper 7 and the plant protection system 1. Two tire stops 7 are arranged in each parking space and attached to the plant protection material 5. Specifically, the tire stopper 7 includes a concrete block 7a and an elastic member 7b.

  The concrete block 7a is a rectangular parallelepiped concrete block, and holes 7c penetrating in the vertical direction are formed at a plurality of locations (two locations of the front end portion and the rear end portion in FIG. 10). The elastic member 7 b is an installation member for installing the concrete block 7 a on the plant protection material 5. Specifically, the elastic member 7b is formed from the upper surface of the concrete block 7a, one hole 7c of the concrete block 7a, any rectangular hole 22 of the plant protection material 5, the lower side of the lower surface material 20, and the plant protection material 5. It is an annular member that is arranged so as to reach the upper surface of the concrete block 7a through the other rectangular hole 22 and the other hole 7c of the concrete block 7a in this order. Thus, by arrange | positioning the elastic member 7b, it is comprised so that the concrete block 7a and the plant protection material 5 may be pulled in the direction which mutually attracts with an elastic force. When the vehicle 3 (not shown in FIG. 10) is parked, the tire of the vehicle 3 presses the tire stopper 7. At this time, the concrete block 7 a is moved to the vehicle 3 by the elastic force of the elastic member 7 b. Since the tire stop 7 is tilted in the traveling direction, the burden on the tire can be reduced as compared with the case where the tire stopper 7 is tightly coupled to the plant protection material 5.

(Configuration-Top material)
Returning to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the upper surface material 8 is an upper end material that covers a part of the space 50 of the plant protection material 5. Specifically, the top member 8 is attached so as to cover the upper end of the gap 50 of the unit unit, and is formed as a hexagonal columnar member having the same shape as the internal shape of the partition wall 10a. An arbitrary mark can be formed on the upper surface of the plant protection material 5 by covering the upper end of the gap 50 with the upper surface material 8. For example, in the present embodiment, by attaching the upper surface material 8 to each of the rows of the gap portions 50 arranged along the depth direction, as shown in FIG. A mark is formed. In addition, the said upper surface material 8 can be utilized also for another use, for example, you may form a sidewalk by arranging the upper surface material 8 along a predetermined range.
