Abstract

(57) [Abstract] [PROBLEMS] The present invention does not require a separate construction for securing a vegetation space for a conventional pedestrian road boundary block, and the construction management of the vegetation space is easy, and construction is possible on a curved road. It is also possible to provide a pedestrian road boundary block that saves the trouble of cutting and replanting plants such as flowers. SOLUTION: A pedestrian road boundary in which a vegetation pocket part 3 provided with a flower bed or the like for vegetation of a plant 10 such as a flower on the sidewalk 9 is continuously laid on the boundary between the roadway 8 and the sidewalk 9. It is integrated with the block body 2. In addition, a vegetation bag 11 in which the root of the plant 10 and the soil portion around it are inserted.
When the plant is withered or replanted, the entire vegetation bag 11 is replaced.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the device belongs]

 The present invention relates to a walkway boundary block. More specifically, the present invention relates to a pedestrian road boundary block (hereinafter referred to as a “boundary block”) having a vegetation pocket for planting trees or flower beds near the roadway on the sidewalk.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Traditionally, sidewalks have been provided with vegetation spaces for planting trees and cultivating various flowers in order to improve the landscape as part of improving the road environment. This vegetation space is formed by embankment of a certain width along the roadway on the sidewalk. Blocks are continuously laid on the sidewalks to stop the embankment. This boundary block is generally formed by laying a plurality of concrete blocks continuously.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, the above conventional boundary block has the following drawbacks. (A) In addition to the construction and construction work of the boundary block, in order to secure a vegetation space, it was necessary to form a bank of a certain width along the road and stop this bank with another block. (B) Furthermore, in planting construction management, it was necessary to mow dead plants and replant them, which was a troublesome task.

The present invention does not require separate construction work for the boundary block and the vegetation space, facilitates the construction management of planting, and saves labor for cutting and replanting plants. The purpose is to provide.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The present invention has been made to achieve the above object. The point is that vegetation pockets used for vegetation of plants such as flowers are integrally provided in the pedestrian road boundary block that is concrete-molded and laid at the boundary between the sidewalk and the roadway. Also, a vegetation bag was used for planting in the vegetation pocket. The boundary block according to the present invention is concretely molded into a columnar body having a constant length and is continuously laid. It is preferable that one of the end faces of the boundary block is provided with a concave portion and the other is provided with a convex portion. By combining the concave portion and the convex portion adjacent to each other, it is possible to prevent misalignment after installation. The vegetation pocket formed integrally with the boundary block is preferably shorter in length than the boundary block so that the vegetation pocket can be constructed even on a curved road, and it is preferable to provide a water permeable hole on the bottom surface.

[0006]

[Embodiment of device]

 Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings, but the present invention is not limited to these embodiments. 1 and 2 show an entire boundary block according to an embodiment of the present invention. In the figure, 1 indicates the entire boundary block, 2 indicates the block body portion (hereinafter referred to as “block body portion”), and 3 indicates the vegetation pocket portion (hereinafter referred to as “vegetation pocket portion”). Reference numeral 4 indicates a wall surface inside the vegetation pocket portion 3, reference numeral 5 indicates a convex portion provided on one end surface of the block body portion 2, and reference numeral 6 indicates a concave portion provided on the other end surface. 3 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line III-III of FIG. 2 and FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line IV-IV of FIG. In this figure, 7 is a water-permeable hole provided on the bottom surface of the vegetation pocket 3, 8 is a roadway, 9 is a sidewalk, 10 is a plant such as a flower, and 11 is a vegetation bag. The size of the block body 2 is usually designed based on JIS A 5307. As shown in FIG. 3, the block body 2 is installed on the side of the road 8 and the vegetation pocket 3 is installed on the side of the sidewalk 9. It

The length of the vegetation pocket 3 is shorter than that of the block body 2. This is to prevent the vegetation pockets 3 from interfering with each other when the boundary block 1 is constructed and installed on a curved road. Further, the number of the water permeation holes 7 is not limited to three as shown in FIG. 2, and an appropriate number is provided according to the size of the vegetation pocket 3. Further, the wall surface 4 on the inner side of the vegetation pocket portion 3 is inclined in order to improve the workability of cutting and replanting the plant. The vegetation bag 11 is made of a polymer material, such as polyethylene or vinyl chloride woven cloth, which does not decay. The seeds are placed in this to cultivate plants such as flowers according to the season, and when the plant is withered or replanted, the entire vegetation bag 11 is replaced. This saves labor such as mowing and replanting, and enables reuse. Further, when the vegetation bag 11 is a non-perforated cloth, an appropriate number of drain holes are provided. FIG. 5 shows a partially cutaway perspective view of a state in which the boundary blocks described above are continuously laid and plants are vegetated.

Other Embodiments (1) Regarding the shape of the boundary block 1, other embodiments are shown in FIGS. In FIG. 6, the length of the vegetation pocket portion 3 is the same as that of the block main body portion 2, and the convex portion 5 and the concave portion 6 on the end surface of the block main body portion 2 are not provided. (2) In FIG. 7, the width of the boundary block 1 is increased, and the vegetation pocket portion 3 is provided at the center in the width direction. (3) FIG. 8 shows the boundary block 1 used at the end when the boundary block 1 shown in FIG. 7 is continuously laid, and its end surface has a semicircular shape. (4) Further, the shape of the vegetation pocket portion 3 is not limited to a box shape, and may be an elliptical shape or a semicircular shape. Boundary Block Manufacturing Method In manufacturing the boundary block 1, concrete is driven into a steel wax (not shown) having a shape in which the block body 2 and the vegetation pocket 3 are integrated, vibration compaction molding is performed, and press working is performed. Then, remove the mold and cure.

[0009]

EFFECTS OF THE INVENTION As is clear from the above, the following effects can be obtained by the present invention. (A) Since the block body and the vegetation pocket are integrated, the vegetation space can be secured by only the production of the boundary block and the construction work, and the process can be shortened. (B) Since it is a factory-processed product, construction management of the vegetation space is easy. (C) By adopting a vegetation bag in which seeds are placed in the vegetation pocket and replacing the vegetation bag with each other, it is possible to save the trouble of cutting and replanting plants such as flowers. (D) Even when construction is performed on curved roads, the length of the vegetation pocket is shorter than that of the block body, so the vegetation pockets do not interfere with each other and construction work is possible. (E) Since the vegetation bag does not decay, it can be reused.
