Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the invention belongs]

 The present invention relates to ornaments that can be used as ornaments as well, which allows modern people who are less exposed to the natural environment to understand the splendor of ecosystems and the value of life.

[0002]

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

 The natural environment is decreasing year by year with urban development, and opportunities to come into contact with nature are decreasing. The idea is to make it possible to enjoy the ecosystem, including animals, not just plants, indoors, with simple equipment.

[0003]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In order to easily enjoy the ecosystem and observe the movement of nature, moss spores are planted, and porous rocks with pores on the surface, and granular materials placed around the porous rocks, Plants grow into porous rock using the water absorption and moisture retention properties of porous rock, and granules are arranged around the rock to make it closer to nature. Can be replenished.

[0004] Furthermore, by cutting the bottom surface of the porous rock flat, a stable plant growth base can be provided. By using porous rock as lava, an inexpensive and lightweight ecosystem breeding base was provided so that it could be observed. In addition, the pores of the porous rock were filled with vegetation base material to allow the plants to grow quickly.

【Example】

 Embodiment 1 FIG. 1 shows a basic configuration of an ornament for ecological observation according to the present invention. Lava is used as porous rock. In a plastic container 4 with a lid, one or two pieces of the lump of lava 1 having an appropriate size are placed. The container 4 is made of a water-impermeable material because the inside of the container 4 is made wet by adding water.

The bottom surface of the lava 1 is cut flat, and a hole 3 is formed in a surface side portion. Moss spores are buried in the pores in advance, or moss spores or dried spores are formed. Put the moss in a small bag and enclose in the container 4. The hole 3 can be a place where plants grow and where small animals grow.

When using the decorative article of the present invention, the lid of the container 4 is opened and laid under the container, the lava 1 is arranged at a desired position, and the granular material 5 such as pebbles is set around the lava 1. And pour water until the pebble 5 is submerged. Lava is a porous rock, has good water absorption, constantly sucks up water in the container 4, supplies it to plants such as moss planted on the surface of the lava, diffuses water into the air, and gives moisture to the room.

When the lava begins to absorb water, moss starts to grow and the lava surface becomes covered with moss. A cavity is formed in the lava so that plants can grow easily in the hole 3 provided in the lava, and a highly water-absorbing resin having a water absorbing and water retaining function (for example, a hydrolyzate of a starch-acrylonitrile graft polymer) is formed in the cavity. , A hydrolyzate of cellulose-acrylonitrile graft polymer), clay (containing montmorillonite and allophane), vermiculite, perlite of perlite, a mixture of calcined diatomaceous earth and fertilizer.

When filling the hollow portion, it is easy to fill the hollow portion by wrapping them in a net or a water-permeable bag so as to be deformable. The net should be small, such as polypropylene, and the water-permeable bag should be Japanese paper or non-woven fabric. Alternatively, the cavity may be filled with the superabsorbent resin as it is.

[0010] Since the holes drilled in the lava can be used as holes for flowers and flowers and trees, they can also be used as vase. FIGS. 2 and 3 show a container having a cylindrical or hemispherical shape. Since a hemispherical shape is unstable, a pedestal having a depression for accommodating the spherical shape is used.

[0011]

[Effect of the invention]

 The ecosystem observation ornaments of the present invention make it easy to observe the ecosystem indoors. In addition, flowers can be used or used as ornaments.
