Description

  The present invention relates to a wall planting base, and more particularly to a low cost wall base plant that can be efficiently drip-irrigated.

  Conventionally, there is a wall surface greening technique in which a plant is planted on a wall surface of a building to green the wall surface. By greening the outer walls of buildings, retaining walls of cliffs, fences, etc., the scenery of the walls can be improved, the reflection of sunlight can be warmed, and the temperature can be adjusted by the heat insulating effect of plants. The most common method for planting a plant wall is to plant a plant by fixing a large number of flower pots at predetermined intervals on the wall. Simple wall greening systems include a suspended wall greening unit that suspends a wall greening net from the roof, and a wall greening device that raises and lowers a planting unit with a wire. For example, there is a method in which a pocket is provided in a substrate made of a plastic material, and a pot-cultivated plant is placed in this pocket. The pockets are sloped so that the plants grow slightly diagonally above the ground.

  There is also a wall material in which a pocket filled with soil is provided on a wall plate and a drain hole is provided at the bottom thereof. There is also a wall surface greening method in which a pocket is provided in a planting panel having water retention / absorption means on the back surface, and plants in the pocket are grown by the water retention / absorption means. There is also a method in which a mat made of a combination of a sheet of coconut shell fiber and a metal net is directly attached to a wall surface to vegetate vines or attached root type plants. There is also a method in which a plant is planted in a hanger basket type hanging pot and the pot is hung on an existing handrail. Or, hold a plurality of planting units horizontally, hang them up and down at a predetermined interval, and draw out and wind up the wires with a roof-top lifting device so that the planting units are placed along the wall of the building. Lift up and down. This method makes it easy to install and remove planting units.

  Wall planting bases are used as a means for planting flowers on the walls and slopes. As a base for wall greening, there is a block type base that becomes a medium portion. Some greening units, which are unitized by supporting a nursery for planting with a frame material, are fixed to the wall of the building. The unit for accommodating the planting base and the plant is partitioned in a lattice shape. In addition, there is a three-dimensional wall surface greening method in which a wall is greened in a short time using a planted greening panel dedicated to wall greening. There is also a panel in which a hollow portion is filled with a filling having a water absorption function and a water retention function. This can perform water supply and fertilization with high efficiency, and has a planting part on the upper side of the container and a water storage part on the lower side. A continuous water-absorbing material is provided from the lower part of the water storage part to the upper part of the planting part. The water-absorbing material sucks up the water in the water storage part, and evenly supplies water to the soil in the planting part to grow the plant. There is also a method of arranging a base made of felt or non-woven fabric on the wall surface, and planting a plant seedling in this, thereby greening the vertical wall surface. In order to grow the plant with the ground vertical, in order to ensure sufficient water retention and water supply, the vertical plane is divided horizontally for each layer, and a container for storing soil is provided and planted. The water-retaining fiber sheet is used and a water supply mechanism is also provided.

  There are two methods for wall greening: a method in which a plant is planted on a base in advance, and a method in which a culture medium is installed and a plant is planted on the site. For example, rocks and soils that are lightweight and porous, such as pearlite and vermiculite, and are excellent in water retention, air permeability, and fertilization are used as the soil base material. These soil base materials are hardened with a binder to form a nursery bed having a predetermined shape. A plant that grows plants such as vines and vines on a nursery is attached to the wall of the building through a frame. Alternatively, anchors are placed on the outer wall of the building, bolts are attached, and a wall greening panel with high water retention is fixed to the wall with a nut.

  In order to grow plants, it is necessary to artificially water. As a method for irrigating a wall planting plant, there is a method in which an irrigation pipe is placed on the upper surface of a nursery bed so that water is supplied from the irrigation pipe to the nursery bed. In addition, there is one in which soil and an irrigation device are placed in a wall frame and plants are planted on the wall surface. There is also a irrigation method for a wall planting planter that collects rainwater in a water tank and supplies it to a planter attached to the outer wall surface. As a method of uniformly irrigating, there is a greening system in which evenly dispersed irrigation can be performed by irrigating the planter with irrigation means utilizing capillary action. As a method of reducing the amount of water, an irrigation pipe having a large number of small holes is horizontally arranged with respect to a unit that accommodates a planting base and a plant, and planted from the small holes of the irrigation pipe. There is a method of spraying water directly on the base and plants. The irrigation pipe is provided with a number of drip holes, and irrigation drops from the drip holes onto the water retaining mat.

  In order to maintain the state of the plant well, it is necessary to manage the amount of water such as reducing irrigation on a cloudy day and increasing irrigation on a sunny day, and management of topdressing according to the plant. There is also a method of installing a moisture meter or thermometer on the soil, converting the measured values into electrical signals, inputting these data into a computer, and supplying water under computer control. Below, some examples of the prior art regarding wall surface greening are shown.

  The “three-dimensional flower bed forming base frame” disclosed in Patent Document 1 can easily form a three-dimensional flower bed such as a spherical flower bed or a wall-like flower bed for decoration or advertising. As shown to Fig.8 (a), a some insertion hole is penetrated by the board | substrate surface of the base frame main body for solid flower bed formation. A cylindrical body is put into the inner surface side of the substrate from each insertion hole, and the cylindrical body is attached to the peripheral portion of the insertion hole. There is a water passage around the cylindrical body. A water-retaining substance such as moss or sponge is filled between the cylindrical bodies on the inner surface side of the substrate.

  The “slope greening structure” disclosed in Patent Document 2 enables smooth and reliable greening even on slopes that tend to collapse. As shown in FIG.8 (b), a basic vegetation base material is formed by hardening a wooden chip with cement. Lay the foundation vegetation base on the slope to be greened. A plurality of soil filling vegetation base materials are provided and fixed on the basic vegetation base material. The vegetation base material for filling the soil is also formed by hardening wood chips with cement. Furthermore, the soil filling hole for filling the soil is penetrating between the upper and lower surfaces. By laying a basic vegetation base material on the entire slope that tends to collapse, the slope can be reinforced to prevent the slope from collapsing. In this way, the slope can be greened reliably.

  The “porous molded body” disclosed in Patent Document 3 is light and can save water and fertilizer for plant cultivation. As shown in FIG.8 (c), a foaming agent is added to the granular glass material which grind | pulverized the glass product. By pulverizing these, powdery glass comprising a powdery glass material and a foaming agent is generated. Powdered glass is mixed with granular zeolite to form a mixture. A mixture of glass material, blowing agent and zeolite is fired and cooled to obtain a porous molded body.

  The “unit-type base” disclosed in Patent Document 4 is a base for planting a plant on a wall surface of a building or the like, and can simplify the time and labor of planting and replacement work. As shown in FIG. 8 (d), a base plate made of a plastic material is provided with pockets for storing a plurality of cylindrical plants. The cylindrical pocket is inclined. A drain hole made of a mesh for draining is provided at the rear of the cylindrical pocket.

  The “planting base for wall surface” disclosed in Patent Document 5 is inexpensive and not bulky, can be easily attached to the wall surface, and prevents soil from falling down from the planting pot. As shown in FIG.8 (e), the planting base for wall surfaces consists of a saucer, a tray, a holder, and a pressing lid. The saucer has a peripheral frame around it. The tray is formed with a frustoconical planting pot to be received in the tray. The holder is provided with a partially open pocket that projects in the same diameter and position as the planting pot while attached to the tray. The presser lid has an open window that projects the pocket outward and a presser bar that presses around the pocket. With the holder pocket protruding outward from the tray planting pot, the side frame of the presser lid is fitted to the peripheral frame of the tray. It attaches to a wall surface in this state, and a plant is planted in the continuous room formed with each pocket and a planting pot.

  The “wall greening panel” disclosed in Patent Document 6 is a wall greening panel suitable for indoor greening in which water is not scattered and wastewater treatment is unnecessary. The structure is simple, low cost and extremely easy to handle. As shown in FIG. 9, there is a storage room for storing a planting base such as soil and plants. An opening is formed on the front side of the panel body so as to expose the plant to the outside. There is a water supply tank on the back side of the panel body. With the water guide sheet, the water in the water supply tank is supplied to the storage chamber of the panel body by capillary action. One end of the water guide sheet is immersed in the water in the water supply tank. The other end of the water guide sheet is connected to the storage chamber of the panel body.

  However, conventional wall planting bases have the following problems. If there is no irrigation equipment, it will take time to water. Even if there are irrigation facilities, it is difficult to distribute the water uniformly, and there is a lot of waste of water. Even drip irrigation equipment that can save water cannot supply water uniformly to the planting panel, so depending on the position of the plant of the flowering plant, the water supply amount may be excessive or insufficient, or the water may be wasted.

  The object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems and to enable the drip irrigation to be efficiently and uniformly applied to the planting base for the wall surface. Another object of the present invention is to further reduce the manufacturing cost of the wall planting base.

  In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, in the present invention, a wall-planting base is made of permeable concrete in which a plurality of planting holes opened obliquely with respect to the surface are formed so as not to overlap in the irrigation flow direction. A rectangular planting panel, a holding frame that supports the planting panel to form a wall surface, a drip-type watering pipe installed on the upper part of the holding frame, and water drops dripped from the watering pipe are spread uniformly. And a diffusion cloth that moisturizes the planting panel.

  By comprising as mentioned above, drip irrigation can be efficiently and uniformly applied to the planting panel by the diffusion cloth, and the watering tube can be reduced, so that the manufacturing cost of the planting base for the wall can be reduced.

  Hereinafter, the best mode for carrying out the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIGS.

  In the embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of rectangular planting panels made of water-permeable concrete formed with three planting holes opened obliquely upward with respect to the surface so as not to overlap in the flow-down direction of the irrigation are provided with a holding frame. For wall surfaces where a wall surface is formed by supporting a sheet, a drip-type watering pipe is installed on the upper part of the holding frame, and water drops dripped from the watering pipe are spread evenly with a diffusion cloth to moisten the planting panel. It is a planting base.

  In FIG. 1, the planting base for wall surfaces of this invention is shown. A planting panel is shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. In FIG. 4, the planting state of a planting panel is shown. FIG. 5 shows the drip irrigation mechanism. In FIG. 6, the modification of the planting base for wall surfaces is shown. In FIG. 7, another modification of the planting base for wall surfaces is shown. In FIG. 1 to FIG. 7, the planting panel 1 is a rectangle made of permeable concrete in which a plurality of planting holes for planting plants that are opened obliquely with respect to the surface are formed so as not to overlap in the flow direction of irrigation. This is a water-permeable panel. The implantation hole 2 is an oblique hole for planting a plant. The holding frame 3 is a frame for supporting the planting panel. The water spray pipe 4 is a water supply pipe for drip irrigation. The diffusion cloth 5 is a cloth for uniformly diffusing water drops horizontally. The flower bud 6 is a plant such as a flower or shrub. The water supply pipe 7 is a pipe for supplying water from a water supply or the like to the water spray pipe. The culture soil 8 is soil for planting plants. The regulating valve 9 is a valve that regulates the amount of water supply.

  The function of the wall planting base in the embodiment of the present invention configured as described above will be described. First, an outline of the configuration of the wall surface planting base will be described with reference to FIG. The pulverized pumice, Portland cement, and water ready-mixed concrete are hardened into a plate shape to form a water-permeable rectangular planting panel 1. At that time, a plurality of implantation holes 2 opened obliquely upward on the surface are formed so as not to overlap in the flow direction of irrigation. A plurality of planting panels 1 are supported by the holding frame 3 to form a wall surface. The holding frame 3 may be metal, wood, or plastic as long as it is lightweight, strong, and low in cost. A drip-type water spray pipe 4 is provided at the top of the holding frame 3 and connected to a water supply pipe 7. The water supply source may be water supply, industrial water, groundwater or rainwater, and tanks and pumps are provided as necessary. A diffusion cloth is provided on the planting panel directly under the water spray pipe 4. In FIG. 1, the diffusion cloth is not shown.

  The floret 6 grown in the seedling pot made of synthetic resin is extracted from the seedling pot and inserted into each planting hole 2. Drip irrigation from the watering pipe 4, spread the water uniformly with a diffusion cloth, and moisten the planting panel 1. The amount of water supply is adjusted by the control valve 9. Water is transmitted through the permeable planting panel 1 to sufficiently irrigate the planting panel 1 in the bottom row. Thus, since the roots of the flower buds 6 are settled on the pumice planting panel 1 with a minimum amount of water, water can be efficiently irrigated for wall planting. FIG.1 (b) arrange | positions so that the difference of the density of the implantation hole 2 may become small compared with Fig.1 (a). The vertical density is the same, but the horizontal density is different. The wall planting base is optimally installed with the holding frame 3 fixed to a substantially vertical wall such as a building wall, but can also be installed on a slightly slanted wall. In that case, it is advisable to provide water guiding means appropriately so that water does not spill at the joint of the planting panel 1.

  Next, the configuration of the planting panel of the planting base for wall surface will be specifically described with reference to FIG. The green concrete mixed with pumice, Portland cement and water is hardened into a plate shape to make a planting panel 1 of water-retaining / permeable concrete / block. 50 to 62% by weight of pumice with a particle size of 3 to 20 mm and 50 to 38% by weight of Portland cement. 40 to 50% by weight of water is sprayed and kneaded with respect to the blend having a total weight of 100%. This ready-mixed concrete is put into a mold and hardened into a rectangular plate shape having a thickness of 6 cm and a side length of about 40 to 45 cm. The manufacturing method of water-retaining / permeable concrete / block is not limited to this, and any one of well-known porous concrete manufacturing methods may be appropriately selected. In addition, although the magnitude | size of this planting panel 1 was determined to the weight (about 5 kg) which is easy to carry by one person, what is necessary is just to set a magnitude | size and a weight suitably according to the intended purpose.

  Form a mold to harden the concrete so as to open three implantation holes 2 in a pumice concrete block. For example, two implantation holes 2 are opened on the upper left and right, and one implantation hole 2 is opened in the lower center. By carrying out like this, water spreads evenly to each implantation hole 2. If another implantation hole 2 is provided immediately below the implantation hole 2, irrigation will not flow into the lower implantation hole 2, so that the vertical interval between the implantation holes 2 should be as large as possible. In addition, even when two planting panels 1 are stacked, the uppermost planting hole 2 of the lower planting panel 1 comes directly under the lowermost planting hole 2 of the upper planting panel 1. There is also a need to avoid it. Therefore, it is preferable to arrange the planting holes 2 so as to be scattered throughout the planting panel 1.

  Next, the cross section of a planting panel is demonstrated, referring FIG. FIG. 3B is a cross-sectional view taken along the line AA in FIG. FIG. 3C is a BB cross-sectional view of FIG. As shown in the cross-sectional view, a plurality of implantation holes opened obliquely with respect to the surface are formed in a rectangular planting panel made of permeable concrete so as not to overlap in the direction of irrigation flow. The implantation hole 2 opens obliquely upward. This is to prevent the culture soil from falling from the front side of the planting panel 1. In order to prevent the culture soil from falling from the rear side of the planting panel 1, the culture soil is wrapped with a net-like sheet or a synthetic resin fiber nonwoven fabric and inserted into the planting holes 2.

  Next, with reference to FIG. 4, a state in which florets are planted on the planting panel will be described. FIG. 4B is a cross-sectional view taken along the line AA in FIG. FIG. 4C is a cross-sectional view taken along the line BB in FIG. The floret 6 grown in the seedling pot made of synthetic resin is extracted from the seedling pot, wrapped in a net-like sheet, and inserted into each planting hole 2. A net-like sheet | seat is for keeping culture soil from spilling from an implantation hole. The back of the planting hole may be covered with a plate or net, but this is expensive.

  Next, the configuration of the drip irrigation mechanism of the wall planting base will be specifically described with reference to FIG. FIG. 5A is a front view, and FIG. 5B is a cross-sectional view. Along the upper edge of the holding frame 3, a watering pipe 4 having a large number of drip holes is provided. Water is supplied to the planting panel 1 through the diffusion cloth 5 with the watering pipe 4. A non-woven band made of synthetic resin fiber or felt is used as the diffusion cloth 5 and is spread on the planting panel 1 of pumice concrete block. Due to the capillary phenomenon of the diffusion cloth 5, the water of the drip penetrates the diffusion cloth 5 uniformly. The water of the diffusion cloth 5 uniformly permeates the water-permeable planting panel 1. The water flowing down the planting panel 1 soaks into the culture soil and grows the plant. If necessary, liquid fertilizer may be mixed with irrigation.

  The lower planting panel 1 is arranged directly or via a diffusion cloth under the upper planting panel 1. Water flows from the upper planting panel 1 to the lower planting panel 1, and water reaches all the florets. If there is excessive water, it will fall from the lower surface of the bottommost planting panel 1, so the amount of water supply is adjusted by the control valve 9 so that water does not fall from here. Since some water overflows, drainage means is provided as appropriate. The drainage may be returned to the water supply side. You may provide the automatic control apparatus which adjusts the amount of water supply with the control valve 9 according to the amount of drainage. In this way, when various plants are planted in the planting panel 1, the roots are well stretched because of high air permeability, the roots extend into the planting panel 1, and the growth of the plants is promoted. By adopting the diffusion cloth 5, water can be easily and uniformly irrigated with a small number of sprinkling pipes 4, so that the cost is reduced.

  Next, the modification of the planting base for wall surfaces is demonstrated, referring FIG. In this example, the water spray pipe 4 is provided for every two stages of the planting panel 1. In FIG. 6, illustration of the diffusion cloth is omitted. When planting panels 1 are stacked in four or more stages and irrigated with one sprinkling pipe 4, the difference in the amount of irrigation between the uppermost stage and the lowermost stage becomes large, resulting in a difference in plant growth. In order to avoid that, a watering pipe 4 is provided for every two stages of the planting panel 1. A control valve 9 is provided for each water spray pipe 4 to finely adjust each water supply amount. Since there are two florets 6 overlapping in the vertical direction, the lower floret 6 is supplied with substantially the same amount of water as the upper floret 6. Since the overlapping of the florets 6 in the horizontal direction is almost uniform, it looks good.

  Next, another modification of the wall planting base will be described with reference to FIG. As the planting panel 1, one having five planting holes 2 is used. The five implantation holes 2 are arranged so as not to overlap in the vertical direction and the horizontal direction. By doing so, all the florets 6 can be irrigated uniformly, and the florets 6 are also spread and planted on average, so that the appearance is also improved. The water spray pipe 4 is provided for each stage of the planting panel 1. A control valve 9 is provided for each water spray pipe 4 to finely adjust each water supply amount. In FIG. 7, the diffusion cloth is not shown. If five plants are planted on the planting panel 1, water consumption increases, so a large number of sprinkling tubes 4 are provided so that the uneven irrigation amount is reduced. Depending on conditions, the planting panel 1 having three planting holes 2 and the planting panel 1 having five planting holes 2 may be mixed and used.

  As described above, according to the present invention, the wall-planting base is made of a permeable concrete rectangular shape in which three planting holes opened obliquely upward with respect to the surface are formed so as not to overlap in the irrigation flow direction. A plurality of planting panels are supported by a holding frame to form a wall surface, a drip-type watering pipe is installed on the upper part of the holding frame, and water drops dripped from the watering pipe are spread evenly with a diffusion cloth and planted. Since the planting panel is moistened, drip irrigation can be performed efficiently.

  The wall planting base of the present invention is optimal as a plant base for wall greening such as buildings and fences. Moreover, it is also suitable as a planting base for decorations such as indoors and event halls.
