In this state, the upper container 3 is disposed so as to cover the lower container 2. That is, the upper container 3 is placed over the lower container 2 so that the opening of the lower container 2 and the opening of the upper container 3 face each other. Specifically, the upper portion of the coupling pipe 4 is passed through the through hole 35 a of the upper container 3, and the upper nut 44 a is screwed into the male thread portion 41 b of the coupling pipe 4 and tightened.

  When the upper container 3 is put on the lower container 2, the positions of the partition plate 34c of the upper container 3 and the partition plate 22c of the lower container 2, and the partition plate 34d of the upper container 3 and the partition plate 22b of the lower container 2 are matched. Arrange as follows.

In a state where the lower container 2 and the upper container 3 are combined, as shown in FIG. 4, the tangent line where the opening edge of the upper container 3 and the opening edge of the lower container 2 are joined is represented by a joining line Lj. In this case, the planting port 34a, the auxiliary planting port 34b, and the planting port 22a are formed on the inclined peripheral wall 34 of the upper container 3 and the inclined peripheral wall 22 of the lower container 2 with this as the center line. A planting opening is constructed.
If the number of planting ports is sufficient, only the planting port 34a of the peripheral wall 34 of the upper container 3 may be formed.

  Next, the stand device 5 of the cultivation container 1 will be described with reference to FIG. The stand device 5 is a device capable of stably arranging a plurality of cultivation containers 1 stacked in the vertical direction.

  The stand device 5 includes a bottom plate 51 as a base, a support column 52, and a cultivation container loading table 53. The coupling pipe 4 of the cultivation container 1 is passed through the support column 52 of the stand device 5, and the cultivation container 1 is stacked in a plurality of stages and arranged three-dimensionally.

  The bottom plate 51 is made of resin or metal and is formed in a substantially circular flat plate shape having a diameter that is about 5 cm larger than the diameter of the cultivation container 1. A plurality of, specifically, four through holes 51 a are formed in the outer peripheral edge of the bottom plate 51. The substantially L-shaped anchor 51b passes through the through hole 51a, and the bottom plate 51 is fixed to the ground by the anchor 51b. A flanged nut 51 c is attached to the center of the bottom plate 51. The flanged nut 51 c may be formed integrally with the bottom plate 51.

  The support column 52 is a long bolt, and one end thereof is screwed into the flanged nut 51 c and fixed to stand on the bottom plate 51. The support column 52 is preferably made of metal from the viewpoint of strength.

  The cultivation container mounting base 53 is made of resin, and is formed by joining a plate-like member similar to the upper container dish-like portion 32 to a substantially circular flat plate. In addition, a cylindrical portion 53a having a relatively small diameter is provided at the center, and a through-hole 53b through which the support column 52 passes is formed in the cylindrical portion 53a. Furthermore, a plurality of casters 53c are attached to the bottom surface side of the cultivation container mounting base 53 in parallel with the circle around a circle of a substantially circular flat plate. The cultivation container loading platform 53 configured as described above is installed on the bottom plate 51 with the support 52 penetrating through the through hole 53b.

  As will be described later, the stand device 5 is provided with a fixed metal 54, a pair of locking nuts 55 for fastening the fixed metal 54, a safety cap 56 attached to the uppermost end of the column 52, and a connecting metal 57. Yes. These members are preferably made of metal or resin.

  Next, the planting procedure of the plant in the cultivation container 1 will be described with reference to FIGS. First, the coupling pipe 4 is attached to the lower container 2 as described above. Next, the cultivation container loading platform 53 is installed on the bottom plate 51 by penetrating the support 52 of the stand device 5 through the through hole 53 b of the cultivation container loading platform 53.

In the lower container 2 to which the coupling pipe 4 is attached, the coupling pipe 4 is passed through the support column 52 and the lower container 2 is set on the cultivation container stacking table 53. In this state, as shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 6, the culture soil is put at a height of about 7 minutes of the lower container 2, and the angle θ ₁ with respect to the horizontal at the planting port 22 a of the lower container 2 becomes about 15 degrees. So as to plant the plant.

Then, the angle theta ₂ is planting a plant so that 45 degrees with the horizontal in the position of the partition plate 22c formed in an intermediate portion of each planting hole 22a, below the nut 44b mounted on the upper portion of the coupling pipe 4 Pile culture soil up to a mountain. And the upper container 3 is covered so that the planting port 34a of the upper container 3 may be arrange | positioned in the position of the partition plate 22c of the lower container 2. FIG. Thereby, the auxiliary planting port 34b and the planting port 22a are combined to form a substantially elliptical planting port, so that the plant growth range can be relaxed.

As representatively shown in FIG. 4, the cultivation container 1 is configured to change the planting angle of the plant. Specifically, planting angle theta ₁ of the lower container 2 side is set to approximately 15 degrees to the horizontal, planting angle theta ₂ of the upper chamber 3 side is approximately 45 degrees to the horizontal. That is, the configuration is such that θ ₁ <θ ₂ .

The planted plants grow around these planting angles θ ₁ and θ ₂ , but grow on the lower container 2 side so as to spread slightly downward around the planting angle θ ₁ and plant in the upper container 3. It grows so as to spread slightly upward with the angle θ ₂ as the center. And as these plants grow, they are covered with plants so that the side of the cultivation container 1 cannot be seen. In addition, the arrow in FIG. 4 has shown the planting direction of the plant.

  Thereafter, the upper part of the coupling pipe 4 is passed through the through hole 35a of the upper container 3, and the upper nut 44a is screwed and tightened. Thus, planting of the plant to the cultivation container 1 is completed (refer FIG. 7).

  In the cultivation container 1 as described above, the partitions 22b and 22c of the lower container 2 and the partitions 34c and 34d of the upper container 3 have three roles. First, reinforcing the strength of each opening of the lower container 2 and the upper container 3 and the planting port 22a, the planting port 34a and the auxiliary planting port 34b, and second, the upper container 3 and the lower container 2 Is to prevent the planted plant from being broken or damaged, and thirdly, to make it easier to understand the planting position of the plant.

  In addition, according to the plant planting procedure described above, since the culture soil is put and the plant is planted with the lower container 2 set on the stand device 5, the weight burden is reduced and the operation is facilitated. That is, when culture soil is put in the cultivation container 1 and a plant is planted, when the cultivation container 1 is set on the stand device 5, it becomes heavy and a heavy burden is imposed.

  Next, a case where a plurality of cultivation containers 1 in which plants are planted are stacked and arranged to constitute the cultivation container unit 10 will be mainly described with reference to FIGS. 9 and 10. In this embodiment, the form which piles up and arrange | positions the cultivation container 1 in 3 steps | paragraphs is shown, for example.

  In a state where the first stage cultivation container 1 is placed and set on the cultivation container loading table 53, the second stage cultivation container 1 is stacked with the coupling pipe 4 penetrating through the support column 52. In this case, the hemispherical projection 23 a of the leg 23 provided on the lower container 2 is brought into contact with the upper container dish-shaped part 32 of the first-stage upper container 3.

  Subsequently, the cultivation container 1 in the third stage is stacked by passing the coupling pipe 4 through the support column 52. Similarly, the hemispherical projection 23 a of the leg 23 provided on the lower container 2 is brought into contact with the upper container dish-shaped part 32 of the second-stage upper container 3. The third-stage cultivation container 1 is the uppermost cultivation container 1, and plants are planted corresponding to only the uppermost planting opening 35b (see FIG. 8).

  In such a cultivation container unit 10, the cultivation container 1 is sandwiched between the coupling pipe 4, the lower reinforcing plate 43, the upper reinforcing plate 45, and the like, and most of the load is transmitted to the lower cultivation container loading platform 53. For this reason, there is a possibility that the lower cultivation container 1 may be deformed or destroyed by a load from the upper cultivation container 1.

  Therefore, in order to prevent deformation and weight destruction of the cultivation container 1, it is preferable to provide a load receiving means. The load receiving means is provided between the cultivation containers 1 arranged in a plurality of stages. Specifically, the load receiving means is composed of a pair of locking nuts 55. The pair of retaining nuts 55 are double nuts and are attached to the columns 52 between the first and second stage cultivation containers 1 and between the second and third stage cultivation containers 1. As a result, the hemispherical protrusion 42c on the lower surface side of the lower nut 42b is brought into contact with the upper surface side of the locking nut 55. For this reason, the load is applied to the support column 52 and applied to the bottom plate 51 without the load of the upper cultivation container 1 being applied to the lower cultivation container 1.

  Note that a fixed metal piece 54 is fastened to the upper portion of the support column 52 extending from the uppermost cultivation container 1 by a pair of retaining nuts 55. A safety cap 56 is attached to the uppermost end of the column 52 for safety.

  Such a cultivation container unit 10 comes to be fixed to the ground by the anchor 51b, but by fixing it to a fixed structure 54 with a string, a wire, or the like, it is fixed in a strong wind, an earthquake, or carelessly. Even if a person touches it, it does not fall down, and it can have a more stable and safe structure.

  As described above, according to the cultivation container unit 10 of the present embodiment, not only space saving and labor saving are achieved, but there is an effect that plants are more beautifully visible. People feel beautiful when they focus on their eyes, and when they are planted in a typical flower bed or planter, they look down from top to bottom, but the focus at that time is linear. In the case of this cultivation container unit 10, since it also focuses on the height direction, the range of the focus becomes a surface, and more beauty can be felt.

  Moreover, since sunlight strikes the inclined peripheral wall 34 of the upper container 3 at a substantially right angle, more effective sunlight can be obtained for the plant. Furthermore, since the upper part of the cultivation container 1 is heated more in the internal soil, a temperature difference is generated, and air convection is born inside. As a result, air enters from the lower part and exits from the upper part. , Fresh oxygen will be supplied to the roots, and the roots will be more activated. By planting a plant in the planting port 34a in the inclined peripheral wall 34, a bouleme can be produced visually and an effective production can be achieved.

  Since the opening of the lower container 2 and the opening of the upper container 3 are combined so as to face each other, and the upper container 3 is arranged to cover the lower container 2, the scattering of the culture soil in the lower container 2 can be reduced. it can. In addition, since plants are planted in the planting port 34a and the like, weeds can be prevented from growing and management is facilitated.

  In addition, when the lower container 2 and the upper container 3 are combined, the opening edge of the upper container 3 is sized so as to enter and contact the inside of the opening of the lower container 2, so In such a case, water easily enters the lower container 2.

  By the casters 53 c of the cultivation container loading table 53, the cultivation container loading table 53 can rotate around the support column 52, that is, the cultivation container unit 10 can be rotated, and the leg 23 of the cultivation container 1 has a hemispherical protrusion. 23a is provided, and further, a hemispherical protrusion 42c is also provided on the lower surface side of the lower nut 42b. Therefore, the frictional force is reduced, and the cultivation container 1 can be easily rotated and rotated individually. It is possible to optimize the sunshine conditions.

That is, the contact portion between the cultivation container 1 arranged at the upper part and the cultivation container 1 arranged at the lower part is provided with a hemispherical projection 23a for reducing the frictional force, and the cultivation container 1 is rotated individually. It can be done.

  Furthermore, since the leg part 23 is provided in the bottom wall 21 of the lower container 2, when the cultivation container 1 is stacked, a space | gap is formed between the upper cultivation container 1 and the lower cultivation container 1. FIG. Therefore, drainage, breathability and watering can be secured by the drain hole 21b and the additional fertilizer opening 22d.

  Moreover, watering can be performed from the uppermost planting port 35b and the water supply hole 35c in the uppermost cultivation container 1, and the supplied water is supplied to the lower cultivation container 1. For this reason, it can avoid that a plant (flower) directly splashes water, and can suppress the pain of a plant.

  This cultivation container 1 can plant 12 plants, and the cultivation container unit 10 stacked in three stages can plant 16 plants at the top, for a total of 40 plants. it can.

  In addition, when providing a load receiving means as described above, the upper container 3 in the cultivation container 1 is omitted, only the lower container 2 is applied, and the lower container 2 is stacked to constitute a cultivation container unit. Is also possible.

  Next, a second embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. In addition, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to the part which is the same as that of 1st Embodiment, or an equivalent part, and the overlapping description is abbreviate | omitted.
