Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea]

0001

[Industrial application field]

This invention relates to a plant box device installed around various buildings, etc. This article relates to equipment that facilitates watering of flowers planted in plant boxes. .

0002

[Conventional technology]

Plant box devices filled with flowers will be installed around various buildings. So In this case, water the above flowers from the nearest watering system installed outside the plant box. This is done by using a faucet or water tap and connecting a rubber hose, etc. to it. Also, salary The water source can be clean rainwater collected in a rainwater tank or drained from air conditioning equipment. There is drainage water, discharged cooling water, etc.

0003

[Problem that the idea aims to solve]

The conventional configuration described above has the following problems. First, install the plant box. Watering the flowers planted in the field is done by hand, and it is important to ensure that the appropriate amount of water is supplied. The task of constantly supplying water was extremely complicated. Also, if excessive water is supplied, the excess Excess water will overflow from the plant box device, and in order to drain it There was also the problem that drainage equipment would be required. Also, plant box Water taps or water taps are required around the facility, and if they are insufficient, This will make the water supply work even more difficult.

0004 The present invention was developed based on these points, and its purpose is to Suitable for plants and flowers in plant boxes without requiring complicated water supply work or a lot of equipment. To provide a plant box device capable of providing adequate water supply.

[0005]

[Means to solve the problem]

In order to achieve the above purpose, the plant box device devised in this application is designed to prevent water from collecting. A cell installed directly on top of the cell or connected via piping. A plant box containing flowers and a container filled at the bottom of the plant box. The filler material is placed continuously from the filler material and extends to the bottom of the cell. A water supply string is provided, and the water in the cell is supplied to the plant box via the water supply string and the filling material. In addition to supplying water into the plant box by capillary action, excess water in the plant box is discharged into the tank via the filling material and the water supply string. It is.

[0006]

[Effect]

First, the water in the tank is drawn into a capillary tube inside the plant box via the water supply cord and filler. Supply by Elephant. This makes it possible to feed plants and flowers without having to do any watering work. Water can. Also, remove excess water from the plant box using filler and water supply strings. It is then discharged into the tank. Therefore, it is possible to prevent problems caused by excess water.

【Example】

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIG. First of all, underground 1 has a masu and a Three rainwater basins have been installed. A rainwater drain pipe 5 is connected to the bottom of this rainwater tank 3. has been done. The upper end opening of the rainwater basin 3 is closed by a lid 4 so as to be openable and closable. A plant box 7 is installed above the rainwater tank 3. this plant The box 7 is bottomed and has an opening at its upper end. This plant box Inside the box 7, an inner sole 9 is installed. This insole 9 has a mesh shape. Yes, it has water permeability.

[0008] Above the inner sole 9, gravel (or quarried stone) 11 is filled, and The top is filled with soil 13 for planting. Flowers 15 are planted on the soil 13 above. There is. A filler 17 is filled in the plant box 7 below the inner bottom 9. has been done. This filler 17 is fibrous and has water retention properties. be. Further, a water supply cord 19 extends downward continuously from the filler 17. this The water supply string 19 is also made of the same material as the filler material 17 and is fibrous. It passes through the bottom hole 21 of the rainwater tank 7 and the hole 23 of the lid 4 to the bottom of the rainwater tank 3. It is set up.

[0009] The water supply string 19 is separated into multiple legs at the bottom of the plant box 7. ing. Rainwater 25 is collected in the rainwater tank 3, and this rainwater 25 is passed through the water supply cord. 19, through the filler 17, it is sucked into the plant box 7 by capillary action. The water is used as water for flowers 15. In addition, around the water supply string 19, , a protection pipe 27 is installed.

0010 The operation will be explained based on the above configuration. First, install a rainwater drain pipe 5 inside the rainwater tank 3. Rainwater 25 is collected through it. This rainwater 25 passes through the water supply cord 19 and the filler material 17. Water is sucked up through the water by capillary action and supplied to the flowers 15. Therefore, follow It is possible to provide necessary water to flowers 15 without having to perform special water supply work as in the past. Wear.

[0011] Next, it rained a lot and excess water accumulated inside the plant box 7. shall be. In this case, the excess water is removed via the filler 17 and the water supply string 19. It is discharged into rainwater tank 3.

0012 According to this embodiment, the following effects can be achieved. First, the plant The work of watering the flowers 15 planted in the box 7 has become easier. In other words, conventionally There is no need to perform any special water supply work as in Is the rainwater 25 in the rainwater tank 3 supplied to the plant box 7 through the material 17? It is et al. In addition, excess water in the plant box 7 also flows into the rainwater tank 3 through the same route. Since the water is discharged immediately, there are no problems caused by excess water.

[0013] In addition, since rainwater25 can be used effectively, the burden on rainwater treatment equipment is reduced. The burden can be reduced. Also, as in the past, there are water supply valves or water taps etc. around the area. There is no need to install it. In addition, there may be cases where the rainwater 25 in the rainwater tank 3 becomes insufficient. However, in this case, it is only necessary to supply water appropriately into the rainwater tank 3 via the rainwater pipe 5 etc. So the work is easy. In addition, a rainwater tank that lacks rainwater 25 from other rainwater tanks 3 3 may be supplied with rainwater 25, and there is also a method of making the rainwater basin 3 deeper in advance. Ru.

[0014] Note that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment. For example, plantbot It is not necessary to install the box 7 directly above the rainwater tank 3; They may be installed in a connected state via a wall pipe or the like. In that case, the bit A water supply string 19 will be placed inside the Neil pipe. Also, in the case of the above embodiment In this example, a rainwater tank is used as an example, but it is also possible to use a rainwater tank for other purposes and to collect various types of water. May be applied.

[0015]

[Effect of the idea]

As detailed above, according to the plant box device according to the present invention, the filling material and The rainwater in the rainwater tank is supplied to the plant box through the water supply string by capillary action. In particular, it is possible to water plants and flowers without having to perform watering work. can. In addition, excess water in the plant box is drained from rainwater through the filling material and water supply cord. Since it can be discharged into the tank, there are no problems caused by excess water.
