Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (Field of industrial application) The present invention relates to a seedling box with a greenhouse structure in which a windshield is attached to a seedling box formed using a heat insulating material, and is particularly suitable for use in agriculture, home gardens, and plant ornamentation. This relates to a seedling nursery box that can be used for a wide range of purposes.

(Prior Art) Conventionally, when raising one or several plants for agriculture, home gardening, ornamental use, etc., thin polyethylene, pottery, or plastic flowerpots or planters have been used.

In addition, a seedling box with a greenhouse structure in which a transparent sheet is removably attached in a dome shape above a heat-retaining plastic seedling box is disclosed in Utility Model Publication No. 50-4595, Utility Model Application Publication No. 50-29849, and Utility Model Publication No. 50-29849. It is disclosed in Publication No. 57-189348.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) However, because these conventional flower pots and planters do not have a special insulation effect, there is a problem in that in summer, the temperature rises to the inside of the container, causing root rot.

In addition, for plants that are sensitive to frost and low temperatures, the container does not have a heat-insulating effect, so they must be brought indoors at night or grown in a greenhouse, which poses the problem of requiring too much time and money. .

Another problem is that it is difficult to grow seedlings on ships at sea because the strong rain and wind can damage plants.

In addition, the 50-4595 Utility Model has a dome-shaped sheet removably attached to a heat-retaining plastic seedling box.
Publication No. 50-29849, Utility Model Application No. 57-
Although the above-mentioned problem is partially solved in the seedling raising box of Publication No. 189348, the area around the flower pot setting hole cannot be said to have sufficient insulation properties, so the solution is insufficient. When seedlings planted in a set hole or planting hole are transferred individually or when you want to separate them, you must pull out the flower pot and transfer them, or when you have to pull out the seedlings from the soil in the planting hole and transfer them and separate the seedlings. It had become a time-consuming process.

(Means for Solving the Problems) The present invention was made to solve the problems of the conventional methods, and it is possible to raise seedlings by placing plants directly in a nursery box, or by placing a flower pot without heat insulation in the nursery box. By doing this, you can prevent root rot and frost damage of the seedlings, adjust the ambient temperature and humidity, prevent damage from strong winds such as those at sea, and easily separate each seedling while keeping it warm. We provide a seedling raising box that can be separated into two parts.

The gist of this is that the seedling box is made of a foam material with good heat retention, and is made of a foam material with good heat retention, with multiple flower pot setting holes or seedling planting holes on the top surface, and each flower pot setting hole and seedling hole separated by a deep groove. The molded seedling box has multiple grooves or holes for installing the windshield on the upper edge, and the pitches of the grooves or holes for installing the windshield on the lower edge of the windshield, which is open at the bottom and covered with a transparent sheet over the entire surface. This greenhouse structure seedling raising box using a heat retainer is characterized in that the windshield is attached to the seedling raising box by protruding legs at the same pitch and inserting the legs of the windshield into grooves or holes for installing the windshield.

(Function) The present invention uses a greenhouse structure in which a windshield is attached to a seedling raising box using heat insulating material.

The windshield is open at the bottom and covered entirely with a transparent sheet, and has legs protruding from the lower edge, which are inserted into grooves or holes provided at the upper edge of the seedling box and fixed.

Place the seedlings in the nursery box directly or in flower pots made of thin polyethylene or the like. The inside of the seedling box is then adjusted by opening and closing the windshield, taking into account daytime temperature, humidity, wind, etc. Since the seedling nursery box is made of heat insulating material, it can insulate the outside temperature in the summer to prevent root rot, and in the winter it can keep warm and protect the seedlings from frost damage.

In addition, the seedling raising box of the present invention has the flower pot setting hole and the seedling planting hole formed in the integral molding of a heat-retaining foam material, so that each seedling can be kept well warm.

Furthermore, when separating each seedling/flower pot or into a plurality of blocks, the blocks can be easily separated by cutting from the cut grooves and separating them.

(Example) Examples of the present invention will be described below based on the drawings.

The seedling box 1 of this embodiment has a structure in which an inner box 5, which has a number of flower pot setting holes 4 into which thin polyethylene flower pots 3 are inserted and fixed, is removably fitted into an outer box 2 whose top surface is open, and both boxes are heat-insulated. It is made using foam material.

Further, the windshield 6 has legs 9 by supporting transparent vinyl sheets 7 with reinforcing materials 8 at appropriate intervals, and by making the tips of the reinforcing materials 8 protrude.

In the figure, 10 is a drainage hole, 11 is a notch dividing each flower pot setting hole 4, and 12 is a water level confirmation hole.

Further, 13 is an opening on the top surface of the outer box 2, 14 is a drainage channel, 15 is a drain port that is blind at the initial stage and communicates with the drainage channel 14, 16 is a hermetic stopper, and 17 is an outer box opening. 2 and a windshield mounting groove drilled in the fitting portion of the inner box 5, and 18 are seedlings.

The inner box 5 can be separated into blocks each having one flower pot setting hole 4 by cutting the notches 11 with a knife or the like.

Although the embodiment of the present invention has been described above, the specific configuration of the present invention is not limited to this embodiment.

For example, in this embodiment, the inner box 5 is fitted into the outer box 2 to attach the windshield, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the outer box 2 shape can be used alone. FIG. 3 shows an example in which a windshield 6 is attached to a seedling growing box 19 whose upper surface is completely open. In this case, seedlings may be placed directly in the pot, or ornamental plants planted in pots made of pottery or the like may be protected by placing the pots together in the winter.

Moreover, the shape of the inner box 5 can also be used alone. FIG. 4 shows an example in which a windshield 6 is attached to a seedling raising box 20 provided with a large number of flower pot setting holes 4. In this case, after use at room temperature, they can be separated one by one from the notch 11 and used as they are as a flower pot. In addition, in such a case,
The flower pot 3 is not necessarily required and may be directly planted into the flower pot setting hole 4.

Also, a lid frame 21 that fits on the upper part of the outer box 2 and the inner box 5
It is also possible to separately provide a windshield 6 and attach the windshield 6 to it (FIG. 5).

(Effects of the invention) As described above, according to the invention, a greenhouse structure is created by attaching a windshield to a seedling nursery box using heat insulating material, so the heat insulating effect of the heat insulating material prevents root rot in the summer and frost damage in the winter. In addition, the room temperature and humidity can be adjusted to create optimal conditions for growing seedlings. In addition, since damage caused by wind can be prevented, it is possible to grow seedlings on board the ship, making it possible to supply fresh vegetables and the like.

In addition, the heat retention of each seedling and flower pot is also good because the seedling raising box is made of foam material. Furthermore, when it is desired to separate each seedling/flower pot or into a plurality of blocks, the seedlings can be easily separated from the deep grooves of the seedling raising box, so they can be separated while maintaining good heat retention, making it easy to use.

In addition, since it is lightweight and easy to handle, it can fully demonstrate its functions regardless of the user or location.
