Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a flowerbed block in which a plurality of blocks are connected to each other to form a flowerbed.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 In the past, when forming flower beds, bricks and concrete blocks were laid with mortar, and materials such as logs, artificial wood, stones, and roof tiles were embedded and fixed. There was also an idea to fit and connect blocks to each other to form a flower bed. For example, a device for an "assembling type flower bed material" (disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 63-181245) in which a flat plate-shaped block is fitted at right angles into grooves provided at both ends thereof to form a flower bed. Or, a design of a “building block” (registered design No. 7051 08) is provided in which grooves are provided in both ends of a flat plate-shaped block and the blocks are incorporated.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 Among the conventional techniques, the former masonry work requires specialized techniques and tools, and the work of embedding materials can be done by ordinary people, but the materials are not connected, resulting in unevenness and insufficient strength as a soil stopper. Tend to be. Both the latter, Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 63-181245 and Registered Design No. 705108, are methods in which the blocks are fitted into the groove of the main body and assembled, so the blocks are firmly connected but consequential. Since the connecting part is not movable and the block row is fixed, it is not possible to expect various modeling. Specifically, the model No. 63-181245 can be modeled only on the basis of right angles and straight lines, and in the registered design No. 705108, it is defined according to the length of the block body and the folding angle of both ends. The shape and size of the flowerbeds are specified, and the purpose and function of forming flowerbeds of various shapes are not found. In addition, since both the actual development Sho 63-181245 and the registered design No. 705108 are provided with grooves on both ends of the block body in the same direction, the blocks themselves are sequentially assembled upside down. The number of sheets required for is limited to an even number, and it is easy to pull out the blocks from above, which may cause mischief. In both Jaikai Sho 63-181245 and Registered Design No. 705108, since the surface of the block is flat, the appearance of the block row lacks a sense of volume. According to claim 1 of the present invention, when forming a flower bed, the blocks can be easily connected by simply engaging the blocks without a bonding material such as mortar, and can be freely expanded and formed into various shapes such as a circle. With the aim of providing such a flowerbed block that is possible, does not need to be embedded, and even if the number of images required for drawing is an odd number, it is difficult to extract, and the block row has a beautiful volume feeling. There is. The object of claim 2 is to provide a block for flower beds, which can be mixed with the block of claim 1 to further freely define and form the shape of the flower bed.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In the flowerbed block of the present invention, the width of the notch portions (1), (1) is made to have a certain margin with respect to the thickness of the block bodies (2), (3). In the flowerbed block according to claim 1, the cutouts (1), (1) are provided on the left and right ends of the block body in the opposite directions of up and down, and at the same time, the block body (2) is curved in a curved plate shape. It is characterized by that. In the flower bed block according to claim 2, the block body (3) is bendable at a fold line (4) formed by fastening the divided body of the flower bed block according to claim 1 with a flexible membrane material. It is characterized by having done. The present invention is a flower bed block having the above-described structure.

[0005]

[Action]

 In the flower bed block according to claim 1, arbitrary blocks can be connected in a row by sequentially engaging the notches (1) and (1) with each other. This row is not only straight, but also curved because the connector can be bent in and out within the play of the occlusion. By combining the first and last blocks of this row, it is possible to form a defined flower bed such as a circle. When the flower bed block of claim 2 is partially used in the row of flower bed blocks of claim 1, the shape of the flower bed can be further freely formed by utilizing the fact that the row can be bent sharply at that portion. be able to. The surface of the block row has a pattern in which divided cylinders are arranged.

[0006]

【Example】

 An embodiment of a flowerbed block of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In FIG. 1, the flower bed block of claim 1 is shown. FIG. 2 shows a state in which the flower bed block according to claim 1 is occluded and connected to the notches (1) and (1) of each other. This flowerbed block has a wide curved body of the block bodies (2) and (3), so that the width of the cutouts (1) and (1) is wide enough to bring play to the joint. You don't have to. This play makes the connecting body movable, and at the same time, by making the block main bodies (2) and (3) into proper arc shapes, an appropriate direction from the occlusion to the next occlusion is generated, and the combined effect is obtained. Blocks can be arranged in a row of straight lines and curved lines. As shown in FIG. 3, it is possible to combine the first and last of the block rows of claim 1 that are connected in series to each other to form a circular flower bed, and as shown in FIG. It is possible to make a layout with the peripheral surface as the front side, and as shown in Fig. 5, it is possible to have a straight line, a circle, and a curved line part of a wave, and it is possible to increase the number of connections as much as possible. The size of the flower bed can be expanded freely. 1, 2 and 6, the notch portions (1) and (1) are provided on the lower left and upper right of the block bodies (2) and (3), but they may be provided on the upper left and lower right. Although it is the same as the block for flower beds in paragraphs 1 and 2, it is essential to combine the same types, and if they are mixed, they cannot be arranged in a natural row. In this way, the blocks are connected in the same direction by providing the left and right cutouts (1), (1) in the opposite directions above and below each other. Regardless of the odd number, it is difficult to pull it out when it is set up. 6 shows the flower bed block of claim 2 In FIG. 7, the flower bed block of claim 2 is used in a key part of the row of the flower bed block of claim 1, and the row is bent and moved outside the flower bed. An example of a heart-shaped flower bed shows that it is possible to squeeze and that the rows can be narrowed by tying and engaging the flower bed blocks of claim 1 together. FIG. 8 shows an example of an occlusion in which the end portion of the flower bed block of claim 2 goes out of the block of claim 1 to be connected. As in the example of Fig.8, by engaging the bite in the opposite direction to that of Fig.7, it is possible to bend and move the row inside the flowerbed (5), which is the opposite of Fig.7. You can also form square or triangular flower beds by making a sharp corner. The shape of the flower bed becomes more diverse when the usage of the block for the flower bed of claim 2 as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8 and the block row can be linear or curved. The rows can be bent freely if only the flower bed blocks are connected in series. However, depending on the shape, the shape of the flower beds that the rows move and define when the soil is put is distinct. Since it disappears, it can be used at important points as shown in Figs. 7 and 8 to take advantage of its bendable nature. In the flower bed block of claim 2 shown in FIG. 6, the folding line (4) is provided on the outer peripheral wall side, but it is not necessary to provide the folding line on the inner peripheral wall side or to bend it inward or outward by a hinge or the like as shown in FIGS. As shown in the figure, it is possible to deal with each site angularly, and if the folding line (4) is on the outer peripheral wall side, there is also the effect that the small edge of the block body that is divided and fastened cannot be seen. The circular shape as shown in Figs. 3 and 4 is the most stable shape for earth retaining, but even in the case of flower beds of other shapes, if you fix the shape by clamping the inside while holding the outside. The block row is stable. As shown in Fig. 9, when the keystone-like retaining material (6) is driven into the garden soil (7) at the key points of the row and then the garden soil (8) is inserted, the block row can be maintained clearly. It is convenient and effective. The retaining material may be developed as an auxiliary material for the flowerbed block, but it is also possible to use a commercially available material suitable for the purpose. Here, if the material is required to have such a possibility, it has a similar shape and function to claim 1 and 2 by bending the whole body and a part at the time of installation while being flat plate at the time of packing and transportation. It is also possible to envisage a multi-purpose construction block that can be used.

[0007]

[Effect of device]

 The flowerbed block of the present invention does not require a bonding material such as mortar, and anyone can easily create a variety of flowerbeds including circular shapes, which are often requested, simply by interlocking the blocks and blocks one after another. Can be formed. Since the number of blocks to be connected can be increased as much as possible, the size of the flower bed can be expanded freely, it is fun to devise various shapes, and it is possible to make the shape according to the convenience of the site. In addition, since the blocks are leaned against each other and attracted to each other by creating a state of stability, there is no need to embed them, and they can be installed directly on the ground, concrete, or floor to form flower beds. For example, not only in the garden, but also on the terrace or indoors, by gathering pots and planters and surrounding them, it is possible to create a flowerbed-like area. In addition, the pattern in which the divided cylinders on the surface of the block array are arranged side by side makes it possible to maintain the natural rhythmic feeling of the continuous arc even if the array is straight or curved, or is suddenly bent. It has a positive effect and is beautifully voluminous. Since the flowerbed block of the present invention does not need to be thick, it can be manufactured to be thin and lightweight and easy to transport and install. Since the flowerbed block of the present invention does not use a binder, it is easy to remove and can be reused.
