Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a planter supporting shelf for supporting a planter (plant cultivation container) in a space in a house.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, house cultivation for cultivating horticultural plants (vegetables) such as vegetables throughout the year in a house maintained at a predetermined weather condition without being influenced by outside air conditions has been actively performed.

According to this house cultivation, pests, bacteria and the like existing outside are prevented from entering the space inside the house by the peripheral wall of the house, and without using pesticides or the like which adversely affect the human body,
Plants can be successfully grown in the space inside the house by the so-called pesticide-free cultivation method. This pesticide-free cultivation method is particularly effective in cultivating leafy vegetables and the like that are difficult to wash.

In this greenhouse cultivation, soil is generally filled in a planter integrally formed of a synthetic resin, and the plant is cultivated in the soil. The reason is,
To enable the plants being cultivated in the house to be brought in and out of the house together with the planter according to the growth stage of the plant, and to be able to exchange the plants being cultivated in the house with other plants in the house. Is. In this way, various plants suitable for each season such as spring, summer, autumn, and winter can be continuously cultivated in the same house, and the house can be effectively used throughout the year without waste. be able to.

[0005] Planters during cultivation of plants are generally placed side by side on the bottom of a house, or placed on cultivation shelves installed in the house in a plurality of rows up and down.

[0006]

However, when the planters are arranged side by side on the bottom of the house as described above, the upper space in the house becomes wide, and the upper space in the house becomes effective. Not available. Therefore, it was not possible to effectively utilize the space inside the house and place many planters side by side in the space inside the house.

[0007] Further, when the planters are arranged on the cultivation shelves installed in the house in a plurality of stages vertically, the upper cultivation shelves block much of the sunlight radiated into the space inside the house, and the lower cultivation shelves block the sunlight. The plants growing in the planters placed on the cultivation shelves could not be sufficiently exposed to sunlight. At the same time, the cultivation shelves have a large-scale structure using a large number of heavy plate materials, steel frames, aluminum aggregates, and the like, and assembling costs of the cultivation shelves and installation costs thereof have increased.

[0008] Therefore, the present inventor, after earnest research, laid a horizontal bar and a support bar side by side in the space inside the house, and hooked the side part of the planter on the horizontal bar, and on the support bar. By placing the bottom of the planter on, it was thought that the planter could be stably supported so as not to move freely in various places in the house through the horizontal bar and the supporting bar. Along with that
The present inventors have conceived that it is possible to prevent a large number of planters from occupying the space inside the house by using the horizontal bar and the support bars for supporting the planter, and to be able to support a large number of planters in the space inside the house. Furthermore, the horizontal bar for supporting the planter and the supporting bar prevent most of the sunlight radiated from the outside of the house to various places in the house,
It has been conceived that the plant under cultivation can be sufficiently irradiated with sunlight in planters supported in various places in the house space. Then, a lightweight and easy-to-manufacture planter support shelf was developed, which was provided with a horizontal bar and a support bar for arranging and supporting the planters in various places in the house.

In other words, the present invention provides a lightweight and light-weight for supporting a planter side by side in a space in a house, comprising a horizontal bar for hanging the side of the planter and a support bar for placing the bottom of the planter. The purpose is to provide a planter support shelf that is easy to manufacture.

[0010]

In order to achieve the above object, a planter supporting shelf according to the present invention is an underframe formed by combining a plurality of frame bars, and has a triangular prism laid horizontally. A frame, a horizontal bar and a support bar which are arranged side by side at a predetermined interval on the side surface of the frame, and a horizontal bar for hooking a hook arm extending to a side portion of the planter; and And a support rod on which the bottom of the planter is placed, wherein a gutter material having an open upper end is used for the support rod.

In the planter support shelf of the present invention, the horizontal bar and the support bar may both be laterally inclined on either side of the underframe so as to be tilted to the left or right, or the horizontal bar and the support bar may be provided. Both may be horizontally laid on the side of the underframe.

Further, in the planter supporting shelf of the present invention, it is preferable that a round pipe is used for the horizontal bar and a gutter member having a substantially C-shaped cross section is used for the supporting bar. I have.

[0013]

In the planter supporting shelf according to the present invention, the hook arm extended to the side of the planter is hooked on the horizontal bar laid on the side of the underframe, and the bottom of the planter is fixed to the side of the underframe. The planter can be stably supported on the horizontally mounted support bar so that the planter does not move on the side surface of the underframe.

Further, a horizontal bar and a support bar for supporting the planter are arranged side by side on the upper side surface, the halfway side surface or the lower side surface of the underframe, so that the base is used by using the horizontal bar and the support bar. The planter can be freely supported at any part of the upper part, the middle part or the lower part of the space in the house where the frame is installed.

Further, in the planter supporting shelf of the present invention, the underframe is formed by combining a plurality of bar-shaped frame bars, and the bar-shaped horizontal bar and the support bar are also arranged on the side surface of the underframe. Because of the horizontal structure, the underframe, the horizontal bar and the support bar do not occupy much of the space inside the house. It is possible to prevent much of the sunlight irradiated to various parts of the space from being blocked.

Further, without using a plate-shaped member which is heavy,
Since it has a lightweight structure in which a light rod-shaped frame bar, a horizontal bar, and a support bar are combined, the assembly cost and installation cost can be significantly reduced.

Further, since the horizontal bar and the support bar for supporting the planter are arranged side by side on a side of the underframe having a triangular prism lying sideways and facing obliquely upward, the horizontal bar and the support bar are placed on the upper side of the underframe. The planters supported by the horizontal bar and the support bar are not overlapped vertically with the planter supported by the horizontal bar and the support bar that are mounted on the side of the underframe. Can be shifted back and forth to support the upper side surface and the lower side surface of the underframe via the horizontal bar and the support bar, respectively. And most of the sunlight radiated from the outside of the house to the space inside the house is not blocked by the planter supported on the upper side of the underframe, and is sufficient for the plants being cultivated in the planter supported on the underside of the underframe. You can keep on hitting.

Further, since a gutter material having an open upper end is used for the support rod, a drain hole opened at the bottom of the planter is positioned immediately above the upper end opening of the support rod to support the planter. By placing it on the rod, water remaining in the planter discharged to the outside of the planter through the drain hole at the bottom of the planter enters the inside of the support rod made of gutter material through the opening at the upper end of the support rod. Can be done. Then, the water or the like can be discharged from the end of the support rod to the outside of the support rod through the inside of the support rod.

In addition, in the case of a planter supporting shelf in which both the horizontal bar and the supporting bar are laid on the side surface of the underframe so as to be inclined leftward or rightward, water or the like that has entered the inside of the supporting bar is prevented. ,
Through the inside of the support rod, the lower end of the support rod can be smoothly discharged to the outside of the support rod.
