In other words, the first bent portion 113 and the third bent portion 123 are formed such that the width of the frame 100 is increased toward the first space side, 2 < / RTI > space.

The second bent portion 114 and the fourth bent portion 124 are formed such that the width of the frame 100 is wider toward the second space side, 1 < / RTI > space.

Here, the first bend section 113, the second bend section 114, the third bend section 123 and the fourth bend section 124 may protrude to one side or the other side of the road.

In addition, in one embodiment, the frame 100 may include a first extension portion 116 that extends from the upper end of the first panel 112 so as to extend from the upper end of the first panel 112. The load applied to the cover portion 200 May be dispersed through the first extension part (116).

That is, the first extension part 116 can be bent substantially vertically from the first panel 112 to widen the contact area with the lid part 200 provided on the upper side of the frame 100, And may be positioned so as to overlap with the lid 200.

In addition, in one embodiment, the ecological passage 10 is positioned between the frame 100 and the lid unit 200, and the load applied to the lid unit 200 causes the frame 100, And a noise preventing unit 300 for preventing noise that may be generated when the unit 200 is brought into contact.

Specifically, the noise prevention part 300 may be located between the first extension part 116 and the cover part 200 mounted on the first extension part 116, and may include rubber, cork, etc. So that it is possible to prevent a noise that may occur between the first extension portion 116 and the cover portion 200. [ A known technique for making the material of the noise prevention part 300 function as a buffering function may be used.

The frame 100 may include a second extension portion 118 extending from the upper end of at least one of the first bend portion 113 and the second bend portion 114 so as to be bent, The second extension portion 118 may be in coplanar contact with the first extension portion 116.

That is, the second extension part 118 may block the path of the ecological animal protruding to one side or the other side of the road but capable of moving on the road without passing through the frame 100.
The second extension portion 118 is connected to the outer side of the movement space from the first extension portion 116 and is in contact with the lid portion 200 so as to be in contact with the first extension portion 116, The lid 200 can be supported. That is, the second extension portion 118 is connected to the outer side of the movement space from the first extension portion 116, and contacts the lid portion 200, so that the second extension portion 118 contacts with the first extension portion 116, So that the ecological animal passing through the moving space can be prevented from entering the road.

Here, the stepped portion between the frame 100 and the road surface can be offset by the lid 200 mounted on the frame 100.

In addition, the lid 200 may have a plurality of holes formed therein so that light may be irradiated or natural objects such as rainwater and snow may flow into the frame 100, and the lid 200 may be detachably attached to the frame 100.

That is, it is mounted on the upper side of the frame 100, and can be detached and attached from the frame 100, so that the user can freely move in and out of the inner space of the frame 100.

The lid 200 may be prevented from being separated from the upper side of the frame 100 due to its own weight or the lid 200 may be coupled to the frame 100 and the lid 200, And can be mounted to the frame 100 by a fastening portion that prevents the frame 100 from being detached from the frame 100. At this time, the user can lift the lid unit 200 or remove the fastening unit, lift the lid unit 200, and remove the lid unit 200 from the frame 100.

Also, at least one of the frame 100 and the lid 200 may be FRP (glass fiber reinforced plastic).

The FRP (glass fiber reinforced plastic) is a glass fiber reinforced plastic in which glass fibers are intensively and continuously arranged and thoroughly mixed and coalesced with a resin (polyester resin or vinyl ester resin).

Referring to Table 1, the thermal conductivity of the FRP is much smaller than that of aluminum, iron and stainless steel. Such a small thermal conductivity reduces the temperature change in the eco-passage 10 and functions as a sanctuary or a moving passage of an ecological animal And may be adapted to perform.

[Table 1]

In addition, since the sound insulation effect of the FRP is superior to other materials, it is possible to reduce noise caused by vehicles or pedestrians passing by the eco-animals or the like moving on the eco route 10.

This means that the sound is reflected and absorbed to prevent the incident sound from penetrating through the wall, as opposed to absorbing the sound.

As an index related to the sound insulation, there is a coincidence effect. The coincidence effect is a phenomenon that most of the negative energy passes when the incident sound vibrates like a wall. At this time, the sound insulation performance may be remarkably deteriorated.

On the other hand, when the incident angle of the sound approaches 90 degrees, the resonance frequency that produces the coincidence effect becomes the lowest, which is called the critical frequency.

The relationship between wall thickness and critical frequency for each material is expressed by the following equation.

Meanwhile, the frame 100 is disposed in a moving space such as an ecological animal or the like formed on the inner side and includes a first passage portion S1 in which at least one of a natural stone, a deciduous leaf, and a vegetative mat is located, and a second passage portion S1 in parallel with the first passage portion S1 And a partition 130 for partitioning the first passage portion S1 and the second passage portion S2 can be formed in the second passage portion S2.

The moving space may be an open space that is opened to the first space side and the second space side and is formed to be able to move between the first space and the second space.

The first passage portion S1 and the second passage portion S2 may be a space that divides the moving space by about half, but the first passage portion S1 is larger than the second passage portion S2 Or it may be formed small.

In addition, the first passage portion S1 may be a natural stone, a deciduous leaf, a vegetation mat, various structures made of FRP, and the like. The arrangement of the various natural objects or structures may be arranged similar to the natural ecological environment, It is possible to prevent a sense of rejection from occurring in an ecological animal or the like moving through the one passage portion S1. In addition, the various natural objects, structures, etc. may be fixed to the first passage portion S1 by a fixing member or the like.

Unlike the first passage portion S1, the second passage portion S2 may not include any natural object or structure, and the first passage portion S1 and the second passage portion S1 may be separated from each other by the partition 130, .

The partition 130 may include a plurality of columnar portions 132 spaced apart from each other by a predetermined distance and a connecting portion 134 connecting the plurality of columnar portions 132. The partition 130 May be equal to or less than the height of the frame 100. [ When the height of the partition 130 is equal to the height of the frame 100, the lid 200 is brought into contact with one surface of the lid 200 located on the upper side of the frame 100, Can support.

The connection portion 134 may be connected to the lower side of the plurality of column portions 132 so that the plurality of column portions 132 may be fixed without being detached from a predetermined position.

For example, the connection portion 134 may have a groove into which the pillars can be inserted, so that the pillars are inserted into the respective grooves, thereby being fixed to the connection portion. However, the connecting portions 134 and the respective posts may be joined by welding or bonding.

Here, the connection part 134 may be buried in the lower side of the ground on which the partition 130 is installed, so that the plurality of pillars 132 are stably raised without being exposed to the outside .

The projections 133 may be formed on the upper side of the plurality of pillars 132 to correspond to the holes formed in the lid 200. The projections 133 may be formed on the lid 200 So that the load of the lid unit 200 can be transmitted to the ground as well as being connected to the lid unit 200 more stably.

The shape of the protrusion 133 can be changed in accordance with the shape of the hole formed in the lid 200.

Each of the pillars 132 may have a circular or polygonal cross-section, and may be spaced apart by a predetermined distance. The spacing between the pillars 132 is for providing a passage through which the eco-animal moving through the second passage S2 can move to the first passage S1.

For example, a frog moving through the second passage S2 moves to the first passage S1 in which a feature (various natural objects and structures) is disposed by the appearance of a predator (a snake or the like) It is possible to move from the second passage portion S2 to the first passage portion S1 by using the interval between the pillars 132.
