Artificial landscaping system

The present invention relates to an artificial landscaping system, and more particularly, in the case of forming artificial landscaping using rocks or trees outdoors, for example, an apartment complex, the entire system is deformed or destroyed by heavy loads due to rocks or trees. It relates to an artificial landscaping system that can prevent the occurrence of.

Generally, due to the development and urbanization of the industrial society, the rapid concentration of the population into the city is happening. Due to the population concentration in such a city, a living space has been developed in which a large number of people can live together in a limited space. Specifically, apartment houses such as residential buildings, officetels, apartments, villas, and multi-family homes began to enter the city center, and the center of the city was covered by skyscrapers.

However, these apartments and high-rise buildings are designed to concentrate large numbers of people in a limited space, and most of them do not consider the living environment and the surrounding environment. Therefore, people living in multi-family homes and skyscrapers have the desire to make the surrounding environment environmentally friendly, although the convenience of urban life is satisfied.

In response to these demands, efforts to improve the residential environment have been made by installing artificial landscaping or fountains between buildings and extra spaces in the process of constructing multi-family houses or high-rise buildings. Furthermore, artificial landscaping systems, such as artificial landscaping and fountains, are becoming increasingly large.

According to this conventional technique, as the artificial landscaping system is enlarged, its area is widened, and its height has also increased from several meters to several tens of meters. Filling the interior with soil or concrete to build a large artificial landscaping system not only increases the construction period but also increases the construction cost. In addition, there is a fear that deformation or partial destruction of the entire artificial landscaping system may occur due to an increase in load of rocks or trees used to form artificial landscaping.

The problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide an artificial landscaping system that can reduce the construction period and construction cost and at the same time prevent deformation or destruction of the entire system.

Specific details of other embodiments are included in the detailed description and the drawings.

As described above, according to the artificial landscaping system according to the present invention, the natural environment outside the city center is reproduced as it is or reduced in the city center, which can greatly help the emotional development of urban people. In addition, by filling the interior of the artificial landscaping system with block assemblies instead of soil or concrete, the construction period and construction costs can be significantly reduced.

Furthermore, by fixing the block units constituting the block assembly with a fixed assembly consisting of a fixed plate and a connecting member, even if a load such as a rock or a tree placed on the upper part is unevenly distributed, the load is evenly distributed throughout the system to deform or collapse the system. It can prevent it from happening drastically. Therefore, even if the height of the artificial landscaping system becomes larger than tens of meters, there is no fear of collapse, and people can walk on it with confidence.

In addition, by installing a drainage plate on the bottom surface of the tree groove for planting trees and installing a sieve with a drainage passage on one side, it is possible to effectively maintain the humidity of the cultured soil in which the tree grows and at the same time prevent the tree roots from rotting.

Advantages and features of the present invention and methods for achieving them will be apparent with reference to the embodiments described below in detail with the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the embodiments disclosed below, but will be implemented in various forms, and only the present embodiments are intended to complete the disclosure of the present invention, and the general knowledge in the art to which the present invention pertains. It is provided to fully convey the scope of the invention to those skilled in the art, and the present invention is defined only by the scope of the claims. Like reference numerals refer to like elements throughout.

Hereinafter, the artificial landscaping system according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 1 to 5. 1 is a cross-sectional view of an artificial landscaping system according to an embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 1, an artificial landscaping system 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a base layer 5 formed on the ground, a block assembly 10 stacked on the base layer 5, and , A vegetation mat 20 covering the upper portion of the block assembly 10, and a soil layer 30 disposed on the vegetation mat 20.

Here, the base layer 5 is installed under the artificial landscaping system 1 to serve as a foundation. Sidewalls 6 may be formed along the edge of the base layer 5, which may serve to partition the artificial landscaping system 1 and its periphery. The base layer 5 may be made of a concrete layer such as slabs of a building or may be made integral with the side wall 6. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the base layer 5 may be made of a synthetic resin panel or the like, and the base layer 5 may be formed separately from the side wall 6. Although not shown, drains (not shown) for drainage may be formed in the side wall 6 or the base layer 5.

The block assembly 10 is installed above the base layer 5 and serves to form the overall contour of the artificial landscaping system 1. Conventionally, the interior was filled with soil or concrete to form an artificial landscaping system. In this case, the construction cost is increased due to the material cost and transportation cost of the internal filling material, and the construction period is long. In the case of the artificial landscaping system 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention, by using the block assembly 10 made of a light and easy-to-handle material, the artificial landscaping system 1 is contoured to significantly reduce construction costs or construction periods. Can be. The block assembly 10 is formed by stacking a plurality of block units 12, and each block unit 12 includes a cube-shaped block or a specific block made of EPS (Expandable PolyStyrene), synthetic resin, foam, or the like. Structures can be used.

The block assembly 10 is a stack of one or more block units 12 to have a mountain-shaped contour, the block assembly 10 is a plurality of block units 12 for the convenience of transportation and installation of the block unit 12 It is preferable that it consists of). The plurality of block units 12 may be attached and fixed to each other using an adhesive or the like. The size of the block unit 12 may be the same or may be configured differently. The block unit 12 disposed at the outer side of the block assembly 10 may be carved along the slope using a cutter such as an electric heating wire or a cutting heater to form a mountain-shaped outline as a whole.

When the block assembly 10 is composed of a plurality of block units 12, there is a fear that the block assembly 10 is partially destroyed by a load such as a rock 40 or a tree 50 installed thereon. Specifically, since the rock 40 or the tree 50 is partially installed on the block assembly 10, the load may be partially biased. Therefore, when load is concentrated in some block units 12, even if the block unit 12 and the neighboring block unit 12 are fixed to each other by an adhesive, cracks may occur between them. In order to solve this problem, the present invention allows the plurality of block units 12 to be closely coupled to each other by using a fixed assembly, thereby making it possible to uniformly distribute a load that may be partially biased to the plurality of block units 12. For example, the plurality of block units 12 arranged in a horizontal direction may be firmly fixed to each other by the horizontal fixing assembly 113 including the fixing plate 110 and the connecting member 112.

Hereinafter, the horizontal fixing assembly 113 will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3. 2 is a perspective view illustrating the horizontal fixing assembly of FIG. 1, and FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view of the horizontal fixing assembly of FIG. 2.

1 to 3, a plurality of block units 12 arranged in a row are provided with through holes 14 therethrough. A pair of fixing plates 110 are disposed at both ends of the plurality of block units 12. The fixing plate 110 may be made of a high-strength material of a flat plate shape, for example, an iron plate. The connecting member 112 may be firmly fixed to the plurality of block units 12 disposed between the two fixing plates 110 by coupling the two fixing plates 110 via the through holes 14. The connecting member 112 may be made of a metal wire having a metal wire or a bolt formed at both ends thereof. Passing the connecting member 112 through the connecting hole 114 formed in the fixing plate 110 and bending the outer side of the fixing plate 110 and then bundling the bent portion using the fixing member 116 to the connecting member 112 A knot is formed so that the connection member 112 and the fixing plate 110 are firmly coupled. However, the method of coupling the connecting member 112 to the fixed plate 110 is not limited thereto, and various methods known to those skilled in the art may be applied. In addition, various methods may be applied to form the through hole 14 in the block unit 12. For example, an electric heating wire or a cutting heater is used to make a passage from the outside of the block unit 12 to the through hole 14, and then the connecting member 112 is disposed in the through hole 14, followed by EPS, synthetic resin or foaming. The through hole 14 may be completed by filling the passage with a foam or the like.

Such a horizontal fixing assembly 113 may be installed for each layer of the block unit 12. In particular, when n block units 12 (where n is an integer) are arranged in a line as shown in FIG. 1, up to (n-2) consecutive blocks using the horizontal fixing assembly 113 It is preferable to fix the unit 12. This is to leave the ones located at both ends of the plurality of block units 12 arranged in a row to sculpt the contour of the mountain.

In this embodiment, the case in which the connecting member 112 penetrates the block unit 12 is described as an example, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and the block unit 12 may be formed without a separate through hole 14. The horizontal fixing assembly 113 may be used to fix the plurality of block units 12. For example, in the case of the block units 12 arranged in two rows, the same fixing effect can be obtained by arranging the connecting member 112 at the boundary of each row and the fixing plate 110 at both ends of the boundary.

Referring back to FIG. 1, the rock groove 42 and the tree groove 52 are formed on the block assembly 10. The rock grooves 42 are provided with rocks 40 of various shapes. The rock 40 can be firmly fixed by applying the adhesive member 44 on the rock groove 42 and placing the rock 40 on the adhesive member 44. For example, the adhesive member 44 may be made by curing the urethane foam. The root portion of the tree 50 is located in the tree groove 52. If the block unit 12 is made of a waterproof material and water is accumulated in the tree groove 52, the root of the tree 50 is rotten, so the drainage treatment of the tree groove 52 is important.

Hereinafter, the drainage structure of the tree groove 52 will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 1 and 4. 4 is an enlarged cross-sectional view of the tree groove of FIG. 1.

A drain plate 55 is disposed on the bottom surface of the tree groove 52. The drainage plate 55 is formed with a plurality of micropores, so that soil does not pass, but water 57 has a structure that passes through. The drain plate 55 may have an uneven shape to smoothly drain the water 57 introduced into the groove 52 for the tree. In order to effectively prevent foreign matter from being transferred to the drain plate 55, a nonwoven fabric 56 may be selectively installed on the drain plate 55. After arranging the root of the tree 50 on the nonwoven fabric 56, the culture soil 54 is filled. On one side of the tree groove 52, the drainage path 58 is formed at a position higher than the bottom surface. In order to prevent the culture soil 54 from being lost through the drainage path 58, a strainer 53 is disposed in front of the drainage path 58. The sieve 53 extends along the side from the bottom surface of the tree groove 52. According to the drainage structure of the tree groove 52 as described above, the water 57 flowing into the tree groove 52 is partially stored in the lower portion of the drain plate 55 and the water level of the stored water 57 is greater than that of the drain plate 55. Increasingly, the oversupply water 57 may be smoothly drained through the drainage path 58. Some of the water 57 stored under the drain plate 55 may help the growth of the tree 50 by maintaining an appropriate humidity in the culture soil 54.

In this embodiment, the case where the tree 50 is directly planted in the tree groove 52 has been described as an example, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and the tree powder in which the tree 50 is planted is inserted into the tree groove 52. Even if placed, the same effect can be obtained.
