Description

The utility model relates to agriculture, namely, devices for growing plants and landscaping vertical surfaces [A01G 9/02].

Known UNIVERSAL BEDROOM VERTICAL BED [RF patent No. 2436288], containing shelves made in the form of cassettes arranged parallel to one another, at least three mounting brackets are rigidly mounted symmetrically relative to each other, each of which is made in the form of a quadrangular protrusion with a through hole that is connected to the cassette riser, which is a tetrahedral plate, with the ability to conveniently establish the cassette riser.

The disadvantage of the analogue is the low reliability due to the complex design.

The prior art HYDROPONIC PLANT FOR GROWING PLANTS [RF patent No. 2224420], containing vegetation trays, pallets, installed in tiers with a given step on an inclined mounted rigid frame by means of brackets, a nutrient solution supply system in the form of a storage tank with flow taps and measuring tanks with siphon drains located above the upper tier of the vegetation trays-pallets o in, a drain tank with a level sensor, in the form located under the vegetation trays-pallets of the lower tier, with knitted by a pressure pipe with a storage tank, while the vegetation trays, pallets are equipped with individual siphon drains and landing covers rigidly fixed above them with foam plugs.

The disadvantage of the analogue is low reliability, limited scope, associated with high mass-dimensional characteristics.

Known PHYTOMODULE FOR GROWING PLANTS AND GREENING OF VERTICAL SURFACES [patent RU 148569 U, publ .: 10.12.2014], made in the form of a vertical panel made of plastic and attached to the wall of a room or building, containing a system for supplying nutrient solution or water, characterized in that the panel is made in the form of at least two non-leaking tray-pallets placed one below the other and having a transverse angle of inclination, and in each tray, except for the bottom, a drainage hole or cutout in the wall of the lot a.

The disadvantages are the spillage of the soil (filler) due to the transverse inclination of the pallet tray, which makes it impossible to use the phytomodule indoors, since it leads to excessive soil contamination of the floor surface, and the inability to directly (top) water the plants when growing in the ground, since liquid drains from the soil surface due to the transverse inclination of the tray-pallet, thereby not ensuring proper watering and also polluting the surface of the floor. The disadvantages include a small capacity of the soil in the tray tray, which affects the growth of plants.

The prototype of the claimed utility model is the patent RU 2553649, published: 06/20/2015, in which a device for vertical or inclined placement of crops outside of plant soil is disclosed, has at least one module defining an internal volume for storing nutrient and plants and limited by the front a wall and a rear wall rigidly connected to the front wall. At least the front wall has an opening for the passage of plants and at least one wall, front or rear, has a fixation space for attaching the module to the holder. At the same time, at least one wall, front or rear, has overlapping ribs, allowing when the device is installed on a vegetable roof or wall and has at least two adjacent modules, the modules overlap each other at least partially on the wall or roof. The device eliminates the loss of nutrients and simplifies the cultivation of plants.

The disadvantage of the design is the high cost of its production, complex installation and the presence of many components.

The objective of the utility model is to simplify the method of growing crops on vertical surfaces, as well as to eliminate the disadvantages of existing models.

The technical result consists in reducing the cost of manufacture and installation, increasing reliability by simplifying the design.

The specified technical result is achieved due to the fact that the declared phytomodule of the closed type for growing crops and landscaping of vertical surfaces, made in the form of a vertical panel made of plastic and having a supporting part for mounting on a vertical supporting surface, contains trays, trays are made in the form of boxes closed type, and in each tray there are holes for planting, characterized in that the panel is made in the form of a single structure, containing trays placed one below the other and having transverse angle.

The panel can be made of opaque, durable, non-toxic and rot-proof plastic.

The back cover of the phytomodule is acceptable to ensure the tightness of the phytomodule if necessary.

Preferably, the phytomodule is configured to connect with the same type of modules into a single irrigation and / or drainage system.

Preferably, between the panel trays there are additional openings for fastening to the supporting surface.

Brief Description of the Drawings

In FIG. 1 shows the phytomodule device (a - front view, b - side view with planted plants).

In FIG. 2 shows a practical example of a phytomodule installed and fixed on a support.

Utility Model Implementation

The phytomodule (see Fig. 1, Fig. 2) for vertical gardening can be implemented as a vertical panel 1 made of plastic and having a supporting part 2 for mounting on a vertical supporting surface. The panel 1 is made containing trays 6, placed one below the other and having a transverse angle of inclination.

The novelty of the utility model is that the panel 1 is made in the form of a single design, and the trays 6 are made in the form of boxes of a closed type. Also in each tray 6 there are holes 5 for planting plants.

Plants can be grown both in soil and hydroponic in the filler.

The phytomodule is used as follows.

Phytomodules are attached to the wall of a room or building (see Fig. 2) at the required height, one below the other or next to each other in a vertical plane using conventional fasteners, for example, screws. For this, holes 3 along its perimeter can be made in the supporting part of the panel 2 (in the frame). If one phytomodule is placed on top of another, then a drain pipe can be installed in the lower tray 6 of the upper phytomodule, with the function of removing fluid from the lower tray through a pipe or tube into the upper tray of a similar phytomodule installed under the lower tray.

After installation in each tray 6 of the phytomodule, soil or filler is poured through the holes 5, depending on the growing option. Soil is poured just below the level of the hole to prevent spillage during operation and spillage of liquid during irrigation. After this, plants are planted. Watering plants can be done either manually, directly into each hole under the root of the plant, or using an irrigation system. The irrigation system can be made in the form of an oozing hose located in each tray box, as well as using compensated droppers for watering plants. Water supply is carried out using tubes. Inside the module, channels can be provided between the tray-boxes for laying irrigation tubes (hoses).

Between the trays 6 of the panel 1, additional openings 4 can be made for fastening to the supporting surface, which makes it possible to strengthen the fastening of the phytomodule structure to the support.

Useful technical effects from the use of the phytomodule are to increase reliability by simplifying the design, expanding the scope by providing the ability to use a variety of methods of growing plants.

Also useful effects include reducing the cost of manufacturing and installation due to the use of labor-intensive technologies, since the panel of the claimed device is implemented through the production of a ready-made phytomodule by molding from plastic on the basis of a single mold.
