Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of high-rise buildings, and specifically to a balcony suitable for planting in high-rise buildings. Background Art

[0002] In the current mainstream balcony design of high-rise buildings in urban communities, the main positioning of the balcony itself is for living functions such as drying, lighting, and ventilation. There is no reserved plant planting area, resulting in a shortage of space for urban balcony planting and greening. After general plant planting facilities are installed on the balcony, the original living functions of the balcony are greatly reduced, and there are also certain potential safety hazards in the scattered planting facilities. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a special balcony for urban high-rise buildings that integrates planting functions, living functions, and safety guarantees. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a balcony suitable for planting in high-rise buildings, which is composed of an inner balcony 310 and an outer balcony 300, and the two are separated by a panoramic floor-to-ceiling window 302 installed on the inner wall 102. Among them, the outer balcony 300 is a plant planting area, and an outer railing 301 is installed on the outer wall 101. At the bottom, a concave groove 100 is formed by a balcony floor 110, an outer wall 101, and an inner wall 102. The bottom surface and side surface inside the concave groove 100 are coated with a waterproof layer 103, and drainage and ventilation boxes 500 are installed on the outer wall 101 and the inner wall 102 respectively. A water pipe installation hole 201 is installed on the outer side of the inner wall 102, and a drip irrigation pipeline 105 is also installed inside the inner wall 102. Both the water pipe installation hole 201 and the drip irrigation pipeline 105 are connected to the inner balcony drainage system 202.

[0004] Among them, soil or water can be added to the concave groove 100 for planting plants. The height of the inner and outer walls of the concave groove 100 and the distance between the walls can be adjusted to form variable planting depths and widths. Its length follows the length of the balcony itself. Partition plates can also be optionally installed in the soil in the middle of the concave groove to plant plants with different soil and moisture condition requirements in different intervals.

[0005] Among them, the outer railing 301 is made of a high-strength light-transmitting material, which can be half the height of the balcony or the whole height of the balcony, making the balcony semi-open or fully enclosed respectively. The outer railing 301 can be fixed at half the height or the whole height, or can be height-adjustable, and can be adjusted according to the climate, temperature, or the needs of the planted plants.

[0006] Among them, an open panoramic floor-to-ceiling window 302 is installed on the inner wall 102, jointly forming a semi-open or closed space with front and rear light transmission with the outer wall 101 and the outer railing 301; a supplementary light 400 is installed on the top of the space, and the supplementary light 400 can be transformed into a supplementary light strip and optionally installed on the inner lower edge of the handrail of the outer railing 301 for lighting the outer balcony 300 or providing lighting and heating for plants;

[0007] Further, the drainage and ventilation box 500 penetrates through the inner wall 102 and the outer wall 101 respectively, and the inside of the drainage and ventilation box 500 adopts a design of a layered pore sandwich filter layer (for the structural schematic diagram, see Figure 5 ).

[0008] To ensure safety, all components of the balcony provided by the present invention are fixedly installed.

[0009] Due to the adoption of the "double-layer balcony" technical solution of the present invention, the present invention can solve the problem of the site for urban balcony planting and greening, and is equipped with drip irrigation, drainage, light transmission, and supplementary light measures, improving the planting efficiency; at the same time, it also ensures the safety of balcony planting.

[0010] The balcony provided by the present invention suitable for planting in high-rise buildings is particularly suitable for the agricultural planting and greening needs of urban high-rise buildings. It can not only be directly integrated into the balconies of newly built buildings, but also be retrofitted to the balconies of existing buildings, having good expandability and practicability.

[0019] Example 1, as a part of the urban high-rise building itself, the plantable balcony of the present invention has been considered and constructed as a whole during the balcony design and construction.

[0020] This embodiment provides a balcony suitable for planting in high-rise buildings as shown in Figure 1 . It is composed of an inner balcony 310 and an outer balcony 300, which are separated by a panoramic floor-to-ceiling window 302 installed on the inner wall 102; among them, the outer balcony 300 is a plant planting area, and a supplementary light 400 is installed on the top of the outer balcony for supplementing light on cloudy days or in the evening.

[0021] The outer railing 301 installed on the outer wall 101 is made of high-strength light-transmitting material; the bottom forms a concave groove 100 by the balcony floor 110, the outer wall 101, and the inner wall 102 (for the specific structure, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 ). The bottom surface and side surface inside the concave groove 100 are coated with a waterproof layer 103, soil is laid on the waterproof layer 103 inside the concave groove 100, and drainage and ventilation boxes 500 are installed on the outer wall 101 and the inner wall 102 respectively; a water pipe installation hole 201 is installed on the outer side of the inner wall 102, and a drip irrigation pipe 105 is also installed inside the inner wall 102. The water pipe installation hole 102 and the drip irrigation pipe 105 are both connected to the inner balcony drainage system 202.

[0022] Considering that the row spacing for general field planting is 26.7 cm and the active depth of the roots of general field crops is 25 cm, the recommended size of the concave groove 100 for the plantable balcony in this embodiment is 26.7 cm wide and 25 cm deep. The advantage of this size is that it can not only meet the minimum planting space required by the outer balcony 300, but also will not cause any impact on the basic living functions of the inner balcony 310. At the same time, the size of the concave groove 100 can be adjusted independently according to the distance and height between the outer wall 101 and the inner wall 102 to meet the diverse needs of users for planting depth and planting width. At the same time, the length of the concave groove 100 follows the length and shape of the balcony itself, referring to the cross-sectional top view schematic diagram in Figure 4 .

[0023] Furthermore, the interior of the drainage and ventilation box 500 adopts a design of layered pores 501 sandwiching a filter layer 503( Figure 5 ). The filter layer 503 can be made of materials such as gauze, activated carbon, non-woven fabric, etc. Through the detachable area 502, the filter layer 503 can be replaced at any time. Large-particle sediment is blocked by the sandwich space 505 formed by the layered pores 501, and small-particle impurities are adsorbed by the filter layer 503, ultimately ensuring that the outflowing water is clean, environmentally friendly, and meets municipal standards. When drainage is not required, the filter layer 503 can be replaced with a closed layer 504 to prevent water from overflowing.

[0024] Figure 6 This is the actual usage effect diagram of the balcony in this embodiment.

[0025] Embodiment 2: A plantable balcony designed for users with diverse planting needs.

[0026] Based on the above Embodiment 1, if a user needs to plant multiple plants with different requirements, a partition board 106 can be installed in the concave groove 100 to divide the concave groove 100 into more than 1 independent part, and each part is connected to the drip irrigation pipeline 105 and the drainage and ventilation box 500. Each independent part independently regulates the soil moisture conditions, thereby meeting the planting requirements of different plants. For the structural schematic diagram of the concave groove, see Figure 6 .

[0027] Embodiment 3: A plantable balcony designed for planting aquatic plants.

[0028] Compared with Embodiment 1, in Embodiment 2, the concave groove 100 is filled with water to create an aquatic environment. The rest is exactly the same as Embodiment 1.

[0029] Embodiment 4: Designed for planting in cold regions. Compared with Embodiment 1, in Embodiment 3, the height of the outer railing 301 made of high-strength light-transmitting material is raised to the roof to prevent the extreme low temperature in winter in cold regions. The rest is exactly the same as Embodiment 1.

[0030] Embodiment 5: A plantable balcony designed specifically for the renovation of old high-rise buildings.

[0031] The fundamental difference from Embodiment 1 is that the inner wall 102 and the panoramic floor-to-ceiling window 302 in Embodiment 4 are added through later construction on the basis of the existing balcony. Considering the load-bearing capacity of old buildings, lightweight building materials are preferably used for the inner wall 102. For this reason, its concave groove 100 is narrower than that in Embodiments 1-3 of the outer balcony 300. Therefore, the top space in this embodiment does not have the condition to install the supplementary light 400 anymore, and the supplementary light 400 is cancelled and replaced with a light strip installed along the inner lower edge of the outer railing 301. In addition, considering that there is no water inlet pipe installed on the balcony of some old buildings, the drip irrigation pipe 105 can be selected to be cancelled.

[0032] Of course, the above description is not a limitation of the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to the above examples. Any changes, additions, or substitutions made by those of ordinary skill in the art within the scope of the present invention shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
