Abstract
Description
Technology Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a structure for protecting and planting various plants.
[0002] More specifically, the invention relates to an eco-friendly, multi-functional planting structure that allows plants, such as flowers, to be planted as they are without removing the pot when transplanting them to a landscaping site, prevents soil drying by storing rainwater, and enables roots to spread easily. Background Technology
[0003] When plants such as saplings are shipped from a nursery and transplanted to landscaping spaces or growing sites, there was previously the inconvenience of having to remove the existing pots one by one at the landscaping site before transplanting the plants.
[0004] The conventional method of removing existing pots and transplanting had problems such as slow work speed and reduced productivity because workers had to remove the pots one by one, a reduced survival rate of transplanted plants due to damage to the roots during the removal process, and waste generation because the existing pots had to be disposed of.
[0005] In addition, when soil dryness persists for a long time due to the dry season or when small amounts of moisture are widely absorbed into the soil, plants lose moisture to weeds and other factors, leading to dehydration. This results in damage such as cracked tree bark, withered roots or branches, failure of new shoots to sprout in the spring, and delayed growth.
[0006] Therefore, there was a need to develop a planting structure that could effectively protect and cultivate plants through a simple structure, simplify transplanting operations, and effectively reduce winter frost or cold damage. Prior art literature

[0028] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the attached drawings so that those skilled in the art can easily implement the invention. However, the present invention may be embodied in various different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. Furthermore, in order to clearly explain the present invention in the drawings, parts unrelated to the explanation have been omitted, and similar parts throughout the specification are given similar reference numerals. Throughout the specification, when a part is described as "comprising" a certain component, this means that, unless specifically stated otherwise, it does not exclude other components but may include additional components. Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the attached drawings.
[0029] The present invention relates to an eco-friendly, multi-functional planting structure capable of wrapping around plants such as trees and flowers to protect them, promote plant growth, and reduce frost damage.
[0030] The eco-friendly multi-functional planting structure of the present invention may include a lower partition (110), a bottom plate (120), an inner partition (130), an outer partition (140), a fixing part (150), a lower planting part (160), an upper planting part (170), a space part (180), a fixing pin (200), and a cover (300).
[0031] The lower partition (110) is provided to close a certain space in a horizontal direction.
[0032] In one embodiment of the lower partition (110) above, the planar shape is provided to be rectangular to close off a certain space. Although the drawing shows an embodiment in which the planar shape of the lower partition (110) is rectangular, polygons or circles other than rectangular are also possible.
[0033] A bottom plate (120) is integrally provided at the bottom of the lower bulkhead (110).
[0034] The space partitioned by the lower partition wall (110) and the floor plate (120) becomes the lower planting section (160).
[0035] The lower partition (110) is provided with a plurality of first holes (111) to provide a space where plant roots can grow and extend outward.
[0036] The above-mentioned bottom plate (120) is provided with a plurality of second holes (121) to provide a space through which plant roots can grow and extend downward.
[0037] The inner diameters of the first through hole (111) and the second through hole (121) can be provided to gradually increase from the outer side to the inner side of the lower planting section (160).
[0038] In order to make it easier for plant roots to spread out through the holes, it is desirable to make the size of the holes large. However, if the holes are too large, there is a problem that soil may be lost through the lower partition and the bottom plate. Therefore, the inner diameter of the first hole (111) and the second hole (121) is made relatively large so that the roots can easily find the holes, while the outer diameter of the first hole (111) and the second hole (121) is made smaller than the inner diameter so that soil is not easily lost.
[0039] Based on the side shape, the lower bulkhead (110) may be provided vertically to the ground or may be provided in a shape inclined at a certain angle.
[0040] The above internal partition (130) is integrally provided on the upper part of the lower partition (110).
[0041] The above internal partition (130) is provided to close a certain space in a horizontal direction.
[0042] In one embodiment of the above internal partition (130), the planar shape is provided to be rectangular to close off a certain space. Although the drawing shows an embodiment in which the planar shape of the internal partition (130) is rectangular, polygons or circles other than rectangular are also possible.
[0043] The lower partition (110) and the inner partition (130) may be provided in a straight line, or they may be provided with a step outward as shown in the drawing. Additionally, they may be provided with a step inward in the opposite direction to the drawing.
[0044] Based on the side shape, the internal partition (130) may be provided vertically to the ground or may be provided in a shape inclined at a certain angle.
[0045] The space partitioned by the above internal partition (130) becomes the upper planting section (170).
[0046] The upper planting section (170) is connected vertically to the lower planting section (160).
[0047] The outer partition (140) is provided to surround the outer side of the inner partition (130) and be spaced apart from the inner partition (130).
[0048] In one embodiment of the above external partition (140), the planar shape is provided to be rectangular to close off a certain space. Although the drawing shows an embodiment in which the planar shape of the external partition (140) is rectangular, polygons or circles other than rectangular are also possible.
[0049] The lower partition (110) and the outer partition (140) may be provided in a straight line, or they may be provided with a stepped edge on the outside as shown in the drawing.
[0050] A space (180) surrounding the upper planting section (170) is formed by the spaced-apart space between the inner partition (130) and the outer partition (140).
[0051] The above space (180) can produce two major special effects.
[0052] First, rainwater or supplied water can be stored in the space (180) and gradually supplied to the upper and lower planting sections, thereby preventing the soil from drying out and reducing the frequency and amount of watering for plants, thereby reducing management costs.
[0053] Secondly, since the space (180) is provided in a form that surrounds the upper planting section, a plant insulation structure may be formed by the thermal insulation effect.
[0054] Since the air layer has excellent thermal insulation or thermal insulation performance, the present invention has devised a structure of an inner partition (130) and an outer partition (140) so that an air layer can be formed on the outside of the upper planting section, and by forming a space section (180) partitioned by the inner partition (130) and the outer partition (140), the plants inside can be protected from frost damage or cold damage.
[0055] In order to allow water stored in the above space (180) to gradually seep into the upper planting section (170) and the lower planting section (160), the internal partition (130) may be provided with a water supply slit (131) in the vertical direction.
[0056] The above-mentioned water supply slit (131) may be provided by cutting it lengthwise in the vertical direction with a width of 0.1 to 2 mm.
[0057] The vertical length of the above-mentioned water supply slit (131) may be provided over the entire length of the inner partition (130), or may be provided smaller than the vertical length of the inner partition (130).
[0058] By accommodating plants in the lower planting section (160) and the upper planting section (170), plant movement and transplantation are facilitated, plants are protected and nurtured, and frost damage to plants is reduced.
[0059] After inserting the eco-friendly multi-functional planting structure of the present invention into the ground, a fixing part (150) may be integrally provided on the upper end of the outer partition (140) facing outward to prevent shaking and movement of the structure.
[0060] The above-mentioned fixed part (150) may be provided in the form of a thin plate extending outward from the outer partition (140), and may be provided with a plurality of pin holes (151). An embodiment in which four pin holes (151) are provided is shown in the drawing.
[0061] The fixing pin (200) is inserted into the ground through the pin hole (151) above to firmly hold the structure.
[0062] The above cover (300) may be provided to cover the upper part of the space (180).
[0063] The above space (180) is open toward the top so that various foreign substances, trash, soil, plants, etc. can enter, so a cover (300) can be placed over the top to prevent foreign substances from entering.
[0064] However, since rainwater or water supply must be stored in the space (180), the cover (300) is provided with a continuous groove (310) that is concave toward the top, and a plurality of permeable holes (320) may be provided to penetrate vertically through the groove (310).
[0065] Accordingly, water that falls on the cover (300) can flow along the groove (310) and then fall into the space (180) through the permeable hole (320) and be stored.
[0066] In addition, to fix the cover (300), the cover (300) is also provided with a pin hole (330) so that it can be fixed by a fixing pin (200) together with the pin hole (151).
[0067] The planar shape of the lower partition (110), bottom plate (120), inner partition (130), and outer partition (140) can be polygonal or circular.
[0068] It is preferable that the materials of the lower partition (110), floor plate (120), inner partition (130), outer partition (140), fixing part (150), and cover (300) be made of a material in which no harmful substances are detected or are detected at levels below the standard limit. In one embodiment, they may be made of a biodegradable material so that they decompose after a certain period, allowing the planted plants to naturally settle on the original ground.
[0069] The upper and lower partition (110), bottom plate (120), inner partition (130), outer partition (140), fixing part (150), and cover (300) may have various upper and lower lengths, thicknesses, planar areas, thicknesses and volumes of the space part (180), etc., depending on the size of the plant to be planted, the climate conditions of the planting site, etc.
[0070] Hereinafter, an example of a plant transplanting process using the eco-friendly multi-functional planting structure of the present invention described above will be explained.
[0071] 1. Select the landscaping space (original ground) to transplant the plants, remove weeds, etc., and then dig a hole to insert the planting structure.
[0072] In order to soften the surrounding soil through which roots will spread through the first and second holes, it is preferable to dig the pit wider and deeper than the structure of the present invention.
[0073] 2. Insert the planting structure of the present invention, in which plants are planted, into a pit.
[0074] In the past, in order to separate a seedling from a pot, the pot had to be carefully separated and removed without damaging the roots, which made the work difficult and reduced productivity. However, in the present invention, the process of removing the pot is omitted and transplanting is possible immediately, so the transplanting work can be carried out very easily and quickly.
[0075] In addition, when transplanting after removing the pot, there were cases where the roots failed to properly take root in the transplanted soil because their ability to absorb water decreased immediately after transplanting; however, by utilizing the structure of the present invention, there is no damage to the roots, and the survival rate in the transplanted soil can be improved.
[0076] When laying a weed control mat (4) on the ground, the weed control mat (4) is laid before inserting the structure, and after cutting the weed control mat (4) at the location where the structure is to be inserted (location where the pit is), the structure can be inserted by pressing it from top to bottom at the cut weed control mat (4).
[0077] 3. Adjust the position and height of the structure so that the plant settles into place.
[0078] The fixed part (150) can be installed so as to be in close contact with the upper surface of the original ground (1) (if a weed control mat (4) is laid, the fixed part (150) can be positioned so as to be in close contact with the upper surface of the weed control mat (4).
[0079] 4. After adjusting the position of the structure, install the cover (300), and insert the fixing pin (200) into the pin hole (330) and the pin hole (151) to fix it to the original ground.
[0080] And, by performing finishing work such as filling in the remaining soil, the transplantation work using the structure of the present invention can be completed.
[0081] The present invention has been described with reference to the embodiments illustrated in the drawings, but this is merely illustrative, and those skilled in the art will understand that various modifications and equivalent alternative embodiments are possible therefrom.
[0082] Therefore, the true scope of technical protection of the present invention should be determined by the technical concept of the appended claims. Explanation of the symbols
