Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of ecosystem, and particularly relates to a landscape ecosystem. Background Art

[0002] At present, most of the masonry materials used for walls, retaining walls, and slope support are solid modules or hollow modules, which do not have greening effects themselves. For greening, means such as planting climbing plants, spraying, and attaching external structures to the wall are mostly adopted. The wall and greening are often treated separately, with a long construction period and mutual constraints, and often a difficult choice between wall construction and greening has to be made. How to combine the two, retaining the function of the wall while achieving the greening effect of the wall, is a technical problem that needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Moreover, the existing landscape ecosystems made of modules are mostly secondary structures in terms of construction form, not only with a slow construction speed but also limited flexibility between modules, making the modules can only be arranged in the same plane and it is difficult to achieve free arc changes. With the acceleration of the urbanization process in China, the discharge of domestic sewage has also increased year by year, and a large number of distributed sewage treatment facilities have emerged. However, a large amount of reclaimed water is discharged into the rainwater pipe network after treatment, causing serious waste of water resources. In addition, the reclaimed water still contains a large amount of organic matter, nitrogen, and phosphorus, while urban vertical greening still requires a large amount of water. Organic matter, nitrogen, and phosphorus are essential nutrients for plant growth. If the reclaimed water treatment is combined with vertical greening, the waste of reclaimed water can be greatly saved, the reclaimed water can be further purified, the water quality of the discharged water can be improved, and the burden of the entire sewage treatment process can be reduced.

[0029] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that unless otherwise clearly specified and defined, the terms "installation", "connection", and "coupling" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be directly connected, or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and can be the communication inside two components. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0030] A landscape ecosystem, see Figures 1 to 9 , including a plurality of ecological modules 1 stacked and clamped together to form multiple layers with height differences. Among them, in this embodiment, the sizes and structures of the ecological modules 1 are the same, and the ecological modules 1 are arranged in a triangular pattern, that is, one ecological module 1 in the upper layer straddles and is clamped and pressed on two ecological modules in the lower layer, ensuring the stability of the ecosystem. The stacking and clamping of the ecological modules 1 are carried out by the dry-laying method of stacking and clamping, avoiding the use of adhesive materials such as cement. It is not only simple and fast to install, but also saves labor costs and material costs;

[0031] Furthermore, the clamping joints between adjacent ecological modules 1 are rotatable, and the angles of the clamping joints can be adjusted rotationally. Moreover, according to the terrain changes, by rotating the connection angles between the ecological modules 1, it can be adapted to different terrains and topographies. It can be rotated and installed according to the terrain changes to form a circular, arc-shaped or other shapes, with diverse shapes, effectively beautifying the environment;

[0032] Furthermore, the ecological module 1 has a planting pool, a water guide groove 15 and a drain hole 16. Filter materials are arranged in the planting pool. By injecting sewage into the planting pool of the top ecological module, a multi-stage filtration is formed between the upper and lower ecological modules through the planting pool, the filter materials, the water guide groove 15 and the drain hole 16 to purify the sewage on urban streets. The sewage is simply treated by microorganisms, and at the same time, the nitrogen and phosphorus elements in the sewage are used by plants, solving the problems of fertilization and irrigation water source for vertical greening plants, and also reducing the nitrogen and phosphorus content in the reclaimed water. The purified water body can be used as the landscape water system on urban streets.

[0033] An arc-shaped opening 13 is arranged downward at the mouth of the cylinder, and an opening 13 communicating with the planting pool is formed on the front surface of the ecological module 1. Plants are planted through the opening 13 so that the plants are formed at and around the opening 13 to form a landscape ecosystem.

[0034] Furthermore, the shape of the ecosystem can vary, such as forming a circular shape, an arc shape, or other shapes. With diverse shapes, it effectively beautifies the environment, possessing unique aesthetics and excellent visual effects. Of course, the ecosystem can not only be vertical but also be used for slope greening. At this time, the ecological module 1 can be in contact with the slope surface, and then the slope can be greened by means of stacking and clamping. Moreover, in the actual construction environment, the slopes have different heights. By adopting the setting method in this embodiment: the angle at the clamping position can be rotationally adjusted, which can meet different scenarios of slopes with different heights, as well as scenarios such as wall greening, retaining wall greening, slope greening, and landscape shaping. It not only occupies a small area but also has a large greening area.

[0035] Furthermore, the ecological module 1 includes two cylinders 11 with the same structure. The two cylinders 11 are connected side by side to form an integral structure. The bottom of the cylinder 11 is closed, and a planting pool is formed inside the cylinder 11. The planting pool is a cylindrical groove. The front side of the bottom end of the cylinder 11 slopes upward to form an inclined surface 14, and the rear side of the cylinder 11 is a horizontal plane. A protrusion 17 is provided on the horizontal plane. The size of the protrusion 17 is the same as the diameter of the mouth 12 of the cylinder 11. This not only facilitates the realization of clamping but also enables rotation between two different ecological modules 1 during clamping, facilitating the adjustment of the connection angle between adjacent ecological modules 1.

[0036] Furthermore, an arc-shaped opening 13 is provided downward at the mouth 12 of the cylinder 11. Compared with other openings 13, this setting method can avoid damaging the planted plants and can relatively enlarge the size of the opening 13, which is beneficial to plant growth. Vertically on the cylinder 11, the opening 13 corresponds to the inclined surface 14 at the bottom of the cylinder. With this setting method, when the openings 13 and the inclined surfaces 14 of the upper and lower ecological modules 1 cooperate, it increases the growth space of the plants and prevents the plants from growing and deforming excessively.

[0037] Furthermore, the water guide groove 15 and the drain hole 16 are located on the front side of the cylinder wall of the cylinder 11. The drain hole 16 runs horizontally through the side wall of the cylinder 11 and is located inside the water guide groove 15. The water guide groove 15 is vertically arranged. The bottom end of the water guide groove 15 corresponds to the inclined surface 14, and the top end of the water guide groove 15 corresponds to the lowest position of the opening 13. After the ecological modules 1 are stacked and clamped, when the upper planting pool is full of water, the water flows into the water guide groove 15 along the lowest position of the opening 13. And the water guide groove 15 is an arc-shaped groove. After the water is diverted, it is introduced into the planting pool of the lower ecological module 1 through the inclined surface 14. The design of the inclined surface 14 in cooperation with the water guide groove 15 and the drain hole 16 realizes the introduction of the water from the upper ecological module 1 into the lower ecological module 1 for multi-stage filtration.

[0038] Furthermore, on both sides of the ecosystem, since the ecological modules 1 are stacked and clamped in a triangular pattern, there are vacancies formed on the sides of the ecosystem. To increase the stability of the ecosystem, the ecosystem further includes auxiliary modules 2. The auxiliary modules 2 are stacked and clamped with the ecological modules 1 above and below the vacancies, and the connection between the auxiliary modules 2 and the ecological modules 1 is rotatable.

[0039] Furthermore, the auxiliary module 2 includes a left cylinder 21 and a right cylinder 22. The bottom of the left cylinder 21 is closed to form a planting pool. During use, the planting pool is filled with multiple layers of filtering materials. The openings of both the left cylinder 21 and the right cylinder 22 face upward. The front side of the bottom end of the left cylinder 21 slopes upward to form an inclined surface 25, and the rear side of the bottom end of the left cylinder 21 is a horizontal plane. A protrusion 28 is provided on the horizontal plane. The protrusion 28 is arc-shaped and has the same diameter as the opening 23 of the cylinder mouth. The protrusion 28 can be adapted to the opening 23 of the cylinder mouth.

[0040] Furthermore, an arc-shaped opening 24 is provided downward at the opening 23 of the left cylinder 21. The opening 24 corresponds to the inclined surface 25. During use, multiple auxiliary modules 2 can be stacked and clamped. The protrusion 28 of the upper auxiliary module 2 can be adapted to the opening 23 of the lower auxiliary module 2. After the inclined surface 25 and the opening 24 are combined, the combined opening becomes larger, increasing the growth space for plants and facilitating the planting and growth of plants.

[0041] Furthermore, a water guiding groove 26 and a drain hole 27 are provided on the cylinder wall of the left cylinder 21. The top end of the water guiding groove 26 corresponds to the opening 24, and the drain hole 27 is located in the water guiding groove 26, realizing the drainage of excess water in the left cylinder 21 and avoiding phenomena such as root rot of green plants due to excessive water in the left cylinder 21. During maintenance, when the planting pool is full of water, the water flows into the water guiding groove 26 along the lowest position of the opening 24 and is introduced into the left cylinder 21 of the lower module through the inclined surface 25. The setting of the inclined surface 25 in cooperation with the water guiding groove 26 and the drain hole 27 realizes the introduction of the water in the upper left cylinder 21 into the lower left cylinder 21 for multi-stage filtration.

[0042] Furthermore, a clamping groove 210 is provided at the mouth 23 of the right cylinder 22, and a protrusion 211 is provided at the bottom. The size of the protrusion 211 is the same as the caliber of the clamping groove 210. Both the clamping groove 210 and the protrusion 211 of the right cylinder 22 are annular. During use, multiple auxiliary modules 2 can be stacked and clamped, or can be rotated around the right cylinder 22 to change the angle. After the angle adjustment is completed, materials for fixing such as concrete are filled in the through groove 29 of the right cylinder 22 to effectively fix the right cylinder 22 vertically, and landscape ornaments in various different shapes are set. During the angle rotation of the left cylinder 21, the right cylinder 22 can always maintain its verticality, ensuring reliable support, effectively beautifying the environment, with unique beauty and excellent visual effects. The stacking and clamping method avoids the use of adhesive materials such as cement, not only is the installation simple and fast, but also the labor cost and material cost are saved, and it is time-saving and labor-saving during disassembly, convenient and fast.

[0043] In this embodiment, the filtering material includes a filtering layer, high-order aggregate planting soil, mud-blocking layer, and water-slowing layer. Through layer-by-layer filtration, sewage is purified, and the sewage is simply treated by microorganisms. At the same time, the nitrogen and phosphorus elements in the sewage are used by plants, solving the problems of fertilization and irrigation water source for three-dimensional greening plants, and reducing the nitrogen and phosphorus content in reclaimed water. The purified water body can be used as the landscape water system of urban streets. Plants and filtering materials can be replaced in a timely manner according to different requirements, different seasons, and water quality conditions.

[0044] Furthermore, the filtering layer is composed of activated carbon and sand and gravel. The aggregate mixed soil layer is composed of high-order aggregate planting soil and yellow clay. The mud-blocking layer is fiber mud, which is made of plant fibers, residues, sewage bacteria, and mixed and crushed shrimp and crab shells. The volume ratio of plant fibers, residues, sewage bacteria, and shrimp and crab shells is 1:0.8:0.01:0.1. The water-slowing layer is composed of a mixture of high-porosity clay and sand. The thickness ratio of the filtering layer: aggregate mixed soil layer: mud-blocking layer: water-slowing layer is 0.5:3:0.2:0.4; Further, the high-order aggregate planting soil is a self-developed high water-retention and fertilizer-retention planting soil. The volume ratio of activated carbon to sand and gravel is 0.3:0.4. The volume ratio of high-order aggregate planting soil to yellow clay is 0.6:0.3. The volume ratio of clay to sand is 0.7:0.1.
