Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of planting technology, specifically to an integrated landscape planting device for rainwater harvesting and utilization. Background Technology

[0002] With the acceleration of urbanization and the continuous improvement of people's requirements for the quality of their living environment, landscape planting is playing an increasingly important role in urban construction, park planning, and residential greening. Landscape planting not only beautifies the environment and improves air quality, but also provides people with comfortable spaces for leisure and enjoyment. However, landscape planting faces challenges such as water scarcity and high irrigation costs. Traditional irrigation methods mainly rely on municipal water supply, which not only consumes a large amount of water resources but also increases the cost of landscape maintenance.

[0003] Existing integrated landscape planting containers have small rainwater collection chambers at the bottom to collect small amounts of rainwater. These containers typically allow rainwater to infiltrate into the soil through gravity to water the plants. However, their rainwater collection capacity is limited, making it difficult to meet the needs of large-scale landscape planting, and their ability to control and regulate rainwater is weak. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To overcome the shortcomings of the above-mentioned technologies, the purpose of this invention is to provide an integrated rainwater harvesting and utilization landscape planting device, which solves the problems that existing landscape planting containers cannot effectively regulate the amount of rainwater used and that the amount of rainwater collected is limited and cannot meet the needs of large-scale landscape plant planting.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows: An integrated landscape planting device for rainwater harvesting and utilization is characterized by comprising a planting trough for accommodating landscape plants and a rainwater collection trough for collecting and storing rainwater; the planting trough is fixedly installed inside the rainwater collection trough; an inlet is provided at the bottom side of the planting trough for introducing rainwater from the rainwater collection trough into the planting trough; and a control mechanism is provided at the inlet for controlling the opening and closing of the inlet.

[0006] As a preferred embodiment, the control mechanism includes a transmission unit fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the planting trough and a sealing unit fixedly connected to the transmission unit; the transmission unit can drive the sealing unit to open or block the water inlet to control the opening and closing of the water inlet.

[0007] Furthermore, the transmission unit includes a fixed plate, one end of which is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the planting trough, and the other end of which is provided with a knob; the fixed plate has an adjustment hole for mounting a lead screw and its matching slider; the lead screw is rotatably mounted in the adjustment hole, and one end of the lead screw away from the planting trough passes through the end of the fixed plate and extends out of the fixed plate to be fixedly connected to the knob; the slider is sleeved on the lead screw; the sealing unit includes a sealing plate, which is fixedly mounted at the bottom of the slider and located outside the water inlet; the size of the sealing plate is larger than the water inlet; when the slider moves, it drives the sealing plate to move, thereby opening or blocking the water inlet.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment, the control mechanism further includes a flow shield fixedly installed inside the water inlet; the flow shield is configured with an opening at one end, the opening of the flow shield is fixedly installed at the water inlet, and its opening matches the shape and size of the water inlet; the flow shield is provided with a water inlet hole.

[0009] Furthermore, a sealing ring is provided on the side of the sealing plate facing the planting trough; a sealing groove is provided at one end of the opening of the flow shield, and the shape and size of the sealing groove match the sealing ring, so that when the sealing plate is close to the water inlet, the sealing ring on the sealing plate is embedded in the sealing groove to block the water inlet.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment, the landscape planting device further includes a moving mechanism located at the bottom of the rainwater collection trough; the moving mechanism includes a support and rollers, the support is fixedly installed at the bottom of the rainwater collection trough; the rollers are installed on both sides of the bottom of the rainwater collection trough and are rotatably connected to the support.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment, the landscape planting device further includes a fixing mechanism for fixing the landscape planting device in a set position; the fixing mechanism includes a grounding plate and a mounting frame fixedly connected to the grounding plate; the grounding plate is located at the bottom of the rainwater collection trough; the mounting frame is provided in two sets, respectively located at both ends of the rainwater collection trough, for lifting the grounding plate off the ground or pressing it down to contact the ground; the side of the grounding plate that is close to the ground and is used to contact the ground is provided with friction texture.

[0012] Furthermore, the mounting bracket includes a matching mounting plate and a guide rod. The mounting plate is fixedly disposed at the bottom of both ends of the rainwater collection trough, and a guide hole is formed on the mounting plate. The guide rod is inserted through the guide hole and slidably connected to the mounting plate. One end of the guide rod is fixedly disposed at the end of the grounding plate, and a pull rod is fixedly connected to the other end. The pull rod is larger than the guide hole and limits the mounting plate. A slot is formed on the side wall of the guide hole away from the rainwater collection trough. A groove is formed on the side wall of the guide rod away from the rainwater collection trough, and a locking block is connected to the groove by a spring. The locking block is adapted to the groove and the slot, so that the locking block can be inserted into the groove and the slot.

[0013] Furthermore, one of the mounting plates is provided with a push-pull bracket, which includes two parallel vertical rods, one end of which is fixedly mounted on the mounting plate and the other end is connected to a handle.

[0014] As a preferred embodiment, a receiving cylinder is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the rainwater collection trough, and the receiving cylinder is connected to the rainwater collection trough to expand the rainwater storage capacity.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: The integrated rainwater harvesting and utilization landscape planting device of the present invention solves the problems of existing landscape planting containers being unable to effectively regulate rainwater usage and having limited rainwater collection capacity. It not only cleverly combines rainwater resource utilization with landscape beautification, but also achieves multiple advantages such as effective regulation of rainwater usage, large rainwater collection capacity, water conservation, flexible arrangement and stable fixation through a user-friendly mechanical structure design. It meets the needs of large-scale landscape plant planting and has high practical value and market promotion prospects.

[0016] This invention collects rainwater through a collection trough on the planting base. Simultaneously, rotating a knob drives a lead screw to rotate within an adjustment trough, moving a slider on the lead screw and consequently a sealing plate. When the sealing plate is removed, rainwater flows into the planting trough through the inlet hole on the baffle cover; when the sealing plate covers the inlet, rainwater cannot flow in. This allows for flexible adjustment of the amount of rainwater entering the planting trough, preventing poor plant growth due to over- or under-watering and achieving water resource recycling.

[0017] This invention utilizes a pressing mechanism to retract the locking block into the guide rod, overcoming the spring force. At this point, pushing the pull rod downwards causes it to slide down through the guide hole until the contact plate fully contacts the ground. The friction grooves on the bottom of the contact plate increase friction with the ground, ensuring a stable fixation of the device. When the device needs to be moved, pulling the pull rod upwards causes the guide plate to lift the locking block. The locking block is then compressed and retracted into the guide rod by the locking groove, causing the contact plate to leave the ground. The device can then be moved via the rollers, improving both ease of use and stability. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0020] like Figure 1 As shown, this invention provides an integrated rainwater harvesting and utilization landscape planting device for landscape planting and collecting rainwater for irrigating plants. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the landscape planting device includes a planting trough 2 for accommodating and planting landscape plants and a rainwater collection trough 1 for collecting and storing rainwater. The planting trough 2 is fixedly positioned in the middle of the rainwater collection trough 1 to ensure the stability of the overall device after the landscape plants are placed. A water inlet 21 is provided on the bottom side of the planting trough 2 to introduce rainwater from the rainwater collection trough 1 into the planting trough 2, allowing rainwater to enter the planting trough 2 from the rainwater collection trough 1 through the water inlet 21. A control mechanism is provided on the outside of the water inlet 21 to control the opening and closing of the water inlet 21, which can flexibly control whether rainwater enters the planting trough 2. It can be adjusted according to the water requirements of the plants and the actual rainfall to avoid the plants being affected by overwatering or lack of water.

[0021] Symmetrical receiving cylinders 10 are fixedly installed on the outer walls of both sides of the rainwater collection trough 1. The receiving cylinders 10 are connected to the rainwater collection trough 1 to expand the rainwater storage capacity. The receiving cylinders 10 increase the rainwater storage capacity, preventing rainwater from overflowing and being wasted due to excessive rainfall. At the same time, they can provide additional water for plants during droughts, improving the adaptability of the device to different weather conditions.

[0022] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, the rainwater collection trough 1 is obtained by creating a rectangular groove in a cuboid structure; the planting trough 2 is fixedly installed in the center of the rainwater collection trough 1, and has a water inlet 21. Symmetrical openings are provided on both sides of the bottom of the rainwater collection trough 1, and symmetrically fixed receiving cylinders 10 are provided outside the openings; the receiving cylinders 10 have a semi-circular cylindrical structure, and one side of their plane is fixedly connected to the planting trough 2; the top of the receiving cylinders 10 is open to collect rainwater, which enters the rainwater collection trough 1 through the bottom opening.

[0023] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the control mechanism includes a transmission unit 3 fixedly installed on the outer wall of the planting trough 2 and a sealing unit 4 fixedly connected to the transmission unit 3. The sealing unit 4 is located on the outer side of the water inlet 21. The transmission unit 3 can drive the sealing unit 4 to open or block the water inlet 21 to control the opening and closing of the water inlet 21.

[0024] like Figure 3As shown, the transmission unit 3 includes a lead screw 32, a slider 33, a knob 34, and a fixing plate 35. One end of the fixing plate 35 is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the planting trough 2, thereby fixing the transmission unit 3 on the outer wall of the planting trough 2. The other end of the fixing plate 35 is fixedly mounted with a knob 34. The fixing plate 35 has an adjustment hole 31 for mounting the lead screw 32 and its matching slider 33. The lead screw 32 is rotatably mounted in the adjustment hole 31. One end of the lead screw 32 is rotatably connected to the end of the fixing plate 35 that is connected to the outer wall of the planting trough 2. The other end, away from the planting trough 2, passes through the end of the fixing plate 35 and extends out of the fixing plate 35 and is fixedly connected to the knob 34. The slider 33 is sleeved on the lead screw 32 inside the adjustment hole 31. The end of the lead screw 32 away from the planting trough 2, that is, the end that extends out of the fixing plate 35, is fixedly connected to the knob 34. The knob 34 is fixedly mounted with a handle 36, which is eccentrically positioned.

[0025] In actual operation, the knob 34 is rotated by rotating the handle 36. Because of the fixed connection between the knob 34 and the lead screw 32, the lead screw 32 rotates synchronously, thereby driving the slider 33 to move along the extension direction of the lead screw 32.

[0026] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the sealing unit 4 includes a sealing plate 41 and a sealing ring 42; the sealing plate 41 is fixedly disposed at the bottom of the slider 33, and the transmission unit 3 is fixedly connected to the sealing unit 4. The transmission unit 3 is disposed on the upper part of the outer wall of the planting trough 2 for easy operation; the sealing unit 4 is disposed at the bottom of the outer wall of the planting trough 2, outside the water inlet 21; the sealing plate 41 and the slider 33 are fixedly connected by the first connecting rod 37.

[0027] The sealing plate 41 is larger than the inlet 21 and is positioned directly opposite the inlet 21; when the slider 33 moves, it drives the sealing plate 41 to move, thereby opening or blocking the inlet 21.

[0028] A sealing ring 42 is provided on the side of the sealing plate 41 facing the water inlet 21 of the planting trough 2 to seal the water inlet 21.

[0029] like Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the control mechanism also includes a baffle 5, which is fixedly installed at the water inlet 21. The baffle 5 is configured with an open end, and the open end of the baffle 5 is fixedly installed at the water inlet 21. The shape and size of the opening of the baffle 5 match those of the water inlet 21, so that the outer side of the open end of the baffle 5 is fixedly and sealed to the water inlet 21. The other end of the baffle 5 is closed and located inside the planting trough 2. The baffle 5 has several water inlet holes 51. The baffle 5 can control the speed at which rainwater enters the planting trough 2, so as to prevent the water inflow from being too fast and difficult to control, resulting in excessive water inflow. A sealing groove 52 is provided at one end of the opening of the baffle 5. The shape and size of the sealing groove 52 match those of the sealing ring 42, so that when the sealing plate 41 is close to the water inlet 21, the sealing ring 42 on the sealing plate 41 is embedded in the sealing groove 52 to form a tight sealing structure, which blocks the water inlet 21 and prevents rainwater from leaking into the planting trough 2 from the gap between the sealing plate 41 and the baffle 5.

[0030] Specifically, the aforementioned fixing plate 35 is a rectangular plate structure; the adjustment hole 31 is a long strip-shaped through hole, located in the middle of the fixing plate 35; the shape of the adjustment hole 31 matches the shape of the slider 33. The water inlet 21 is a square water inlet 21; the baffle 5 is a cubic structure, with a water inlet 51 on its side, one end of which has a sealing groove 52 that matches the size and shape of the sealing ring 42, and the other end is a closed structure.

[0031] The working principle of this control structure is as follows: When the handle 36 of the transmission unit 3 rotates, it drives the knob 34 to rotate, which in turn drives the lead screw 32 to rotate within the adjustment hole 31. The slider 33 on the lead screw 32 moves accordingly, which in turn drives the sealing plate 41 to move through the first connecting rod 37. When the slider 33 drives the sealing plate 41 to move away from the water inlet 21, rainwater can flow into the planting trough 2 through the water inlet 51 on the anti-flow cover 5 via the water inlet 21. When the slider 33 drives the sealing plate 41 to move towards the water inlet 21 and seals the water inlet 21 with the sealing plate 41, rainwater cannot flow into the planting trough 2.

[0032] like Figure 5 As shown, the above-mentioned landscape planting device also includes a moving mechanism, which is located at the bottom of the rainwater collection trough 1 and is used to move the position of the landscape planting device. The moving mechanism includes a support 6 and rollers 7. The support 6 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the rainwater collection trough 1. The rollers 7 are installed on both sides of the bottom of the rainwater collection trough 1 and are rotatably connected to the support 6.

[0033] The support frame 6 includes support rods 61 for supporting rollers 7, with rollers 7 rotatably connected to both ends of the support rods 61; adjacent support rods 61 are parallel to each other and connected by a second connecting rod 62 to increase the support capacity and structural stability of the support frame 6. The movable structure is used to adjust the position of the landscape planting device, for example, by changing its position according to factors such as the angle of sunlight and landscape layout, thereby improving the flexibility and adaptability of the device.

[0034] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, two support rods 61 are provided, which are parallel to each other and fixedly installed at the bottom of the planting trough 2. Rollers 7 are rotatably connected to both ends of the support rods 61. Two through holes are provided on the support rods 61, and a second connecting rod 62 is fixedly inserted into the through holes of the two support rods 61 to fix the two support rods 61 together.

[0035] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the above-mentioned landscape planting device also includes a fixing mechanism for fixing the landscape planting device in a set position; the fixing mechanism includes a grounding plate 8 and a mounting frame 9 fixedly connected to the grounding plate 8; the grounding plate 8 is set at the bottom of the rainwater collection tank 1 for contacting the ground; the mounting frame 9 is set at both ends of the rainwater collection tank 1 for lifting the grounding plate 8 off the ground or pressing it down to contact the ground.

[0036] like Figure 5 As shown, the grounding plate 8 is located at the bottom of the moving mechanism, and the side of the grounding plate 8 that is close to the ground and in contact with the ground is provided with several friction grooves 81 to increase the friction between the grounding plate 8 and the ground and to achieve stable fixation of the device; the side of the grounding plate 8 that is away from the ground is fixedly connected to the mounting bracket 9.

[0037] like Figure 6 As shown, the mounting bracket 9 includes a mounting plate 93 and a guide rod 94. The mounting plate 93 is fixedly installed at the bottom of both ends of the rainwater collection tank 1, and a guide hole 91 is provided on the mounting plate 93. The guide rod 94 is inserted through the guide hole 91 and slidably connected to the mounting plate 93. One end of the guide rod 94 is fixedly installed at the end of the grounding plate 8, and a pull rod 97 is fixedly connected to the other end. The pull rod 97 is larger than the guide hole 91, which limits the mounting plate 93 and prevents the mounting plate 93 from detaching from the guide rod 94. Two sets of mounting brackets 9 are provided, and are fixedly installed at both ends of the grounding plate 8 respectively.

[0038] A slot 92 is provided on the side wall of the guide hole 91 away from the rainwater collection tank 1; a groove is provided on the side wall of the guide rod 94 away from the rainwater collection tank 1, and a locking block 95 is connected to the groove by a spring 96. The locking block 95 is the same shape as the groove and smaller in size than the groove and slot 92. The locking block 95 fits into the groove and slot 92 so that the locking block 95 can be inserted into the groove and slot 92. The groove and locking block 95 are located at the upper part of the guide rod 94 to ensure that the grounding plate 8 can contact the ground when the locking block 95 is inserted into the slot 92.

[0039] The working principle of this fixing mechanism is as follows: When it is necessary to fix the rainwater collection tank 1 in the set position, press the locking block 95, causing it to retract into the groove of the guide rod 94 against the elastic force of the spring 96. At this time, push the pull rod 97 downward, and the pull rod 97 will drive the guide rod 94 to slide down in the guide hole 91 until the ground contact plate 8 is in full contact with the ground. The locking block 95 moves to the locking groove 92 on the side wall of the guide hole 91, and the locking block 95 pops out under the elastic force of the spring 96, and the locking block 95 is locked in the locking groove 92, fixing the guide rod 94. The friction texture 81 on the bottom of the ground contact plate 8 increases the friction with the ground, realizing the stable fixation of the device. When the device needs to be moved, press the locking block 95, the spring 96 retracts, causing the locking block 95 to enter the groove of the guide rod 94. At the same time, pull the pull rod 97 upward, the pull rod 97 drives the guide rod 94 to rise, thereby driving the locking block 95 to rise. The locking block 95 is held inside the groove of the guide rod 94 by the inner constraint force of the guide hole 91 and moves upward with the guide rod 94 in the guide hole 91. The ground plate 8 then leaves the ground, and the device can be moved by the roller 7, which improves the ease of use and stability of the device. When the locking block 95 rises to leave the guide hole 91, the locking block 95 can be set to pop out and lock on the top of the mounting plate 93, locking the guide rod 94 together with the ground plate 8 on the mounting plate 93.

[0040] The pull rod 97 not only limits the mounting plate 93, but also provides an easy gripping point for the operator. When it is necessary to pull the guide rod 94 upward, force can be applied more easily through the pull rod 97.

[0041] like Figure 1 As shown, one of the mounting plates 93 is also equipped with a push-pull bracket 98. The push-pull bracket 98 includes two parallel vertical rods 981. One end of the vertical rod 981 is fixedly mounted on the mounting plate 93, and the other end is connected to a handle 982. The two ends of the handle 982 are respectively fixedly connected to the two vertical rods 981, connecting the two vertical rods 981 together to increase the stability of the push-pull bracket 98. Specifically, the handle 982 has a rectangular structure, consisting of two horizontal rods and two vertical rods. The two ends of one horizontal rod are respectively fixedly connected to the two vertical rods 981, and the other horizontal rod is used for gripping to facilitate force application.

[0042] The push-pull bracket 98 provides a more convenient point of force for moving the device, reducing the difficulty of moving the device and making the moving operation easier.

[0043] The structure in this invention can be made of stainless steel, and the fixed connection can be made by welding, bolting, or gluing.

[0044] The working principle of the integrated rainwater harvesting and utilization landscape planting device of the present invention is as follows: When it rains, rainwater falls into the rainwater collection tank 1 and is collected and stored by the rainwater collection tank 1 and the container 10. At this time, the control mechanism covers and seals the water inlet 21.

[0045] When it is necessary to irrigate the landscape plants in the planting trough 2, the control knob 34 is turned, which drives the lead screw 32 to rotate in the adjustment hole 31. The slider 33 on the lead screw 32 moves accordingly, which in turn drives the sealing plate 41 to move away from the water inlet 21. Rainwater can flow into the planting trough 2 through the water inlet 51 on the anti-flow cover 5 through the water inlet 21 to irrigate the landscape plants in the planting trough 2. After irrigation, the control slider 33 drives the sealing plate 41 to move towards the water inlet 21 and covers and seals the water inlet 21, so that rainwater cannot flow into the planting trough 2.

[0046] This invention, through its control mechanism, allows for flexible adjustment of the amount of rainwater entering the planting trough 2, preventing poor plant growth due to over- or under-watering and achieving water resource recycling. The inclusion of both fixed and movable mechanisms enhances the ease of use and stability of the device.

[0047] The landscape planting device of the present invention achieves multiple functions in one through integrated structural design, including rainwater collection, quantitative irrigation, flexible movement and stable fixation.

[0048] This invention enables automatic rainwater collection and utilization, saving resources and improving plant survival rates. By employing a nested structure of rainwater collection troughs and planting troughs, along with side wall inlets, the invention effectively collects and stores rainwater. The collected rainwater can naturally infiltrate through the inlets or be controlled to enter the planting troughs, providing a continuous and stable water source for landscape plants. This reduces the frequency of manual watering and tap water consumption, aligning with green environmental protection principles, while also ensuring water supply for plants during dry seasons.

[0049] This invention achieves precise and reliable control of water intake, meeting diverse planting needs. Through the cooperation of a screw-slider transmission unit and a sealing unit, users can precisely control the opening and closing degree of the sealing plate at the water inlet by rotating a knob. This mechanical control mechanism is stable in structure, easy to operate, and can flexibly adjust the amount of water entering the planting trough according to the water requirements of different plants or weather conditions, effectively preventing root rot caused by excessive water or drought caused by insufficient water, thus improving the applicability and scientific nature of the device.

[0050] This invention features convenient mobility and stable fixation, enhancing the practicality of the device. The movable mechanism at the bottom allows the entire landscape device to be easily moved, facilitating adjustments to its position according to season, weather, or landscape layout requirements.

[0051] This invention features a unique fixing mechanism that allows the grounding plate to be raised for easy movement or lowered and locked to secure it to the ground through a simple push-pull operation. This prevents accidental movement on slopes or in windy weather, ensuring the stability and safety of the device. The friction texture further enhances the anti-slip effect when grounded.

[0052] This invention employs a sealing ring and sealing groove fitting design between the sealing plate and the end of the storm drain. When the inlet is closed, a tight seal is formed, effectively preventing unexpected leakage of water from the rainwater collection tank and ensuring water storage efficiency and precise control of irrigation.

[0053] The invention features a compact structure, high functional integration, and expandability. The entire device integrates planting, water storage, control, movement, and fixing functions, with a reasonable structural layout and high space utilization.

[0054] The present invention features a connected container cylinder on the outer wall of the rainwater collection trough, which can flexibly expand the water storage capacity according to local rainfall and usage needs, thereby enhancing the adaptability of the device to different application scenarios.

[0055] In summary, the integrated rainwater harvesting and utilization landscape planting device of the present invention solves the problems of existing landscape planting containers being unable to effectively regulate rainwater usage and having limited rainwater collection capacity. It not only cleverly combines rainwater resource utilization with landscape beautification, but also achieves multiple advantages such as effective regulation of rainwater usage, large rainwater collection capacity, water conservation, flexible arrangement, and stable fixation through a user-friendly mechanical structure design. It can meet the needs of large-scale landscape plant planting and has high practical value and market promotion prospects.
