[0025] The following are specific embodiments of the present utility model and in combination with the drawings, the technical solutions of the present utility model are further described, but the present utility model is not limited to these embodiments.

[0026] As Figure 1 shown, a plant growth basket for a bank protection structure includes a planting basket 10 and a plant system 20. The plant system 20 includes porous rib-like structures 21 and plants 22 fixed on the porous rib-like structures. The porous rib-like structures 21 are embedded in the planting basket 10 and supported to fix the plant system 20 on the planting basket 10. A connecting member 30 is provided on the planting basket 10, and the connecting member 30 is arranged on the bank protection structure to position and fix the planting basket 10. At least on its bottom surface, the planting basket 10 is provided with bottom holes 111 for the roots 222 of the plants to pass through.

[0027] Before using the present utility model, it is necessary to first cultivate the plant system 20. One form of the plant system 20 is that plants 22 are fixed in the porous rib-like body 21. The cultivation process is as follows: by using the porous rib-like body 21 with a pore structure, the seeds of the plants are located inside it. During the growth process, the vine part 221 can grow upward through the porous rib-like body 21 normally, and the root system 222 can extend downward through the porous rib-like body 21. Therefore, after the porous rib-like body 21 fixes the plants 22, a stable plant system 20 is formed. After the plant system 20 is separated from its cultivation environment and placed in the planting basket 10, the porous rib-like body 21 is positioned in the planting basket 10, and the root system 222 of the plants extends downward through the bottom holes 111 to complete the formation of the plant growth basket. When using the present utility model, the planting basket 10 is arranged at a matching position on the revetment structure through a connecting piece, so that the root system 222 of the plants can extend into the soil or water body (select the environment required by the root system of the plants according to different plant types). The vine part 221 of the plants plays a role in landscape decoration for the revetment structure. When the root system 222 of the plants extends into the soil, it can be used to achieve the soil fixation effect, and when it extends into the water body, it can be used to form a fish nest. In the present utility model, since the plants are cultivated in the early stage and are relatively fixed in a cluster through the porous rib-like body 21, it can have a better landscape effect. Moreover, the root system 222 of the plants can continue to absorb nutrients after extending into the soil or water body, thereby maintaining its growth and survival state, and can carry out long-term landscape decoration.

[0028] Furthermore, in addition to serving as a positioning carrier for plants, the porous ribbed structure 21 has the following two characteristics in terms of its pore structure. On the one hand, when fluids with kinetic energy such as rainwater, water flow, or tides impact the revetment structure or the plant growth basket, the porous ribbed structure 21 can disperse the scouring effect of water by virtue of its own structural characteristics, and use its thickness, internal channels, etc. to unload and divert water to reduce the impact kinetic energy of water, so as to avoid the plants being damaged or washed away by the water flowing with a large amount of energy. On the other hand, for the fine dust particles falling on the porous ribbed structure 21, the grass leaves and other substances falling into it, as well as the substances intercepted by the porous ribbed structure 21 during the water flow, they can accumulate in the pores of the porous ribbed structure 21 or accumulate above the porous ribbed structure 21 to form a new nutrient base layer, so that the plant seeds falling into it can take root and germinate to produce a new plant layer. Through the roots of the newly grown plants passing through the porous ribbed structure 21 and extending into the soil or water body, the self-repair and update of the plant system are completed. To sum up, the anti-scouring function of the porous ribbed structure 21 can weaken and reduce the impact of rainwater or water flow on plants. Its pore structure has an adsorption function (adsorbing soil particles carried during rainwater and river water scouring) and a siltation function (accumulating dead branches, fallen leaves and humus falling on it). The combination of these two functions enables the porous ribbed structure 21 to form a growth base conducive to plant growth, which helps the (re)growth of plants, so that the plant system 20 in the planting basket 10 can form a landscape decoration for the revetment structure for a long time and effectively.

[0029] To ensure the fixing effect of the porous ribbed structure 21 on plants and allow the branches 221 and roots 222 of plants to grow normally after passing through the porous ribbed structure 21, the thickness range of the porous ribbed structure 21 is selected to be 0 - 30 cm, and its porosity is selected to be 5 - 40 ppi (ppi refers to the number of holes per square inch, and the holes refer to honeycomb holes). The specific thickness and porosity need to be adjusted accordingly according to different plants during cultivation.

[0030] In addition, based on the above thickness setting, the upper end surface of the porous ribbed structure 21 is preferably lower than the upper end surface of the planting basket 10, so as to avoid affecting the aesthetic effect after protruding from the planting basket 10, and can also avoid the impact of water flow on the position near the root of the plant to a certain extent.

[0031] Furthermore, the porous ribbed structure 21 is an elastomer. For example, a sponge material can be selected. Through its elastic effect, it can make an interference fit with the (side wall) of the planting basket 10 to be clamped in the planting basket 10, so as to ensure the stability of the plant system 20 in the planting basket 10 and prevent it from detaching from the planting basket 10 due to the impact of external water flow, etc., and ensure the long-term effectiveness of the landscape decoration function.

[0032] Regarding the specific structure of the planting basket 10, such as Figure 2As shown, in one embodiment of the utility model, the planting basket 10 includes a bottom plate 11 and a side frame 12 arranged on the bottom plate 11, a bottom hole 111 is formed on the bottom plate 11, and a connecting piece 30 is formed on the bottom plate 11 in an inclined shape, and has an extension cavity 31 that passes through its body and is connected to the bottom hole 111, and the extension cavity 31 can be used to gather the roots 222 of the plants that pass through the bottom hole 111 and pass them through. To match the structure of the planting basket, the bank protection structure (such as a pile body) needs to be provided with an oblique insertion hole that passes through its body, and the connecting piece 30 is extended into the oblique insertion hole. The side wall of the planting basket 10 is abutted against the bank protection structure to form a positioning so that the planting basket 10 is located on the water-facing side of the bank protection structure, and the roots 222 of the plants can extend along the extension cavity 31 into the soil on the soil-facing side of the bank protection structure.

[0033] The root system 222 of the plant extends into the soil after passing through the bank protection structure with the help of the extension cavity 31, and the root system 222 is used to realize the soil fixation effect on the soil facing side, so the above-mentioned plant growth basket realizes the dual functions of landscape decoration and soil fixation. In addition, the root system 222 of the plant can partially pass through the bottom hole and extend into the extension cavity 31, and partially pass through the bottom hole that is not connected to the extension cavity 31, so that the root system 222 of the plant partially extends into the soil and partially extends into the water body, which can not only realize the soil fixation effect, but also form a fish nest.

[0034] The side frame 12 is disposed on the bottom plate 11 and at least located on one side of the water-facing surface to mitigate the direct impact of water flow on the porous tendon-shaped body 21 and the root position of the plant. In one embodiment, the side frame 12 is a sealed structure, that is, it does not have a through hole that can connect the inside and outside of the side frame, and isolates the inside and outside of the planting basket in the horizontal direction, thereby avoiding the impact of water flow on the plant system 20; in another embodiment, in order to ensure that the porous rib-shaped body 21 can better intercept nutrients in the water body to accumulate nutrient matrix, the side frame 12 is provided with a plurality of side holes 121 that penetrate its body, and the side holes 121 can be arranged in a relatively dense matrix shape, which can not only enable the water body to pass through and enter the porous rib-shaped body 21, but also avoid the impact of water flow; further, when the side hole 121 is set as a larger through hole, a middle cavity 122 connected to the side hole 121 is provided in the side frame 12, and a filler with a pore structure (such as a porous rib-shaped body) is provided in the middle cavity 122. The filler can achieve the functions of water storage and drainage, and regulate the water flow through the side frame 12 into the planting basket 10.

[0035] like Figure 3As shown, in another embodiment of the planting basket of the utility model, the difference from the above embodiment is that the planting basket 10 is not arranged on the water-facing surface of the revetment structure, but the planting basket 10 is arranged on the top of the revetment structure, that is, a plurality of plant growth baskets are connected and located at the upper end of the revetment structure to form a crown beam. Under this structure, the connecting member 30 is arranged on the side frame 12 and extends into the revetment structure to fix the bottom plate 11 between the side frame 12 and the revetment structure, and the root system 222 of the plant passes downward through the bottom hole 111 and extends into the soil or water body located in the revetment structure.

[0036] Combination Figure 4 As shown, the bank protection structure can be a sheet pile 40 formed of a polymer material or the like. After the sheet pile 40 is installed, the hollow portion 400 can be connected to the water-facing side, so that water and organisms such as fish can enter the hollow portion 400. The planting basket 10 is installed on the upper end of the sheet pile 40 through the connecting piece 30. The root system 222 of the plant passes through the bottom hole 111 and extends into the water in the hollow portion 400 to form a fish nest.

[0037] In order to ensure the accuracy and stability of the connection between the bottom plate 11 and the side frame 12, a positioning groove may be provided on one of them, and a positioning piece may be provided on the other, so that the positioning piece is embedded in the positioning groove.

[0038] Furthermore, an opening may be provided on the side frame 12 for connecting the interiors of adjacent planting baskets 10, thereby visually ensuring the continuity of the lateral extension of the vine portion 221 of the plant.

[0039] In the above-mentioned embodiments, cultivated plants have been fixed in the porous rib-shaped body 21 before the plant growth basket is used. In other embodiments, the plant system and planting basket with seeds (uncultivated) fixed in the porous rib-shaped body 21 can be used directly according to the use environment, and the seeds can be cultivated under the condition that the bottom of the planting basket is immersed in water by taking advantage of the characteristic of taking root and sprouting when encountering water.

[0040] The specific embodiments described herein are merely examples of the spirit of the present invention. Those skilled in the art may make various modifications or additions to the specific embodiments described or replace them in similar ways, but they will not deviate from the spirit of the present invention or exceed the scope defined by the appended claims.
