Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of garden architecture, and in particular relates to an ecological assembled grass-planted bank protection structure in a waterfront area. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, with the increasing number of waterfront projects, targeted landscape designs are being implemented across various regions. However, traditional revetments present challenges in their design and construction, impacting not only the ecological environment of the river but also the human living environment. Traditional revetments typically utilize hard materials such as stone and concrete. This structural design alters the natural appearance of the riverbank, severing the connection between the soil and water, disrupting the contact between organisms and microorganisms in the river's waters and the land, and reducing the river's natural self-purification capacity. Traditional revetment methods often detract from the beauty of the river's natural landscape, particularly in urban waterways. This practice negatively impacts the city's image and residents' quality of life.

[0003] Traditional revetments often create a flat, linear river channel shape, disrupting the natural form and flow of the river, and affecting its function. Traditional revetments fail to effectively address this problem; instead, they can completely paralyze the ecosystem in the area where the river lies due to excessive excavation and damage to the original ecological environment. Traditional revetments often have a relatively uniform cross-section, which is detrimental to biodiversity conservation. While artificially modified riverbeds offer improved water transport performance, their uniform cross-sections compromise the diversity of the river channel. Problems with the design and construction of traditional revetments not only impact the river's ecological environment but also negatively impact human living environments and the natural landscape. Therefore, improvements are needed to better align traditional revetments with ecological conservation requirements.

[0004] Prefabricated revetments have a wide range of applications. They are easy to construct and require modular installation. They can also adapt to varying bank slopes, enhancing the beautification of the environment and fostering interactive experiences between people and the revetment, adding to the landscape's appeal. They also offer excellent ecological greening benefits. However, existing revetment systems are often single-use, resulting in poor landscape effects or even negligible ecological benefits. Furthermore, existing revetments deteriorate over time, making it difficult to achieve optimal landscape effects due to material limitations and durability. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides an ecologically sound prefabricated grassed revetment structure for waterfront areas. This novel structural design offers ecological benefits. It addresses the practical construction challenges encountered on existing slopes with large elevation differences, overcoming the shortcomings and drawbacks of conventional revetments, which often have limited forms and poor ecological effects.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention is implemented through the following technical solutions:

[0007] An ecological assembled grass-planted bank protection structure for a waterfront area comprises a plurality of planting troughs arranged in a stepped manner on a slope, wherein the planting troughs are filled with a green planting culture medium, on which plants are planted, and a plurality of air holes are provided on the side walls of the planting troughs; the planting troughs are provided with nozzles for irrigating the plants, a water supply pipe is embedded in the planting troughs, the water outlet of the water supply pipe is connected to the nozzle, and the water inlet of the water supply pipe is connected to a water supply system, and the front edge and / or the side edge of the planting trough are raised upward to form a water retaining structure.

[0008] As a further optimization solution of the present invention, a plurality of protruding connecting fixings are provided on the slope, and the connecting fixings are adapted to the inner groove opened on the inner side of the planting groove, and the connecting fixings and the inner groove are connected in a mortise and tenon manner.

[0009] As a further optimization solution of the present invention, a buttress-type rib wall is provided on the side slope between two adjacent planting troughs.

[0010] As a further optimization solution of the present invention, an overflow trough is provided on the water retaining structure.

[0011] As a further optimization solution of the present invention, the vegetation trough is a modular customized concrete vegetation trough.

[0012] As a further optimization solution of the present invention, the plants are selected from drought-resistant and high-temperature-resistant plants.

[0013] As a further optimization solution of the present invention, the drought-resistant and heat-resistant plant is any one of Icelandic poppy, cosmos, zinnia, jasmine, red flax, and baby's breath.

[0014] As a further optimization solution of the present invention, the front side of the planting trough is designed to be a concave surface.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following significant advantages and beneficial effects:

[0016] This new grass-planted revetment structure provides a favorable growth environment for plants through multiple, stepped planting troughs. The troughs are filled with greening cultivation medium and planted with drought- and heat-tolerant plants, enhancing the revetment's ecological function and improving waterfront biodiversity. Furthermore, multiple ventilation holes are provided on the sidewalls of the troughs, facilitating the breathing and growth of plant roots, further enhancing the revetment's ecological effectiveness.

[0017] This new grass revetment structure utilizes modular, customizable concrete troughs for rapid installation and removal.

[0019] The grass-planted revetment structure of this utility model features upwardly raised front and / or side edges of the planting trough, forming a water retaining structure that effectively prevents water from eroding the revetment. Furthermore, an overflow trough is provided on the revetment structure to promptly drain water when the water level is too high, preventing the plants from being flooded. This design, thanks to the deadweight of the concrete modules, ensures the stability of the revetment structure while also enhancing its flood control capabilities.

[0020] The grass-planted revetment structure of this utility model features multiple protruding connecting fixtures on the slope. These fixtures connect to the inner grooves within the planting troughs using mortise and tenon joints. This connection method is not only secure and reliable, but also allows for quick installation and fixation of the planting troughs. Furthermore, a buttress-style rib wall is installed on the slope between adjacent planting troughs, further enhancing the stability and load-bearing capacity of the revetment structure.

[0021] This new grass-planted revetment structure was designed with landscaping in mind. The concave front of the vegetation trough enhances the revetment's layered and three-dimensional appearance. Furthermore, the use of drought- and heat-resistant plants ensures the revetment maintains a pleasant landscape effect throughout the year. This design not only improves the ecological environment of the waterfront, but also enhances the city's overall appearance and the quality of life of its residents.

[0026] like Figure 1 and 2 As shown, the utility model is an ecological assembled grass-planted bank protection structure for waterfront areas, comprising a vegetation trough 1 and a water supply system.

[0027] In some examples, the vegetation trough design structure is as follows: the vegetation trough 1 is arranged in a stepped manner on the slope, and each vegetation trough 1 is a modular customized concrete vegetation trough 1. The vegetation trough 1 is filled with a green planting culture medium 2, and the culture medium 2 is planted with drought-resistant and heat-resistant plants (not shown in the figure), such as Icelandic poppies, cosmos, zinnias, jasmine, red flax, baby's breath, etc. These plants can not only adapt to the changing climatic conditions of the waterfront area, but also effectively enhance the ecological function of the revetment. A plurality of air holes 3 are provided on the side wall of the vegetation trough 1 to ensure smooth breathing of the plant roots and promote healthy plant growth.

[0028] In some examples, the water supply system design structure includes a water supply pipe 5 embedded within the planting trough 1. The outlet of the water supply pipe 5 is connected to a sprinkler 4 mounted on the planting trough 1, forming a sprinkler irrigation system. Automatic sprinkler irrigation is achieved by connecting the water supply system to the water inlet of the water supply pipe 5. This design ensures timely nourishment for plants during dry seasons or when additional water is needed, thereby improving plant survival rates. The water supply system can be any conventional option in the art.

[0029] In some examples, the front and / or side edges of the vegetation trough 1 are raised to form a water retaining structure 6, which effectively prevents water from eroding the revetment structure. An overflow trough 7 is provided on the water retaining structure 6. When the water level is too high, the water can be discharged through the overflow trough 7 to avoid flooding.

[0030] In some examples, a plurality of protruding connecting fixtures 8 (e.g., concrete blocks) are provided on the side slope. These connecting fixtures 8 are adapted to the inner grooves provided inside the planting trough 1, and are connected to the inner grooves using mortise and tenon joints. This connection method is not only strong and reliable, but also allows the connecting fixtures 8 to fit well with the inner grooves of the planting trough 1, enabling quick installation and fixation.

[0031] Furthermore, a buttress rib wall 9 is provided on the side slope between two adjacent vegetation grooves 1. The buttress rib wall 9 provides fixed support for the vegetation grooves 1 on both sides, further enhancing the overall stability and bearing capacity of the revetment structure and improving the anti-scouring ability of the revetment.

[0032] Furthermore, the front of the vegetation trough 1 is designed as an inner concave surface 10 to increase the layering and three-dimensional effect of the revetment. This design not only improves the landscape effect of the revetment, but also reduces the direct impact of water flow on the revetment to a certain extent.

[0033] The specific implementation steps are as follows:

[0034] On-site investigation and design: Based on the actual conditions of the waterfront area, conduct on-site investigation to determine the length, height, slope and other parameters of the revetment, and design the corresponding vegetation trough size, quantity and layout.

[0037] Install the planting trough: Install the prefabricated planting trough 1 according to the design requirements, using the mortise and tenon joints between the inner trough and the connecting fixtures 8. During the installation process, ensure that the buttress ribs 9 between the planting troughs 1 are correctly positioned and firmly connected.

[0038] Filling culture medium and planting plants: Fill the greening planting culture medium 2 in the planting trough 1, and plant drought-resistant and high-temperature-resistant plants according to design requirements.

[0039] Debug the water supply system: Connect the water supply system to the water inlet of the water supply pipe 5 and debug it to ensure that the sprinkler irrigation system can work normally.

[0040] Acceptance and Maintenance: The revetment structure is inspected and verified to meet the design requirements. During use, regular maintenance work such as pruning and fertilizing plants is performed to ensure the stability and ecological function of the revetment structure.

[0041] In summary, the present embodiment discloses an ecological assembled grass revetment structure for waterfront areas. The vegetation trough of the grass revetment has the function of retaining water and can be quickly installed. It has good integration with the slope protection and is fixed to the slope through prefabricated concrete blocks. In addition, it is possible to achieve rapid and large-scale watering by setting a sprinkler, so that the plants can obtain water nourishment. The structural design of this embodiment is novel and has many advantages of ecological revetment. It solves the construction difficulties encountered in the actual application of existing slope protection technology and overcomes the defects and disadvantages of ordinary slope protection, which has a single form and insufficient ecological benefits.
