Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of wall technology, and more particularly to a vertical green wall. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, most existing vertical green wall technologies are still in their early stages, and many solutions do not fully realize the ecological functions of the green walls. Existing vertical green wall technologies have several shortcomings. First, because traditional systems often rely on simple slots or supports on the wall surface, plants are usually placed in these slots, and the water and nutrients needed for plant growth are difficult to guarantee systematically and continuously. Therefore, plants often require manual watering. Second, when plants on existing vertical green walls need to be replaced or removed, current technologies often cannot easily remove the plants and their containers together; the disassembly process is cumbersome and can easily damage the plants or the wall. Furthermore, the connection methods between planting containers and the wall surface in existing technologies are mostly not simple enough, lacking modular and detachable designs, increasing the difficulty of construction and subsequent maintenance of the green wall.

[0003] Based on the above problems, it is necessary to propose a vertical green wall to solve the problems of needing to water plants manually during their growth and the inconvenience of replacing plants in existing vertical green walls. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this application is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and propose a vertical green wall that solves the problems of needing to water plants manually during their growth and the inconvenience of replacing plants in the prior art.

[0041] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 This application proposes a vertical green wall 10, including a wall 100, multiple plant boxes 200, and an irrigation device 300. The wall 100 has multiple connecting channels (not shown in the figure) and multiple plant troughs 120. Each of the connecting channels is vertically connected to an adjacent plant trough 120. The multiple plant boxes 200 are used to place plants, and any plant box 200 can be inserted into a plant trough 120. Each plant box 200 has a connecting hole 210 at its bottom. The irrigation device 300 is located at the top of the wall 100 and is used to supply water to each of the connecting channels so that the water flows downward and is distributed to each plant box 200.

[0042] Specifically, the vertical green wall 10 includes a wall 100, plant boxes 200, and an irrigation device 300, which work together to form an efficient vertical greening system. The wall 100 has multiple plant troughs 120 and connecting channels. The plant troughs 120 accommodate the plant boxes 200. The connecting channels penetrate the wall 100 vertically, connecting adjacent plant troughs 120 and establishing a vertical water flow path. This allows water to be evenly distributed from the top of the wall 100 along the connecting channels to each plant trough 120 and plant box 200, ensuring uniform water distribution on the green wall 100 and preventing uneven plant growth due to uneven watering. The design of the plant troughs 120 fully considers the insertion and fixing requirements of the plant boxes 200, ensuring the stability of the plant boxes 200, while also enabling quick assembly and disassembly, facilitating plant replacement and maintenance. The planter box 200 adopts an independent modular design for planting plants. Each planter box 200 can be inserted into a planter trough 120. A connecting hole 210 is provided at the bottom of each planter box 200. When the planter box 200 is inserted into the planter trough 120, the connecting hole 210 connects to the connecting channel of the wall 100, allowing water to flow smoothly into the planter box 200, providing sufficient moisture to the plant roots. This modular design allows for the replacement of plants along with the planter box 200, greatly improving the maintenance efficiency of the green wall 100. The irrigation device 300 is located at the top of the wall 100. Water is supplied from the top, using gravity to deliver water to each connecting channel. The water is then evenly distributed to the roots of each plant through the connecting structure between the planter trough 120 and the planter box 200, avoiding the time-consuming and labor-intensive drawbacks of traditional manual watering. This achieves automated irrigation and ensures the long-term operational stability of the green wall.

[0043] Please refer to Figure 3 In one embodiment, the wall 100 is provided with a drainage hole 130 at each of the plant troughs 120. When the plant box 200 is placed in the plant trough 120, the drainage hole 130 is connected to the connecting hole 210.

[0044] Specifically, when the planter box 200 is placed inside the planter trough 120, the connecting hole 210 at the bottom of the planter box 200 is connected to the drainage hole 130 of the wall 100, forming a complete water flow channel. Water flows down from the top of the wall 100 through the irrigation device 300, enters the planter box 200 along the connecting channel, and the drainage hole 130 ensures that water can flow smoothly out of the planter box 200 and into the next planter trough 120 below, preventing water from accumulating inside the planter box 200.

[0045] Please refer to Figure 3In one embodiment, the wall 100 has a water channel 110 above the top of the green plant trough 120, and the water from the irrigation device 300 flows downward into the green plant trough 120 through the water channel 110.

[0046] Specifically, the wall 100 has a water trough 110 at the top of each plant trough 120. The water trough 110 is located above the plant trough 120 and adjacent to the water source of the irrigation device 300. The irrigation device 300 delivers water to the water trough 110 through a water pipe. Guided by the water trough 110, the water flows evenly into the plant trough 120 below along the path of the water trough 110.

[0047] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 In one embodiment, the vertical green wall 10 includes a drainage box 400 located at the bottom of the plant box 200 to drain excess water and ensure that water does not accumulate at the plant roots. The wall 100 has a slot 140 below the bottom plant trough 120, and the drainage box 400 is detachably secured within the slot 140.

[0048] Specifically, a drainage box 400 is installed at the bottom of each planter box 200 to drain excess water and ensure that water does not accumulate at the plant roots. The wall 100 has a slot 140 below the bottommost planter trough 120, through which the drainage box 400 can be disassembled and installed. The design of the drainage box 400 matches the slot 140, allowing it to easily snap into place, ensuring a stable and secure installation, and facilitating future cleaning, maintenance, or replacement.

[0049] Please refer to Figure 2 In one embodiment, the irrigation device 300 includes a control box 310, a main pipe 320, and a plurality of branch pipes 330. The control box 310 is connected to an external water supply device and is used to control the opening and closing of the water flow. The main pipe 320 is connected to the control box 310. The plurality of branch pipes 330 are all connected to the main pipe 320, and each branch pipe 330 is located above a water trough 110.

[0050] Specifically, the control box 310 is connected to an external water supply device to control the opening and closing of the water flow, ensuring that the irrigation system operates as needed. The main pipe 320 is connected to the control box 310 and serves as the main water supply pipe, delivering water to multiple branch pipes 330. Each branch pipe 330 is connected to the main pipe 320 and is located above the water trough 110. Through the branch pipes 330, water can flow evenly into each water trough 110, ensuring that water is distributed to the plant boxes 200 in each planter trough 120.

[0051] Please refer to Figure 2 In one embodiment, the irrigation device 300 further includes a plurality of solenoid valves 340 and a plurality of spray structures 350. The plurality of solenoid valves 340 are respectively disposed on one of the branch pipes 330, and can independently control the water flow of each branch pipe 330 according to the signal of the control box 310. The plurality of spray structures 350 are respectively disposed below one of the solenoid valves 340 and facing into one of the water troughs 110 to ensure that the water flow can flow smoothly to the green plant box 200.

[0052] Specifically, each branch pipe 330 is equipped with a solenoid valve 340, which independently controls the water flow in that branch pipe 330 according to the signal from the control box 310. The solenoid valve 340 is located on the branch pipe 330 and can open or close the water flow as needed by the irrigation system, thereby precisely controlling the water volume of each branch pipe 330. Below each solenoid valve 340 is a water spray structure 350, which faces the corresponding water trough 110 to ensure that the water flows smoothly from the branch pipe 330 and is distributed into the plant boxes 200 in the plant trough 120.

[0053] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 In one embodiment, the vertical green wall 10 further includes a support frame 500, which is L-shaped, and the wall 100 is mounted on the support frame 500. The control box 310 is mounted on the support frame 500.

[0054] Specifically, the L-shaped support frame 500 provides robust support for the wall 100 and helps distribute its weight, ensuring the stability of the vertical green wall 10 during installation and use. The L-shaped design of the support frame 500 allows the vertical green wall 10 to not only be installed securely vertically but also provides better stability at its connection with the ground, ensuring long-term stable use. The control box 310 is located at the top of the support frame 500 for top-down watering.

[0055] Please refer to Figure 1 In one embodiment, the vertical green wall 10 includes a side decorative panel 600, which is vertically disposed on the side of the wall 100 away from the supporting frame 500 to cover the side of the wall 100.

[0056] Specifically, the decorative panel 600 is vertically disposed on the side of the wall 100 away from the supporting frame 500, and is used to cover the side of the wall 100. The side decorative panel 600 is fixed to the side of the wall 100 by a suitable connection method, which can effectively conceal the exposed parts and structural components of the wall 100 and provide a more aesthetically pleasing appearance.
