Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of building greening technology, and in particular to a prefabricated planting box for rooftop greening. Background Technology
[0002] Roof greening refers to the greening construction process of creating a green landscape on the roof of a building by selecting plants suitable for its structural characteristics and ecological environment. Currently, the main method of roof greening is to cover the building roof with prefabricated planting boxes containing plants. However, the planting boxes used in current roof greening are all one-piece structures. When one part is damaged, the entire planting box needs to be replaced, resulting in high costs and losses. Furthermore, when large-scale plant replacement is required, the plants in the boxes must be removed one by one and replanted, which is too labor-intensive. In rainy weather, the ventilation holes at the bottom of the planting boxes have limited drainage capacity, causing rainwater to easily overflow and resulting in soil loss. Moreover, because the planting boxes are installed sequentially and closely together, overflowing rainwater will spill into adjacent boxes, failing to effectively drain rainwater and causing the plants to be soaked in rainwater for extended periods, affecting their growth. Utility Model Content
[0003] This utility model relates to a prefabricated planting box for rooftop greening, which solves the problem that under rainy conditions, the ventilation holes at the bottom of the planting box have limited drainage capacity for rainwater, which easily leads to rainwater overflow and loss of cultivation soil. Moreover, since the planting boxes on the roof are installed one after another, the overflowing rainwater will spill into the adjacent planting boxes, making it impossible to effectively drain the rainwater.
[0004] This utility model provides a prefabricated planting box for rooftop greening, specifically comprising: a main box body, the main box body having a square block structure, and a storage slot having a square groove structure on the top surface of the main box body; a support plate being fixedly installed at the four corners of the inner end face of the storage slot; a secondary box body having a square block structure inserted inside the storage slot, the side length of the secondary box body being consistent with the side length of the storage slot; when the bottom end face of the secondary box body is in contact with the top faces of the four support plates, the top face of the secondary box body is at the same horizontal plane as the top face of the main box body; four rings being fixedly installed in a circular array on the top face of the secondary box body; and a cultivation trough having a square groove structure on the top face of the secondary box body, the cultivation trough being filled with cultivation soil.
[0005] Furthermore, the bottom surface of the inner end of the cultivation trough is provided with nine matching openings that penetrate the bottom surface of the sub-box body in a uniformly distributed manner; a square cotton cloth sheet is laid on the bottom surface of the inner end of the cultivation trough, and the side length of the cotton cloth sheet is consistent with the side length of the cultivation trough.
[0006] Furthermore, a drainage cotton strip is fixedly connected to the bottom end face of the cotton sheet relative to each of the nine mating openings; the nine drainage cotton strips are inserted through the nine mating openings respectively; when the bottom end face of the sub-box body is in contact with the top face of the four support plates, the bottom end face of the nine drainage cotton strips is in contact with the bottom end face of the storage tank.
[0007] Furthermore, a flow-guiding groove with a square groove structure is provided on the bottom end face of the main box body; a flow-guiding opening connected to the flow-guiding groove is provided on the bottom of each of the four side end faces of the main box body, and the height of the flow-guiding opening is consistent with the depth of the flow-guiding groove.
[0008] Furthermore, a square-shaped guide groove is provided at the adjacent edge of the inner top surface of the guide groove, and the depth of the guide groove is half the height of the main box; an overflow prevention opening is provided on each of the four side surfaces of the inner end of the storage slot, which is connected to the guide groove, and the inner top surface of the overflow prevention opening is at the same level as the top surface of the support plate.
[0009] This utility model provides a prefabricated planting box for rooftop greening, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0010] This practical planting box adopts a split structure design of main box and sub-box, replacing the traditional one-piece planting box structure. This is beneficial because if a part is damaged, only the corresponding main box or sub-box needs to be replaced, without the need for overall disassembly and replacement, thus reducing cost and waste. Moreover, due to the split structure, when it is necessary to change the green plants, only the sub-box with different green plants needs to be replaced, which is more convenient.
[0011] This utility model, through the combined use of cotton cloth sheets and drainage strips, not only provides the water source needed for plant growth but also facilitates the guidance of rainwater dripping into the cultivation trough during rainy weather, preventing water accumulation. Furthermore, the combined use of drainage grooves, drainage openings, overflow prevention openings, and drainage channels prevents the water stored in the storage trough from overflowing. When the water level exceeds the overflow prevention opening, excess water in the storage trough can be discharged through the overflow prevention opening, preventing water from overflowing into the cultivation trough. The concealed design of the drainage grooves, drainage openings, and drainage channels ensures that when water flows out through the overflow prevention opening, there is no obstruction between the main boxes installed sequentially on the roof, ensuring that excess water can be discharged without hindrance.

[0027] This invention proposes a prefabricated planting box for rooftop greening, comprising: a main box body 1, which is a square block structure, with a storage slot 103 of a square groove structure on the top surface of the main box body 1; a support plate 104 is fixedly installed at the four corners of the inner end face of the storage slot 103; a secondary box body 2 of a square block structure is inserted into the storage slot 103, the side length of the secondary box body 2 being the same as the side length of the storage slot 103; when the bottom end face of the secondary box body 2 is in contact with the top faces of the four support plates 104, the top face of the secondary box body 2 is at the same horizontal plane as the top face of the main box body 1; four rings 201 are fixedly installed in a circular array on the top face of the secondary box body 2; a square groove structure is provided on the top face of the secondary box body 2. The cultivation trough 204 has a trough structure and contains cultivation soil 202. Nine evenly distributed openings 205 are provided on the bottom inner surface of the cultivation trough 204, penetrating the bottom surface of the sub-box 2. A square-shaped cotton cloth sheet 206 is laid on the bottom inner surface of the cultivation trough 204, with the side length of the cotton cloth sheet 206 matching that of the cultivation trough 204. A drainage cotton strip 203 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the cotton cloth sheet 206 relative to each of the nine openings 205. The nine drainage cotton strips 203 pass through the nine openings 205. When the bottom surface of the sub-box 2 is in contact with the top surfaces of the four support plates 104, the bottom surfaces of the nine drainage cotton strips 203 are in contact with the bottom inner surface of the storage trough 103.
[0028] In this embodiment, a flow-guiding groove 101 with a square groove structure is provided on the bottom end face of the main box body 1; a flow-guiding opening 102 connected to the flow-guiding groove 101 is provided on the bottom of each of the four side end faces of the main box body 1, and the height of the flow-guiding opening 102 is consistent with the depth of the flow-guiding groove 101; a flow-guiding groove 106 with a square frame groove structure is provided on the adjacent edge of the inner top surface of the flow-guiding groove 101, and the depth of the flow-guiding groove 106 is half the height of the main box body 1; an overflow-proof opening 105 connected to the flow-guiding groove 106 is provided on each of the four side end faces of the inner end of the storage slot 103, and the inner top surface of the overflow-proof opening 105 is at the same level as the top surface of the support plate 104.
[0029] The working principle of this embodiment:
[0030] During the construction of roof greening, select the appropriate number of main boxes 1 according to the specifications and dimensions of the roof, and arrange them on the roof to cover the roof.
[0031] Before the secondary box 2 is placed into the storage slot 103 of the main box 1, water for the growth of the plants is added to the storage slot 103 of the main box 1. Then, the secondary box 2 is placed into the storage slot 103, and the secondary box 2 is limited and supported by the support plate 104 to achieve the matching installation of the secondary box 2 and the main box 1. When it is necessary to separate the secondary box 2 from the main box 1, the secondary box 2 can be easily removed from the storage slot 103 by using a tool to hook and engage with the ring 201 for easy replacement or cleaning.
[0032] The green plants are planted in the cultivation soil 202. When the bottom surface of the sub-box 2 is in contact with the top surface of the four support plates 104, the bottom surfaces of the nine drainage cotton strips 203 are in contact with the bottom surface of the inner end of the storage tank 103. Therefore, the drainage cotton strips 203 absorb and conduct the water in the storage tank 103, and conduct it to the cultivation soil 202 through the cotton cloth 206, so as to provide the green plants planted in the cultivation soil 202 with the water needed for growth.
[0033] In rainy conditions, when rainwater drips into the cultivation trough 204, it will seep through the cultivation soil 202 and flow into the storage tank 103 through the cotton cloth 206 and the drainage cotton strip 203. When the water level in the storage tank 103 reaches the overflow prevention opening 105, the water above the overflow prevention opening 105 will flow into the guide channel 106 through the overflow prevention opening 105, and then flow into the guide matching groove 101 along the guide channel 106. Then, it will flow out of the range of the guide matching groove 101 through the guide opening 102, thereby achieving the overflow prevention function and preventing water from overflowing from the cultivation soil 202 and causing waterlogging damage to the planted green plants. Furthermore, through the coordinated opening of the guide matching groove 101, the guide opening 102, and the guide channel 106, when the water flows out through the overflow prevention opening 105, there will be no overflow obstruction between the main boxes 1 installed in sequence on the roof, ensuring that excess water can be discharged without obstruction.
