Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of building greening technology, and in particular to a building facade greening structure. Background Technology
[0002] Building facade greening is an important method of green building construction, playing a positive role in improving the urban ecological environment, reducing the heat island effect, purifying the air, and beautifying the building's appearance. Currently, building facade greening technologies mainly include natural climbing and formal container planting. Natural climbing wall greening is limited by factors such as wall material, orientation, and color, making it unsuitable for multi-story and high-rise curtain wall surfaces. Formal container planting offers a limited variety of forms, lacks aesthetic appeal, and cannot be integrated with the diverse design requirements of building facades. It also faces problems such as difficulty in supporting the weight of soil and plants or potential leakage. Furthermore, irrigation, maintenance, and drainage issues for high-rise building facade greening, as well as its integration with the building structure, are also significant challenges.
[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, the inventors believe that when designing green facades for buildings, a landscape greening structure should be considered that can be applied to multi-story and high-rise curtain wall surfaces to effectively support the weight of soil and plants, solve irrigation and drainage problems, be rationally integrated with the building, and be suitable for diverse facade designs, so as to meet the application needs of green building construction and urban vertical greening. Utility Model Content
[0004] This application provides a building facade landscape greening structure that solves the problems of monotonous form, lack of aesthetic appeal, load-bearing risks, leakage problems, and difficulty in irrigation and maintenance in the three-dimensional greening design of multi-story and high-rise curtain wall facades.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A building facade landscaping greening structure, characterized by comprising: reinforced concrete of the building facade, keel, aluminum panels, planting troughs, an automatic irrigation system, a water supply system, and a drainage system; the planting troughs are connected to the reinforced concrete walls of the building facade, and the aluminum panels are connected to the outside of the planting troughs via the keel, forming a zigzag shape on the building facade; the planting troughs are equipped with an automatic irrigation system, including drip irrigation pipes, drip irrigation pipe fixing frames, and a soil moisture sensor; the soil moisture sensor monitors soil moisture, starting irrigation when the moisture level is below a set value and stopping irrigation when the moisture level is above the set value; the automatic irrigation system is connected to both the water supply system and the drainage system, receiving water through the water supply system to drip irrigate the plants in the planting troughs, and draining excess water through the drainage system.
[0007] By adopting the above technical solutions, the zigzag shape of the building facade is combined with the planting trough, which enhances the aesthetics of the facade. The automatic irrigation system can accurately control the amount of irrigation water based on real-time monitoring of soil moisture, avoiding waste of water resources. At the same time, it can reduce the need for manual management, saving labor and time costs.
[0008] Preferably, the planting trough is 8600mm long, 1430mm wide, and 620mm high, and consists of geotextile, cement mortar, waterproof coating, reinforced concrete slab, small ceramsite, large ceramsite, and planting soil from the outside in.
[0009] By adopting the above technical solutions, planting troughs can collect rainwater, reduce rainwater runoff rate, and alleviate urban stormwater drainage pressure. Soil and expanded clay aggregate can absorb and store rainwater, slowing down rainwater outflow, reducing flood risk, and providing excellent soil protection and moisture retention, which is beneficial for plant root growth. The use of geotextiles, cement mortar, and waterproof coatings effectively prevents water from penetrating into the structure of the planting trough, protecting it from water erosion.
[0010] Preferably, the planting trough is made of concrete and connected to the reinforced concrete wall of the building facade. The keel is connected to the planting trough and the reinforced concrete of the building facade, and the aluminum plate is adjacent to the outside of the keel.
[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the concrete-poured planting trough and the reinforced concrete wall connecting the building facade form a solid structure with high load-bearing capacity and stability.
[0012] Preferably, the aluminum plate is zigzag-shaped and has a thickness of 20mm.
[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, compared with aluminum plates of uniform thickness, the zigzag shape achieves the same structural strength with less material usage, thus reducing the overall weight. The zigzag shape gives the aluminum plate a unique appearance, making it more visually appealing and modern.
[0014] Preferably, the drip irrigation pipes are spaced 0.2m apart, and the drip irrigation pipe fixing brackets are spaced 1.5m apart.
[0015] By adopting the above technical solutions and rationally setting the spacing between drip irrigation pipes and fixing frames, the amount of water used and distributed can be better controlled, thereby saving water resources and operating and maintenance costs.
[0016] Preferably, the water supply system includes an air vent valve, a copper gate valve, a solenoid valve, a filter, and a pressure gauge, and is connected to the irrigation system; the water supply system is located inside the building and is connected to the building's internal water supply pipes.
[0017] By adopting the above technical solutions, valves such as copper gate valves and solenoid valves can accurately control water flow, ensuring that water flow and pressure are effectively regulated in the system to meet the needs of the irrigation system; the water supply system is placed inside the building for convenient use, maintenance and repair.
[0018] Preferably, the drainage system includes a main drain pipe and a floor drain, the floor drain being connected to the main drain pipe, the main drain pipe being connected to the building's internal drainage system and rainwater pipe, and one side of the main drain pipe passing through the reinforced concrete of the building's exterior facade and connecting to the drainage riser of the building's internal drainage system.
[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the main drainage pipe, the floor drain, and the connection with the building's internal drainage system and rainwater pipe form a complete drainage system. The installation of the main drainage pipe and the floor drain can effectively prevent water from accumulating or leaking inside the building.
[0020] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0021] 1. This utility model combines the folded shape of aluminum plates on the building facade with planting troughs, which can add a unique landscape greening effect to the building and enhance the aesthetics and visual appeal of the facade.
[0022] 2. This utility model forms a sturdy structure by connecting the planting trough and the reinforced concrete wall. At the same time, it uses lightweight zigzag aluminum plates, which have high load-bearing capacity and stability, reducing the overall weight and solving the existing load-bearing risks. In addition, the planting trough, which is made of concrete and connected to the wall, is equipped with multiple layers of waterproof materials and an efficient drainage system, which solves the problem of leakage in the planting trough.
[0023] 3. This utility model, through an automatic irrigation system, can achieve precise irrigation of plants in a timely, quantitative, and fixed-point manner based on real-time monitoring of soil moisture, thereby improving water resource utilization efficiency, reducing the cost and workload of manual maintenance, and enhancing the efficiency and convenience of greening management.
