Detailed Implementation
[0017] Example 1
[0018] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this utility model proposes a vertical garden structure, including a stabilizing base 1, an irrigation mechanism, a placement mechanism, and a planting box 6. A column 2 is installed at the top of the stabilizing base 1. The irrigation mechanism is mounted on the column 2 and consists of a rotating pipe 3 rotatably connected to the inner cavity of the column 2, multiple irrigation nozzles 301 installed at the output end of the rotating pipe 3, and a water inlet pipe 303 rotatably connected to the input end of the rotating pipe 3. A driving assembly 302 is installed inside the inner cavity of the column 2, driving the rotating pipe 3 to rotate. The driving assembly 302 consists of a motor driving a drive gear and a driven gear meshing with the drive gear. A reducer is installed between the motor and the drive gear, and the driven gear is installed on the outer wall of the rotating pipe 3. One end of the pipe 303 extends to the outside of the column 2, and the water inlet pipe 303 is installed on the side wall of the column 2; multiple sets of placement mechanisms are provided, and multiple sets of placement mechanisms are evenly and staggered from top to bottom along the outer circumference of the column 2. Multiple sets of ventilation openings 502 are evenly provided on the side wall of the placement mechanism, and an overflow outlet 504 is provided at the bottom of the placement mechanism. The overflow outlet 504 in the lowest set of placement mechanisms on the outer circumference of the column 2 corresponds to the stabilizing seat 1, which facilitates the collection of excess irrigation water and avoids outflow and pollution. The stabilizing seat 1 can be cleaned regularly; multiple sets of planting boxes 6 are provided, and the planting boxes 6 are detachably connected to the corresponding placement mechanisms. A breathable net 601 is provided at the bottom of the planting box 6, and a handle is provided on the outer wall of the planting box 6.
[0019] Furthermore, the rotating pipe 3 is L-shaped to facilitate driving multiple sets of irrigation nozzles 301 to irrigate multiple sets of planting boxes 6. The water inlet pipe 303 is L-shaped, with its input end connected to an external water supply mechanism and its output end rotatably connected to the input end of the rotating pipe 3.
[0020] Furthermore, the placement mechanism includes a sleeve 4, a placement seat 5, and a support frame 505; the sleeve 4 is slidably fitted onto the outer circumferential surface of the column 2 and is limited to the side wall of the column 2 by bolts; two sets of placement seats 5 are provided, and the two sets of placement seats 5 are symmetrically installed on the outer circumferential surface of the sleeve 4, and an opening 501 is opened on the placement seat 5 at the end away from the sleeve 4, and a ventilation opening 502 is provided on the four side walls of the placement seat 5; the support frame 505 is installed on the inner wall of the placement seat 5, and the top surface of the support frame 505 is at the same level as the bottom surface of the opening 501; the bottom end of the planting box 6 is slidably connected to the opening 501 and the support frame 505; the left and right side walls of the planting box 6 are slidably connected to the inner wall of the placement seat 5; and the front end of the planting box 6 abuts against the end of the placement seat 5 that is close to the sleeve 4.
[0021] Furthermore, four sets of guide grooves 201 are evenly distributed on the outer circumference of the column 2, and two sets of guide blocks 401 are evenly installed on the inner wall of the sleeve 4. The guide blocks 401 are slidably connected to the guide grooves 201, and multiple sets of threaded grooves are evenly distributed on the guide grooves 201, which correspond to the bolts on the sleeve 4. Through the arrangement of the guide blocks 401 and the guide grooves 201, the placement seat 5 can only move up and down along the column 2 for adjustment, which facilitates the quick alignment and connection of the bolts on the sleeve 4 with the threaded grooves on the guide grooves 201, thereby improving the installation speed.
[0022] Furthermore, multiple sets of connecting pipes 503 are evenly installed at the bottom of the placement base 5, and overflow outlets 504 are distributed on the upper part of the outer circumference of the connecting pipes 503. The setting height of the vent 502 relative to the placement base 5 is higher than that of the overflow outlet 504 relative to the placement base 5, so as to prevent the water collected inside the placement base 5 from overflowing out along the vent 502, causing waste and pollution.
[0023] In this embodiment, after the sleeve 4 is fitted onto the outer wall of the column 2 and the guide block 401 slides along the guide groove 201 to a suitable position, the sleeve 4 is fixedly connected to the threaded groove at a suitable position on the guide groove 201 by bolts. Then, a set of placement mechanisms is installed on the column 2. In this way, other sets of placement mechanisms are evenly and alternately installed on the outer circumference of the column 2. The staggered distribution ensures that adjacent planting boxes 6 do not interfere with each other's light transmission, thus improving the growth rate. The planting box 6 with green plants is slid and pushed in along the opening 501 and the support frame 505 until the front end of the planting box 6 abuts against the end of the placement seat 5 that is close to the sleeve 4. When it is necessary to water the plants in the planting box 6, the external water supply mechanism is connected to the water inlet pipe 303. The controller starts the drive component 302 to drive the rotating pipe 3 to rotate along the column 2. The external water supply mechanism delivers water to the water inlet pipe 303. The water then enters the rotating pipe 3 and is finally distributed by multiple sets of watering nozzles. The water is sprayed from multiple rotating nozzles 301 onto the outer surface of the column 2, irrigating the planting boxes 6 and preventing them from drying out and reducing their growth rate. It should be noted that soil moisture sensors can be pre-embedded in the planting boxes 6 for real-time monitoring of soil moisture, facilitating timely irrigation. In addition to the rotating irrigation from the nozzles 301, water from the upper planting boxes 6 flows through the ventilation mesh 601 and support frame 505 into the bottom of the placement base 5. When the water accumulates to a certain level, excess water overflows through the overflow outlet 504 and flows downwards to be received by other planting boxes 6, ensuring that all planting boxes 6 are irrigated. The water accumulated inside the placement base 5 keeps the bottom of the planting boxes 6 moist, reducing the irrigation frequency. The ventilation opening 502 facilitates ventilation between the planting boxes 6 and their bottom, preventing mold growth in the soil at the bottom of the planting boxes 6 due to a sealed environment, thus preventing root rot and further improving plant survival rates.
[0024] Example 2
[0025] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the vertical garden structure proposed in this utility model, compared with the first embodiment, has a fixed seat 7 installed on the side wall of the placement seat 5 and below the opening 501. The fixed seat 7 is C-shaped, and an abutment seat 701 is slidably connected to the fixed seat 7. The abutment seat 701 is C-shaped and abuts against the planting box 6. The abutment seats 701 and the planting box 6 are both provided with anti-slip protrusions to increase the friction at the bottom and improve the installation stability. The bottom end of the abutment seat 701 is limited to the side wall of the placement seat 5 by bolts.
[0026] In this embodiment, when the front end of the planting box 6 abuts against the end of the placement seat 5 and close to the sleeve 4, the abutment seat 701 slides upward along the fixed seat 7 and the placement seat 5 until the abutment seat 701 slides against the outer wall of the planting box 6. The abutment seat 701 is then threadedly connected to the outer wall of the placement seat 5 by bolts, thereby stably positioning the planting box 6 on the placement seat 5.
[0027] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. Various changes can be made within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
