[0031] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0032] It should be noted that the terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the exemplary embodiments according to this application. As used herein, the singular form is intended to include the plural form as well, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. Furthermore, it should be understood that when the terms "comprising" and / or "including" are used in this specification, they indicate the presence of features, steps, operations, devices, components, and / or combinations thereof.

[0033] Please see Figures 1-9 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0034] An ecological green wall includes a base plate 1. A supporting frame assembly 2 is fixedly connected to the front end of the base plate 1. A lifting assembly 3 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the supporting frame assembly 2. A counterweight water supply mechanism 4 is fixedly connected to one end of the lifting assembly 3, and a planting box 5 is fixedly connected to the other end of the lifting assembly 3. The lifting assembly 3 includes an upper support base 31. A support wheel 32 is rotatably connected inside the upper support base 31 via a connecting shaft. A lower support base 33 is installed below the upper support base 31. An adjusting wheel 34 is rotatably connected inside the lower support base 33 via a connecting shaft. A collection box 35 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the lower support base 33. A grooved cavity tube 36 is connected through the bottom end of the collection box 35. A connecting inclined seat 37 is fixedly connected to the planting box 5. A conveying mechanism 38 slides between the support wheel 32 and the adjusting wheel 34. The counterweight water replenishment mechanism 4 includes a connecting cover 41. A water bucket 42 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the connecting cover 41. A piston disc 43 is slidably connected to the inner side of the water bucket 42. An adjusting screw 44 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the piston disc 43. A spiral groove 45 is opened on the inner side of the connecting cover 41. A connecting plate 46 is fixedly connected to the top end of the inner wall of the water bucket 42. A conveying hole 47 is opened on one side of the upper surface of the connecting plate 46. One end of the conveying mechanism 38 is fixedly connected to the top end of the connecting cover 41, and the other end of the conveying mechanism 38 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the upper support seat 31.

[0035] As a further implementation of this solution, the conveying mechanism 38 includes a rubber belt 381 as a basic traction component, used in conjunction with the support wheel 32 and the adjusting wheel 34 to achieve the lifting and lowering of the planting box 5. A steel wire rope 382 is fixedly connected inside the rubber belt 381 to compensate for the problem that the rubber belt 381 has sufficient toughness but limited strength. A conveying hose 383 is fixedly connected above the rubber belt 381. The conveying hose 383 moves synchronously with the rubber belt 381. A rubber support plate 384 is fixedly connected inside the conveying hose 383. A water inlet hole 385 is opened on the surface of the rubber support plate 384. This setting of the rubber support plate 384 further avoids the conveying hose 383 from being squeezed and deformed. The water inlet hole 385 is triangular in shape. By utilizing fluid mechanics, the water flow can form a vortex to flush the pipe wall, reduce the deposition of impurities, and ensure smooth water replenishment. A water outlet hole 386 is opened on the side of the conveying hose 383 near the collection box 35. Water droplets from the conveying hose 383 fall into the collection box 35 through the water outlet hole 386.

[0036] As a further implementation of this solution, the rear end face of the rubber belt 381 is a planar structure. The rubber belt 381 rotates and cooperates with the support wheel 32 and the adjusting wheel 34 respectively. The length of the steel wire rope 382 is adapted to the length of the rubber belt 381. This is to make it fit more closely with the support wheel 32 and the adjusting wheel 34. The larger contact area makes the friction stable, avoids transmission slippage, and makes the planting box 5 rise and fall smoothly.

[0037] As a further implementation of this scheme, a water outlet groove 39 is provided at the bottom of the grooved cavity pipe 36. The water flows through the water outlet groove 39 to the inclined surface of the connecting inclined seat 37. One end of the conveying hose 383 extends into the interior of the connecting cover 41. The conveying hose 383 is connected to the water bucket 42 through the connecting cover 41, thus forming a closed-loop water circuit.

[0038] As a further implementation of this solution, both sides of the outer wall of the connecting cover 41 are flat structures, and a counterweight 7 is installed on the upper part of the outer wall of the connecting cover 41. By adding or removing the counterweight 7, different planting balance needs can be met. The bottom of the adjusting screw 44 is threadedly connected to the transmission seat 48. The transmission seat 48 can apply pressure to the piston disc 43 through the adjusting screw 44. A water injection pipe 49 is fixed through one end of the top of the water bucket 42 to facilitate water injection into the water bucket 42.

[0039] As a further implementation of this solution, the supporting frame assembly 2 includes a light steel keel shell 21. A positioning slide rail 22 is fixedly connected to the top of the inner wall of the light steel keel shell 21. A connecting seat 23 is slidably connected inside the positioning slide rail 22. The connecting seat 23 is fixedly connected to the lower support seat 33 by bolts. An auxiliary rail 24 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner wall of the light steel keel shell 21. The auxiliary rail 24 is slidably connected to the connecting inclined seat 37. A support rod 25 is fixedly connected to one side of the top of the inner wall of the light steel keel shell 21. An auxiliary wheel 26 is rotatably connected to the outside of the support rod 25. The auxiliary wheel 26 is slidably engaged with the rubber belt 381 to correct the transmission path, so that the counterweight water replenishment mechanism 4 can move up and down stably.

[0040] As a further implementation of this solution, a decorative panel 6 is fixedly connected to the front end of the light steel keel shell 21 by bolts. The decorative panel 6 is located behind the planting box 5, and there is a gap between the decorative panel 6 and the planting box 5. A hidden door 8 is fixedly connected to one side of the bottom of the decorative panel 6 by bolts, which facilitates the maintenance of the counterweight water replenishment mechanism 4.

[0041] Workflow: Before using this duplex ecological green wall, first fill the water tank 42 with water through the water injection pipe 49, and add a counterweight 7 of appropriate weight to the outer wall of the connecting cover 41 according to actual needs. At this time, the counterweight water replenishment mechanism 4 forms a downward pulling force on the conveying mechanism 38 due to the action of the counterweight 7. Since the rubber belt 381 of the conveying mechanism 38 slides with the support wheel 32 and the adjusting wheel 34, according to the physical formula F=1 / 2G, based on the force-saving principle of the pulley system, where F is the pulling force and G is the total weight of the counterweight water replenishment mechanism 4 and the counterweight 7, this design can effectively save the pulling force. When the counterweight water replenishment mechanism 4 and the planting box 5 are in equilibrium, the transmission seat 48 is away from the bottom of the light steel keel shell 21. At this time, the extension length of the transmission seat 48 can be adjusted according to the actual situation to make the system adjustment more flexible. At the same time, the planting box 5 is in a high position.

[0042] As the plants in the planting box 5 absorb water and the water evaporates naturally, the weight of the planting box 5 will gradually decrease, becoming lighter than its original balanced state. At this time, the counterweight water replenishment mechanism 4 will move downward due to gravity until the transmission seat 48 contacts the bottom of the light steel keel shell 21. Because the piston disc 43 can slide up and down inside the water bucket 42, under the pressure of the transmission seat 48, the piston disc 43 will squeeze the water inside the water bucket 42, causing the water to be transported upward through the conveying hole 47. During the water transport process, the conveying hole 47 will contact the spiral groove 45, causing the water to form a certain vortex. This vortex can effectively reduce the blockage of the conveying hose 383 by impurities in the water, ensuring the stable transport of the conveying hose 383.

[0043] After water enters the delivery hose 383 through the connecting cover 41, it is squeezed out through the water outlet 386 under the pressure inside the delivery hose 383 and enters the collection box 35. Then, the water flows through the water outlet 39 at the bottom of the grooved cavity pipe 36 to the connecting inclined seat 37, and finally flows to the planting box 5 to replenish the green plants. As the weight of the planting box 5 increases, the planting box 5 will move down, while the counterweight water replenishment mechanism 4 will move up away from the ground. This cycle repeats, realizing dynamic automatic water replenishment of the green plants in the planting box 5. There is no need for frequent manual climbing operations, which saves manpower and time and eliminates the safety hazards caused by climbing operations.

[0044] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
