Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of landscape planting technology, specifically a landscape planting flower box structure. Background Technology

[0002] With the acceleration of urbanization, public spaces (such as streets, parks, and commercial areas) need to deploy greening facilities quickly. Flower boxes have become an ideal choice due to their mobility and modularity. Emerging scenarios such as rooftop greening and vertical greening place higher demands on lightweight and water-saving flower box structures. To address urban water shortages, it is necessary to reduce irrigation frequency through material design (such as water-retaining layers and drainage layers). Flower boxes need to adapt to extreme weather (such as high temperatures, heavy rain, and cold waves) and polluted environments (such as vehicle exhaust and industrial dust). The application of weather-resistant materials (such as preservative-treated wood, stainless steel, and composite materials) extends the lifespan of flower boxes.

[0003] In urban environments, available natural soil is limited, especially on paved surfaces (such as plazas, building rooftops, and balconies), where traditional planting methods are difficult to implement. Poor or polluted soil (such as excessive heavy metals or salinization) requires artificial improvement to meet the needs of plant growth. Traditional green spaces require frequent watering, fertilization, and weeding, resulting in high labor and water costs. Open soil is prone to weed growth, increasing management difficulty. Exposed soil is prone to dust, affecting air quality and the city's image. Planting a single type of plant or seasonal changes may lead to a monotonous landscape and a lack of sustainability.

[0004] During the growth process, plants may fall over. When plants fall over, they cannot perform photosynthesis normally, their growth is hindered, and in severe cases, they may die. Fallen plants may also pull on their roots, causing them to separate from the soil, affecting the absorption of water and nutrients. The plants' resistance to adverse conditions decreases, making them more susceptible to drought, diseases, or pests. After falling over, plants need to be manually straightened, re-secured, or replaced, increasing the workload and cost of maintenance. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a landscape planting flower box structure. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a landscape planting flower box structure to solve the problems in the background technology.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a landscape planting flower box structure, including a box body, with fixed seats fixedly connected to the four corners of the lower surface of the box body, a bottom plate fixedly connected to the lower end of the interior of the box body, a drainage layer provided at the upper end of the bottom plate, a nutrient soil layer provided at the upper end of the drainage layer, and a covering soil layer provided at the upper end of the nutrient soil layer, a partition fixedly connected to the interior of the box body, a connecting plate connected to the partition plate, a movable block engaged on the connecting plate, and a support frame fixedly connected to the movable block, and drainage grooves provided on the left and right sides of the lower end of the box body.

[0007] Preferably, the lower interior of the housing is provided with an inverted V-shaped structure, and the housing and partition are coated with an anti-corrosion coating.

[0008] Preferably, a mounting plate is fixedly connected to the lower outer side of the fixed base, and the mounting plate has a mounting groove, so that the fixed base can be installed through the mounting plate, and the device can be installed.

[0009] Preferably, the base plate is provided with through holes evenly distributed, the drainage layer is made of gravel, the nutrient soil layer is made of humus and perlite, and the cover soil layer is made of colored stones.

[0010] Preferably, a magnetic strip is fixedly connected to the back side of the connecting plate, and magnets that attract the magnetic strip are fixedly connected to both the box body and the partition plate, so that the connecting plate can be attracted by the magnets.

[0011] Preferably, the movable block is movably engaged with the connecting plate, and the connecting plate has a slot that cooperates with the movable block so as to move the movable block.

[0012] Preferably, the support frame is circular in shape, with an opening at one end that is V-shaped, allowing the plant to be supported.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] It supports quick installation or removal of the support structure, making it easy to adjust the layout according to the season or plant type, facilitating transplanting or replacing plants, reducing maintenance complexity, and the drainage channel design accelerates rainwater discharge, preventing water accumulation inside the box and reducing the risk of disease. The bottom plate isolates the soil from the bottom of the box, extending the service life of the box.

[0015] The magnetic strips connect to the magnets on the box and partitions in a "stick and use" manner, requiring no screws or tools to fix the connecting plate and moving block. This allows users to quickly adjust the position of the support frame or change the plant layout, making it especially suitable for scenarios requiring frequent maintenance (such as seasonal plant replacement). The magnetic connection not only fixes the support frame but also allows for a certain degree of manual adjustment (such as rotation or displacement), accommodating different plant heights and tilt angles. The moving block can be moved to a suitable position, and the plant can be placed inside the support frame to support it and prevent it from falling over during growth. Attached Figure Description

[0022] 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.

[0023] Please see Figure 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution: a landscape planting flower box structure, including a box body 1, with fixed seats 2 fixedly connected to the four corners of the lower surface of the box body 1, a bottom plate 3 fixedly connected to the lower end of the interior of the box body 1, and a drainage layer 4 provided at the upper end of the bottom plate 3, a nutrient soil layer 5 provided at the upper end of the drainage layer 4, and a soil covering layer 6 provided at the upper end of the nutrient soil layer 5, a partition 7 fixedly connected to the interior of the box body 1, and a connecting plate 8 connected to the partition 7, a movable block 9 engaged on the connecting plate 8, and a support frame 10 fixedly connected to the movable block 9, with drainage grooves 11 opened on both the left and right sides of the lower end of the box body 1.

[0024] The lower interior of the box 1 has an inverted V-shaped structure. The box 1 and the partition 7 are coated with an anti-corrosion coating. The lower outer side of the fixing base 2 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate, and the mounting plate has a mounting groove. The inverted V-shaped design of the lower interior of the box 1 can naturally guide the accumulated water to the drainage channel 11, avoid water accumulation in dead corners, and reduce the risk of root rot. It is especially suitable for rainy or humid environments. The inverted V-shaped structure makes the bottom of the box 1 form a conical space, which is convenient for stacking the drainage layer 4 and placing the bottom plate 3. At the same time, it reduces the volume occupied by the soil. The lightweight design reduces transportation and installation costs. The surface of the box 1 and the partition 7 are coated with an anti-corrosion coating (such as epoxy resin or galvanized layer), which can resist the corrosion of wood or metal by moisture, acid and alkali substances and ultraviolet rays. The mounting plate and the mounting groove (such as long strip or round groove) under the fixing base 2 can quickly fix the flower box with bolts, expansion screws or buckles.

[0025] The base plate 3 has evenly spaced perforations. The drainage layer 4 is made of gravel, the nutrient soil layer 5 is made of humus and perlite, and the topsoil layer 6 is made of colored stones. The evenly spaced perforations in the base plate 3 ensure that excess water in the drainage layer 4 can quickly seep down, while allowing roots to extend downwards to obtain oxygen, preventing soil compaction, and improving root health. The drainage layer 4, made of gravel, forms a permeable layer that effectively isolates roots from waterlogging, preventing root rot and reducing maintenance difficulty. It is especially suitable for low-maintenance gardening or public greening projects. The humus is rich in organic matter and provides slow-release nutrients; the perlite enhances water retention and aeration, suitable for most plant growth, reducing the use of chemical fertilizers and promoting robust plant growth. The topsoil layer 6 (such as volcanic rock or pebbles) covers the surface soil, reducing water evaporation, inhibiting weed growth, and enhancing the aesthetics of the landscape. It does not require frequent watering, reducing maintenance costs. The colors of the colored stones can be matched with the colors of the plants to enhance the visual depth.

[0026] A magnetic strip is fixedly connected to the back of the connecting plate 8. Magnets that attract the magnetic strip are fixedly connected to both the box body 1 and the partition 7. The movable block 9 is movably engaged with the connecting plate 8, and the connecting plate 8 has a slot that cooperates with the movable block 9. The support frame 10 is circular in structure, with an opening at one end in a V-shape. The magnetic connection can fix the support frame 10 and also allow for a certain degree of manual adjustment (such as rotation or displacement) to adapt to different plant heights and tilt angles. This avoids the rigidity of traditional fixed support structures (such as screws and glue), flexibly matching the plant growth needs. The magnetic connection replaces physical buckles or threaded connections, reducing wear and tear on the box body 1 and partition 7 from frequent disassembly and assembly, extending service life, reducing maintenance costs, and improving the overall durability of the flower box. The movable block 9 is tightly engaged with the connecting plate 8 through the slot and can move along... The slot slides and is fixed in a specific position, allowing users to flexibly adjust the support points of the support frame 10 according to the plant's height or growth direction, avoiding damage to the plant caused by blind support. The slot design allows the moving block 9 to be adjusted horizontally to adapt to different plant shapes (such as tilted, curved, or clump-forming plants). It can meet the support needs of various plant types (such as climbing flowers and tall herbs) without changing the support structure. The circular support frame 10 provides support, distributing the plant's weight and avoiding single-point pressure that could cause stem indentation or breakage. It is especially suitable for plants with fragile stems (such as sunflowers and reeds), enhancing their resistance to lodging in windy and rainy weather. The V-shaped opening design makes it easier for the support frame 10 to fit onto the plant stem, reducing the difficulty of operation. At the same time, it avoids the opening being too small to constrict the stem or too large to cause unstable support, protecting the plant surface and preventing stem friction injury or water loss.

[0027] Working principle: Drainage layer 4, nutrient soil layer 5, and covering soil layer 6 are laid in sequence inside the box 1. Planting areas are divided according to plant type by partition 7. The position of support frame 10 is adjusted and fixed. Water permeates to drainage layer 4, and excess water is discharged through drainage channel 11. The height of support frame 10 is adjusted by moving block 9 and magnetic strip, and the roots of the plant are locked inside the support frame 10 to adapt to plant growth. The magnetic strip can quickly remove support frame 10. The partition 7 can be used to replace soil or plants in different areas. The anti-corrosion coating and drainage design reduce the risk of corrosion of box 1 and extend service life. Covering soil layer 6 and drainage layer 4 work together to reduce maintenance frequency (such as reducing watering and weeding).

[0028] The standard parts used in this embodiment can be purchased directly from the market, while the non-standard structural parts described in the specification and drawings can be processed without any doubt based on existing technical common sense. At the same time, the connection methods of each component adopt mature conventional methods in the existing technology, and the machinery, parts and equipment all adopt conventional models in the existing technology, so they will not be described in detail here.

[0029] 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.
