Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of landscaping and landscape design technology, specifically to an integrated design structure of artificial hills and vertical greening. Background Technology
[0002] Vertical greening systems are a technology that increases urban green space by planting plants on vertical surfaces (such as walls, fences, columns, etc.). It can not only beautify the environment, but also improve air quality, regulate temperature, reduce noise, and enhance biodiversity.
[0003] Traditional vertical greening systems mostly use fixed planting troughs or wall-climbing plants, which have the following problems:
[0004] Non-adjustability: The planting troughs are fixed in position, making it impossible to adjust the layout or change the plant combination according to landscape needs, and making it difficult to adapt to diverse scenarios;
[0005] Low irrigation efficiency: It relies on manual watering or complex drip irrigation systems, resulting in low water resource utilization and the inability to recycle rainwater.
[0006] Maintenance difficulties: The planting trough and support structure are designed as an integrated unit, and the entire structure needs to be replaced if damaged, which is costly and complicated to construct.
[0007] Landscape monotony: Traditional rockeries are arranged separately from greenery, lacking an organic combination of ecology and aesthetics.
[0008] To address the aforementioned issues, this utility model proposes a modular, recirculating water supply integrated structure for artificial mountains and vertical greening. The design of detachable planting boxes enables flexible layout, and gravity water supply and water pump circulation system improve water resource utilization efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0009] In view of the above-mentioned shortcomings of the existing technology, the present invention provides an integrated design structure for artificial mountains and vertical greening, which can effectively solve the problems mentioned in the background technology.
[0010] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0011] This utility model provides an integrated design structure for artificial rockery and vertical greening, including an L-shaped vertical plate. A water inlet is installed on the top of the L-shaped vertical plate, and a filter screen is detachably installed at the top inlet of the water inlet. A water receiving box is fixedly installed at the bottom of one side of the L-shaped vertical plate. A first greening planting box is detachably installed on the side wall of the L-shaped vertical plate on the same side as the water receiving box. Several second greening planting boxes are detachably installed on the side wall of the L-shaped vertical plate on the same side as the water receiving box and are distributed at equal intervals directly below the first greening planting box.
[0012] The interior of the first greening planting box and several second greening planting boxes are all hollow and filled with planting material. The inner cavity of the first greening planting box is connected to the inner cavity of the water inlet. The front of the first greening planting box and several second greening planting boxes are provided with several growth holes through the corresponding inner cavity. The bottom of the first greening planting box and several second greening planting boxes are provided with several water filter holes through the inner cavity.
[0013] The circulating water pump is installed on the side of the L-shaped vertical plate away from the water receiving box. The input end of the circulating water pump is connected to the bottom of the inner cavity of the water receiving box, and the output end of the circulating water pump is connected to several return water pipes. The top ends of the several return water pipes are all connected to the inner cavity of the water inlet hopper.
[0014] Furthermore, several limiting grooves are equally spaced on one side of the L-shaped upright plate, and the inner wall of the uppermost limiting groove is provided with three drainage channels that penetrate the top of the L-shaped upright plate. The top of each of the three drainage channels is connected to the inner cavity of the water inlet hopper.
[0015] Furthermore, a first limiting slider is fixedly installed on the back of the first greening planting box. The first limiting slider is slidably installed in the uppermost limiting groove. The first limiting slider has three drainage grooves extending through and into the inner cavity of the first greening planting box away from the first greening planting box. The three drainage grooves are respectively connected to the corresponding drainage channels.
[0016] Furthermore, the tops of several of the second greening planting boxes are all open-topped and are respectively opposite to the water filter holes of the second greening planting box or the first greening planting box above.
[0017] Furthermore, a second limiting slider is fixedly installed on one side of each of the second greening planting boxes, and the second limiting sliders are slidably installed in the corresponding limiting grooves.
[0018] Furthermore, a first handle is fixedly installed at both ends of the first greening planting box, and a second handle is fixedly installed at both ends of several second greening planting boxes.
[0019] The technical solution provided by this utility model has the following advantages compared with the known prior art:
[0020] 1. The planting box is installed by using a limit slider and a sliding groove, which supports quick disassembly and position adjustment. Users can freely combine different plant types and arrangements according to their landscape needs to form a diverse three-dimensional green landscape. The number of second green planting boxes can also be increased or decreased as needed to flexibly adapt to different height spaces.
[0021] 2. The water inlet collects rainwater or external water supply, and delivers the water to the top planting box through the drainage channel and drainage trough. The water then seeps down layer by layer through the filter holes by gravity to achieve automatic irrigation. The bottom water collection box collects the seepage water and returns it to the water inlet via the circulating water pump, reducing water waste. It is especially suitable for arid areas or rainwater harvesting scenarios.
[0022] 3. The L-shaped vertical board can be designed to resemble a rockery, and combined with vertical greening to create a "mountain vegetation" effect, enhancing the sense of landscape layering. Growth holes are opened on the front of the planting box, and plant roots can extend outward through the holes to create a natural hanging or climbing effect, enhancing the visual impact.

[0033] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0034] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments. Example 1:
[0035] Reference Figure 1-4 This is the first embodiment of the present utility model, which discloses an integrated design structure of artificial rockery and vertical greening, including an L-shaped vertical plate 1. A water inlet 12 is installed on the top of the L-shaped vertical plate 1. A filter screen 13 is detachably installed at the top water inlet of the water inlet 12. The top of the filter screen 13 is flush with the top of the water inlet 12, and the bottom abuts against the top of the water inlet 12. The top of the water inlet 12 has a narrow opening design to facilitate the snap-fit placement of the filter screen 13. A water receiving box 14 is fixedly installed on the bottom of one side of the L-shaped vertical plate 1. The top of the water receiving box 14 has an open design, and rainwater, including seepage water from the second greening planting box 3, will fall into the water receiving box 14.
[0036] The first greening planting box 2 is detachably installed on the side wall of the L-shaped upright plate 1 on the same side as the water receiving box 14. Several second greening planting boxes 3 are detachably installed on the side wall of the L-shaped upright plate 1 on the same side as the water receiving box 14, and are distributed at equal intervals directly below the first greening planting box 2. The interior of the first greening planting box 2 and several second greening planting boxes 3 are hollow and filled with planting material. The planting material is filled with vertical greening seeds, such as ferns and ivy.
[0037] The inner cavity of the first greening planting box 2 is connected to the inner cavity of the water inlet hopper 12. The front of the first greening planting box 2 and several second greening planting boxes 3 are provided with several growth holes through the corresponding inner cavity. The bottom of the first greening planting box 2 and several second greening planting boxes 3 are provided with several water filtering holes through the inner cavity. The gap between the water filtering holes and the growth holes is small to prevent the planting material from extending out along with the seeping water and to prevent the planting material from falling out of the growth holes.
[0038] The circulating water pump 4 is installed on the side of the L-shaped vertical plate 1 away from the water receiving box 14. The input end of the circulating water pump 4 is connected to the bottom of the inner cavity of the water receiving box 14. The output end of the circulating water pump 4 is connected to several return water pipes 41. The top ends of the several return water pipes 41 are connected to the inner cavity of the water inlet hopper 12. A one-way valve is installed in the inner cavity of the return water pipe 41 extending into the inner cavity of the water inlet hopper 12 to prevent rainwater falling from the water inlet hopper 12 from flowing back to the circulating water pump 4. Example 2:
[0039] Reference Figure 1-4 This is the second embodiment of the present invention. The difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is that: a plurality of limiting grooves 11 are equally spaced on one side of the L-shaped upright plate 1. The length of the limiting grooves 11 is the same as the width of the L-shaped upright plate 1, so they can slide out or slide in from any position on the left or right. The inner wall of the uppermost limiting groove 11 penetrates the top of the L-shaped upright plate 1 and has three drainage channels. The top of each of the three drainage channels is connected to the inner cavity of the water inlet 12. A first limiting slider 21 is fixedly installed on the back of the first greening planting box 2. The first limiting slider 21 is slidably installed in the uppermost limiting groove 11. The first limiting slider 21 has three drainage grooves 22 that penetrate and extend into the inner cavity of the first greening planting box 2 away from the first greening planting box 2. The three drainage grooves 22 are respectively connected to the corresponding drainage channels.
[0040] The tops of several second greening planting boxes 3 are all open-top designs, and are respectively aligned with the water filter holes of the second greening planting box 3 above or the first greening planting box 2. The lengths of the first greening planting box 2 and the second greening planting box 3 are the same as the width of the L-shaped upright plate 1. Therefore, as long as the sides of the first greening planting box 2 and the second greening planting box 3 are flush with the sides of the L-shaped upright plate 1, the drainage trough 22 can be connected to the corresponding drainage channel. A second limiting slider 31 is fixedly installed on one side of several second greening planting boxes 3. The second limiting slider 31 is slidably installed in the corresponding limiting groove 11.
[0041] The remaining structure is the same as that in Example 1.
[0042] The working process of the integrated rockery and vertical greening design structure of this utility model is mainly divided into three stages: rainwater / irrigation water collection → gravity infiltration water supply → circulating water recycling. The specific process is as follows:
[0043] 1. Rainwater / irrigation water collection stage
[0044] The water inlet 12 is located at the top of the L-shaped vertical plate 1 and is used to collect natural precipitation such as rainwater or artificial irrigation water. The first filter screen 13 can be detachably installed at the water inlet of the water inlet 12 to filter impurities such as leaves and mud to prevent clogging of the subsequent water path. After the collected water flows through the water inlet 12, it enters the topmost first green planting box 2 through three drainage channels and corresponding drainage troughs 22.
[0045] 2. Gravity infiltration water supply stage
[0046] Water flows into the planting materials such as soil and hydroponics substrate in the first greening planting box 2. Because the planting box adopts a bottom drainage hole design, excess water naturally seeps down to the second greening planting box 3 below under the action of gravity. The second greening planting box 3 adopts an open top design to ensure that the water seeping from the upper layer can flow in smoothly and continue to seep downward, forming a layer-by-layer irrigation. The growth holes of each planting box allow the plant roots to extend, while promoting the even distribution of water and avoiding local waterlogging or drought.
[0047] 3. Circulating water recycling stage
[0048] The seepage water eventually converges into the water collection box 14 at the bottom to avoid water waste. After the circulating water pump 4 starts, the water in the water collection box 14 is pumped back to the water inlet hopper 12 to form a closed-loop water supply system. This circulation mode is particularly suitable for arid environments or rainwater recycling scenarios, significantly reducing the amount of artificial water replenishment.
[0049] 4. Maintenance and adjustment of the detachable planting box
[0050] Replacing plants or adjusting the layout: Users can hold the first handle 23 or the second handle 32 and slide the planting box horizontally so that its limiting slider is disengaged from the limiting groove 11, which can then be disassembled or the position adjusted. If the water filter hole is blocked, the planting box can be removed separately for rinsing without disassembling the entire structure.
[0051] Adapt to different landscape needs: By increasing or decreasing the number of second green planting boxes 3 or adjusting the arrangement such as staggered or stepped layout, the greening shape can be quickly changed.
[0052] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions will not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the protection scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
