[0021] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains; the terminology used herein in the description of this invention is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the invention; the term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0022] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a novel vegetable planting box includes a pre-set plate 1, characterized in that: the pre-set plate 1 is provided with a plurality of evenly distributed protrusions 2, and a plurality of evenly distributed connecting sleeves 3 are provided on one side of the pre-set plate 1 and penetrated by the protrusions 2. The interior of the connecting sleeves 3 is filled with potting soil 4. The connecting sleeves 3 are distributed obliquely upward on the side of the pre-set plate 1 with an oblique angle ranging from 45° to 60°. A base 5 is integrally provided on the side of the connecting sleeves 3 near the pre-set plate 1. The base 5 is provided with mounting holes 6 that penetrate itself and correspond to the protrusions 2. An expansion screw is provided inside the protrusions 2, and the protrusions 2 are engaged inside the mounting holes 6.

[0023] In this embodiment, the connection and positional relationship of each component is as follows: the protrusion 2 is set on the preset plate 1, the connecting sleeve 3 is located on one side of the preset plate 1 and is penetrated by the protrusion 2, and is filled with culture soil 4. The connecting sleeve 3 is distributed at an inclination angle of 45-60°. An integrated base 5 is provided on the side close to the preset plate 1. The mounting hole 6 on the base 5 corresponds to the protrusion 2, and the expansion screw in the protrusion 2 makes it engage inside the mounting hole 6.

[0024] The combined effects of these components are significant. The pre-installed plate 1 provides stable support for the entire planting box, and the raised blocks 2 on it not only enhance structural strength but also create a unique spatial layout through their through-fitting with the connecting sleeves 3. The inclined connecting sleeves 3 effectively utilize vertical space, increasing the planting area while facilitating light and air circulation for the plants. Their permeable and breathable terracotta material and smooth inner surface optimize the root growth environment and prevent root rot. The design of the base 5 and mounting holes 6 makes the installation of the connecting sleeves 3 convenient and secure, and the locking action of the expansion screws further enhances overall stability. Overall, this device achieves efficient planting in a limited space, is easy to install, and provides an ideal solution for home vegetable cultivation. The various structures work closely together to fully utilize their functions, effectively solving problems such as space utilization, complex installation, and poor growing environment in existing planting boxes.

[0025] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the preset plate 1 is made of lightweight, high-strength plastic material, which has good weather resistance and corrosion resistance to adapt to different outdoor or indoor planting environments; the connecting sleeve 3 is made of water-permeable and breathable clay material, and its inner surface is smoothed to help plant root growth and soil retention, while allowing adequate air and water exchange.

[0026] In this embodiment, the shape of the pre-set plate 1 can be flexibly designed as rectangular, circular, or fan-shaped to adapt to different spatial layouts. In a home balcony scenario, the rectangular pre-set plate 1 can be arranged longitudinally along the balcony railing to maximize the use of narrow spaces, while the fan-shaped design is suitable for corner areas, improving space utilization. The tilt angle of the connecting sleeve 3 is adjustable within the range of 45-60° to meet the lighting needs of different vegetables; for example, 45° is suitable for short-stemmed vegetables such as lettuce, while 60° is suitable for climbing vegetables such as tomatoes. The mounting holes 6 on the base 5 cooperate with the protrusions 2 to achieve quick assembly and disassembly of the planting box without additional tools, making it convenient for home users to change the planting position according to the season.

[0027] The density of the connecting sleeves 3 can be flexibly adjusted, with 8-15 connecting sleeves 3 arranged per square meter of preset plate 1. In small-scale home planting scenarios, a low-density distribution (8-10 sleeves / square meter) can be used to provide ample growing space for each vegetable; in large-scale planting scenarios, a high-density distribution (13-15 sleeves / square meter) can be used to increase yield. The inclined design and uniform distribution of the connecting sleeves 3 ensure even distribution of plant roots, avoiding localized nutrient competition. The permeable and breathable terracotta material promotes healthy root growth, and the smooth inner surface reduces soil loss and improves soil utilization. The device adopts a modular design, and multiple preset plate 1s can be stacked vertically or spliced ​​horizontally to form flexible and varied planting layouts, meeting the diverse planting needs of home users.

[0028] In use, first select a pre-set plate 1 of suitable shape and size according to the planting space and place it in the designated position; next, install the connecting sleeve 3 onto the base 5 in sequence, and fix the protrusion 2 to the mounting hole 6 with expansion screws to ensure a stable connection; then, fill the connecting sleeve 3 with an appropriate amount of potting soil 4, and plant vegetable seeds or seedlings according to personal preference; finally, place the device in a well-ventilated and sunny location, water and fertilize regularly, and vegetable planting can begin. This device is easy to use, requires no complicated tools or professional knowledge, and is suitable for home users.

[0029] Although the present invention has been disclosed above with reference to preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Any person skilled in the art can make various modifications and alterations without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention should be determined by the claims.
