Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of submerged plant cultivation technology, and in particular to a modular submerged plant planting base tray. Background Technology

[0002] Water ecological restoration is the process of restoring the original biodiversity and continuity of polluted water bodies in urban construction, fully utilizing the production potential of resources, and protecting the water environment. This enables the water ecosystem to enter a virtuous cycle, achieving simultaneous economic and ecological development. Water body restoration is currently an important policy for solving urban ecological problems in China, and the use of plants and microorganisms for water ecological restoration is an important technical measure in urban construction.

[0003] According to the prefabricated submerged plant soilless planting module proposed in Chinese Patent Publication No. CN209563300U, a filler material is used as a substrate for microbial implantation, providing a living environment for microorganisms and replacing traditional soil as a root extension matrix for submerged plants. This allows microorganisms and plant roots to fully exert their functions, accelerating the decomposition of harmful substances in the water and achieving the purpose of purifying the water. Plants are placed in planting positions, with their roots extending into the receiving cavity through the planting positions. This not only allows the plants and microorganisms to implant and combine within the receiving cavity, but also enables the exchange of wastewater between the receiving cavity and the external space. This allows the plant roots and microbial communities to fully absorb the rich nutrients in the water, accelerating the ecological purification of water quality. This prefabricated submerged plant soilless planting module has a simple structure, low production cost, and easy installation with its upper and lower plates. The planting positions allow for better plant cultivation, and multiple modules can be connected by connecting components to form a modular assembly. Installation is convenient and quick, and subsequent maintenance and replacement are easy. Moreover, the combination of multiple modules into one unit can prevent the modules from moving within the water.

[0004] The aforementioned existing technology, in its use, connects adjacent modules through tenon and mortise joints, which is difficult to withstand the impact of water flow, resulting in a high module displacement rate and damage to the connecting components, causing plants to be unable to grow normally. At the same time, it lacks a special protective structure at the bottom, and the roots of newly planted submerged plants are directly exposed to the threat of herbivorous organisms such as fish (such as grass carp) and snails, which is not conducive to the normal growth of submerged plants.

By setting a connecting mechanism, multiple upper plates can be easily and firmly connected into a whole network. At the same time, each upper plate has a certain resistance to water flow impact, and has the advantages of resisting weak water flow impact and protecting the roots of submerged plants.

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0023] like Figure 1-6 As shown, the present invention proposes a modular submerged plant planting base tray, which includes multiple upper plates 1, a floating frame 2 is provided below the upper plate 1, multiple planting positions 3 are provided on the top of the upper plate 1, a connecting mechanism 4 is provided between two connected upper plates 1, and a protective mechanism 5 is provided at the bottom of the floating frame 2.

[0024] In this invention, the upper plate 1 can be installed through the floating frame 2, allowing the upper plate 1 to float on the water surface. Submerged plants can be planted through multiple planting positions 3, and adjacent upper plates 1 can be connected and installed through the connecting mechanism 4. After connection and installation, multiple upper plates 1 can be easily and firmly connected into a whole network, which can also effectively resist the impact of weak water flow, improving the stability and success rate of the planting project.

[0025] The protective mechanism 5 can protect the bottom of the upper plate 1, effectively isolating aquatic organisms such as fish and snails from eating the seedlings of submerged plants, and significantly improving the survival rate of the seedlings.

[0026] In embodiment 1, the connecting mechanism 4 includes two fixing blocks 41 located on the top of the upper plate 1. Two fixing plates 43 are located on the top of adjacent upper plates 1, each corresponding to one of the two fixing blocks 41. A mounting groove 42 is provided on the side of the fixing block 41 near the fixing plate 43. The top and bottom of the mounting groove 42 are connected to the outside. A mounting plate 44 is provided on the side of the fixing plate 43 near the fixing block 41. Three connecting grooves 45 are provided on the inner side of the mounting groove 42. The two connecting grooves 45 near the mounting plate 44 are connected to the outside. A connecting block 46 is slidably connected inside each of the three connecting grooves 45. Two springs 47 are provided between each of the three connecting blocks 46 and the outer side of the mounting plate 44. Three sets of limiting components 48 are provided on the top of the fixing block 41.

[0027] When connecting and installing multiple upper plates 1, two adjacent mounting plates 44 are directly sent into the mounting groove 42. At the same time, three connecting blocks 46 are slidably connected to the interior of three connecting grooves 45. After connection, three sets of limiting components 48 limit the three connecting blocks 46 to ensure the stability of the installation of the three connecting blocks 46. After installation, the mounting plates 44 have a certain amount of room to move through the spring 47, so that there is a certain amount of room to move between adjacent upper plates 1. At the same time, it can also prevent the upper plates 1 from separating. Under the impact of weak water flow, if the upper plate 1 is displaced, it will compress the spring 47. After the weak water flow passes, the position of the upper plate 1 that was displaced will be restored under the action of the spring 47.

[0028] After the adjacent upper plates 1 are installed, multiple upper plates 1 form an overall network, which effectively resists the impact of water flow. Under the impact of water flow, a single upper plate 1 can have a certain amount of room to move, preventing the connection between adjacent upper plates 1 from being damaged under the impact of water flow. At the same time, after displacement, the upper plate 1 will return to the initial position, ensuring the stability of the submerged plant growth.

[0029] In the second embodiment, the limiting component 48 includes a threaded groove 481 formed on the top of the connecting block 46, and a threaded rod 482 extending into the threaded groove 481 is movably connected to the top of the fixing block 41. The threaded rod 482 is threadedly connected to the threaded groove 481, and a knob 483 is provided at the top of the threaded rod 482.

[0030] After the three connecting blocks 46 are slidably connected to the three connecting grooves 45 respectively, the knob 483 is rotated. The knob 483 will drive the threaded rod 482 to rotate, so that the threaded rod 482 is threadedly connected to the threaded groove 481. Thus, the threaded rod 482 and the threaded groove 481 can limit the corresponding connecting block 46, ensuring the stability of the connecting block 46 after installation and preventing the connecting block 46 from disengaging from the connecting groove 45.

[0031] In embodiment 3, the protective mechanism 5 includes a U-shaped block 51 located at the bottom of the floating frame 2. A U-shaped groove 52 is provided inside the U-shaped block 51. One side of the U-shaped groove 52 is connected to the outside. A mounting frame 53 is slidably connected to the side of the U-shaped groove 52 connected to the outside. A protective net 54 is provided at the bottom of the mounting frame 53. A horizontal plate 55 is provided on the side of the mounting frame 53 away from the U-shaped block 51. A handle 56 is provided on the side of the horizontal plate 55 away from the mounting frame 53. A positioning component 57 is provided on the side of the horizontal plate 55 away from the mounting frame 53.

[0032] Before planting submerged plants, the mounting frame 53 and its bottom protective net 54 are directly slidably connected to the inside of the U-shaped groove 52. The bottom of the floating frame 2 can be protected by the protective net 54. The mesh size of the protective net 54 is less than 5mm. The protective net 54 can effectively isolate aquatic organisms such as fish and snails from eating the submerged plant seedlings, and significantly improve the survival rate of the seedlings.

[0033] The protective netting 54 can be quickly installed and disassembled using the U-shaped block 51, U-shaped groove 52, handle 56, and horizontal plate 55, making it easy to recycle and reuse the protective netting 54.

[0034] The side of the horizontal plate 55 close to the U-shaped block 51 is in contact with the U-shaped block 51, and the top of the horizontal plate 55 is in contact with the bottom of the floating frame 2. After the protective net 54 is installed by the handle 56 and the horizontal plate 55, the horizontal plate 55 can cover the opening side of the U-shaped block 51 to ensure that the bottom of the floating frame 2 can be protected in all directions.

[0035] In Example 4, the protective net 54 can be directly installed at the bottom of the floating frame 2. However, the material of the protective net 54 is selected as photodegradable plastic or biodegradable polymer, so that the protective net 54 will automatically decompose after the protection period, avoiding secondary pollution. Therefore, it is not necessary to recycle the protective net 54.

[0036] In embodiment 5, the positioning component 57 includes a positioning plate 571 located on the side of the horizontal plate 55 away from the mounting frame 53. The side of the positioning plate 571 close to the floating frame 2 is in contact with the floating frame 2. The side of the positioning plate 571 away from the floating frame 2 is movably connected to a positioning bolt 572 extending into the interior of the floating frame 2. The positioning bolt 572 is threadedly connected to the floating frame 2.

[0037] By rotating the positioning bolt 572, the positioning bolt 572 is threadedly connected to the floating frame 2. The horizontal plate 55 can then be positioned by the positioning plate 571 and the positioning bolt 572, thereby ensuring the stability of the installation frame 53 and the protective net 54 after installation.

[0038] In embodiment six, a traction rope can be provided on the outside of the floating frame 2, and a submerged anchor is provided at the other end of the traction rope. The upper plate 1 can be further pulled by the traction rope and the submerged anchor.

[0039] Working principle: This modular submersible plant planting base tray, in use, directly inserts two adjacent mounting plates 44 into the mounting groove 42, simultaneously causing the three connecting blocks 46 to slide into the three connecting grooves 45 respectively. Then, rotating the knob 483 causes the threaded rod 482 to thread into the corresponding threaded groove 481, thereby limiting the corresponding connecting block 46 and ensuring the stability of the connection between adjacent floating frames 2. At the same time, under the action of the spring 47, under the impact of water flow, the upper plate 1 can have a certain amount of movement space, preventing damage under the impact of water flow. In the event of damage to the connection between adjacent upper plates 1, after displacement, the upper plate 1 will return to its initial position to ensure the stability of the submerged plant growth. Then, the mounting frame 53 and its bottom protective net 54 are slidably connected to the U-shaped groove 52 through the horizontal plate 55 and the handle 56, so that the bottom of the floating frame 2 can be protected by the protective net 54. Next, the horizontal plate 55 is positioned by the positioning plate 571 and the positioning bolt 572, thereby ensuring the stability of the mounting frame 53 and the protective net 54 after installation. Finally, submerged plants can be planted in multiple planting positions 3.

[0040] 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.
