Therefore, a feature defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of those features.

[0023] In the description of the embodiments, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "set," "connect," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or a connection through an intermediate medium, or it can be a connection within two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0024] Example 1: like Figure 1 As shown, the modular garden greening flower trough in this embodiment includes a trough body 1. The trough body 1 is a hexagonal prism structure with an open top and a closed bottom, which has the advantages of high structural strength and good stability. Three dovetail blocks 2 and three dovetail grooves 3 are respectively arranged vertically on the outer side wall of the trough body 1. The three dovetail blocks 2 and the three dovetail grooves 3 are spaced apart from each other. The sizes of the dovetail blocks 2 and the dovetail grooves 3 are matched so that the two trough bodies 1 can be quickly inserted together. Each dovetail groove 3 has a limiting part 4 at the bottom to limit the bottom of the dovetail block 2 and prevent it from falling out of the dovetail groove 3.

[0025] like Figure 2 As shown, the bottom of the tank 1 is provided with several seepage holes 5, which are used to drain excess water from the soil in the tank 1.

[0026] The tank 1 is entirely made of biodegradable materials such as PLA, PHA, PBAT, and PBS through injection molding or 3D printing. It can completely degrade in the natural environment, even achieving negative carbon emissions, making it safe and environmentally friendly. A single plant or multiple plants can be grown inside the tank 1. Of course, for cost considerations, the tank 1 can also be made of other conventional plastics through injection molding or 3D printing.

[0027] like Figure 3-5 As shown, in use, by interlocking the dovetail blocks 2 and dovetail grooves 3 between two adjacent grooves 1, multiple grooves 1 can be quickly spliced ​​together, forming a variety of different shapes (not limited to the shapes shown in the figure), which improves the aesthetics of the flower trough and its adaptability to different scenes.

[0028] Example 2: like Figure 6 As shown, multiple pads 6 are provided on both sides of the dovetail block 2 and the dovetail groove 3 on the side wall of the groove body 1. The pads 6 are provided with threaded holes 7. Connectors are provided on the side wall of the groove body 1. The connectors are connected to the threaded holes 7 by the first bolt 8.

[0029] like Figure 7As shown, the connector includes a horizontal plate 9 and a vertical plate 10 arranged perpendicularly to each other. The horizontal plate 9 and the vertical plate 10 form a T-shaped structure, and the vertical plate 10 divides the two sides of the horizontal plate 9 into a long plate and a short plate. The bottom of the long plate is provided with an arc-shaped arm 11, and a support block 12 is provided on the side of the vertical plate 10 located at the bottom of the short plate. The support block 12 is provided with a first through hole 13 penetrating the vertical plate 10.

[0030] A first clearance groove 14 is provided on the side of the edge of the horizontal plate 9 near the groove 1.

[0031] When the connector is connected to the groove 1, the bottom of the short plate is stuck on the upper edge of the pad 6, and the support block 12 and the pad 6 fit together. The dovetail block 2 or the dovetail groove 3 enters the first clearance groove 14, and then the first bolt 8 passes through the first through hole 13 and connects with the threaded hole 7, thereby fixing the connector to the side wall of the groove 1.

[0032] The connector can also be made of similar materials and processes as the groove 1, and the size of the connector can be customized according to the installation situation.

[0033] When using, such as Figure 8 As shown, multiple grooves 1 are first spliced ​​together, and then they are clamped onto the road guardrail by multiple arc-shaped arms 11, with the sidewalls of the grooves 1 resting against the side of the guardrail; the arc-shaped arms 11 act as hooks and have a certain clamping force, thereby connecting multiple grooves 1 to the guardrail.

[0034] Example 3: The connector can also take other forms, such as Figure 9-10 As shown, the connector in this embodiment includes a first semi-cylinder 15 and a second semi-cylinder 16 arranged opposite to each other. The first semi-cylinder 15 has a backward-curved arc arm 17 on its upper side and a first connecting plate 18 on its lower side. The second semi-cylinder 16 has a corner arm 19 on its upper side that engages with the arc arm 17 and a second connecting plate 20 on its lower side. Both the first connecting plate 18 and the second connecting plate 20 have a second through hole 21, and the two are connected by a second bolt 22 and a nut 23 that pass through the second through hole 21.

[0035] The first semi-cylinder 15 has a horizontally extending connecting plate 24 on the upper and lower sides of its back. A connecting block 25 is provided on each side of the connecting plate 24 along the longitudinal direction. Each connecting block 25 has a third through hole 26. A second clearance groove 27 is provided between the two connecting blocks 25 on the upper and lower sides of the first semi-cylinder 15.

[0036] Multiple anti-slip strips 28 are provided at intervals on the inner walls of both the first semi-cylinder 15 and the second semi-cylinder 16.

[0037] The connector can also be made of similar materials and processes as the groove 1, and the size of the connector can be customized according to the installation situation.

[0038] In use, first align the third through hole 26 on the connecting block 25 with the threaded hole 7 on the pad block 6, and then connect the first bolt 8 through the third through hole 26 to the threaded hole 7. The dovetail block 2 or the dovetail groove 3 enters the second clearance groove 27, thereby fixing the first semi-cylinder 15 to the side wall of the groove body 1.

[0039] Then, the first semi-cylinder 15 is attached to one side of the guardrail, and the second semi-cylinder 16 is attached to the other side of the guardrail. The corner arm 19 and the arc arm 17 are then engaged. The second bolt 22 is then passed through the two second through holes 21, and the other end is locked with a nut 23, thereby clamping the guardrail between the first semi-cylinder 15 and the second semi-cylinder 16. The final installation effect can be referenced. Figure 8 .

[0040] In summary, the trough 1 in this utility model can be used alone or in combination, placed on ground surfaces such as lawns, flower beds, green belts, and curbs, and can be combined into various shapes to enhance aesthetics. It can also be connected to road railings through connectors and installed on railings in municipal roads, overpasses, highways, pedestrian overpasses, etc. It has the advantage of being a multi-purpose trough, improving the adaptability of the flower trough in different scenarios. Moreover, it is simple to manufacture, low in cost, and easy to install, making it suitable for large-scale promotion and application.
