Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of building renovation and greening technology, and in particular to a prefabricated multifunctional planting system for existing building balconies. Background Technology

[0002] In the process of urban renewal, the balconies of existing buildings, as the core space for residents to interact with the outdoor environment, have become an important direction for improving the quality of life of residents and building urban micro-ecology through functional expansion and ecological transformation. However, the current greening transformation schemes for existing building balconies generally have many technical defects, making it difficult to meet the needs of large-scale promotion and residents' actual needs.

[0003] Current balcony greening renovations mostly rely on customized construction methods, such as drilling holes in the balcony wall to insert expansion bolts to fix metal brackets or pouring concrete planting beds on-site. These methods have long construction cycles, and the noise and dust generated during the process seriously affect residents' normal lives. Secondly, the damage to the original building structure is irreversible, and drilling holes in the wall can easily penetrate the waterproof layer of the balcony wall, leading to leaks later. Some solutions involve fixing heavy-duty planting racks, which requires drilling holes in the balcony railing or the ground, potentially weakening the load-bearing strength of the railing or damaging the floor tiles, posing structural safety hazards. On the other hand, traditional balcony greening mainly involves scattering potted plants, which occupy the balcony's floor space, resulting in narrow passageways. This is especially problematic for small apartments where the conflict between greening and passage needs is prominent. More importantly, the lack of fixing devices for potted plants makes them prone to falling during typhoons, strong winds, and other severe weather. Utility Model Content
