Modular green roof system

Abstract

A modular green roof system includes a corrugated panel, a breathable material, a recycling bin, and a pumping motor. The corrugated panel has a top surface, compartments, a receiving space, a bottom edge, and a collection channel. The breathable material is disposed in the receiving space. The recycling bin is located below or near the bottom edge and has a water collection hole. The pumping motor is connected to the recycling bin and a water supply pipe with an outlet. Water is guided from the corrugated panel to the collection channel and then into the recycling bin. The water is then pumped by the pumping motor through the water supply pipe to the outlet and back to the corrugated panel, achieving a modular green roof system structure that collects, recycles, and supplies water back to the roof.

Claims

1. A modular green roof system, comprising at least: A corrugated sheet has a top surface, a plurality of compartments, a plurality of accommodating spaces, a bottom end, and a collection channel. The compartments are located on the top surface, the accommodating spaces are formed between adjacent compartments, and the collection channel is located at the bottom end. A plurality of breathable materials are disposed in the accommodating spaces. A recycling bin is located below or near the bottom end of the corrugated sheet and has a water collection hole. A water pump is connected to the recycling bin and to a water supply pipe with an outlet. Water can be guided from the corrugated sheet to the collection channel and then through the water collection hole into the recycling bin. The water pump can transport the water in the recycling bin to the outlet via the water supply pipe, allowing the water to flow back to the corrugated sheet, thus achieving a modular green roof system structure.

2. The modular green roof system as described in claim 1, wherein, The partitions protrude from the top surface, such that the accommodating spaces are arranged along the extension direction of the corrugated plate.

3. The modular green roof system as described in claim 1, wherein, Each breathable material is disposed in the corresponding receiving space, so that each breathable material is limited by the corresponding compartment.

4. The modular green roof system as described in claim 1, wherein, The manifold is located at the lower end and corresponds to the water collection hole of the recycling bin, so that water flowing from the corrugated plate to the lower end can be introduced into the recycling bin through the manifold.

5. The modular green roof system as described in claim 1, wherein, The water supply pipe extends from the pump motor to one side of the corrugated plate opposite to the lower end, and the outlet is located on one side of the corrugated plate opposite to the lower end, so that the water discharged from the outlet can flow along the corrugated plate to the lower end.

6. The modular green roof system as described in claim 1, wherein, The breathable material is a plant-supporting material that allows water to penetrate, so that the breathable material can be placed in the containment space and receive the water discharged from the outlet and flowing through the corrugated plate.
