DE3328991A1 - Earth trough mats for greening - Google Patents

Abstract

Purpose: wall surface greening inside and outside, room divider, hedge replacement. Solution: horizontal trough-shaped profiles and the like are e.g. are woven in between wires. These troughs (1) are filled with earth (3) and seed or planted and possibly watered by perforated tubes (5) which are laid in. The troughs, which are woven together to form mats, can be handled when rolled up. During mounting on the wall, the wires (2a) can e.g. be nailed onto a lathwork. Trough materials: roofing cardboard, plastic profiles, coated cardboards, nonwovens (glass fibres for example) and wovens, and also reinforced profiles made of mineral or ceramic materials. Material of the mountings: wires, cables, belts, chains (corrosion-protected). Techniques for mat manufacture: weaving, twisting in between wires, sewing on, welding on, knotting in etc. Advantages: surface-covering, insulating greening even with non-climbing flowering plants, independently of the earth at the foot of the wall. Unimpeded wall breathing. In manufacture and mounting no more expensive than other facade coverings, but biologically active.

"Earth gutter mats for greening"

Purpose: Passade isolation and greening with non- or little-climbing plants. Optionally also for interior walls, as a room divider or as a hedge replacement.

State of the art and its criticism; Traditionally, climbing plants are used for large-scale greening of the passages. If this is possible, it is one of the best options. The selection is small, however, the winter situation is not always attractive, windows have to be cut free, a targeted limitation to certain areas is hardly possible, but above all there must be sufficient healthy soil at the foot of the wall and protection against damage to the main shoots, otherwise the whole facade dies and the dead undergrowth can only be removed with great difficulty. In large cities, these last two requirements are almost generally absent. Other solutions with climbing nets and soil containers usually have a lower insulating effect, are complex, rarely cover the entire area and work with a few types of plants. Many solutions are only suitable for summer.

Task ; A facade cladding system is to be invented that protects the facade from moisture, does not hinder wall breathing, can be heat / cold insulation, enables area-wide vegetation independent of the ground at the foot of the wall with non- or little-climbing undemanding plants, quickly and is inexpensive to assemble and maintain, meets aesthetic requirements even in the ungreened or winter condition

Solution: According to the invention, the object is achieved in that strips of stiff-elastic material folded to form grooves are woven horizontally between vertical Ifelte wires. The groove is woven in between two wires, then the groove can widen in the space until it is clamped again by the next pair of wires. A blind-like effect is created. The retaining wires would be attached to the wall at regular intervals. The grooves woven into mats can be rolled up in any length and width and traded. For the transfer of excess water into the next lower channel, supports are to be provided on the underside of the channel. The gutters are filled with earth, be it during the production of the mats (pressed dry earth, possibly already mixed with "* seed") or by pouring in the "filling after assembly. The channel ends on the right and left can be closed. The necessary irrigation is carried out through inserted perforated hoses, whereby a hose does not need to be in each channel. Hoses can, however, also be passed vertically through the channels. Artificial irrigation that is independent of the mat does not need to be discussed further here.

Further configuration and variation e n; The respective building and fire regulations must be observed for the material. Depending on the intended use, the following materials appear to be particularly suitable: tar paper, bitumen-like materials, also appropriately coated "•" fabrics and glass fiber mats / mineral wool. Cardboard, fleece, paper, fabric, mushrooms, then also plastic profiles made permanent by wax or oil coating or impregnation , Metal profiles, permanent wood or halves of bimbus tubes ... Profiles made of foamed plastics can further improve the insulation properties.

The holding wires: corrosion-protected metal wire, but optionally also all types of cords, cables, ropes, cords, Belts, ribbons, chains.

As a variation, you can also work with slotted ribbons, among other things werrieh, through whose slots the gutters are pushed. A pushing of the gutters on cords or wires is

Explanation of the drawings: - £. 3328991

Fig.I shows gutters, for example made of roofing felt, with an overlapping back (14) and incisions in the gutter rear wall (15). The front edges are punched to be curvy and jagged. The shape of the drainage openings (4) is variable. Brackets (2a) are wires woven around the gutters. Earth in the gutters (3). Fig. II shows channels (Ia) with a raised rear wall in cross section in the holder.
Fig. III shows channels of type (Ib) with two visible sides - space = divider version - in brackets made of wire with screwed-in eyelets (II) and a perforated irrigation hose (5) inserted into a channel.

Flg.IV shows a) sewn grooves (la) with vertical irrigation = hose (5) and b) between straps riveted gutters Fig. V shows a version in which a belt (2c) is guided through apertures in the trough bottom (16) and on which the channel is fastened with hollow rivets (10), which can also be used for assembly, or with clamps. Welds are also possible.

Fig.VI Type (Ib) grooves inserted into chain links (2d) The smaller intermediate links can be used for assembly.

Chains with links of the same size can also be used, with a groove in each limb.

Fig.VII shows a channel (Ib) made of a cut tube in slotted belts (2e), next to it three types of slotted belts Fig. VIII shows a loop tape (2f) with a channel (Ia) with incisions in the rear wall (15). Loop tapes are well suited for retrofitting the gutters or removing individual gutters.

Fig.IX a: a channel (Ia), screwed into wires (2a) with eyelets (II) and vertical slot punching (I8a), which allows an increase in volume of the channel between the brackets, but can also promote the leaching and drying of the earth b : a channel (Ia), riveted with hollow rivets (10) between two straps. Channel front punching with horizontal slots (I8b) to increase volume. More stable form of punching, not as susceptible to leaching as (I8a.). Plants also grow through the fronts. Similar effect as with woven mats as gutter material or fabric.

Fig.X shows as a channel (Ib left, Ia right) a tube that has been cut open or cut out. The upturned lids, which are removed on the left, serve as the raised rear wall (14). The hose is attached to chains with Ilaken, but could also be sewn on or riveted in, for example.

Fig.XI shows an interwoven holding rod (6) on hook (8). Fig.XII shows a pattern for gutters (Ia) to cut two gutters with a corrugated front from a strip, for example roofing felt, with little loss. Then fold along the dashed line. Corresponding cutting lines next to it.

Fig.XIII shows the mat edge protection on a wall (7) by means of an edge protection profile (I3a) over a vertical battens (9)

Fig.XIV shows an edge securing profile (I3b) for room dividers, for example, which is attached to the Ma.ttenka.nte with clamping screws (17), for example on the straps (2c). Clamping screws (17) can be machine screws and nuts, a thread can also be cut into one half of the profile, possibly through the screw itself. The riveting or stapling or binding of profiles is also conceivable, depending on the requirements.
