[Configuration of wall greening equipment]
Referring to FIG. 1, a wall greening device 100 is for decorating a living plant, and includes a trunk edge 1, a planting sheet 2, irrigation hoses 30 and 31, a water tank 4, and a tray 6. I have.

  There are four trunk edges 1 in this example, which are made of aluminum. The trunk edge 1 is laid sideways (substantially horizontal) and fixed to the wall 8. In this example, the trunk edge 1 is laid horizontally, but may be laid vertically or diagonally, or a combination of horizontal, vertical and diagonal.

  The planting sheet 2 has water absorption and water retention, and for example, a non-woven fabric, woven fabric, felt, sponge, urethane, sponge, etc., processed from a material rich in water absorption and water retention can be used. It is preferable to use a material that is easily rooted. A specific example of the planting sheet 2 will be described later.

  The planting sheet 2 is for activating a plant, and is attached to the trunk edge 1 with a stainless steel screw 71. There are nine planting sheets 2 in this example, which are arranged vertically and horizontally (lattice). Each planting sheet 2 is bridged between two corresponding trunk edges 1. In this example, the planting sheets 2 are arranged vertically and horizontally, but may be arranged only horizontally, only vertically, only diagonally, or a combination thereof. Plants to be planted on the planting sheet 2 are, for example, honeysuckle, axillaris, mokkobara, hedera helix, hedera canariensis, tikakazura, kokuryu, or philiablanc.

  The irrigation hoses 30 and 31 are provided with hose bands 33A and 33B, respectively. The hose band 33 </ b> A is wound around the middle part of the irrigation hose 30, and the irrigation hose 30 is attached above the lower planting sheet 2. The hose band 33 </ b> B is wound around the middle part of the irrigation hose 31, and the irrigation hose 31 is attached above the upper planting sheet 2. The irrigation hose 30 is connected to the faucet 35.

  The water tank 4 is made of aluminum, for example. The water storage tank 4 is attached to the upper part of the wall surface greening device 100.

  The tray 6 is made of aluminum, for example. The saucer 6 is attached to the lower part of the wall surface greening device 100. The tray 6 is attached so as to protrude forward.

  Although the trunk edge 1, the water storage tank 4, and the saucer 6 are comprised with aluminum, they are not specifically limited. For example, it may be made of wood or iron. However, aluminum is lighter than wood and iron and is less susceptible to corrosion.

  With reference to FIG.2 and FIG.3, the water tank 4 is equipped with the hole 44 in the bottom. The irrigation hose 31 is provided with a connection part 36 in its middle abdomen. The connecting portion 36 is connected to the hole 44.

  Referring to FIG. 4, the irrigation hose 30 includes a plurality of holes 34. Although the irrigation hose 31 is not shown in figure like the irrigation hose 30, it has several holes.

  3 and 4, when the faucet 35 is opened, water flows from the faucet 35 into the irrigation hose 30 and is supplied to the planting sheet 2 through the plurality of holes 34. 2 and 3, the water in the water storage tank 4 flows into the irrigation hose 31 through the hole 44 and the connection portion 36, and is further supplied to the planting sheet 2 through the hole. Thus, since the wall surface greening apparatus 100 is equipped with the irrigation hoses 30 and 31, it can irrigate the planting sheet 2 easily.

  Referring to FIG. 5, wall surface greening apparatus 100 further includes a protective net 5. The protective net 5 is attached to the water tank 4 and the tray 6 so as to cover the planting sheet 2.

  As the planting sheet 2, it is preferable to use a non-woven fabric mixed with a water-absorbent resin. For example, a seedling sheet disclosed in JP-A-11-206241 can be used. More specifically, a “Sanyo nursery sheet” manufactured by Sanyo Chemical Industries, Ltd. can be used.

  As the planting sheet 2 containing a water-absorbing resin, for example, a resin sheet disclosed in JP-A-2001-37344, a planting base disclosed in JP-A-2008-199984, and JP-A-2008-54611 are disclosed. A vegetation mat, a substrate for plant cultivation medium disclosed in JP 2000-287536 A can be used.

  As the water-absorbing resin, for example, a horticultural water retention agent disclosed in JP 2007-319029 A can be used. More specifically, "AG polymer" from Mitsuru Horie, Ltd., "Sunfresh" and "Aqua Pearl" from Sanyo Chemical Industries, Ltd., Sundia polymer "Aqua Pearl" (registered trademark) from Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation, Sumitomo Seika Co., Ltd. “Aqua Keep” and Mebior Co., Ltd. “SkyGel” (registered trademark) can be used.

  As the nonwoven fabric, for example, “TDS nonwoven fabric” and “Palcloth” manufactured by Oji Kinocloth Co., Ltd. can be used. As the nonwoven fabric having an antibacterial action, for example, a sterilization filter “Viteclean AG filter” manufactured by Kanai Important Industry Co., Ltd. can be used.

  In addition, as the planting sheet 2, seedling materials “Rakuraku paper” and seeding sheets of Senkoya Co., Ltd. can be used.

[Method of manufacturing wall greening device]
Next, the manufacturing method of the wall surface greening apparatus 100 is demonstrated.

  Next, referring to FIG. 3 again, the irrigation hoses 30 and 31 are attached above the planting sheet 2. Specifically, the irrigation hoses 30 and 31 are wound around the hose bands 33A and 33B, and the hose bands 33A and 33B are attached above the planting sheet 2. Then, the irrigation hose 30 is connected to the faucet 35.

  Next, the water storage tank 4 is attached to the upper part of the wall surface greening device 100. Then, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the connecting portion 36 of the irrigation hose 31 is connected to the hole 44 of the water storage tank 4.

  Next, referring to FIG. 1 again, the tray 6 is attached to the lower part of the wall surface greening device 100 so as to protrude forward.

  In addition, it is not necessary to attach the irrigation hoses 30 and 31, the water storage tank 4, and the saucer 6 in the above order, and may be attached in any order.

  Next, although not illustrated, a plant is made to settle on the planting sheet 2. Specifically, an incision is made in an arbitrary portion of the planting sheet 2, and a plant is planted in the incision. In this example, after attaching the planting sheet 2 to the trunk edge 1, the plant is alive on the planting sheet 2, but conversely, after planting the plant on the planting sheet 2, the planting sheet 2 is attached to the trunk rim 1. It may be attached.

  Finally, referring to FIG. 5, the protective net 5 is attached so as to cover the planting sheet 2. Specifically, the protective net 5 is pasted so as to cross over the water tank 4 and the tray 6.
