[0006]

[Effect of the device]

 Therefore, in the present invention, the plant cultivation bed can be made vertical, and the land use efficiency is remarkably improved (it is estimated that it will be about three times or more as compared with the conventional horizontal type), and accordingly the heating will be performed. The energy efficiency required for such purposes is also improved.

[0007]

【Example】

The present invention will be described with reference to an embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 4. In the vertical type plant cultivation bed (10) shown in the figure, (11) and (11) are a pair of perforated panels, and The perforated panels (11), (11) are vertically installed facing each other with a predetermined space S , and are fixed on both sides by side frames (13), (13 ). The inner surface (11) A is formed in a sinusoidal corrugated shape , and the corrugated inner surface (11) A of the panels (11) and (11) is arranged so that the peaks face the valleys, and the side frames ( 13) (inner smell 13) Te, the panel (11), (11) between the spacer (13) a, (13) a is interposed, sectional funnel-shaped at the upper end of or spacing S A gutter (11) C is installed .

A large number of holes (11) B are provided in the panels (11), (11), and the holes (11) B are the corrugated inner surface (11) of the panels (11), (11). It is open to the descending slope of A and is inclined so as to rise from the inner side to the outer side. Each of the holes (11) B is fitted with a water absorbing plug (14) carrying a plant P. Has been done. The plant P is salad vegetables, lettuce, honeywort, spinach, parsley, tomato, cucumber and the like.

[0009] the panel (11), (11) is polystyrene, polypropylene, foam plastic, such as polyethylene, wood, consists fiberboard or the like, the water absorbent plug body (14) is a polyurethane foam, fiber molded, etc. Consists of.

A watering nozzle (15) is arranged above the pair of panels (11), (11), and the panels (11), (11) are movable frames (16) with casters (16) A. It is installed on the top, and a hole (16) B is provided at the bottom of the moving frame (16).

A plurality of vertical type plant cultivation beds (10) having the above-mentioned structure are arranged in parallel on the rail (17) A of the base frame (17), and a plurality of lamps (18) are laterally arranged between the beds (10). It is located in.

In the above structure, water is sprinkled from the water spray nozzle (15). Water is guide gutter (11) C with panel (11), (11) but flows down the gap S between, this time the water is the panel as shown in Figure 4 (11), (11 ) The corrugated inner surface (11) A, (11) A is received by the inner surface (11) A, (11) A while spreading evenly and flows down, and the holes (11) in the panels (11), (11) The water absorption plug (14) fitted to B absorbs water and is supplied to the plant P. Fertilizer and the like may be dissolved in the water. The holes (11) B of the panels (11), (11) are inclined from the inside to the outside so that the water does not leak from the holes (11) B to the outside.

After the water flows down between the panels (11) and (11), it is received by the moving frame (16) from the outlet (12), and the base frame from the hole (16) B of the moving frame (16). Run down to (17). The water flowing down to the base frame (17) is recirculated from the groove (17) B to the water spray nozzle (15) from the recirculation path (20) by the pump (19).

[0014] Thus in a plant P, which is responsible lifting the absorbent plug body (14) in the supplied water, also will be grown from the lamp (18) is irradiated with light, as shown in FIG. 2 The ramp (18) is moved between the beds (10) and (10) at a predetermined speed. By moving the lamp (18) in this way, it is possible to prevent the heat from the lamp (18) from damaging the plant P, and the lamp (18) can be brought closer to the bed (10). The space between the beds (10) can be reduced to further arrange the beds (10) densely. The bed (10) may be moved without moving the lamp (18).

In addition to the above-mentioned embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, a entangled body (21) of fibers made of polypropylene, polyethylene, polyamide, metal or the like is interposed between the panels (11) and (11) to reduce the flow rate of water. It may be suppressed and diffused. Further, as shown in FIG. 6, the hole (11) B of the panel (11) may be opened in the mountain portion of the corrugated inner surface (11) A, or may be opened in the ascending slope. Further, as shown in FIG. 7, the panels (11), (11) may be arranged so that the peaks of the corrugated inner surfaces (11) A, (11) A face each other. Further, as shown in FIG. 8, the corrugation of the inner surface (21) A of the panel (21) provided with the perforations (21) B may be a corrugated shape, or the perforations (31) B may be provided as shown in FIG. The waveform of the inner surface (31) A of the panel (31) may be a pulse waveform.
