Description

The utility model relates to funeral urns, namely biodegradable urns for ashes [IPC A61G17/007].

In the prior art there is known an urn for storing the cremated remains of a person or pet, containing a body in the shape of a protective angel on a stand with an outwardly protruding shelf adjacent to the angel, and on which an image of a person or pet can rest, the angel is positioned to lean over the shelf and form a protected space above a shelf, the space being adapted to accommodate an image of a person or pet; an outward-opening cavity in the housing to receive cremated remains; and a lid covering a cavity for storing cremated remains within the housing [US20040040128, 03/04/2004].

The disadvantage of the invention is that there is no possibility of decomposition of the ashes.

The closest analogue, a prototype, has been found, a bio-urn for human and animal ashes, containing two capsules made of organic material - cellulose, in the lower of which the ashes of a person or animal are placed, in the upper one the components of fertilizers are poured, which are mixed with the selected seeds, after which the urn closes with a lid https://biosurn.ru/?ysclid=lh8rdk7hzg379175476.

The disadvantages of the found device are:

long decomposition time of the upper capsule made of cellulose;

there is a high probability of plant death due to the upper capsule being made of cellulose that is poorly permeable to air, resulting in a lack of oxygen and an excess of moisture in the soil.

The objective of the claimed utility model is to create a biodegradable burial urn and create favorable conditions for plants.

The technical result is to improve conditions for plant growth.

In fig. Figure 1 shows a general view of a biological burial urn.

The figure indicates: 1 - lower container, 2 - upper container, 3 - mineralized soil, 4 - ashes, 5 - drainage mixture of perlite and vermiculite.

The technical result is achieved by the fact that the bio-urn contains two containers, one of which is lower 1 of large volume made of non-laminated cellulose-containing material on mineral components, into which cremated remains (ashes) 4 are placed, the second upper 2 is small, placed in container 1 of larger volume, made of pressed peat, into which a drainage mixture 5 of perlite and vermiculite and mineralized soil 3 are poured.

The containers are connected by assembly operations, where the upper one is tightly inserted into the lower one, with the possibility of removal.

Non-laminated material means material without any protective coating. The absence of a protective coating contributes to the natural decomposition of such material in the soil.

An embodiment is also possible in which the top container is closed, for example sealed on top with film, foil or a tightly fitted lid, and filled with a drainage mixture of perlite and vermiculite and mineralized soil so that it forms a sealed container that can be opened when using the urn.

Due to the fact that the small container is made of pressed peat, which has good air permeability and moisture resistance, this will improve the supply of oxygen to the root system of plants and the roots will grow to the lower large container, until the small container is completely decomposed, while the pressed peat is not only nutritious, but also do not contain chemical additives and are therefore environmentally friendly. Also, the neutral Ph level of vermiculite in the drainage mixture with high ion exchange capacity prevents soil oxidation.

Due to the fact that the lower urn is made of non-laminated cellulose-containing material with mineral components, which protects the root system from overheating and smoothes out temperature fluctuations in the soil, prevents moisture evaporation and suppresses the growth of weeds, eliminating the need for weeding in the rows. in which the cremated remains are placed, and a small peat urn is placed on top, this will serve as additional fertilizer for the root system of the plant or seedling sprouting from above.

Brown wood pulp, cotton, and straw are used as cellulose-containing materials.

All components of the containers together will speed up not only their decomposition, but will also speed up the quality and growth of plants, feeding the root system with the necessary nutrients and retaining moisture, which will eliminate the lack of moisture in dry weather.

To germinate seeds or seedlings, ashes are placed in the lower container, an upper container made of peat is inserted on top, seeds are poured inside or plant seedlings are inserted, a mixture of soil and seeds is added on top of them and not on top, a drainage mixture of perlite and vermiculite is added, then watered , after the plants begin to sprout through the upper container, the urn is planted into the soil.

The effect of the drainage mixture is moisture, air.

After planting a biodegradable urn in the soil, the following stages can be traced:

1. 14 - 18 days. The seedling produces its first roots in the small base of the biourn. The peat container decomposes by more than 45%, the large container made from our special non-laminated cellulose-containing material with mineral components - by 25%. The drainage mixture prevents moisture stagnation and ensures healthy air exchange in the substrate.

2. 28 – 33 days. A peat container decomposes by more than 90%, a large container made of non-laminated material - by 50%. The roots of a young plant are strengthened in a small base, easily grow through and do not experience growth restrictions. The plant feeds on potassium phosphate, which acts as a highly concentrated means for feeding plant crops and makes up about 77% of the mass of ashes. The neutral Ph level of vermiculite in the drainage mixture with high ion exchange capacity prevents soil oxidation.

3. 42 - 47 days. A peat container decomposes 100%, a large container made of non-laminated cardboard - 75%. The plant's roots are anchored in a large base of ashes and grow quickly in a fertile environment. And due to the fact that the large container has not completely decomposed, the roots have the opportunity to strengthen and be saturated with nutrients in a highly fertile environment before emerging into the surrounding soil.

4. 56 – 61 days. The root system is well developed, both containers are 100% decomposed and act as additional feeding for the plant, which is ready to take root in the ground.

The technology will create an important nutrient medium in the soil and will support the health and development of the young plant.

Thus, a quickly degradable urn design has been created, which can improve plant growth and quality without the use of chemical components.
