DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an artificial planting floor used for planting a plant on a rooftop, a veranda or the like, and more particularly to a base panel unit thereof.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As an artificial planting floor of this kind, for example, a waterproof panel is formed on a rooftop or a balcony, and a molded panel is formed on the waterproof panel so as to form an uneven surface on both sides. The water-retentive foam particles are supplied and scattered, and a water-permeable filter is laid thereon, and an artificial soil layer is formed on the water-permeable filter. It is known that plants are planted. In this case, the artificial planting floor allows rainwater or sprinkling of the artificial soil layer to reach the water-retaining foam of the molded panel through a water-permeable filter. Water is absorbed by the water-retaining foam to retain water, while water vapor is generated from the water-retention foam during drying to moisten the artificial soil layer and supply water to the roots of plants.

[0003]

However, in this case, the artificial planting floor is formed at least by cutting and abutting the molded panel according to the site, distributing the supply of the water-retentive foam, and installing the water-permeable filter. Since it is necessary to go through processes such as cutting, laying, and setting up an artificial soil layer, the construction is complicated.
In addition, this kind of artificial planting floor is generally formed outdoors on buildings such as rooftops, balconies, and verandas.
At this time, the water-retentive expanded granules themselves have a low specific gravity,
Lightweight and water-permeable filters are generally thin and light sheets themselves. For example, if there is wind, water-retentive foam particles are blown away, which hinders uniform supply and distribution. In addition, the water-permeable filter is skipped or turned over, making it impossible to perform the construction smoothly, which further complicates the construction.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide an artificial planting floor in which the formation of an artificial planting floor is simplified and the construction can be performed smoothly and reliably. To provide a base panel unit.
