Transparent, bell-shaped rigidity device for modular mulching, irrigation and air conditioning plates intended for various vegetable varieties such as tomatoes, sweet peppers and aubergines

摘要

Modular mulching, irrigation and air conditioning device for crops, consisting of a modular plate made of black plastic, which plate consists of a flat edge perforated with orifices 21 for fixing to the ground extended by a bulge then a gentle slope ending at a lower level in a central planting orifice 9 over which there is attached a rigidity device made from rigid and transparent plastic of cylindrical shape in its lower portion and of frustoconical shape in its upper portion, the two portions being separated by an intermediate annular channel 4 having orifices 5 promoting or inhibiting gaseous, fluid and thermal exchanges between the enclosure thus constituted and the external medium by means of a ring/sleeve 11. In the concave upper portion 7 of the rigidity device there is an orifice 6 intended for the possible passage of a stake 12, which orifice may be instantaneously covered over by means of a plug/cap 10. The lower portion of the rigidity device has an annular channel which can bear on the flat edge of the modular mulching, irrigation and air conditioning device; this same annular channel may be filled with soil as ballast in addition to being fixed to the ground by means of metal pegs.
