FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a raised bed.
STATE OF THE ART
Raised beds are beds or planters, which are mostly used for growing vegetables, herbs or flowers and are not laid out at ground level, but rise above the usual bed level.
Raised beds offer a number of advantages. The most obvious is the ergonomic way of gardening without having to bend over. In addition, raised beds can be used regardless of the subsoil - soils that are difficult to plant, such as sandy or loamy soils, are not a problem when using a raised bed. By decoupling from the subsoil, it is also easier in many cases to keep pests in check with raised beds. Another advantage is that when using a raised bed, no green space is necessary and, accordingly, planting on small areas such as balconies, terraces or backyards is possible.
Numerous shapes and designs of raised beds are known from the prior art. EP 3 360 409 A1, for example, discloses a raised bed comprising a frame body which is formed from a multiplicity of surface elements plugged into one another, creating plant openings. The surface elements can be plugged into one another in such a way that the frame body manages without any additional support structure.
A disadvantage of the raised beds known from the prior art is that they have a high weight due to the necessary mechanical stability of the surface elements and are expensive to produce.
OBJECT OF THE INVENTION
It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a raised bed which overcomes the disadvantages of the prior art and is inexpensive and easy to manufacture. Furthermore, the raised bed should have a lower weight and still guarantee the necessary stability in an operating state.
DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION
The object set at the beginning is achieved in a raised bed according to the invention in that the raised bed comprises a frame body having an at least partially polygonal floor plan, the frame body extending along a vertical axis, the frame body having at least one planar delimiting element detachably connected to the frame body of this type protrudes that the frame body and the at least one planar delimiting element form at least one receiving space, which at least one receiving space can be filled with bulk material.
The raised bed according to the invention has the frame body, which on the one hand defines the shape of the raised bed and on the other hand ensures the stability of the raised bed. For example, wind forces acting on the raised bed and the weight of the bulk material are at least indirectly held by the frame body.
The raised bed according to the invention also has at least one planar delimiting element which is releasably connected to the frame body. This means that the corresponding connection can be released again without damaging the delimitation element and / or the frame body. The releasable connection is preferably a screw connection which has numerous advantages, such as, for example, low costs, easy releasability and a variable pretensioning force.
The frame body and the at least one planar delimiting element form the receiving space, which receiving space can be filled with bulk material, for example with earth, in an operating state of the raised bed according to the invention. This means that the receiving space is open in one area in the operating state towards the top - i.e. against the direction of gravity - so that the bulk material remains at least for the most part in the receiving space after it has been filled.
In the context of this invention, the term “planar delimiting element” is understood to mean a delimiting element that spreads or extends over a two-dimensional area and has a certain thickness. That is to say, the at least one planar delimitation element is a "full" element, such as a sheet metal or a board, which can have any geometric shape.
The upwardly open area of the receiving space can be planted in the operating state of the raised bed according to the invention.
By using the frame body, the raised bed according to the invention is particularly stable in the operating state. Furthermore, it is possible to design the at least one planar delimitation element with a smaller thickness, since the frame body ensures the stability of the raised bed according to the invention. This allows material to be saved, which in turn means that the raised bed according to the invention can be produced more cost-effectively.
In a preferred embodiment of the raised bed according to the invention it is provided that the frame body comprises an interior space and has at least one recess. The at least one recess leads to material savings in the framework body, which not only reduces the weight of the framework body, but also makes the production of the framework body more cost-effective. This further reduces the production costs for the raised bed according to the invention.
It is particularly preferably provided in the raised bed according to the invention that the at least one recess is arranged to connect the at least one receiving space to the interior.
Due to the connection of the receiving space and the interior, bulk material is typically located both in the receiving space and in the interior in the operating state. This is advantageous because it increases the “planting depth” accordingly, which means that the roots of the planting have more space and the planting grows better.
Furthermore, this also increases the stability of the raised bed according to the invention, since the interior can be filled with bulk material, whereby the raised bed can withstand, for example, wind forces acting even better.
It would be conceivable that the frame body of the raised bed according to the invention has a floor cover so that the bulk material is in no contact with the ground in the operating state. Raised beds designed in this way are preferably used on courtyards, terraces and balconies.
However, it would also be conceivable that the frame body of the raised bed according to the invention does not have a floor cover, so that the bulk material is in contact with the ground in the operating state. As a result, the planting depth is practically unlimited due to the contact with the ground, which means that even large and heavily draining plants can be grown without problems. Contact with the subsoil also ensures active soil life and a natural moisture balance.
In a preferred embodiment of the raised bed according to the invention it is provided that the at least one flat delimiting element has at least one reinforcing element.
The at least one reinforcing element serves to reinforce the delimiting element. That is, the at least one reinforcement element increases the durability, the shape and the stability of the at least one planar delimiting element.
The reinforcing element can have different shapes. For example, the reinforcement element can be designed in the form of a grid or a hose. In the raised bed according to the invention, however, it is particularly preferred that the at least one reinforcing element is designed as a strut.
It would be conceivable that the at least one strut is incorporated into the planar delimiting element - i.e. that the strut is part of the planar delimiting element. The at least one strut preferably runs diagonally to a longitudinal extension of the delimiting element and serves primarily to absorb and dissipate tensile and compressive forces and thereby strengthen the delimiting element.
For example, the at least one reinforcing element can be incorporated into the delimiting element by punching, reshaping or deep drawing. The reinforcement element can have various shapes, angles of inclination and lengths.
Of course, it is not excluded that the raised bed according to the invention has a plurality of reinforcing elements that are designed differently. That is to say, for example, one reinforcement element could be designed in the form of a grid and another reinforcement element in the form of a strut.
By using at least one reinforcing element, the at least one planar delimiting element can be made even thinner without the raised bed according to the invention losing stability. Therefore, in a preferred embodiment of the raised bed according to the invention, it is provided that the at least one flat delimiting element has a thickness in a range from 0.5 mm to 3 mm, preferably in a range from 0.5 mm to 1.5 mm.
By this embodiment, further material is saved in the raised bed according to the invention, whereby the weight of the raised bed according to the invention is further reduced and the production of the raised bed according to the invention is more cost-effective.
In a preferred embodiment of the raised bed according to the invention it is provided that the at least one planar delimiting element and the vertical axis form an acute angle in a range from 30 ° to 80 °, preferably in a range from 40 ° to 60 °, particularly preferably in one Range from 45 ° to 55 °, enclose with each other.
By choosing the angle between the at least one delimiting element and the vertical axis - provided the height (extension of the delimiting element parallel to the vertical axis) of the delimiting element remains unchanged - the size of the at least one receiving space can be controlled. The smaller the angle is selected, the smaller the receiving space becomes - with a constant height of the delimiting element - and the less bulk material is generally present in the receiving space in the operating state. If the angle is chosen to be larger, the receiving space is also enlarged, and the receiving space can have more bulk material in the operating state.
The angle between the at least one delimiting element and the vertical axis also has an effect on the stability of the raised bed according to the invention, since the raised bed is smaller and more stable the smaller the angle is selected.
That is to say, the angle between the at least one delimiting element and the vertical axis is to be selected as a function of the desired size of the receiving space and as a function of the desired stability.
A raised bed is exposed to different weather conditions over an entire annual cycle. Rain and snow as well as sun put a strain on the material and can affect the condition of the surface. A raised bed made of a metallic material is largely insensitive to weather damage. Therefore, in a preferred embodiment of the raised bed according to the invention, it is provided that the frame body and / or the at least one flat delimiting element is made from a metallic material, in particular from sheet steel.
It would be conceivable that the steel sheet is galvanized.
The steel sheet is preferably made of stainless steel, of stainless steel or of Corten steel. However, it is also possible that the metallic material is an aluminum sheet, in particular made of an aluminum alloy.
The use of metallic materials is advantageous because they are not only - as already written above - durable, but also have high strength and stability, whereby the weight of the bulk material permanently without deforming the frame and / or the at least one flat Limiting element is worn.
It is not excluded that at least individual elements of the raised bed according to the invention are made of plastic.
In a preferred embodiment of the raised bed according to the invention it is provided that the raised bed comprises at least three planar delimiting elements, which planar delimiting elements are detachably connected to the frame body.
By using at least three two-dimensional boundary surfaces, it is possible to enlarge the at least one receiving space accordingly and to make more planting area available.
It would, however, also be possible to create at least three receiving spaces between the at least three planar delimiting elements and the frame body. It would be conceivable here that each of the at least three planar delimiting elements together with the frame body each forms a receiving space.
The at least three planar delimitation elements are releasably connected to the frame body. As already written above, it is preferably a matter of screw connections, which are characterized, for example, by their low cost, by their ease of detachment and by a variable pretensioning force.
In a preferred embodiment of the raised bed according to the invention it is provided that the frame body is constructed from at least three frame elements, which at least three frame elements are detachably connected to one another.
A significant advantage of a scaffold body, which is constructed from at least three releasably interconnected scaffolding elements, is its easy dismantling and its space-saving storage and space-saving transport. The individual dismantled scaffolding elements can namely be stored and transported in a space-saving manner, for example, arranged parallel to one another.
Furthermore, the framework elements can be designed essentially the same as one another, so that they can be easily constructed and inexpensively manufactured. A floor plan of the framework body with a regular polygonal shape can be implemented particularly easily in this way, for example.
The framework elements are also preferably connected to one another by means of a screw connection. The advantages resulting therefrom have already been dealt with further above and can be applied to this embodiment.
It is particularly preferred in the raised bed according to the invention that a delimitation element detachably connected to the respective frame element protrudes from each of the at least three frame elements.
In this embodiment there is either an enlarged receiving space or several, at least three, receiving spaces are created between the delimitation elements and the frame element.
As already mentioned above, screw connections are preferably used for the releasable connection.
In a preferred embodiment of the raised bed according to the invention it is provided that the raised bed comprises at least one further frame body, two frame bodies following one another along the vertical axis being arranged congruently or one above the other with an angular offset.
In principle, what has been said above about the framework, in particular with regard to the material and structure, applies to at least one further framework.
When several scaffolding bodies are arranged one above the other along the vertical axis, at least two receiving spaces are created which can be planted with plants in the operating state and are at least partially arranged one behind the other as seen along the vertical axis.
It would be conceivable that all successive framework bodies are arranged congruently one above the other. That is to say, the raised bed according to the invention has at least two, preferably several, frame bodies in this case, all of which are arranged congruently one above the other.
It would also be conceivable that two consecutive frame bodies are always arranged one above the other with an angular offset. That is to say, the raised bed according to the invention has in this case at least two, preferably several, framework bodies, two of the successive framework bodies being arranged one above the other with an angular offset. In this case, the at least two framework bodies are arranged one above the other in the manner of a winding or in a helical manner.
However, a combination of the two variants described above would also be conceivable. That is, in such a case, the raised bed according to the invention has at least three, preferably more than three, scaffolding bodies, a first and a second scaffolding body being arranged congruently or with an angular offset one above the other and the second and a further scaffolding body being arranged with an angular offset or congruently one above the other . The possible further scaffolding bodies can be arranged one above the other as desired - i.e. either congruently or with an angular offset.
In this case, the corresponding framework bodies are arranged differently on top of one another - the first and the second congruent and the second and the third with an angular offset or the first and the second with an angular offset and the second and the third congruent. These combinations can be continued as required for other scaffolding bodies. That is, the raised bed according to the invention is variable / expandable as required along the vertical axis.
It is particularly advantageous if two scaffolding bodies that follow one another along the vertical axis are arranged one above the other with an angular offset, since this arrangement creates at least two receiving spaces, the angular offset of the scaffolding bodies also causing the receiving spaces to be at least partially offset one above the other. This can increase the likelihood that the leaves of a planting will at least not completely cover the receiving space underneath, as a result of which the plants have more space and, above all, light available.
In the raised bed according to the invention, it is particularly preferred that at least the at least one further frame body comprises at least one fixing element in order to lock and / or releasably connect two frame bodies that follow one another along the vertical axis.
The at least one fixing element is used for alignment and / or the releasable connection of two consecutive frame bodies. In this embodiment variant, too, a screw connection is preferably used to produce the detachable connection by means of a fixing element.
The fixing element can be, for example, an area of the frame body that protrudes from a support surface of the frame body at least in sections against the direction of the vertical axis - that is, in the operating state of the raised bed in the direction of gravity. The corresponding area can have at least one through opening for the arrangement of a screw connection.
It is particularly preferably provided in the raised bed according to the invention that the at least one fixing element is arranged in order to produce a form fit between two scaffold bodies that follow one another along the vertical axis.
A corresponding form fit is created by the interlocking of two frame bodies following one another along the vertical axis, as a result of which the frame bodies do not loosen even with or without an interrupted transmission of force. This is achieved in the present embodiment by the fixing element in such a way that the fixing element of a rear frame body viewed in the direction of the vertical axis is in operative connection (form fit) with a frame body located directly in front of it, viewed in the direction of the vertical axis.
In a preferred embodiment of the raised bed according to the invention it is provided that the raised bed comprises at least one separating element, which separating element is arranged between two receiving spaces as viewed in a direction of rotation about the vertical axis. This means that the separating element separates two receiving spaces laterally from one another, whereby the receiving spaces can be planted with different plants, for example.
In addition, the separating elements also contribute to increased stability of the raised bed according to the invention and protect the planting, at least in sections, from wind and weather.
In a preferred embodiment of the raised bed according to the invention it is provided that the frame body and / or at least one further frame body comprises at least one cover plate, the cover plate protruding along a transverse axis, preferably pointing into a center of the respective frame body, the transverse axis at least has a directional component, which directional component is normal to the vertical axis.
Depending on the height at which the at least one cover plate is arranged on the frame body and / or on the further frame body, this serves as a support surface or as a support surface. That is, by means of the cover plate, the scaffold body and / or the at least one additional scaffold body can be set up either securely on the subsurface or on a scaffold body arranged directly in front of it along the vertical axis - here the cover plate serves as a support surface. However, it would also be possible for the cover plate of the frame body and / or of the at least one further frame body to serve as a support surface for a frame body arranged behind it, viewed along the vertical axis.
The at least one cover plate is preferably arranged on an edge of the framework and / or of the at least one further framework that extends transversely to the vertical axis.
In the context of this invention, transverse axis is to be understood as any axis which is arranged transversely to the vertical axis and is linear. That means there are innumerable cross axes.
In the raised bed according to the invention, it is particularly preferred that the framework body and / or the at least one further framework body comprises at least two cover plates lying opposite one another.
In particular, viewed along the vertical axis, the framework body and / or the at least one further framework body can have a front and a rear cover plate.
The cover plates are preferably arranged on those edges of the framework body and / or of the at least one further framework body, which edges are most spaced apart from one another along the vertical axis.
In the case of two frame bodies arranged one after the other along the vertical axis, the cover plates serve as support surfaces or as support surfaces. The first scaffold body, seen along the vertical axis, can be securely set up on the ground by means of that cover plate which is arranged first along the vertical axis. The cover plate of the first frame body arranged behind it along the vertical axis serves as a support surface for the second frame body viewed along the vertical axis, in particular for that cover plate of the second frame body which is arranged first along the vertical axis. This means that the cover plates enable two or more scaffolding bodies to be easily and safely arranged one above the other along the vertical axis.
It would also be possible that with two frame bodies arranged one after the other along the vertical axis, that frame body which is arranged further back along the vertical axis has a smaller diameter than the frame body which is arranged in front of it along the vertical axis. In such a case, the raised bed according to the invention tapers along the vertical axis. By means of the cover plates, the frame bodies can be safely arranged one above the other along the vertical axis despite the taper.
Of course, it is also not ruled out that two scaffold bodies following one another along the vertical axis have the same diameter and the raised bed according to the invention nevertheless tapers. In this case, the tapering is controlled via the length of the delimitation elements - the delimitation elements of the scaffold body arranged first along the vertical axis are in this case longer than the delimitation elements of the scaffold body arranged immediately afterwards along the vertical axis. The delimitation elements can have length differences of 50 mm to 400 mm, for example.
Preferably, the cover plates do not cover the entire frame body or the at least one further frame body, in particular the corresponding interior space, but merely form a projection, which projection points along the transverse axis from the corresponding frame body to the center.
The projection along the transverse axis can, for example, have a depth between 50 mm and 300 mm, preferably between 100 mm and 200 mm.
In the raised bed according to the invention, it is particularly preferred that the at least three frame elements of the frame body and / or at least three frame elements of the at least one further frame body each comprise two cover plates lying opposite one another. This ensures a uniform arrangement of the cover plates, which enables two scaffolding bodies to be securely arranged one behind the other along the vertical axis.
As already mentioned above, two frame bodies that follow one another along the vertical axis can be arranged congruently or one above the other with an angular offset. In order to enable a continuous rotation of two scaffolding bodies arranged one after the other along the vertical axis, it is particularly preferred in the raised bed according to the invention that at least one cover plate of the scaffolding body and / or of the at least one further scaffolding body has a, preferably curved, elongated hole for connecting two along the vertical axis includes successive framework bodies. With the help of the at least one elongated hole, two scaffolding bodies that follow one another along the vertical axis can be connected to one another simply and securely and rotated against one another, in particular continuously.
The at least one elongated hole can have different shapes, but it is preferably curved.
It would be conceivable that the frame body arranged first along the vertical axis has a rear cover plate, seen along the vertical axis, which comprises a connecting pin, which connecting pin is at least partially aligned parallel to the vertical axis and has an external thread. Of course, it would also be possible that the connecting pin is not arranged on the cover plate but directly on an edge of the corresponding frame body. In the case of a scaffold body arranged directly behind it, viewed along the vertical axis, a front cover plate, viewed along the vertical axis, in turn comprises a curved elongated hole. In order to connect the two frame bodies with one another, the connecting pin is first inserted through the elongated hole. The two frame bodies are then aligned with one another and a counter-element with an internal thread, for example a nut, is screwed onto the connecting pin.
The cover plates of two scaffold bodies following one another along the vertical axis preferably each have at least one elongated hole, these cover plates being arranged one behind the other along the vertical axis. The frame bodies can be connected to one another by means of the elongated holes and a screw connection, for example a bolt and a nut.
It would be conceivable that the elongated holes are part-circular.
The longer a curved elongated hole, the greater the possibility of rotation.
Preferably, with the aid of the elongated holes in the raised bed according to the invention, two scaffolding bodies following one another along the vertical axis can be rotated against one another by up to 90 °, in particular continuously. Preferably, the connection of the two scaffolding bodies made via the respective elongated hole does not have to be completely loosened; instead, it is sufficient, for example, to loosen the screw connection in order to achieve the rotation with the aid of the elongated hole.
It would be conceivable, for example, that two cover plates, arranged directly one behind the other along the vertical axis, of two scaffolding bodies following one another along the vertical axis each have a curved elongated hole, which elongated hole enables a rotation of 45 ° - that is, in this case, the two can in total along the vertical axis successively arranged scaffolding bodies are rotated by up to 90 °, in particular continuously.
Even larger angles of rotation of the two successive frame bodies are not excluded in the embodiments mentioned, but require a release of any connection that may be present via one or more elongated holes.
In a preferred embodiment of the raised bed according to the invention it is provided that the at least one planar delimiting element comprises at least one first fold section for connection to the frame body or to at least one further frame body.
The first fold section is preferably arranged at least in sections along a longitudinal edge of the delimiting element. The longitudinal edge is that edge of the delimiting element which is arranged along the longitudinal extent of the delimiting element.
The wider the first rebate section, the easier it is to connect the at least one flat delimiting element to the frame body. In addition, the stiffness of the delimiting element also increases due to a wide rebate section.
In order to enable a simple and secure connection of two delimitation elements arranged next to one another, it is particularly preferably provided in the raised bed according to the invention that the at least one flat delimitation element comprises at least one second folded section. That is, the second fold section serves to connect two delimitation elements to one another.
In a preferred embodiment of the raised bed according to the invention it is provided that the frame body and / or at least one further frame body comprises at least two holes for connecting the at least one planar delimiting element to the frame body and / or to the further frame body, the two holes in are spaced apart from one another in a direction transverse to the vertical axis, the two holes preferably being arranged along the vertical axis at the same height. By means of the holes, the delimiting element can be easily mounted on the frame body and / or on the further frame body.
It would be conceivable that the delimitation element, in particular the first rebate element, has corresponding holes so that the delimitation element can be mounted on the frame body, for example by means of a bolt and a nut.
It is particularly preferably provided in the raised bed according to the invention that the frame body and / or the at least one further frame body comprises at least two further holes, the two further holes being spaced apart from one another in the direction transverse to the vertical axis, the two further holes and the two holes seen along the vertical axis, preferably exactly, are arranged one behind the other. This arrangement enables an individual height adjustment of the at least one delimiting element. The two holes and the two further holes can be arranged exactly one behind the other or laterally offset from one another, as seen along the vertical axis.
It would be conceivable that when using a plurality of frame bodies, each of which has the at least two holes and the at least two further holes, the delimiting elements on each frame body are arranged at a different height.
Furthermore, it would of course be conceivable for each frame element of a frame body to have the holes and the further holes. This makes it possible, for example, for at least two delimitation elements to be arranged on a frame body, each at a different height. The first of the two delimitation elements would in this case be arranged on the two holes, while the second of the two delimitation elements is mounted on the other holes.

WAYS OF CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
1 shows an axonometric view of three framework bodies 2, 2 a - a framework body 2 and two further framework bodies 2a - of a first exemplary embodiment of a raised bed 1 according to the invention.
Each of the three framework bodies 2, 2 a extends along a vertical axis 4 and has an octagonal basic shape or an octagonal plan. The three frame bodies 2, 2 a are arranged along the vertical axis 4 in such a way that in each case two frame bodies 2, 2 a successive along the vertical axis 4 are arranged one above the other with an angular offset. That is, in the first exemplary embodiment, all three frame bodies 2, 2a are arranged alternately offset one above the other. In this context, it should be mentioned that any number of further framework bodies 2a can be arranged one above the other along the vertical axis 4.
Each of the three frame bodies 2, 2 a is made up of four frame elements 7, which are connected to one another by means of screw connections. Each frame element 7 has two recesses 9.
Furthermore, each of the frame elements 7 has a fixing element 5 for locking, which protrudes from a support surface of the respective frame element 7 against the direction of the vertical axis 4 - that is, in the operating state of the raised bed 1 in the direction of gravity. The fixing elements 5 serve to align two consecutive frame bodies 2, 2 a and can be provided with screws to produce a detachable connection.
Fig. 2 shows an axonometric view of a second embodiment of the raised bed 1 according to the invention. The raised bed 1 according to the invention comprises five frame bodies 2, 2 a and 24 planar delimiting elements 3 in the second embodiment, the five frame bodies 2, 2 a in structure and in the Arrangement correspond to the three frame bodies 2, 2 a from the first exemplary embodiment, with the difference that in the second exemplary embodiment, in comparison to the first exemplary embodiment, two additional further frame bodies 2 a are present.
In the second exemplary embodiment, four planar delimitation elements 3 each protrude from the first four frame bodies 2, 2a, seen in the direction of the vertical axis 4, in such a way that four receiving spaces 6 are formed per frame body 2, 2a, one of the four boundary elements 3 being screwed together with one of the four frame elements 7 - more precisely, with one of two straight extending edges of the respective frame element 7 that enclose an obtuse angle - is connected. Each of the four receiving spaces 6 is therefore formed between a flat delimitation element 3 and two scaffolding elements 7 arranged one behind the other as seen in a direction of rotation about the vertical axis 4.
From the fifth frame body 2a, seen in the direction of the vertical axis 4, eight planar delimitation elements 3 protrude in such a way that four receiving spaces 6 and a filling space 12 are formed, two of the eight delimitation elements 3 being connected to one of the four framework elements 7 by means of a screw connection . Four of the eight delimitation elements 3, viewed in the direction of the vertical axis 4, are arranged on a rear area of the framework body 2a such that the filling space 12 is formed between these four delimitation elements 3 and is arranged above the fifth framework body 2a.
The other four of the eight delimitation elements 3 are in turn arranged in the direction of the vertical axis 4 on a front area of the scaffold body 2a such that between one delimitation element 2 and two scaffold elements 7 arranged one behind the other in a direction of rotation about the vertical axis 4 a receiving space 6 forms.
In addition, two delimitation elements 3 which follow one another in a direction of rotation about the vertical axis 4 are screwed together.
The raised bed 1 according to the invention thus has a total of 20 receiving spaces 6 and the filling space 12 in this exemplary embodiment.
In an operating state in which the receiving spaces 6 and the filling space 12 are open in an area towards the top - ie against the direction of gravity - each receiving space 6 or the filling space 12 and possibly an interior space 8 of the framework body 2, 2a with bulk material, preferably with earth, filled.
As in the first exemplary embodiment, each of the frame elements 7 has two recesses 9 which connect the respective receiving space 6 with the interior 8 of the associated frame body 2, 2 a, whereby in the operating state bulk goods are both in the respective receiving space 6 and in the filling space 12 as well as in the interior 8 can be located.
In this exemplary embodiment, the framework bodies 2, 2 a do not have a base cover, so that the bulk material is in contact with a subsurface in the operating state.
In the second exemplary embodiment, the delimiting elements 3 have a thickness of 1 mm and are reinforced with reinforcing elements 10. In the second exemplary embodiment, each of the 24 delimitation elements 3 has two struts which serve as reinforcement elements 10. The struts are part of the respective planar delimitation elements 3. Two struts per delimitation element 3 run diagonally towards one another to form a longitudinal extension of the corresponding delimitation element 3.
Each of the planar delimiting elements 3 forms an angle α of approximately 55 ° with the vertical axis 4. As a result, on the one hand, sufficiently large receiving spaces 6 are created and, on the other hand, the stability of the raised bed 1 according to the invention is ensured.
Both the frame body 2, 2 a and the planar delimiting elements 3 are made of stainless steel sheet in this exemplary embodiment in order to withstand the weather conditions and to ensure sufficient strength and stability.
In addition, the raised bed according to the invention has 20 separating elements 11 in the second exemplary embodiment. In each case four separating elements 11 are arranged between the four receiving spaces 6, which are formed by four boundary surfaces 3 and one of the framework bodies 2, 2 a. The separating elements 11 contribute to increased stability of the raised bed 1 according to the invention and protect the planting from wind, at least in sections.
3 shows an axonometric view of framework bodies 2, 2 a of a third exemplary embodiment of the raised bed 1 according to the invention.
Each of the three frame bodies 2, 2 a extends along the vertical axis 4 and has an octagonal basic shape. The three frame bodies 2, 2 a are arranged along the vertical axis 4 in such a way that in each case two frame bodies 2, 2 a successive along the vertical axis 4 are arranged congruently one above the other. That is to say, in the third exemplary embodiment, all three frame bodies 2, 2a are arranged congruently one above the other. In this context, it should be mentioned that any number of further framework bodies 2a can be arranged one above the other along the vertical axis 4.
Each of the three frame bodies 2, 2 a is made up of four frame elements 7, which are connected to one another by means of screw connections. Each frame element 7 has two recesses 9.
Furthermore, each of the frame elements 7 - as in the first embodiment - has a fixing element 10 for locking, which protrudes from a support surface of the respective frame element 7 against the direction of the vertical axis 4 - that is, in the operating state of the raised bed 1 in the direction of gravity .

In the third embodiment, the raised bed 1 according to the invention comprises the three frame bodies 2, 2 a and twelve flat delimiting elements 3, the three frame bodies 2, 2 a in structure and in the arrangement corresponds to the three frame bodies 2, 2 a from FIG. 3.
From the three frame bodies 2, 2a, four delimitation elements 3 protrude in such a way that a continuous or circumferential receiving space 6 is formed for each frame body 2, 2a, with one of the four delimitation elements 3 being screwed to one of the four stand elements 7 connected is. In addition, two delimitation elements 3, which follow one another in a direction of rotation about the vertical axis 4, are screwed together. The one receiving space 6 per frame body 2.2a is formed between the four delimitation elements 3 and the corresponding frame body 2.2a.
The raised bed 1 according to the invention thus has, in this exemplary embodiment, three receiving spaces 6 arranged one above the other.
In the operating state in which the receiving spaces 6 are open in an area upwards - i.e. against the direction of gravity - each receiving space 6 can be filled with bulk material, preferably with earth.
As mentioned, each of the frame elements 7 has two recesses 9 which connect the respective receiving space 6 to the interior 8 of the frame body 2, 2 a, whereby bulk material can be located both in the respective receiving space 6 and in the interior 8 in the operating state.
In this exemplary embodiment, as in the second exemplary embodiment, the framework bodies 2, 2 a do not include a floor cover, so that the bulk material is in contact with a subsurface in the operating state.
In the exemplary embodiment in FIG. 4, the delimiting elements 3 have a thickness of 1.5 mm and are reinforced with reinforcing elements 10. In this exemplary embodiment, each of the twelve delimitation elements 3 has two struts which serve as reinforcement elements 10. The struts are part of the respective flat delimiting elements 3, two struts per delimiting element 3 running diagonally towards one another to form a longitudinal extension of the corresponding delimiting element 3.
Each of the planar delimiting elements 3 forms an angle α of approximately 45 ° with the vertical axis 4. As a result, on the one hand, sufficiently large receiving spaces 6 are created and, on the other hand, the stability of the raised bed 1 according to the invention is ensured.
In this exemplary embodiment, both the frame bodies 2, 2 a and the planar delimiting elements 3 are made of stainless steel sheet in order to withstand the weather conditions and to ensure sufficient strength and stability.
In FIGS. 1 to 4 - that is, in the first, second and third exemplary embodiment - the framework elements 7 each have two segments 20 which enclose an obtuse angle with one another, each segment 20 having a recess 9. Correspondingly, the two segments 20 form a corner in the plan of the respective framework element 7, or the four framework elements 7 form four of the eight corners in the plan of the framework body 2.
The four scaffolding elements 7 are connected to one another in such a way that, viewed in a direction of rotation about the vertical axis 4, two consecutive scaffolding elements 7, more precisely a segment 20 of one scaffolding element 7 with the abutting segment 20 of the subsequent scaffolding element 7, in turn a truncated one Include angles with each other, whereby the remaining four of the eight corners are formed in the plan of the frame body 2.
5 shows an axonometric view of three framework bodies 2, 2 a of a fourth exemplary embodiment of the raised bed 1 according to the invention.
Each of the three framework bodies 2, 2 a extends along the vertical axis 4 and has an octagonal basic shape or an octagonal plan. The three frame bodies 2, 2 a are arranged along the vertical axis 4 in such a way that in each case two frame bodies 2, 2 a successive along the vertical axis 4 are arranged one above the other with an angular offset. That is to say, in the fourth exemplary embodiment, two frame bodies 2, 2a are arranged one above the other, mutually offset.
Each of the three frame bodies 2, 2 a is made up of four frame elements 7, which are connected to one another by means of screw connections. Each frame element 7 has three recesses 9.
All frame elements 7 each comprise two cover plates 13, which are arranged on those edges of the frame elements 7, which edges are furthest apart from one another along the vertical axis 4. All cover plates 13 protrude along a transverse axis 14 and point to a center of the respective frame body 2, 2 a.
Each cover plate 13 has a partially circular elongated hole 15 with which two frame bodies 2, 2 a successive along the vertical axis 4 can be easily and securely connected to one another and rotated relative to one another.
Furthermore, each frame element 7 has 18 holes 17, 17a for connecting the delimitation element 3 to the respective frame element 7, two holes 17 being spaced apart in a direction transverse to the vertical axis 4 and arranged along the vertical axis 4 at the same height are. In addition, as seen along the vertical axis 4, eight further holes 17a are arranged exactly one behind the other behind each hole 17. This arrangement enables an individual height adjustment of the corresponding delimiting element 3. By means of two holes 17, 17a, which are arranged along the vertical axis 4 at the same height, the corresponding delimiting element 3 can be simply mounted on two scaffolding elements 7 that rotate in one direction around the vertical axis 4 are arranged one after the other as seen. It is thus possible for the delimitation elements 3 to be mounted at different heights on each frame body 2, 2 a.
6 shows an axonometric view of frame bodies 2, 2 a of a fifth embodiment of the raised bed 1 according to the invention. The fifth embodiment corresponds to the fourth embodiment with the difference that the frame bodies 2, 2 a have different diameters and not along the vertical axis 4 are arranged rotated to each other one above the other. The first frame body 2, seen along the vertical axis 4, has the largest diameter. The frame body 2a located directly behind it along the vertical axis 4 has a smaller diameter and the frame body 2a, which is arranged farthest to the rear, as seen along the vertical axis 4, has the smallest diameter. As a result of this arrangement, the raised bed 1 according to the invention tapers in the fifth exemplary embodiment along the vertical axis 4.
7 shows an axonometric view of a sixth exemplary embodiment of the raised bed 1 according to the invention, the raised bed 1 having three frame bodies 2, 2 a (not visible in FIG. 7) which are arranged congruently one above the other along the vertical axis 4 and each have the same diameter, includes. A plurality of delimitation elements 3 are arranged on each of the framework bodies 2, 2 a, a front view of a delimitation element 3 of the sixth exemplary embodiment being shown in FIG. 8.
The delimitation element 3 of the sixth embodiment comprises a first folded section 16 for connection to one of the framework bodies 2, 2a and a second folded section 16a for connection to an adjacent delimiting element 3.

The delimitation elements 3 of the sixth exemplary embodiment are mounted at different heights on the framework bodies 2, 2 a by means of the holes 17, 17 a. On the first frame body 2 seen along the vertical axis 4, the delimiting elements 3 are arranged at the first holes 17 seen along the vertical axis 4. On the second frame body 2a, seen along the vertical axis 4, the delimiting elements 3 are arranged at the fifth holes 17a, seen along the vertical axis 4. In addition, further delimiting elements 3 are arranged on the second frame body 2a at the ninth holes 17a seen along the vertical axis 4. On the third frame body 2a, seen along the vertical axis 4, the delimiting elements 3 are arranged at the ninth holes 17a, seen along the vertical axis 4. With the help of the holes 17, 17a, it is therefore possible to mount the delimiting elements 3 on the framework bodies 2, 2a at different heights. In the sixth embodiment there are four levels on which delimiting elements 3 with the framework bodies 2, 2 a are mounted. The distances x, x ', x' 'between the planes can be varied by means of the holes 17, 17a.
In Fig. 5 to Fig. 8 - that is, in the fourth, fifth and sixth embodiment - each frame element 7 has three segments 20, two of which enclose an obtuse angle with one another (in a sequence in one direction of rotation about the vertical axis 4 seen, the first segment 20 forms an obtuse angle with the second and the second with the third segment 20). Correspondingly, the three segments 20 form two corners in the plan of the respective scaffold element 7, or the four scaffold elements 7 form (all) eight corners in the plan of the scaffold body 2.
Each segment 20 also has a recess 9. The four scaffolding elements 7 are connected to one another in such a way that two consecutive scaffolding elements 7, more precisely a segment 20 of the one scaffolding element 7 with the abutting segment 20 of the subsequent scaffolding element 7, adjoin one another flush in a direction of rotation about the vertical axis 4, so that a Angle of 180 ° is included and no additional corners are formed in the plan of the frame body 2.
Because of the flush connection, the delimitation elements 3 can be connected / screwed to two different, successive frame elements 7.
