Description

The The invention relates to a holder for natural flowers, twigs branches, fruits as well Decoration material with a handle-shaped handle on the one Holding part is arranged, in which a plug foam body hydrophilic or hydrophobic foam plastic used and means a grid basket is attached.

in the The area of wedding floristry is known to bridal bouquet owners who are essentially a stalk-shaped Handle, which is hollow or made of solid material, have, attached to which a plug-foam body by means of a grid-shaped basket is. For the production of floral arrangements is the Steckschaumkörper with Flowers, branches, branches, fruits and decoration material, with the floral foam in front of the Watering watered becomes.

So will in the DE 9012834 U1 the Applicant a bouquet carrier shown, which consists of a handle and a hinged at its end conical or kugelkalottenartigen shell with basket, wherein a plug foam body is housed in the basket. Furthermore, in the US 5070644 describes another bouquet carrier, which consists of a handle and a conically shaped shell at the end, in which a plug-foam body is held by a cylindrical cage.

Of the The main disadvantage of this known embodiment is that as a result of the relatively small amount of foam plug the water, with the the floral foam soaked is consumed very quickly. A rewet, e.g. from above, is after the cutlery almost impossible. But that the flowers for their use, e.g. For the wedding party are fresh, it is therefore necessary that the arrangements are put in the short term before the employment. These short-term production of bouquets is in many make problematic. A pre-production of about one to two days is almost not possible.

Of the Invention is the object of such a holder so train that pre-production of floral arrangements for a long time possible before use is and in this case a needs-based supply the inserted natural Flowers, twigs, branches, fruit and the like with water ensured is.

These The object is achieved according to the invention in that the floral foam body a rod-shaped approach has, which is arranged in the hollow handle formed and that the handle provided with at least one closable opening is.

A advantageous embodiment provides that the handle at its lower end to close the opening one has removable and tight attachable cap.

Farther It is advantageous that the handle is divided and the parts are pluggable.

Advantageous one proceeds in such a way that the handle has closures which can be closed tightly by means of stoppers.

Also can in an advantageous embodiment of the handle to the Upper part of the foam body be angled, the rod-shaped approach of the floral foam body accordingly bevel the upper part is arranged.

 The Invention will in the following description with reference to in the Drawings illustrated embodiments explained in more detail.

It demonstrate,

1 a first embodiment of such a holder in exploded perspective view,

2 a view of a foam body according to the invention,

3 a view of the holder with removed bottom part of the handle,

4 a view of the holder with a modified embodiment of the handle,

5 a holder in which the head of the foam body is angled to the handle, in exploded perspective view,

6 a view of in 5 shown embodiment.

The in the 1 to 4 Holder shown has essentially a hollow handle-shaped handle 3 at the upper end of a lattice-shaped holding part 2 is formed. The handle can be made of plastic, wood, appropriately treated cardboard or other materials.

The handle 3 and the holding part 2 take a suitably trained Steckschaumkör by 1 on, which consists of a hydrophilic or hydrophobic foam plastic. This foam body 1 has a crowned enlarged upper part 10 , which is used for cutlery with flowers and the like. This shell 10 may have a variety of shapes, such as hemispherical, truncated, cylindrical, cuboid and the like, with its underside 11 for receiving the holding part 2 is shaped accordingly. To the bottom 11 closes in the middle a rod-shaped approach 5 on inside the hollow grab handle 3 is arranged and as far as possible to the lower end of the handle 3 enough. In the in the 1 and 3 respectively. 5 and 6 the embodiment shown, the handle is in an upper part 7 and a lower part 8th divided and the lower part 8th can take off and the opening 6 then by attaching the part 8th on the upper part 7 close again tightly.

For attaching the upper part 10 the foam body 1 on the holding part 2 serves a grid basket 4 which is on the holding part 2 is attached for example by clipping. The grid basket 4 can be made of plastic, wire, twine, hemp and the like.

To the water supply of the natural flowers and the like becomes the lower part 8th removed the handle and put the holder in a water tank, so that the upper part 10 the foam body 1 over the rod-shaped approach 5 Water is supplied permanently and the flowers remain fresh longer and the bouquets can be made several days before.

For the access of water to the approach 5 There are of course for the training of the handle a variety of ways. Such a possibility is in addition to in the 1 and 3 , respectively. 5 and 6 shown embodiment in 4 represented, wherein at the lower end of the handle a cap 9 for opening or closing the opening 6 attached or screwed on. But it can also be provided at other locations of the handle closable openings, which allows access of the water to the floral foam body 1 guarantee.

In the in the 5 and 6 embodiment shown is the handle 3 to the top 10 the foam body 1 tilted, with the rod-shaped approach 5 corresponding obliquely to the top 10 is arranged. Otherwise, however, the described features arise.
