Description

container
preferably for plants and flower arrangements.

The invention relates to a container, preferably for holding plants and flower arrangements

In gardeners and florists it is more and more common for containers to be used commonly referred to as bowls, goblets, basins and vases, etc. Such containers are intended to Fulfill the purpose of use, but otherwise be cheap. So far, these containers have been made of raw or glazed ! Don made. In particular, the latter in its interior does not have any resistance to holding on to earth or other materials, but above all is desirable and necessary when transporting the filled container.

According to the invention it is proposed that the container from a thermoplastic polymerisation product with solid

style-like structure with closed pores "consists and that at least the lower part of the inner wall of the container has a rough, preferably profiled surface please.

These tanks are thermally insulated _r can in all! Be colored romp, are resistant to impacts and can be nlt or produced without external scrutiny or Temierttng "Si · can be produced with nlctrlgen costs by casting or spraying.

In contrast to the previously common clay pots are easy to handle during transport and storage.

In their basic design, the containers are also suitable for other purposes. You can can be used with or without a lid.

If thermoplastics are in themselves a smooth material, the corresponding shaping of the The inner wall of the container has been given a rough or profiled surface to protect the contents of the container if possible even if the container B.B. to be held! during transport. PUr this Profiling different solutions are scored according to the invention, but these are only examples and are not to be understood as limiting.

An advantageous embodiment is that

the profiled inner surface with closely spaced circular

shaped grooves is provided. Another embodiment is required. this inner surface with ridges is made up of oval and conical cusps, which are arranged like a checkerboard in the vertical direction, according to a further feature, the cross section the stool is low at the bottom of the container and facing upwards ranch sunims. A further embodiment consists in a grain-like profile. Yet another solution is that the profiling from the bottom of the The container consists of spirally rising grooves whose | The angle of inclination is advantageously about 30 °.

Another characteristic is that the entire inner surface is provided with the profile. Pieces I characteristic are suitable for certain shapes of wide or slightly conical tubes. All these profiles must be designed in such a way that they do not detach from the mold during manufacture of the container. ^{Depending on the Zi 1} OiTi and the A '.> N: 3 sinks of the container, the frofiling can be carried out with the most varied of modifications in terms of their height, their or their thickness.

Bine further advantageous Aiiagestaltiing the invention besteh: that is upper edge of the container is provided with a ring-ö :: i 'iigon collar, wherein erlcial the collar is formed in one piece with dea container according to another or • according to a! other Xorkaal the covenant is formed as a S; eao; icl-3i * te3 component and by clergy, welding or gluing

According to a further advantageous feature are the inner circumference of the federal government adapted and attachable to this Tabs are provided, wherein according to a further embodiment, the tabs are pin-like fastening elements which can be used in fastening holes provided on the collar. Yet another preferred embodiment consists in that the tabs are provided with holes in which support or holding wires, rods or the like can be used,

Another feature is the bottom of the container provided with at least one prepared, permeable water inlet opening.

On the basis of the following description of the exemplary embodiments of the invention shown in the drawing this explained in more detail.

9 shows a schematic representation of the arrangement the water holes in the bottom of the tank.

The container shown in FIG. 1 has a total of 12 designated. It consists of a bowl-shaped part 14 and a collar attached to it by clamping, gluing or welding 1. At the bottom of the cup-shaped rope 14, a ring 11 is formed, with respect to which the container bottom 15 is set back. About the bottom half the inner wall of the shell-shaped part 14 is provided with a profile in the form of a grain 9, which creates a sufficiently rough surface to hold soil or other materials in place.

The upper hand of the cup-shaped part 14 is smooth or designed with a circumferential lip 16 (Pig. 5) Sem cross-section of this upper edge 7 correspondingly a groove 7a is formed on the underside of the collar 1, in which the upper edge 7 of the part 14 can engage. A bead made of colored polyethylene is in a recess of the upper band used.

Pins 3 with a conical or triangular head in section can be inserted into prepared holes 5 in TTm-Pn ^ g 2 of the federal government 1 are used »The collar 1 has an inwardly protruding edge 17, the upper surface 6 inward is inclined so that with excessive watering the water can flow back inwards.

They in groups to jο three holes at intervals of 120 ° arranged holes 5 allow the attachment of brackets 8 (Fig. 4) · These brackets 8 have

Bores 4 through which a wire can be drawn or through which semi-flat or cylindrical rods, sB Bambuoart, can be inserted, or metallic rods with sufficient flexibility, depending on the intended purpose. The wires, preferably made of annealed, galvanized or lacquered egg wire to prevent rust formation in the presence of moisture, can be used to protect or support flower arrangements. The chopsticks or rods can also perform the same tasks. Various materials can also be pinned with them.

The tabs can also be used for various purposes, but preferably to hold natural or artificial hoos or other materials will. The shape of the tabs is suitably adapted to the shape of the container and its size. Two shapes are shown in FIG. 4, for example.

At the bottom of the container is a central hole 10 or a group of holes 10 (Fig. 9) prepared for larger containers. The holes shouldn't be 3mm in diameter exceed so that soil or other materials cannot escape in large quantities during irrigation. In the larger containers, in addition to the central hole 3, there are also 3 holes 10 at angular intervals clay 120 ° prepared. The holes can vary depending on the user his special needs or intentions are pierced.

Upon request, the containers can also be made without detachable ?. Federation

(Pig. 7 and 8), but in Upper edge also holes 5 are provided and the tabs 8 can be attached in the same Welse. The holes on the underside are also provided in the same way.

On the outer surface, the containers can be provided with a profile, an ornament or a pattern in a shape similar to that on the inner surface. In addition, it is useful if the respective container size - is noted on the outside - in order to report errors in the selection of the respectively desired container. It can be used as, for example, the ßrößenabatufung Durchme3serrelhe 6, 8, 1O ₁ 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 24, 28, 32, are chosen cm 37 and 42, with larger diameter are quite possibl.
