Description

DK 171623 B1DK 171623 B1

Den foreliggende opfindelse angår en beholder til dyrkning af planter, hvilken beholder består af en potte, der omfatter en åbning, sider og en bund, som danner et indre volumen for potten, og en underskål der ligeledes omfatter 5 en åbning, sider og en bund, som danner et indre volumen for underskålen, og hvor potten og underskålen kan forskydes i forhold til hinanden, og hver er forsynet med organer, der er beregnet til at samvirke for at tilvejebringe en sammenkobling af potten og underskålen, 10 og hvor potten er forsynet med huller, der skaber forbindelse mellem det indre volumen af potten og det indre volumen af underskålen.The present invention relates to a container for growing plants which consists of a pot comprising an opening, sides and a bottom which forms an internal volume for the pot, and a saucer also comprising an opening, sides and a bottom. , which forms an inner volume for the saucer, and wherein the pot and saucer can be displaced relative to each other, and each is provided with means intended to cooperate to provide an interconnection of the pot and saucer, and wherein the pot is provided with holes that connect the inner volume of the pot to the inner volume of the saucer.

US 4.224.764 beskriver en sådan beholder til planter.US 4,224,764 discloses such a container for plants.

15 Beholderen omfatter således en potte og en underskål, der ved hjælp af dertil tilvejebragte organer kan kobles sammen og samtidig forskydes i forhold til hinanden. Forskellige udførelsesformer er illustreret og formålet med sammenkoblingsorganerne er udelukkende at muliggøre en 20 adskillelse henholdsvis samling af potten og underskålen.The container thus comprises a pot and a saucer which can be connected together by means provided therewith and at the same time displaced relative to each other. Various embodiments are illustrated and the purpose of the interconnecting means is to enable only a separation of the pot and the saucer respectively.

Ulempen ved denne beholder er, at det ikke er muligt i gartnerier at dyrke planter i beholdere med potten og underskålen sammenkoblet. Vanding i gartnerier foregår 25 hyppigt ved, at planten i potten selv suger vand op gennem potten fra et vandingsbord som beholderen står på og som er forsynet med et lag vand eventuelt indeholdt i en filtdug der er anbragt på vandingsbordet. Såfremt underskålen er koblet sammen med potten under dyrkningen i 30 gartneriet, er det nødvendigt, at der er adgang fra ydersiden af underskålen til det indre af potten for derigennem at tilføre vand til planten. Dette er ikke muligt med den beholder, der er beskrevet i ovennævnte US-patent.The disadvantage of this container is that it is not possible in nurseries to grow plants in containers with the pot and saucer interconnected. Watering in horticulture is often done by the plant in the pot itself sucking water up through the pot from an irrigation table on which the container stands and which is provided with a layer of water possibly contained in a felt cloth placed on the irrigation table. If the saucer is coupled with the pot during cultivation in the nursery, it is necessary to have access from the outside of the saucer to the interior of the pot to supply water to the plant. This is not possible with the container described in the aforementioned US patent.

35 AU 595669 beskriver en potte, der løser dette problem.35 AU 595669 describes a pot that solves this problem.

Potten er forsynet med en drænrist, der er placeret i det indre af potten. Drænristens placering medfører, at der tilvejebringes et reservoir mellem risten og pottens bund.The pot is provided with a drain grate located in the interior of the pot. The location of the drain grate causes a reservoir to be provided between the grate and the bottom of the pot.

2 DK 171623 B12 DK 171623 B1

Pottens bund er forsynet med huller, der skaber adgang mellem en yderside af potten og det indre af potten. Hullerne kan blokeres ved at montere propper i hullerne.The bottom of the pot is provided with holes that allow access between an outside of the pot and the inside of the pot. The holes can be blocked by mounting plugs in the holes.

5 Ulempen ved denne potte er primært, at der ikke er tilvejebragt en underskål men i stedet en drænrist, der skal monteres, inden der plantes i potten. Dette til forskel fra en underskål, der valgfrit kan monteres før eller efter, der er plantet i potten. Endvidere besidder 10 denne kendte beholder den ulempe, at åbning og lukning af hullerne i potten er meget vanskelig og faktisk kræver, at potten vendes med bunden i vejret. Dette er naturligvis meget uhensigtsmæssigt, såfremt en plante med jord er anbragt i potten. Derudover er adgangen mellem hullet i 15 potten og den del af det indre af potten, der befinder sig over drænristen, altså dér hvor plantens rødder befinder sig, begrænset af reservoiret og drænristen selv.5 The disadvantage of this pot is primarily that a saucer is not provided but instead a drain grate to be installed before planting in the pot. This is unlike a saucer that can optionally be fitted before or after planted in the pot. Furthermore, this known container possesses the disadvantage that opening and closing the holes in the pot is very difficult and in fact requires the pot to be turned with the bottom in the air. This is of course very inconvenient if a plant with soil is placed in the pot. In addition, access between the hole in the pot and the part of the interior of the pot that is above the drainage grid, ie where the plant roots are, is restricted by the reservoir and the drainage grid itself.

Det er formålet med den foreliggende opfindelse at 20 tilvejebringe en beholder til planter, der gør det muligt i et gartneri at vande planten fra ydersiden af beholderen ved at skabe adgang mellem ydersiden af beholderen og et indre af beholderen, og som samtidig gør det muligt at tilvejebringe en nem og effektiv efterfølgende lukning af 25 denne adgang, når beholderen skal pakkes, forsendes og sælges til en forbruger.It is the object of the present invention to provide a container for plants which allows a plant to water the plant from the outside of the container by providing access between the outside of the container and an interior of the container, and at the same time allowing provide an easy and effective subsequent closure of this access when the container is to be packed, shipped and sold to a consumer.

Dette opnås med en beholder, der er særpræget ved, at underskålen er forsynet med huller, der skaber forbindelse 30 mellem det indre volumen af underskålen og en yderside af underskålen.This is achieved with a container which is characterized in that the lower bowl is provided with holes which make connection 30 between the inner volume of the lower bowl and an outside of the lower bowl.

En beholder med en underskål, hvori der er tilvejebragt huller, medfører, at det er muligt at have underskålen 35 koblet sammen med potten i forbindelse med dyrkningen i et gartneri, hvor vanding sker fra ydersiden af beholderen til det indre af potten, hvor plantens rødder befinder sig.A container with a saucer in which holes are provided means that it is possible to have the saucer 35 coupled with the pot in connection with the cultivation in a garden where irrigation takes place from the outside of the container to the interior of the pot, where the roots of the plant is located.

DK 171623 B1 3 I en foretrukket udførelsesform er hullerne i pottens bund tilvejebragt i en stort set plan del af bunden og hullerne i underskålen er tilvejebragt i underskålens bund, 5 samtidig med at hullerne i potten henholdsvis underskålen kan bringes til at flugte, når potten og underskålen er sammenkoblet.In a preferred embodiment, the holes in the bottom of the pot are provided in a substantially planar portion of the bottom and the holes in the bottom bowl are provided in the bottom of the bottom bowl, 5 while the holes in the pot and the bottom bowl respectively can be caused to flush when the pot and the saucer is interconnected.

I en yderligere foretrukket udførelsesform er pottens bund 10 forsynet med mindst ét spor og underskålen er forsynet med mindst én lukkeknop, der er beregnet til at blive optaget i sporet. Sporet er forsynet med en første ende og en anden ende, og lukkeknoppen i underskålen kan forskydes i sporet mellem den første ende og den anden ende, når un-15 derskålen er sammenkoblet med potten.In a further preferred embodiment, the bottom of the pot 10 is provided with at least one groove and the lower bowl is provided with at least one closing knob intended to be received into the groove. The groove is provided with a first end and a second end, and the closure knob in the lower bowl can be displaced in the groove between the first end and the second end when the bottom bowl is connected to the pot.

I den udførelsesform, hvor hullerne i potten og underskålen kan bringes til at flugte, vil planten i potten have meget nemt ved at suge vand til sig. Adgangen til det indre af potten er i denne udførelsesform 20 etableret direkte fra en yderside af underskålen, hvorfra vandingen foretages.In the embodiment in which the holes in the pot and the saucer can be made to flush, the plant in the pot will have very easy by sucking water to it. In this embodiment, access to the interior of the pot is established directly from an outside of the saucer from which the irrigation is performed.

I den udførelsesform, hvor pottens bund og underskålen er forsynet med mindst ét spor henholdsvis mindst én 25 lukkeknop, er det muligt at forskyde underskålen i forhold til potten på en sådan måde, at hullerne i underskålen i en første position, hvor lukkeknoppen er i anlæg mod en første ende af sporet, flugter med hullerne i potten. I en anden position, hvor lukkeknoppen er i anlæg med en anden 30 ende af sporet, er adgangen til hullerne i potten forhindret, eventuelt ved, i denne anden position, at lade lukkeknoppen strække sig gennem hullerne i potten og dermed danne prop for hullerne.In the embodiment where the bottom of the pot and the saucer are provided with at least one groove and at least one closing knob, respectively, it is possible to displace the saucer in relation to the pot in such a way that the holes in the saucer in a first position where the closing knob is in contact towards the first end of the track, flush with the holes in the pot. In another position, where the closure knob is in contact with another end of the groove, access to the holes in the pot is prevented, possibly by, in this second position, allowing the closure knob to extend through the holes in the pot, thus forming a plug for the holes.

35 Sammenkoblingen af potten og underskålen foretages fortrinsvis ved at både potten og underskålen er forsynet med vulster, der er beregnet til at samvirke. En i forhold til en centerakse for beholderen udeftervendende vulst på 4 DK 171623 B1 ydersiden af en bundsektion ved en nederste del af potten og en i forhold til centeraksen indeftervendende vulst på siden af underskålen vil gøre det muligt at fortage en sammenkobling af potten og underskålen samtidig med, at 5 underskålen kan forskydes i forhold til potten.35 The coupling of the pot and the saucer is preferably done by providing both the pot and the saucer with beads designed to cooperate. An outer bead in relation to a center axis of the container of 4 DK 171623 B1 outside of a bottom section at a lower part of the pot and a bead facing inwards towards the center axis will enable the pot and the bottom bowl to be connected simultaneously with the fact that the 5 saucer can be displaced relative to the pot.

Underskålen består som nævnt af en bund og af sider. Hullerne i underskålen kan tilvejebringes både i bunden og i siderne. I forbindelse med vanding i gartnerier er det 10 mest hensigtsmæssigt, at hullerne er tilvejebragt i bunden, der danner støtteflade for beholderen. Herved er der mulighed for at skabe adgang til selv små mængder vand, der befinder sig ved underskålens yderside, f.eks. på et vandingsbord.As mentioned, the saucer consists of a bottom and sides. The holes in the saucer can be provided both at the bottom and the sides. In the case of irrigation in horticulture it is most convenient that the holes are provided at the bottom which forms the support surface for the container. This allows access to even small quantities of water located at the outside of the saucer, e.g. on an irrigation table.

Pottens bundsektion og underskålen kan have en sådan udformning, at der dannes et reservoir til vand eller gødningsmateriale mellem potten og underskålen. Dette reservoir kan tilvejebringes ved, at voluminet af pottens 20 bundsektion er mindre end voluminet af det indre af underskålen. Differencen mellem de to voluminer udgør reservoiret.The bottom section of the pot and the saucer may be of such a design that a reservoir for water or fertilizer material is formed between the pot and the saucer. This reservoir can be provided by the volume of the bottom section of the pot 20 being less than the volume of the interior of the saucer. The difference between the two volumes constitutes the reservoir.

Reservoiret kan være afgrænset indadtil mod centeraksen 25 ved, at der i underskålens bund er dannet en skinne, der forløber i en cirkel omkring centeraksen, og som strækker sig opefter fra indersiden af underskålen mod underskålens åbning. Skinnen er beregnet til at gå i indgreb med en rille, der er dannet i pottens bund, og som ligeledes 30 forløber i en cirkel omkring centeraksen, og som strækker sig opefter mod pottens åbning. Reservoiret er på denne måde afgrænset af underskålens sider, underskålens bund samt skinnen, der er dannet i underskålens bund. Skinnen og rillen vil ikke blive beskrevet nærmere.The reservoir may be bounded inwardly toward the center axis 25 by forming a rail extending in the bottom of the saucer extending in a circle about the center axis extending upwardly from the inside of the saucer toward the opening of the saucer. The rail is intended to engage a groove formed at the bottom of the pot, which also extends in a circle about the center axis, extending upwardly toward the opening of the pot. The reservoir is thus bounded by the sides of the saucer, the bottom of the saucer as well as the rail formed in the bottom of the saucer. The rail and groove will not be described in more detail.

For at skabe mulighed for, at planten kan suge vand eller gødningsstoffer til sig fra reservoiret, kan pottens bundsektion være forsynet med huller, der skaber 5 DK 171623 B1 forbindelse mellen reservoiret og det indre volumen af potten.In order to allow the plant to absorb water or fertilizers from the reservoir, the bottom section of the pot may be provided with holes which connect the reservoir and the internal volume of the pot.

Potte og underskål vil fortrinsvis være fremstillet af 5 plast, der kan formgives ved enten sprøjtestøbning eller fortrinsvis ved varmformgivning. Potte og underskål vil endvidere fortrinsvis have et cirkulært tværsnit. Dette vil lette den forskydning, der skal kunne foretages mellem potten og underskålen, idet forskydning i tilfælde af en 10 beholder med cirkulært tværsnit blot kan være en indbyrdes rotation af underskålen i forhold til potten omkring centeraksen. Dette udelukker dog ikke at potten på nær bundsektionen kan have et firkantet tværsnit, eller at underskålen kan have en firkantet yderside og en cirkulær 15 inderside. Andre former end cirkulær og firkantet vil ligeledes kunne anvendes.Pots and saucers will preferably be made of plastic which can be molded by either injection molding or preferably by hot molding. Furthermore, the pot and saucer will preferably have a circular cross section. This will facilitate the displacement to be made between the pot and the saucer, since in the case of a container of circular cross-section, displacement can merely be a mutual rotation of the saucer relative to the pot around the center axis. However, this does not preclude that the pot except for the bottom section may have a square cross-section or that the saucer may have a square outside and a circular inside. Forms other than circular and square may also be used.

I en foretrukket udførelsesform sammenkobles potte og underskål, som nævnt, ved hjælp af vulster, der er 20 tilvejebragt på henholdsvis ydersiden af pottens bundsektion og på indersiden af underskålens sider. Vulsten på indersiden af underskålen befinder sig over vulsten på ydersiden af pottens bundsektion set i forhold til en opefter mod pottens åbning vendende retning. Denne 25 sammenkoblingmetode er enkel og tilstrækkelig til at fastholde underskålen til potten, samtidig med at tillade underskålen at rotere i forhold til potten.In a preferred embodiment, as mentioned, pots and saucers are interconnected by means of beads provided respectively on the outside of the bottom section of the pot and on the inside of the sides of the saucer. The bead on the inside of the saucer is above the bead on the outside of the bottom section of the pot as compared to an upwardly facing direction of the pot opening. This coupling method is simple and sufficient to hold the saucer to the pot while allowing the saucer to rotate relative to the pot.

Når beholderen med plante er vokset færdig på gartneriet 30 og skal fragtes fra gartneriet, er det ikke hensigtsmæssigt, at der er adgang mellem det ydre af beholderen og det indre af potten. Der vil i så tilfælde være risiko for, at vand eller jord ledes ud af potten. Derfor, når beholderens tages af vandingsbordet, forskydes 35 underskålen således, at adgangen til hullerne i potten blokeres. Såfremt potten og underskålen er cirkulære kan underskålens forskydning som nævnt være en rotation, der 6 DK 171623 B1 bringer bunden eller siderne af underskålen hen at dække for hullerne i potten.When the container of plant has grown finished at the horticulture 30 and is to be shipped from the horticulture, it is not appropriate that access be made between the exterior of the container and the interior of the pot. In that case, there will be a risk of water or soil being discharged from the pot. Therefore, when the container is taken off the irrigation table, the bottom bowl is displaced so that access to the holes in the pot is blocked. If the pot and saucer are circular, the displacement of the saucer may, as mentioned, be a rotation which causes the bottom or sides of the saucer to cover the holes in the pot.

I forbindelse med detailsalg af planter i beholderen, kan 5 forhandleren vælge enten at forskyde underskålen tilbage til den første position, hvor der er adgang fra ydersiden af beholderen til det indre af potten for at have mulighed for at undervande planten, indtil planten med beholder sælges. Forhandleren kan også vælge at lade underskålen 10 forblive i den anden position, hvor der ikke er adgang fra ydersiden af beholderen til det indre af potten for dermed at have mulighed for at vande planten gennem den øvre åbning i potten uden at vand eller jord ledes ud gennem hullerne i pottens bund. Tilsvarende valgmulighed fo-15 religger for den person, der i sidste række køber planten med beholder.In the case of retail sale of plants in the container, the dealer may choose to either move the lower bowl back to the first position, where access is from the outside of the container to the interior of the pot to allow the plant to underwater until the plant with container is sold. . The dealer may also choose to leave the saucer 10 in the second position where there is no access from the outside of the container to the interior of the pot, thereby allowing the plant to water the plant through the upper opening of the pot without draining water or soil. through the holes in the bottom of the pot. Corresponding option fo-15 religion for the person who ultimately buys the plant with container.

Opfindelsen vil herefter blive beskrevet nærmere under henvisning til den medfølgende tegning, hvor 20 fig. 1 viser et snit gennem en første udførelsesform for en potte og en underskål til en beholder ifølge opfindelsen 25 fig. 2 viser et snit gennem den første udførelsesform for underskålen til en beholder ifølge opfindelsen fig. 3 viser et første snit gennem en anden udførelsesform for en potte og en underskål til en 30 beholder ifølge opfindelsen fig. 4 viser et andet snit gennem den anden udførelsesform for potte og underskål til en beholder ifølge opfindelsen.The invention will now be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawing, in which: FIG. 1 shows a section through a first embodiment of a pot and a saucer for a container according to the invention. FIG. 2 shows a section through the first embodiment of the saucer for a container according to the invention; 3 shows a first section through a second embodiment of a pot and a saucer for a container according to the invention; FIG. 4 shows another section through the second embodiment of pot and saucer for a container according to the invention.

Lukkeknopperne 20 i bunden 18 af underskålen 3 strækker sig op i sporene 32. Ved en rotation af underskålen 3 i forhold til potten 2 omkring centeraksen 13 kan lukkeknopperne 20 forskydes i sporene 32. I en første - og 35 illustreret - situation er lukkeknoppeme 20 i anlæg mod den første ende 34 af sporene 32. I denne situation flugter hullerne 8 i bunden 6 af potten 2 med hullerne 27 i bunden 18 af underskålen 3, og der er hermed etableret 10 DK 171623 B1 adgang mellem ydersiden 26 af underskålen og det indre 7 af potten. I en anden situation befinder lukkeknopperne 20 sig i den anden ende 35 af sporene 32. Lukkeknopperne 20 strækker sig i denne situation gennem hullerne 8 i bunden 5 6 af potten 2 og blokerer hermed adgangen mellem ydersiden 26 af underskålen og det indre 7 af potten.The closure knobs 20 at the bottom 18 of the saucer 3 extend into the grooves 32. By rotating the saucer 3 relative to the pot 2 around the center axis 13, the closure knobs 20 can be displaced in the grooves 32. In a first - and 35 illustrated - situation, the closure knobs 20 in abutting the first end 34 of the grooves 32. In this situation, the holes 8 at the bottom 6 of the pot 2 align with the holes 27 at the bottom 18 of the bottom bowl 3, and access is thereby established between the outer surface 26 of the bottom bowl and the inner 7 of the pot. In another situation, the closure knobs 20 are located at the other end 35 of the grooves 32. The closure knobs 20 in this situation extend through the holes 8 in the bottom 5 6 of the pot 2, thereby blocking access between the outer surface 26 of the saucer and the inner 7 of the pot.

Beholderen bestående af potte og underskål er fortrinsvis fremstillet af plast, der er formgivet ved 10 varmformgivning. Således som illustreret i de viste udførelsesformer er potte og underskål fortrinsvis fremstillet med et cirkulært tværsnit. Endvidere foretages sammenkoblingen mellem potten og under skålen også fortrinsvis således som illustreret ved hjælp af en 15 udefter- henholdsvis indeftervendende vulst på ydersiden af potten henholdsvis indersiden af underskålen.The container of pot and saucer is preferably made of plastic which is formed by hot forming. Thus, as illustrated in the illustrated embodiments, pots and saucers are preferably made with a circular cross section. Further, the coupling between the pot and under the bowl is also preferably done as illustrated by means of an outer and inner bead, respectively, on the outside of the pot and the inside of the saucer respectively.

De viste udførelsesformer skal imidlertid ikke ses som en begrænsning af materialevalg eller af udformning af 20 beholderen ifølge opfindelsen. Andre materialer såsom ler, metal eller andre materialer vil kunne anvendes til beholderen ifølge opfindelsen. Andre tværsnit for potte og underskål end det cirkulære vil også kunne anvendes. Hullerne i potten henholdsvis underskålen kan 25 tilvejebringes i siderne af disse i stedet for i bunden.However, the illustrated embodiments are not to be construed as limiting the choice of material or the design of the container according to the invention. Other materials such as clay, metal or other materials may be used for the container of the invention. Cross sections for pots and saucers other than the circular can also be used. The holes in the pot and the saucer, respectively, can be provided in the sides thereof rather than in the bottom.

Det er ikke nødvendigt at underskålens bund er forsynet med lukkeknopper, og det er ikke et krav, at potte og underskål skal kunne roteres i forhold til hinanden. En forskydning af anden type end rotation vil også kunne 30 anvendes. Endelig skal sammenkoblingen mellem potte og underskål ved hjælp af to indbyrdes samvirkende vulste ikke betragtes som den eneste måde at sammenkoble delene på.It is not necessary that the bottom of the saucer is provided with closure knobs and it is not a requirement that pots and saucers must be able to rotate in relation to each other. An offset other than rotation could also be used. Finally, the use of two interacting beads between the pot and the saucer should not be considered as the only way to connect the parts.
