Definitions
- the invention relates to a device with a sheet-like holder and container having openings according to the preamble of claims 1 and 2 respectively.
- a generic device is known from FR-A-2.125.565 or the corresponding DE-A-2.207.540.
- This device consists of a square, rectangular, polygonal or circular cross-section, open-topped container, which has slightly spaced inside from its upper end support areas on which a sheet-like holder having openings can be arranged.
- a further container such as a flower pot or the like, an ash dryer, a newspaper holder or the like, is arranged on each of these support areas or in the openings of the holder and has smaller dimensions, in particular a lower height, than the container surrounding it .
- the outer container is used here for decoration and as a storage container for water
- the inner container which may be carried by the halter - insofar as it concerns a flower pot - is a conventional clay pot with a lower central opening that allows water to pass through and is essentially no longer visible in the planter is hidden.
- the support regions arranged in the container can in particular be formed by a coherent projection which extends over the circumference of the container.
- the outer contour of the holder corresponds approximately to that of the container carrying it.
- the openings of the holder can have a circular, rectangular or square cross-section, wherein projections or projections projecting into these openings can be arranged.
- the containers to be inserted into the openings such as flower pots or the like, rest with their edge projecting outward beyond their container wall on the edge of the opening arranged in the holder or on the support regions of the outer container.
- a decoration device is obtained through which the largest part of the inner container, such as a flower pot or the like, is no longer visible in the inner part of the outer container covered by the holder. Since the support regions of the outer container are spaced from its upper end, the upper edge of the inner container is no longer visible, at least from the side.
- a decorative device is known from DE-A-2,425,752, which is used in particular for flowers, plants, onions, tubers or the like.
- This known device has a plate which forms a holder and which contains at least one opening transversely to its plane of extension.
- Containers such. B. vases, which have at their bottom a zyjinder-shaped base that penetrates the opening of the holder and protrudes downward beyond this. This base penetrating the holder prevents the container standing on the plate-shaped holder from being able to be moved thereon.
- Containers of different sizes have all bases of identical diameter, the diameter of the base corresponding to the diameter of the opening.
- the relevant containers can only be used together with the known holder, since the diameter of the base is generally much smaller than the outer diameter of the container and this falls very easily when used without a suitable holder.
- the holder containing the bore can only be used appropriately with containers which have a base adapted to the opening.
- the bottom of the container must be flat according to the flat plate so that the container can rest on the plate.
- a planter and a flower pot for this are known from FR-A-788.028. Both are matched to one another and both are conical in a known manner.
- the planter has, spaced from its upper end on its inner wall, four flat projections which are uniformly distributed over the circumference, while on the inner pot on the outer wall there are four corresponding projections which rest on the former.
- the invention has for its object to provide a generic decoration device that can be used more versatile, which is particularly variable in size and design of the container, in which the container carried by the holder is at least partially visible as part of the decoration device and in which the container can also be inserted from below into the opening of the holder.
- each container has at least one cylindrical outer wall
- the front standing part is arranged at an axial height spaced from the ends of each container and is formed by four or more projections projecting outward beyond the outer wall of the container and being spaced apart and evenly distributed over the circumference.
- the opening of the holder has a square cross section, which then allows four protrusions to pass through.
- the cross section of the opening of the holder corresponds in shape and size to the cross section of the container at the level of the projections and has receptacles which allow a passage of the then several projections.
- the container hanging in the holder stands as part of a decorative device over the holder not only with its overhangs, but also with part of its now cylindrical outer wall.
- this opening has a cross section which corresponds in shape and size to the cross section of the container at the level of the projections.
- the container is then inserted into the opening in such a way that the projections come to lie between the recesses in the opening corresponding to the projections.
- the opening of the holder can also be larger than the cross-section of the container at the level of the projections, namely square, the container then having four mutually spaced projections at an axial height distributed over the circumference, which on the edges of the opening come to lie.
- the container can also be inserted from below into the opening of the holder, the container having to be rotated about its vertical axis in such a way that the projections at Insert either fit into the recesses of the circular opening or are oriented towards the corners of the square opening.
- the container is rotated about its vertical axis until the projections come to lie above the holder, from which the container is then held.
- a rotation of 45 ° is necessary.
- the edge of the opening can have depressions which accommodate the projections and the height of which the container must additionally be lowered when penetrating into the opening.
- the plate-shaped holder While in the device described above, known from DE-A-2,425,752, the plate-shaped holder is placed on the soft ground and the part of the base protruding beyond the opening is pressed into the ground, the present device is to be used in particular in rooms . This means that there must be space below the holder for the sagging part of the container.
- the inner container resting on the holder is smaller, in particular lower, than the surrounding decorative holder carrying the holder, so that there is always sufficient space underneath the holder.
- the holder forms a wall, preferably the lid of a sales packaging, in which the containers are arranged during transport.
- the containers are then hung in the openings for demonstration in the sales shop and, if the customer takes this device home, can be briefly reinserted into the packaging, from which they can then be removed again at the installation site. to put it back in the holder.
- the holder forms the lid of a watertight tub.
- a plurality of container-receiving openings can be provided two-dimensionally, both next to and one behind the other.
- the holder can also have feet that are longer than the greatest height of the sagging part of the container, but the holder can also be held self-hanging on its edge by cords.
- a plurality of container-holding brackets can be provided one above the other, spaced from one another. B. are connected to one another at their end faces via webs or via side walls.
- Such a device consisting of several brackets can also have a closed base on which the entire bracket stands.
- a plurality of brackets can also be connected to one another via the cords carrying the device.
- the holder has a frame.
- This frame can now carry a grid-like grate with webs, between which the openings receiving the containers are formed.
- These openings can be formed by crossing webs, as a result of which they are square, but they can also be formed by webs arranged parallel to one another, so that the openings have a rectangular shape not belonging to the invention.
- the webs can be compared to two parallel faces of the grate at an angle of less than 90 °, z. B. at an angle of 45 °, which results in a loosened arrangement.
- the holder is designed as a grate, it is also advantageous to design the webs in such a way that their spacing from one another can be changed, in particular at an irregular spacing from one another.
- the holder has elements with symmetrically stepped depressions which rest with their edge strips either on the frame of the holder or on the webs of the grate.
- the recess of such an element has weak points at its steps, at which individual steps, forming an opening into which the containers are hung, can be separated.
- plates with openings can also rest on the frame or the grate of the holder.
- the holder will come to rest horizontally, it can also be arranged at an angle to the horizontal, so that containers hanging further back in the viewing direction are arranged higher.
- a decoration device essentially consists of a flat holder 1, in which openings 2 are provided, in which containers 3 hang.
- These openings 2 are circular in the illustrated exemplary embodiments (FIG. 1 or square (FIG. 2).
- the containers 3 which are suspended or can be suspended in these openings 2 are of a rotationally symmetrical design, in particular circular-cylindrical.
- the containers 3 have four protruding projections 5 at least one axial height outwards over the container wall; according to the embodiments according to FIGS. 1 and 2, four projections 5 spaced apart and evenly distributed over the circumference of the container 3 are provided, each of which there one Cover 45 ° bend.
- the opening 2 according to FIG. 1 has a cross section which corresponds to the shape and size of the outer cross-sectional line of the container 3 at the level of the projections 5, i.e. H. the essentially circular opening 2 has recesses 6 which allow the projection 5 to pass through.
- the container 3 can thus be inserted into the opening from above, the projections 5 coming to lie on the edge of the opening 2 between the recesses 6, as shown in FIG. 2, but the container 3 can also be positioned from below are pushed through the opening 2 so that the projections 5 are aligned with the recesses 6 of the opening 2.
- the container 3 is rotated by 45 ° about its vertical axis until the projections 5 can again rest on the edge of the openings 2 between the recesses 6.
- the container is introduced in the same manner as described above, with the container 3 being introduced into the holder 1 from below to ensure that the cantilevers when Push through the opening 2 towards the corners of the same and then come to rest on the side edges 7 of the opening 2.
- protrusions 8 projecting inwards into the container 3 are provided, on which an element 8 ′ carrying a plant can be supported (see middle container 3 the upper bracket 1 in Figure 4).
- the holder 1 can now be designed differently regardless of its opening 2.
- the holder consists of a circumferential, from strips, for. B. Wooden strips existing frame 9, the remaining openings between the strips, which can form the container 3 receiving openings 2, but on which - as shown in Figure 5 - webs 10 are provided, thereby smaller, in particular differently sized and differently shaped containers 3rd record opening 2, are adjustable. On these webs 10 or strips 9, the openings thus formed are also z. T. by additional. differently designed brackets 1 closed.
- FIGS. 3 and 5 show perforated plates 11, the holes of which form the openings 2 receiving the containers 3. Although these holes are circular in shape, they can also have a square cross section, as was explained previously with reference to FIG. 2.
- a holder 1 having a symmetrically graduated depression 12 can be placed on the strips or the webs 10 forming the frame 9.
- the stages 12 ' can be separated from one another, so that openings 1 of different sizes can be formed with this holder 1, depending on how many stages 12' are separated.
- a holder 1 can have a plurality of depressions 12 which can be formed into openings 2, as is shown in FIG. 5.
- the projections 5 of the container 3 lie on the horizontal surfaces of the steps, while the vertical surfaces of the steps affect the container wall.
- the frame 9 consisting of strips, forming the holder 1 or carrying further holders 1 can now rest on the upper edges of an open, in particular watertight box 13, as shown in FIG. 3, this box as an aquarium, terrarium or the like is usable, and then consists of a transparent material or, especially when using the container for photosensitive roots having plants made of an opaque material.
- the holder can also form the lid of a shipping box according to an embodiment, not shown, in the lid of the circumferential line of the container 3 corresponding openings 2, z. B. in a circular cylindrical container 3, a circular opening 2 is formed.
- An inventive insertion of the container 3 from below into the holder 1 for hanging the container is not possible here.
- Such an embodiment offers itself for the beginning of the construction of a larger device, such as. B. the in Figure 3.
- the side wall opposite the bracket 1 forming the side wall can be made transparent so that one can see the packaged container 3, on the other hand the lower part of the container 3 receiving the roots of a plant is arranged protected from light in the set-up device.
- the device is shelf-shaped, i. H. two brackets 1 or rows of brackets 1 are arranged one above the other.
- the upper holder 1 in the drawing here consists of a long, narrow plate in which the openings 3 receiving the containers are arranged along the center line. As can be seen, these openings are of different sizes in order to accommodate containers 3 of different sizes. Furthermore, it can also be seen from this holder 1 that containers 3 of identical shape and size can hang at different heights in the holder 1 when projections 5 are provided in two vertical heights.
- a frame 9 is provided here, on which holders 1 with the symmetrically graduated recesses 12 described above are placed.
- openings of different sizes are formed by cutting off a different number of steps. While the left-hand container 3 'has the largest diameter and rests on the first stage from above, the right-hand container 3 ", which has a somewhat smaller diameter, rests on the second remaining stage and the middle, narrowest container 3"' rests on the fourth stage , and the deepest overall.
- the two brackets 1 or groups of brackets arranged one above the other are connected here by boards 14 arranged on their end faces, which here are extended under the frame 9 and at the end of which hold a plate 16 forming the bottom of the device.
- the device according to FIG. 4 can now either stand with its base 16 on a table or, as shown in FIG. 4, can be kept hanging from cords 18 via screw eyes 17. In the latter case, it is also possible to provide the bottom 16 with openings 2, so that containers 3 can also protrude downward from the entire device.
- a plurality of brackets 1 arranged one above the other or groups of brackets 1 carried by frame 9 can, according to a not shown embodiment similar to that shown in FIG. 4, also be suspended at a distance from one another in that instead of the boards 14 forming the side walls, the cords 18 are each below the bracket 1 or the frame 9 knotted to reach the lowest bracket or to the lowest frame.
- a front and a rear wall can also be present, so that the space below the frame 9 is completely darkened.
- a front wall can be opened or slid. This allows the roots of the plants to be protected from light rays, on the other hand, the water level in the containers can be checked in a simple manner, which is very difficult when the containers themselves are made of an opaque material.
