Description

Transportvase für Schnittblumen Transport vase for cut flowers
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vase, welche besonders geeignet ist, um Schnittblumen insbesondere von ganzen Blumensträussen lagern, transportieren und frischhalten zu können, gemäss dem Oberbegriff des unabhängigen Patentanspruches.The invention relates to a vase which is particularly suitable for storing, transporting and keeping fresh cut flowers, in particular of entire bouquets, according to the preamble of the independent claim.
Normalerweise werden vom Floristen in Blumengeschäften Schnittblumen dem Kunden mitgegeben, entweder ohne jeden Feuchtigkeitsspender in Papier eingewickelt, oder oft auch werden die Stiele mit einem wassergetränkten Wattebausch oder kleinem Schwamm umgeben, verpackt. Eine andere bekannte Art des frischhaltenden Transportes besteht in kleinen Behält¬ nissen, welche am Stiel nicht wasserdicht verschlossen werden können und daher gerne auslaufen. Gleichzeitig besteht die Ge¬ fahr, dass der Rand dieser Behälter die Blumenstiele verletzt.Cut flowers are usually given to the customer by the florist in flower shops, either wrapped in paper without any moisturizer, or the stems are often wrapped with a water-soaked cotton ball or small sponge. Another known type of fresh-keeping transport consists of small containers which cannot be closed watertight on the stem and therefore like to leak out. At the same time, there is a risk that the edge of these containers will damage the flower stems.
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine Transportvase für Schnitt¬ blumen und dergleichen zu schaffen, welche Nährflüssigkeit speichert und nach Bedarf an Blumen abgibt, ohne dass die Nährflüssigkeit ausläuft, unabhängig von der Lage. Die Lage¬ unabhängigkeit ist wichtig, da Blumenstrausse oft mit den Blüten nach unten und den Stielen nach oben getragen werden.The object of the invention is to provide a transport vase for cut flowers and the like, which stores nutrient liquid and delivers it to flowers as required, without the nutrient liquid running out, regardless of the position. The location independence is important, as bouquets often with the Flowers are carried down and the stems up.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch die in den Patentansprüchen angegebene Erfindung gelöst.This object is achieved by the invention specified in the patent claims.
Ein zusätzlicher Vorteil der Erfindung ist, dass die vorge¬ schlagene Transportvase in ungebrauchtem Zustand ein Minimum an Volumen und Gewicht beansprucht. Diese Transportvasen kön¬ nen ungebraucht sogar in einer Hosentasche mitgeführt und an Ort und Stelle bei Bedarf mit Wasser gefüllt, respektive ge¬ tränkt werden, um die Funktion zu erfüllen. Die Herstellung dieser Art Transportvase ist in allen Grossen und Farben mög¬ lich und ausserordentlich preisgünstig.An additional advantage of the invention is that the proposed transport vase requires a minimum of volume and weight when not in use. These transport vases can even be carried unused in a pocket and, if necessary, filled with water on the spot or soaked in order to fulfill the function. The manufacture of this type of transport vase is possible in all sizes and colors and is extremely inexpensive.
Ein zusätzlicher Vorteil der Erfindung ist, dass die Trans¬ portvase auf ihrer Aussenseite nicht feucht oder nass wird und sich daher auch nicht auflöst. Gleichzeitig bietet sie einen ausgezeichneten Schutz für die Blumenstiele gegen Druck und Wärme, und umgekehrt werden Haut und Hände nicht nass, und ein direkter Kontakt mit Pflanzenstielen wird vermieden. Dies kann zum Beispiel allergische Hautreaktionen, hervorgerufen durch bestimmte Pflanzen, verhindern.An additional advantage of the invention is that the outside of the transport vase does not become damp or wet and therefore does not dissolve. At the same time, it offers excellent protection for the flower stems against pressure and heat, and conversely, the skin and hands do not get wet, and direct contact with plant stems is avoided. For example, this can prevent allergic skin reactions caused by certain plants.
Die Erfindung wird nachstehend im Zusammenhang mit den Zeich¬ nungen beschrieben. Figur 1 zeigt eine Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemässen Transportvase in perspektivischer Ansicht;The invention is described below in connection with the drawings. FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of the transport vase according to the invention in a perspective view;
Figur 2 zeigt eine andere Ausführungsform der Transportvase;Figure 2 shows another embodiment of the transport vase;
Figur 3 zeigt eine Transportvase im Querschnitt.Figure 3 shows a transport vase in cross section.
Figur 1 zeigt eine Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemässen Transportvase in perspektivischer Ansicht. Ein flexibles Be¬ hältnis besteht aus einer wasserundurchlässigen Hülle 1, wel¬ che auf ihrer Innenseite 2 mit einer Schicht aus saugfähigem Material 3, vorzugsweise aus Zellstoff, wattenähnlich, be¬ schichtet ist. Dieses saugfähige Material 3 dient als Nähr- flüssigkeitsspeicher. Es wird erst vor dem eigentlichen Ein¬ satz mit der Nährflüssigkeit getränkt.Figure 1 shows an embodiment of the transport vase according to the invention in a perspective view. A flexible container consists of a waterproof cover 1, which is coated on the inside 2 with a layer of absorbent material 3, preferably made of cellulose, like cotton wool. This absorbent material 3 serves as a nutrient storage. It is only soaked with the nutrient liquid before the actual use.
Auf einem Teil des Umfanges 4 ist die wasserundurchlässige Hülle 1 nicht mit saugfähigem Material 3 beschichtet, sondern fächerförmig 5, 5', 5' ' vorgefaltet. Dies erleichtert das Ein¬ stellen von Blumen, da so eine grössere Oeffnung vorhanden ist. Wenn Nährflüssigkeit eingegeben und Blumen eingestellt sind, wird die Hülle 1 beim nun beschichteten Teil 4 in die Falten gelegt, um damit die Blumen um die Stiele herum besser zu fassen. Anschliessend wird ein wiederverschliessbares Klebeband 6, welches an einer Stelle auf der Aussenseite der Hülle 1 fixiert ist, um die gefaltete Seite gelegt und hält die ganze Transportvase derart zusammen, dass die Blumenstiele nicht mehr herausrutschen.On a part of the circumference 4, the waterproof cover 1 is not coated with absorbent material 3, but is pre-folded in a fan shape 5, 5 ', 5''. This facilitates the setting of flowers, since there is a larger opening. When nutrient fluid has been added and flowers have been set, the casing 1 is folded into the folds in the part 4 which is now coated, so that the flowers around the stems can be better grasped. A resealable adhesive tape 6, which is fixed at one point on the outside of the casing 1, is then placed and held around the folded side the whole transport vase together in such a way that the flower stems no longer slide out.
Die Nährflüssigkeit befindet sich nur im saugfähigen Material 3, von wo sie an die Blumenstiele, nach Bedarf, abgegeben wird. Das saugfähiges Material 3 kann ein Vielfaches seines Eigengewichtes an Nährflüssigkeit aufnehmen und speichern. Durch die Beschaffenheit des saugfähigen Materiales 3, wie es zum Beispiel von Windeln bekannt ist, wird die Nährflüssigkeit auslaufsicher zurückgehalten. An einer beliebigen Stelle im unteren Bereich der Transportvase im Bereich des saugfähigen Materiales 3 ist ein bekannter Nässeindikator 7 angeordnet, und ermöglicht die Flüssigkeitsspeicherung optisch von aussen zu kontrollieren.The nutrient liquid is only in the absorbent material 3, from where it is released to the flower stems as required. The absorbent material 3 can absorb and store a multiple of its own weight in nutrient liquid. Due to the nature of the absorbent material 3, as is known, for example, from diapers, the nutrient liquid is retained leak-proof. At any point in the lower area of the transport vase in the area of the absorbent material 3, a known wetness indicator 7 is arranged and enables the liquid storage to be checked optically from the outside.
In einer anderen Ausführungform besteht die Transportvase aus zwei, im Prinzip trapezartigen, innen vliessbeschichteten Teilen der wasserundurchlässigen Hülle, welche seitlich und unten wie ein Kaffeefilter zugeschweisst oder verklebt sind.In another embodiment, the transport vase consists of two, in principle trapezoidal, inside fleece-coated parts of the waterproof cover, which are welded or glued on the sides and below like a coffee filter.
Eine andere Ausführungsform der Transportvase ist in Figur 2 dargestellt. Die Transportvase weist die Form einer einseitig offenen Hülle oder Tasche mit einer im unbenutzten Zustand etwa rechteckigen Form auf. Einseitig ist im oberen Bereich ein wiederlösbares Klebeband 6 angebracht, mit welchem die Vase bei Gebrauch um die Blumenstiele zusammengezogen und gesichert werden kann. Front- und gegebenenfalls rückseitig sind Taschen 8 angebracht. Die Taschen 8 sind aus der gleichen Folie, wie die Hülle selbst, können aber auch aus anderem knitterbaren dünnen Material sein. Sie dienen einerseits zum Einstecken von kleinen Beuteln bekannter Frischhaltemittel für Schnittblumen, andererseits zum Einstecken von Gruss- oder Ge¬ schäftskarten, und sind in ihren Massen darauf abgestimmt. Die Transportvase kann farbig gestaltet sein, und können zum Bei¬ spiel die Taschen 8 mit Reklamen bedruckt werden.Another embodiment of the transport vase is shown in Figure 2. The transport vase is in the form of a cover or bag open on one side with an approximately rectangular shape when not in use. On one side in the upper area there is a releasable adhesive tape 6, with which the vase is pulled together around the flower stems when in use can be secured. Pockets 8 are attached on the front and possibly on the back. The pockets 8 are made of the same film as the sheath itself, but can also be made of other thin, wrinkled material. They serve on the one hand for inserting small bags of known freshness-keeping agents for cut flowers, on the other hand for inserting greeting or business cards, and their dimensions are matched to them. The transport vase can be designed in color and, for example, the pockets 8 can be printed with advertisements.
In Figur 3 ist eine erfindungsgemässe Transportvase in offenem Zustand im Querschnitt dargestellt. Die wasserundurchlässige Hülle 1 bildet ein nach oben offenes U., wobei das Hüllenmate¬ rial als Umschlag 13 um die oberen Enden der Transportvase herumgezogen und auf der Innenseite um ein gewisses Mass nach unten gezogen ist. Sie umfasst damit das saugfähige Material 3 in diesem Bereich teilweise und bildet eine Art umgekehrte, unten offene Rinne. Diese Rinne verhindert beim umgekehrt Halten eines Blumenstrausses in der Transportvase ein allfälliges Auslaufen des Wassers.In Figure 3, a transport vase according to the invention is shown in cross-section in the open state. The water-impermeable envelope 1 forms a U. which is open at the top, the envelope material being pulled around the upper ends of the transport vase as an envelope 13 and being pulled down to a certain extent on the inside. It thus partially encompasses the absorbent material 3 in this area and forms a type of inverted channel which is open at the bottom. When holding a bouquet of flowers in the transport vase, this channel prevents the water from escaping.
In die taschenförmige wasserundurchlässige Hülle 1 ist eine Schicht aus saugfähigem Material 3 eingelegt. Als saugfähiges Material eignet sich insbesondere Zellstoff, zum Beispiel in watteähnlicher Form, Schaumstoff, schwammartiges Material und dergleichen. Saugfähiges Material 3, das durch seine inneren Eigenschaften in sich selbst eine Kapillarwirkung aufweist, fördert die Flüssigkeitsverteilung zusätzlich.A layer of absorbent material 3 is inserted into the pocket-shaped, waterproof cover 1. Cellulose, for example in the form of cotton wool, foam, sponge-like material and the like, is particularly suitable as the absorbent material. Absorbent material 3, thanks to its inner Has properties in itself a capillary effect, the liquid distribution additionally promotes.
Gegen innen ist die Schicht aus saugfähigem Material durch eine poröse oder perforierte Folie 11 abgedeckt. Diese poröse Folie 11 kann aus Kunststoff mit kleinen Löchern bestehen. Es eignet sich aber auch ein Vliessstoff in der Art eines Geo- textils oder ein feines Gewebe. Die poröse Folie 11 ist am oberen Rand mit dem Rand der wasserundurchlässigen Hülle innenseitig vom Umschlag 13 durch Klebung oder Schweissung 12 fest verbunden.On the inside, the layer of absorbent material is covered by a porous or perforated film 11. This porous film 11 can be made of plastic with small holes. However, a nonwoven in the manner of a geotextile or a fine fabric is also suitable. The porous film 11 is firmly connected at the upper edge to the edge of the waterproof cover on the inside of the envelope 13 by gluing or welding 12.
In die Transportvase eingefülltes Wasser verteilt sich im saugfähigen Material 3 und kann sich in begrenztem Mass inner¬ halb diesem Material verlagern. Beim Umgekehrthalten eines Blumenstrausses in der Transportvase, hat das Wasser die Ten¬ denz, sich nach unten zu verlagern. Es wird aber durch die wasserdichte Hülle im Umschlag zurückgehalten und am Aus- fHessen gehindert. Bei Verwendung eines entsprechenden saug¬ fähigen Materiales 3, wie zum Beispiel einem Schaumstoff, kann auf die poröse Folie 11 verzichtet werden.Water filled into the transport vase is distributed in the absorbent material 3 and can shift within this material to a limited extent. When a bouquet of flowers is held upside down in the transport vase, the water has the tendency to shift downward. However, it is held back by the waterproof cover in the envelope and prevented from being eaten out. When using an appropriate absorbent material 3, such as a foam, the porous film 11 can be omitted.
Die Hülle 1 ist vorzugsweise aus einem rutsch- und reissfesten und biologisch abbaubaren Material hergestellt. Ebenso ist das saugfähige Material 3 und die poröse Folie möglichst aus bio¬ logisch abbaubarem Material herzustellen, damit die Transport¬ vase wiederverwendbar und/oder recyclebar ist. The sleeve 1 is preferably made of a non-slip and tear-resistant and biodegradable material. Likewise, the absorbent material 3 and the porous film should, if possible, be made from biodegradable material so that the transport vase can be reused and / or recycled.
