Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a universal pot-holder for open-air cultivation and its auxiliary elements.
  • Pots situated outside the nursery in the open air must be firmly arranged, at the right distance, and the excess rainwater which tends to collect, must be drained.
  • perforated trays for example thermoformed, are used, and the pots are inserted in the holes. This again is not an optimum solution as the cultivated area can undergo deterioration due to stagnant water or to geometrical and/or dimensional restrictions caused by the trays themselves.
  • the setting up of each are, moreover, is normally determined by the species of plant cultivated in the particular type of pot with a certain equidistance between the pots; at each turnover, however, the new pots are re-divided in the specific lot assigned with an analogous procedure, as in the case of a new cultivation scheme, to reselect the reciprocal distances between each pot and those adjacent.
  • a general objective of the present invention is therefore to produce a universal pot-holder which solves the technical problems specified above, in a simple and practical way.
  • Another objective of the present invention is to produce a pot-holder which can be placed in a cultivation plant in the open air, rapidly and with firm stability.
  • a further objective of the present invention is to produce a pot-holder equipped with elements which can be easily and rapidly connected to other pot-holders in an open-air cultivation, ensuring rapid adjustment to other pot sizes and which can also be repositioned according to measurements established in relation to the type of cultivation.
  • FIGS. 1-8 illustrate a pot-holder 11 according to the invention, equipped with a spacer element 12 of the interaxis between the pots, not shown, and an anchoring wedge 13, whose position can be regulated for blocking each pot in the respective pot-holder 11.
  • the pot-holder 11 has a modular structure, for example, hexagonal, and is produced as a module consisting of a base 14, for example annular and flattened at the bottom, from which a series of uprights 15 extend upwards.
  • the uprights 15 are, for example, in the form of three radial couples, whereby each couple identifies a U-shaped seat 16 facing upwards.
  • Said seat 16 is suitable for receiving both an arm portion 17 of a spacer element 12 and an anchoring wedge 13, after the positioning of the spacer element 12 (figures 2, 3 and 4, 5).
  • the seat 16 On two facing surfaces 18 of the two uprights 15, the seat 16 has a series of reliefs 19 suitable for identifying fitting elements by means of a toothed surface.
  • Complementary fitting elements identified by means of complementary toothed grooves 20 situated on opposite lateral surfaces 21 and oriented towards the outside of each arm portion 17 of the spacer element 12, are applied in these reliefs 19, or in the relative fitting elements of the relative surface 18.
  • the bottom of the seat 16 also has a series of openings 22 identified by various transversal rods 23 and at one end facing outwards, there is also an extension facing upwards 24 suitable for being inserted in an internal outlet (25) for lightening each arm portion 17 of the star-shaped spacer element 12.
  • Said wedge 13 comprises a monolithic body consisting of an upper gripping element 26, lateral surfaces 27, an internal radial supporting surface 29 and a linking element 30.
  • the two lateral surfaces 27 are equipped with a series of reliefs 28 complementary to the reliefs 19 of the two facing surfaces 18 of the two uprights 15, thus identifying further fitting elements with the pot-holder 11 and between the various parts.
  • stable positioning elements (19, 28) are thus formed in a radial direction between the uprights 15 and the wedges 13.
  • the internal radial surface 29 creates a tangential supporting zone for a pot (not shown), when placed inside the pot-holder 11 equipped with three respective spacer elements 12 and three anchoring wedges 13, suitably regulated.
  • each anchoring wedge 13 extends laterally in a linking element 30 consisting of an appendage, of which a portion of the lower end forms a hook 31, which is inserted in an opening 22 situated on the bottom of the seat 16, passing through the internal outlet 25 of the arm portion 17 of the star-shaped spacer element 12, and is hooked onto a transversal rod 23.
  • a linking element 30 consisting of an appendage, of which a portion of the lower end forms a hook 31, which is inserted in an opening 22 situated on the bottom of the seat 16, passing through the internal outlet 25 of the arm portion 17 of the star-shaped spacer element 12, and is hooked onto a transversal rod 23.
  • the appendage 30, forming the linking element is constrained in 36 to the wedge body 13, and is connected to the gripping element 26 by means of an S-shaped extension 32 which creates a certain elasticity between the parts, improving their coupling.
  • the internal supporting surface 29, moreover, is connected from below to the wedge body by means of a pliable curved zone 37 which makes the insertion of the pot more adaptable.
  • the annular base 14 of the pot-holder 11 can also comprise holes 33 for possible further anchorage to the ground.
  • radial spokes 34 can be added together with a central lifting element of the pot 35.
  • Both the facing surfaces 18 of the seats 16 between the two uprights 15, the lateral surfaces 21 of each arm portion 17 and also the lateral surfaces 27 of the wedges 13 are slightly and complementarily reamed to allow a better and more stable connection with each other.
  • the star-shaped spacer element 12 is available in various lengths, making it possible to cover a wide variety of interaxes between the pot-holders 11 (see figures 16 and 17).
  • All the parts can be made of thermoplastic material, also of the recycled type, and can be easily and economically produced by means of moulding.
  • the end article according to the present invention has been studied so as to ensure that the pot-holder 11 has a stable positioning also in the presence of strong winds and allows a wide range of pots to be inserted.
  • the structure moreover, is such as to easily and safely remove rainwater from the bottom of the pot, which can even, in one of the versions, keep the pot raised above the ground.
  • the star-shaped spacer element 12 is available, as already mentioned, in various lengths and has been studied for allowing a correction distribution of even equidistances in the whole cultivation plant set-up. For each specific plant set-up, in fact, it can cover a wide range of interaxes between the pots.
  • This spacer element 13 allows the modules 11 to be fixed to each other forming a cell-like structure capable of resisting stress caused by wind, at times strong, which may blow against the pots.
  • the anchoring wedge 13 is firstly aimed at holding the pot in position preventing it from being overturned, in spite of the pot-holder.
  • This wedge moreover, remains permanently in the seat by means of the hook 31 which passes through the star-shaped spacer element 12 and is firmly anchored to the pot-holder module 11. Finally, it is designed so as to withhold the star-shaped spacer element 12 thus ensuring the housing of the whole structure in the seat.
  • All the elements 11, 12 and 13 can be suitably scaled with appropriate indexes and references allowing an easier setting up.
