Description

Dispositif pour la protection et la cons-ervation prolongée de plantes en pot et de fleurs coupées.Device for the protection and prolonged conservation of potted plants and cut flowers.

On connaît bien actuellement plusieurs systèmes pour provëge? et conserver les plantes en pot et les fleurs coupées.Are we currently well aware of several proving systems? and keep potted plants and cut flowers.

Il s'agit en géneral de cages, boites, sacs, récipients de formes diverses en bois, matière plastique, carton, celle loîd et autres matériaux.In general, these are cages, boxes, bags, containers of various shapes made of wood, plastic, cardboard, loïd and other materials.

On emploie aussi pour prolonger la conservation desdites plantes ou fleurs des récipients "hermétiques" ou mis "sous vide". Is also used to extend the conservation of said plants or flowers containers "airtight" or put "vacuum".

Cependant, jusqu'à présent il n'a pas été possible d'éviter des inconvénients considérables, dus a l'hétérogénéité frequente de leur contenu.However, until now it has not been possible to avoid considerable disadvantages, due to the frequent heterogeneity of their content.

La plante constituée de feuilles et de fleurs qui est très fragile et délicate est en effet souvent mise dans un pot susceptible de contenir la terre, l'engrais, l'eau, ce qui le rend considérablement lourd.The plant consisting of leaves and flowers which is very fragile and delicate is indeed often put in a pot likely to contain the earth, fertilizer, water, which makes it considerably heavy.

Les secousses, les chocs, etc que les plantes et les fleurs peuvent subir, les endommagent fréquemment en accentuant leur dépérissement du à la privation de leur milieu naturel.The tremors, shocks, etc. that plants and flowers can undergo, frequently damage them by accentuating their decline due to the deprivation of their natural environment.

La présente invention a pour but d'éliminer ou de réduire les inconvénients mentionnés ci-dessus comme illustré ci-après.The present invention aims to eliminate or reduce the drawbacks mentioned above as illustrated below.

Conformément a l'invention, on prévoit un récipient formé essentiellement d'un sac en matière plastique ou en un autre matériau résistant et flexible, ledit récipient étant herme- tique et mis sous pression avec du gaz, en particulier de l'air. Afin de prolonger la conservation, on prévoit l'introduction éventuelle de pesticides, de produits contre la marcescence et aussi de produits nutritifs.According to the invention, there is provided a container formed essentially of a plastic bag or another resistant and flexible material, said container being hermetic and pressurized with gas, in particular air. In order to prolong conservation, provision is made for the possible introduction of pesticides, anti-marcescence products and also nutritious products.

Pour éviter qu'à la suite de secousses, de chocs, de mauvaises positions, la terre et même la plante ne sortent du pot, on prévoit aussi l'enveloppement préventif du pot avec une feuille en plastique ou autre matériau solide et flexible, qui recouvre pratiquement le sommet du pot en laissant seulement un trou central pour le passage des tiges des feuilles.To prevent the earth and even the plant from coming out of the pot following jolts, shocks, bad positions, we also plan to prevent the pot from being wrapped with a plastic sheet or other solid and flexible material, which practically covers the top of the pot, leaving only a central hole for the passage of the leaf stems.

Les feuilles, au moment de l'introduction de la plante dans l'enveloppe,sont forcées vers l'axe central du pot de manière à présenter l'encombrement le plus faible. I1 est ainsi possible d'obtenir un récipient parallélépipèdique à section constante qui facilite le stockage, le transport, l'exposition, l'installation dans les magasins de vente et autre.The leaves, at the time of the introduction of the plant into the envelope, are forced towards the central axis of the pot so as to present the smallest space requirement. It is thus possible to obtain a parallelepiped container with a constant section which facilitates storage, transport, display, installation in sales stores and the like.

Les caractéristiques et buts de la présente invention appa raitrrnt mieux à la lecture de la description d'un mode de réali- sation faite ci-apres avec référence aux dessins ci-annexés dans lesquels
La figure 1 représente une plante et une coiffe
conique; la figure 2 représente la coiffe repliée
sous le pot; la figure 3 représente la partie supé
rieure de la coiffe resserrée par un élastique; la
figure 4 représente le bord supérieur de la coiffe
retourné et serré autour du bord supérieur du pot; la
figure 5 représente une enveloppe en plastique
transparent et la figure 6 représente la plante
insérée dans l'enveloppe mise sous pression.The characteristics and objects of the present invention appear better on reading the description of an embodiment made below with reference to the accompanying drawings in which
Figure 1 shows a plant and a headdress
conical; Figure 2 shows the folded cap
under the pot; Figure 3 shows the upper part
lower of the cap tightened by an elastic; the
Figure 4 shows the upper edge of the cap
inverted and tightened around the upper edge of the pot; the
figure 5 represents a plastic envelope
transparent and figure 6 represents the plant
inserted into the pressurized envelope.

Dans la figure 1 la plante 10 comportant des feuilles 11 est plantée dans du terreau 13 contenu dans le pot 12.In FIG. 1, the plant 10 comprising leaves 11 is planted in potting soil 13 contained in the pot 12.

La coiffe 14 en plastique transparent présentant dans sa partie inférieure un trou 15 est en train d'être ajusté sur le pot.The transparent plastic cap 14 having a hole 15 in its lower part is being adjusted on the pot.

Dans la figure 2, le bord inférieur de la coiffe a été ramené sous le fond du pot, afin de former l'anneau 16.In FIG. 2, the lower edge of the cap has been brought back under the bottom of the pot, in order to form the ring 16.

Dans la figure 3, un élastique ou lien circulaire en caoutchouc 17 enserrant la partie supérieure de la coiffe,crée une partie en forme d'entonnoir 18 tout en laissant un trou 19 pour le passage des tiges.In Figure 3, an elastic or circular rubber link 17 enclosing the upper part of the cap, creates a funnel-shaped part 18 while leaving a hole 19 for the passage of the rods.

La tension de l'élastique donne aussi une surface supérieure tendue 20, qui recouvre la terre en la protégeant.The tension of the elastic also gives a taut upper surface 20, which covers the earth while protecting it.

Dans la figure 4, la partie supérieure de la coiffe a été retournée et fixée par un élastique 21, autour du pot 12.In FIG. 4, the upper part of the cap has been turned over and fixed by an elastic band 21, around the pot 12.

Le sac 23 de la figure 5 présente des soudures 24 le long des côtés 22 afin de créer une gaine solide et suffisamment rigide.The bag 23 of Figure 5 has welds 24 along the sides 22 to create a strong and sufficiently rigid sheath.

Un pliage adéquat de la partie inférieure de la gaine ainsi que des soudures 25, forment un fond presque plat sur lequel repose le pot (figure 6), tandis que les feuilles sont ramenées vers le haut pour obtenir le plus petit encombrement possible.Adequate folding of the lower part of the sheath as well as the welds 25, form an almost flat bottom on which the pot rests (Figure 6), while the leaves are brought upwards to obtain the smallest possible footprint.

Les soudures 26, 27 et similaire, rendent la gaine 29 hermétique; on a introduit à l'intérieur de la gaine de l'air sous pression, ce qui a provoqué un léger gonflement 28. On a effectué un arrosage préventif de la plante et on a placé à l'intérieur de la gaine des éléments nutritifs, des additifs pour la conservation1 des antiparasites et tous produits utiles à la conservation et au maintien du meilleur milieu de vie pour les végétaux.The welds 26, 27 and the like make the sheath 29 hermetic; pressurized air was introduced inside the sheath, which caused a slight swelling 28. A preventive watering of the plant was carried out and nutrients were placed inside the sheath, additives for the conservation1 of antiparasites and all products useful for the conservation and maintenance of the best living environment for plants.

Les avantages de cette invention sont évidents.The advantages of this invention are obvious.

Le milieu pressurisé et humidifié est chargé d'oxygène et d'éléments vitaux pour les plantes et les fleurs bien plus que ce qui peut être contrôlé dans les récipients habituels ouverts ou sous-vide.The pressurized and humidified medium is loaded with oxygen and vital elements for plants and flowers much more than can be controlled in the usual open or vacuum containers.

Les plantes et les fleurs se conservent ainsi longtemps, en supportant sans se détériorer le fait d'être enlevées de leur milieu naturel ainsi que toutes les sollicitations auxquelles elles sont soumises pendant leur stockage, leur transport, l'exposition dans les magasins de vente.Plants and flowers are thus preserved for a long time, supporting without being damaged the fact of being removed from their natural environment as well as all the stresses to which they are subjected during their storage, their transport, the exhibition in sales stores.

La gaine, par suite de la pressurisation, détermine une sorte de coussin élastique tout autour de la plante et du pot, en augmentant ainsi la résistance aux sollicitations extérieures, aux chocs, aux pressions, tandis que la coiffe qui recouvre presque complètement la partie supérieure du pot, empêche la sortie accidentelle de la terre et meme de la plante.The sheath, as a result of pressurization, determines a kind of elastic cushion all around the plant and the pot, thereby increasing the resistance to external stresses, shocks, pressures, while the cap which almost completely covers the upper part of the pot, prevents the accidental exit of the ground and even of the plant.

Comme les applications de cette invention ont été décrites a titre d'exemple indicatif et non limitatif, il est entendu que chaque application équivalente de la présente invention et chaque produit réalisé et/ou agissant selon les caractéristiques de la présente invention,entrent dans son domaine de protection. As the applications of this invention have been described by way of indicative and nonlimiting example, it is understood that each equivalent application of the present invention and each product produced and / or acting according to the characteristics of the present invention, fall within its field protection.
