Abstract
1509292 Self-watering plant pots V G WALL 15 March 1976 [15 March 1975 10 Sept 1975] 10891/75 and 37194/75 Heading A1E A self-watering plant pot comprises an outer water reservoir communicating near its base with an inner chamber containing plant growth medium, control means being provided for regulating the flow of water to the inner chamber. In one embodiment an aperture between the reservoir and the chamber accommodates a regulating screw having a tapered shank or a tapered axial slot to vary the flow. In another embodiment a flexible pipe 158 passes through the aperture, the pipe also passing through a clamp 148 which variably constricts the pipe, the free end of the pipe being supported by a float 146 maintaining its inlet beneath the surface 164 of water in an annular reservoir formed between an outer container 128 and an inner container 126. The inner container 126 may have a shield tube 160 containing a tube or rod 162 through which the pipe 158 is threaded. The annular reservoir is closed by a lid 130 having a filling opening closed by a bung 166. In modifications of this arrangement, instead of constricting the pipe by a clamp. adjustable needle valves may be provided in the pipe. The reservoir may be formed by a plurality of interconnected chambers formed around the periphery of the inner, soil holding, chamber.
