DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. First, in FIG. 1, the shooter 1 has a semicircular shape with an open upper surface, and is formed in a tapered shape from substantially the center to the tip portion 1a. Guide plate 2
Has a semicircular shape whose lower surface is open, and is also formed in a taper shape from the base end portion 2a to the tip end portion 2b. As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the guide plate 2 is arranged such that the side surface end portion covers the shooter 1, and the base end portion 2a.
Is rotatably attached to the shooter 1 via a pin 3. A tunnel-shaped guide portion 4 is formed between the shooter 1 and the guide plate 2.

The guide portion 4 has a conical shape, and has a large diameter on the base end portion 2a side (hereinafter referred to as the insertion side) of the guide plate 2 and a small diameter on the tip end portion 2b side (hereinafter referred to as the outlet side). However, the shape on the outlet side can be enlarged by rotating the guide plate 2 around the pin 3. The diameter on the insertion side is set to a sufficient size corresponding to the size of the flower portion of the flower 5 to be inserted.

The mounting portion 6 is provided so as to straddle the outer peripheral portion of the guide portion 4, that is, the outer peripheral portion of the shooter 1 and the outer peripheral portion of the guide plate 2, and a bag stopper 7 made of an elastic piece is attached. A plurality of see-through holes 8 are formed on the upper surface of the mounting portion 6 from the bag stopper 7 to the outlet side.

The shooter 1 is a pedestal 9 installed on the floor.
Is installed on the floor, and the angle of attachment with respect to the floor can be adjusted by the angle adjusting device 10 composed of a link member. As shown in FIG. 4, the bag 11 is generally formed of a synthetic resin film such as a polyethylene sheet, and has a trapezoidal shape having a large diameter portion 11a and a small diameter portion 11b. The diameter of the large-diameter portion 11a is set according to the size of the flower portion of the flower 5 to be inserted.

Next, the operation of the above configuration will be described with reference to FIGS.
Will be described with reference to. 1. First, in FIG. 5, the bag 11 is inserted into the mounting portion 6 from the large diameter portion 11a, and the end portion is inserted into the bag stopper 7 and held. 2. Place the flower 5 in which a plurality of fresh flowers are bundled on the shooter 1 (two-dot chain line). As for the outer shape of the flower 5, the stem 5a is thin and the flower 5b is thick.

3, the flower 5 is inserted into the guide 4 with the stem 5a first, and the head of the flower 5b is advanced to the bag 11 relative to the predetermined position. In this case, the position of the flower portion 5b can be easily confirmed by using the see-through hole 8. Also, the stem 5
a projects from the outlet of the guiding portion 4 to the outside. 4. Then, the finger is aligned with the notch 2c, and the end of the bag 11 and the stem 5a of the flower 5 are pressed firmly.

As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the flower 5 and the bag 11 are pulled out integrally. The flower 5 slides on the side surface of the guide plate 2 and moves toward the tapered exit of the guiding portion 4. Flower 5 is
Since the outer shape gradually increases from the stem portion 5a toward the flower portion 5b, the guide plate 2 is pushed up from the position shown by the chain double-dashed line, the tip moves upward, and comes into contact with the inner surface of the bag 11 and stops. . Then, in the flower 5, the flower portion and the leaf portion are compressed by the guide plate 2 in response to the movement of the guiding portion 4 in the outlet side direction, and are reduced to a size corresponding to the bag 11. 6. Further, when the flower 5 is pulled out together with the bag 11, the flower 5 is inserted into the bag 11 at the same time as it passes through the outlet side of the guiding portion 4, as shown in FIG. The flower 5 spreads outward because the compressive force of the guide plate 2 disappears, and comes into close contact with the inner surface of the bag 11.

According to the above embodiment, the following effects can be obtained. a. Insert the flower 5 in which a plurality of fresh flowers are bundled into the guiding part 4,
If the flower 5 and the bag 11 are pulled out integrally, the guide plate 2 compresses the outer shape of the flower 5 into a size corresponding to the bag 11, so that when the flower 5 and the bag 11 pass through the outlet side of the guiding portion 4, they are inserted into the bag 11 as they are. It Therefore, unlike the conventional case, it is not necessary to wind the film while pressing the flower by hand, and it is not necessary to push the flower portion and the leaf portion into the bag, so that the packaging work can be remarkably simplified. b, since the bag 11 is pressed against the flower 5 and binds the flower 5 by the force of the flowers and leaves of the flower 5 spreading outward, a special bundling means such as a conventional string is used. Even without it, the bag 11 does not come off from the flower 5, and the binding means becomes simple.

Since c and the flower 5 slide on the inner surface of the guide plate 2 having a small frictional resistance , the flower 5 is not damaged.
In addition, the guide plate 2 is arranged according to the size of the flower portion 5b of the flower 5.
Since the inner diameter of the bag 11 is fully expanded, the flower portion 5b is excessively pressed.
It is not shrunk and the flower 5 passes through the guiding part 4.
Then, since it contacts the inner surface of the bag 11 as it is,
The flower 5 is not damaged by friction. d. Since the bag stopper 7 is provided on the mounting portion 6, the bag 11 can be easily held. e, since the notch 2c is provided at the tip of the guide plate 2, the bag 1
It is easy to grasp 1 and the flower 5 together. .

FIG. 8 shows an embodiment in which the present invention is applied to a flower 12 in which a flower 12a is planted in a pot 12b. Also in this embodiment, the bag 11 can be grasped together with the pot 12b and both can be pulled out together. For example, the bag 11 can be attached to the outer peripheral portion of the flower 12. Also in this embodiment, the same effect as that of the above embodiment can be obtained.

The present invention is not limited to the embodiment described above and shown in the drawings. For example, the holding metal fitting provided in the mounting portion is not always necessary, and a bag having a small diameter is used. In this case, various modifications can be made without departing from the spirit, such as press-fitting the inner diameter of the bag into the tapered outer peripheral portion of the mounting portion and holding it by the frictional force.
