BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a cultivation pot mainly used for growing vegetables, fruits, ornamental plants and the like in a greenhouse or the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, the cultivation of vegetables, fruits, ornamental plants, and the like using a greenhouse has become more and more popular. In particular, it is particularly required to increase the yield per unit area.

[0003] However, at present, plants are generally planted directly on the ground even in a house, and the space above is wasted.

[0004] In addition, for example, in the case of cultivation of strawberries, fruits tend to be damaged when they come into contact with the ground, so it is necessary to protect them by laying a multi-film or straw on the ground. Problem arises.

[0005] The cultivation pot of the present invention has been made in view of the above, to increase the yield rate by effectively utilizing the vertical space in the house, to prevent damage to vegetables and fruits,
Moreover, the present invention provides a cultivation pot that can be easily installed and moved.

[0006]

The cultivation pot of the present invention is a plant cultivation pot having a substantially square planar shape, and has a tapered shape in which four side walls are widened upward, and one side wall is substantially inward from the center. It has a support wall projecting toward it and rising from the bottom. The portion of the support wall has a vertical groove extending from the outer surface of the one side wall to the center, and opening vertically and laterally. The vertical groove is separated from the inside of the pot by the support wall. A cutout is provided in the inner side of the upper end of each side wall, in which the corner at the bottom of the upper pot can be fitted when a plurality of pots are stacked at different angles by a required angle.

[0007]

The cultivation pot according to the present invention having the above-mentioned structure is used by stacking a plurality of cultivation pots around one support. At this time, the direction of each pot is changed in order from the bottom, and each vertical groove is fitted to the column from the side, and the column is positioned at the center and installed, and the corner of the bottom of the upper layer pot is removed. The lower pots of different directions are fitted into notches provided substantially at the center inside the upper end of each side wall and stacked.

[0008] In the cultivation pots stacked in this manner, the openings are oriented in different directions one by one, even though the vertical grooves into which the columns are inserted are open toward the side surfaces. The bottom corner of the upper pot fits into the notch of the lower pot, and the rotation and displacement of each pot are restricted to each other. Therefore, the pots are stably held in a state where they do not come off from the pillars and do not fall down.

In this stacked state, the corners of the four corners on the upper opening side of the pots of the respective layers protrude outward from the upper layer pots, so that plants such as vegetables can be grown in these portions.

[0010]

Next, the cultivation pot of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a cultivation pot A of one embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a plan view of the cultivation pot A of the present invention as viewed from above.

The pot A for cultivation according to the present invention comprises a square bottom plate 11 provided with holes 18 for drainage.

A support wall 13 protruding inward from substantially the center of one of the side walls 12 and rising from the bottom plate 11 extends from the side wall 12 to a substantially central portion of the square.
Vertical grooves 14 are provided on the upper, lower, and side surfaces. The vertical grooves 14 are separated from the inside of the cultivation pot A by the support wall 13. A cutout 15 is provided substantially inside the center of the upper end 12a of each of the other three side walls.

The shape connecting four points of the three notches 15 provided at the upper end 12a of the three side walls and the upper end of the vertical groove 14 is as follows.
It is formed so that it may become a square of the same size as the bottom of the cultivation pot A, and the corners 17 of the bottom four corners of the upper pot are fitted to the notch 15 and the upper end of the vertical groove 14 when the pots are used in a stacked manner. It has become. The upper end 13a of the support wall is located at substantially the same height as the notch bottom 15a, so that the bottom of the upper pot can be supported by the upper end 13a of the support wall.

Depending on the width of the vertical groove 14, the upper end of the vertical groove 14 is notched so that the bottom corner 17 can be fitted. Further, the notch 15 does not necessarily need to be provided at the center of the upper end portion 12a of the side wall, and can be provided slightly shifted. In such a case, when the corner 17 at the bottom cannot be fitted into the vertical groove 14, Side wall 12 provided with vertical groove 14
The notch 15 is also formed.

The cultivation pot A of the present embodiment is formed from a synthetic resin foam by integral molding. Examples of the material of the synthetic resin foam include, for example, polystyrene resins such as polystyrene and copolymers mainly composed of styrene, polyvinyl chloride resins, polyolefin resins, and the like, and the expansion ratio is preferably about 20 to 50 times. It is. Moreover, it may be formed using a general synthetic resin without foaming, or may be formed by a baked product such as unglazed, and the material is not particularly limited.

FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing a state in which the cultivation pots A of the present invention are stacked.

As shown in the drawing, the cultivation pot A of the present invention includes a plurality of cultivation pots A around a support 20.
Are used in a stack.

The cultivation pots A are stacked in the following manner.

First, the first cultivation pot A is placed in its flute 1
4 is fitted to the support 20 from the side.
0, and then place the second cultivation pot A,
As described above, the vertical groove 14 is fitted to the column 20,
Place on the first cultivation pot A. At this time, the direction of the second cultivation pot A is changed by a predetermined angle (for example, 45 degrees in the figure) with respect to the first cultivation pot A, and the corner 17 on the bottom surface of the second cultivation pot A is changed. Is placed so as to fit into the notch 15 of the side wall upper end portion 12a of the first cultivation pot A and the upper end portion of the vertical groove 14. The cultivation pot A placed above is supported in a fitted state by the support wall upper end portion 13a and three notch bottom portions 15a. Similarly, the third and fourth cultivation pots A are stacked while changing the direction by a predetermined angle.
