Abstract

(57) [Summary] (Corrected) [Problem] When growing plants or flowers at home or in a company, it is necessary to water the flowerpots daily or regularly, but overspraying water causes root rot. There were some inconveniences, such as the occurrence of water problems, long-term absence, and inability to supply water on holidays. Therefore,
Develop water supply control technology. SOLUTION: A water retention pad 3 having water retention attached in close contact with a bottom hole 2 of a flower pot 1, a water absorption core 4 having water absorption connected to the water retention pad by being joined thereto, a water pot holding the water retention pad and water. It is composed of a water storage tray 5 having a reservoir function, and the water absorbent core 4 is immersed in the water 7 in the water reservoir and absorbs water by a capillary phenomenon to automatically supply water to the water retaining pad 3 so that it is supplied to the flower pot 1 through the water retaining pad 3. To be done. The amount of water absorption is adjusted by the material and size of the water retaining pad 3 and the water absorbent core 4, and stable growth of plants, flowers and plants can be achieved.

Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to the field of water absorbers for plants and flower pots used for household and commercial purposes, and is widely used for household and horticultural industries.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 In the past, this type of method required the operation of sprinkling water with a jug from the top of a flowerpot such as a plant or flower tree daily or periodically or absorbing water from the bottom of the pot. This kind of water supply is an essential work to keep the growth of flowers and plants healthy, but the water supply control affects the life of plants and flowers. Soil hardens or water spills from the pot over the pot, there is a problem such as root rot due to overspraying, long-term absence, water cannot be supplied on company or store holidays, etc. There were many disadvantages. There were problems such as the need to develop water supply control technology.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

 In the conventional method, due to the problems described above, it is not possible to manually or manually supply water to pots such as plants and flower trees, or the water content is poorly controlled, which adversely affects the growth of plants and flower trees. There was an inconvenient problem such as. To solve this problem, it was necessary to devise a flowerpot water supply controller that can automatically adjust the water supply to flowerpots such as plants and flowers every day.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 As a means for solving the above problems, the flowerpot water supply controller according to the present invention is provided. That is, after making a hole of 1 to 50 mmΦ (which is adjusted according to the type and size of the plant pot) on the bottom of the flower pot, hydrophilicity such as ceramic wool, non-woven cotton polyurethane, polyvinyl alcohol, water-absorbent polymer material is formed on this bottom. A water-retaining pad made of a porous material having water-absorbing property and water-retaining property is brought into close contact with the pad, and the pad is soaked from the center of the pad through the water-absorbing core into the lower water storage tray. As the water absorbent core, a string-like or plane-like one having a hydrophilic and water-absorbing capillary structure such as cotton yarn, ceramic yarn, and water-absorbing polymer yarn is used. The water in the water reservoir is supplied to the water retaining pad through this core, and water is supplied to the potting soil from the bottom of the flower pot such as a plant or flower tree that is in close contact with the water retaining pad. In this case, it is possible to adjust the amount of water absorption given to plants and flowers by adjusting the thickness, size and thickness of the absorbent core and by adjusting the thickness and size of the water retaining pad. Then, water will be automatically supplied according to the amount of water absorbed by the plants and flowers. The water storage tray has a structure in which a perforated bowl, through which a water absorbent core, which is a table for holding a flower pot, is inserted, is attached to the upper portion, and has a water reservoir for storing water in the lower portion. In such a flowerpot water supply controller of the present invention, water is not spilled because the water supply is automatically adjusted for a long time according to the amount of stored water by only supplying water to the water storage tray once. It has excellent functions such as no root rot caused by excessive water supply and no need to worry about water supply manually even during long absences and holidays. In addition, since the water supply can be adjusted according to the water absorption capacity of the roots of the plant, it exhibits excellent characteristics such as the stable growth and growth of plant trees.

[0005]

[Embodiment of the invention]

 Make a hole in the bottom of the flowerpot on the water supply controller that supplies water to the reservoir to store the water, and in the holed pot, keep the water retaining pad in close contact with the hole. The adsorption core is pushed into the water retaining pad to join and connect. In this state, place the flower pot with the water retention pad with the water absorbent core in close contact with it on the perforated dish that is a stand on the top of the water storage dish, and hang the water absorbent core through the hole below the water reservoir. Be seen. At this time, it is recommended that the water absorbent core and the water retention mat be soaked with water so that there are no voids. The amount of water absorption is adjusted by changing the size, thickness and shape of the water retention pad and water absorbent core according to the size of the plant or flower tree. The present invention is implemented in such a form.

[0006]

[Action]

 The capillarity action of the water absorbent core and the water retaining and retaining function of the water retaining pad automatically absorb and retain water, and water is automatically supplied to plants and flowers. The water supply amount is adjusted according to the thickness, size and thickness of the water absorbent core and the water retaining pad.

[0007]

【Example】

 This will be described with reference to the drawings. One plant of Salvia sulvia was planted in No. 5 plant pot I, and a planar water-retaining pad with a 10 mmΦ hole 2 opened at the bottom of this plant pot and made of a sponge-like porous polyurethane with a convex protrusion closely attached to the hole. 3 is closely attached, and a water absorbent core 4 having a diameter of 3 mmΦ is pushed into and bonded to the water retaining pad, and the water absorbent core 4 is attached to the bowl 6 which is a holding stand for the flowerpot provided on the upper part of the water tray of the water tray 5. Cultivation was carried out by dropping the water through a hole in the reservoir water 7 provided at the bottom of the water storage dish. The cultivation conditions in this case are as follows. In the case of No. 5 potted plant, Salvia strain, 0, 3 liters of water storage tray, 3 mm Φ absorbent cotton core, and 5 mm thick cotton non-woven pad are used. Similarly, one Hong Kong Kapok strain was cultivated in the No. 7 flower pot in the No. 7 flower pot in the same manner as above. The cultivation conditions in this case are as follows. In the case of No. 7 flowerpot Hong Kong Kapok 1 strain, a water storage tray 15 l, water absorption core 5 mm Φ cotton core, water retention pad 10 mm thick cotton non-woven fabric is used.

Experimental results: 1. In the case of salvia 2. In the case of Hong Kong Kapok As can be seen from the above results, when the flowerpot water supply controller of the present invention was used, the water supply was automatically adjusted to the plants and showed very good results for growth. This result was the same in planting and flowering trees.

[0009]

[Effect of the invention]

 INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY The present invention has the following effects in the case of planting, flowering trees and flowering plants. The amount of water supplied to the flowerpots is adjusted and water is automatically supplied, so cultivation can be done without much effort. Plants, flowers and vegetation grow well. And so on.
