[Embodiment of the invention]

 Hereinafter, a flower cover and a flower pot with the flower cover according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 4.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a configuration of a flower pot with a flower cover according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing a partial configuration of the flower cover, and FIG. 3 is an end view showing a state where the flower cover is attached to a flower pot. FIG. 4A is a plan view of the flower cover, and FIG. 4B is a front view of the flower cover.

As shown in FIG. 1 or FIG. 2, a flower cover 1 is attached to a flower pot 11. The flower cover 1 is made of polystyrene, and has an annular support portion 2 for supporting the upper part of the flowerpot 11, a through hole 3 provided in the support portion 2, and extending in opposite directions from the periphery of the support portion 2. And a bent portion 4 that can be bent in the vertical direction. Further, the bent part 4 includes a cover part 5 that can cover the flowers planted in the flower pot, a holding part 6 that holds the upper part of the flower pot 11 in cooperation with the support part 2, and two parts. The holding section 9 holds this state when the bent sections come into contact with each other. In FIG. 2, the other bent portion 4 is not shown for convenience of explanation.

As shown in FIG. 3, the inside of the flowerpot 11 is composed of a flowerpot 12 for cultivation in which the flowers 10 are planted, and a pumping rod 13 hanging down from the lower part of the flowerpot 12. The flower pot 12 is received by the receiving portion 11 b of the flower pot 11, and the pumping rod 13 sucks up the water accumulated at the bottom inside the flower pot 11, so that the flower 10 is sufficiently distributed.

The through hole 3 is larger than the diameter of the lower part of the flower pot 11 and smaller than the diameter of the upper part of the flower pot 11. Therefore, when the flower pot 11 is inserted from above the through hole 3, the support portion 2 receives the upper portion 11 a of the flower pot 11 when the diameter of the through hole 3 becomes equal to the diameter of the flower pot 11.

When the bent portion 4 is bent in a direction substantially perpendicular to the support portion 2, the upper portion 11 a of the flowerpot 11 is held by the holding portion 6 provided on the bent portion 4 and the support portion 2. . When the two bent portions 4 are bent in the vertical direction, they come into contact with each other, and the holding portion 9 holds the bent portions 4 in contact with each other. Since the upper portion 11a of the flowerpot 11 is continuously held by the holding portion 6 and the support portion 2, the flower cover 1 does not come off from the flowerpot 11. The holding portion 9 includes a convex portion 9a protruding from the one bent portion 4 and a concave portion 9b concavely provided on the other bent portion 4. The concave portion 9b has a claw (not shown), and when the convex portion 9a is inserted, the claw is temporarily pressed by the claw. If the protrusion 9a is further inserted to the back, it is released from the nail and returns to the original shape. The convex portion 9a and the concave portion 9b are engaged, and the holding portion 9 holds the two bent portions 4 in a state where they are in contact with each other.

Further, since the covering portion 5 is formed of a transparent or translucent member, it is possible to confirm the flowers (not shown) planted in the flowerpot 11 without removing the flower cover 1.

The bent portion 4 has an opening 7, which is matched by bringing the two bent portions 4 into contact with each other. It is possible to carry the attached flower pot 11.

When the flower cover 1 is attached to the flowerpot 11, a ventilation gap 8 is formed between the bent portions 4. The gap 8 is provided so that air can sufficiently spread to the flowers 10 planted in the flower pot 11 even after the flower cover 1 is attached, and is formed so that there is no problem in growing the flowers 10. .

As described above, in the above embodiment, the upper part 11 a of the flower pot is held by the support part 2 and the holding part 6, and the bent part 4 is kept in contact with the holding part 9. The flower cover 1 does not come off the flowerpot 11. The user can also carry the device by hooking a finger on the opening 7. Further, since the covering portion 5 is in a greenhouse state, a warming effect can be obtained, and the gap 8 allows sufficient air to reach the flowers, which can also help the growth of the flowers.

Further, the flowers planted in the flower pot 11 are covered by the cover portion 5 and protected by the flower cover 1, so that the flowers 10 are not damaged even if mishandled.

By the way, in the flower cover 1 as one embodiment of the present invention, the covering portion 5 is shown as having a hemispherical shape (see FIG. 4). However, the shape is not limited to this shape. It can be formed according to the size and shape of the flower 10 to be planted in the flowerpot 11.

In the holding portion 9 as one embodiment of the present invention, a convex portion 9a is formed in one bent portion 4 and a concave portion 9b is formed in the other bent portion 4, and the convex portion and the concave portion are engaged. Although the holding means has been described, the holding means is not limited to this. There is no problem even if the shape is further devised or a simple holding means such as a cellophane tape is used.

As another embodiment of the present invention, when the two bent portions 4 are brought into contact with each other, a plate or cardboard designed with a product name, a description of the product, or the like is inserted between the bent portions 4. It is also possible. According to this, by displaying the contents of the product, it is possible to give a sense of security to the purchaser and also to appeal the product.
