Description

The present invention relates to decorative containers for potted plants.

Flower shops put potted plants in decorative containers to make them look nicer and sell them according to the customer's request.

As a decorative container for potted plants, one made of a sheet material is known (Patent Documents 1 and 2).

A potted decorative container made of sheet-like material described in US Pat. The sides consist of alternating mountain folds and valley folds, the mountain folds being glued on the underside of the mountain folds.

A decorative container for a potted plant hides the potted plant by putting the potted plant in the container, and decorates the potted plant by the appearance of the shape, pattern, color, etc. of the sides of the container.

By the way, in such a decorative container, when a potted plant is placed in the container, a gap is generated between the container and the potted plant due to the difference in the size of the potted plant, which deteriorates the appearance of the potted plant placed in the decorative container. There was a problem of loss.

In contrast, the potted decorative container made of sheet-like material described in US Pat. The sides consist of alternating mountain and valley folds and have spaced holes. A string is passed through the hole.

Therefore, by pulling the string passed through the side portion of the container, the mountain fold portion and the valley fold portion are squeezed, and the gap between the side portion and the potted plant can be eliminated.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

1 to 3 show a schematic configuration of a decorative container (quick pot cover) 10 for potted plants according to the present invention. FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the decorative container 10, and FIG. FIG. 3 is a plan view of the container 10, and FIG. 3 is an enlarged view showing the main portion III of FIG.

A potted decorative container 10 is for wrapping a potted plant 12, as shown in FIG. That is, the potted plant 12 is placed in the space 18 inside the decorative container 10 at the time of sale so that the entire flowerpot 14 of the potted plant 12 and part of the flower planted in the flowerpot 14 are covered. will be As a result, the potted plant 12 is beautifully ornately wrapped in the decorative container 10.例文帳に追加

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the decorative container 10 includes a container body 11 made by folding one or more sheets of material, a bottom portion 16 on which a potted plant 12 placed in the container 10 is placed, and the bottom portion. a plurality (eg, four) of sides 20 surrounding 16 and extending upwardly therefrom. The bottom portion 16 has a substantially square planar shape, allowing the decorative container 10 to stand on its own. The sides 20 define a tubular space 18 that receives the potted plant 12 .

Each side portion 20 is composed of alternating mountain folds 22 and valley folds 24, and the pair of mountain folds 22 are folded back at the valley folds 24 so that both side portions of the side portions 20 face each other. have.

Each of the mountain folds 22 is provided with a notch 13 through which the rubber cord 30 is passed, as shown in FIG. The cut portion 13 is formed between the bottom portion 16 and the upper edge of the side portion 20 at the mountain fold portion 22, preferably at a position slightly above the center as shown in the drawing (for example, at a position about 150 mm from the bottom portion 16). is provided. The position of the notch 13 can be appropriately selected between the bottom 16 and the upper edge 34 of the side portion 20 in consideration of the rigidity of the sheet material.

The cut portion 13 has a total length of about 10 mm, and the edge of the mountain fold portion 22 is cut so that the lines of each corner of the decorative container 10 (for example, the portion indicated by I in FIG. 1) can be clearly seen. It is provided in an inner part about 10 mm from the part of .

The back side of the mountain fold portion 22 is adhered to the side portion 20 at the position of the adhesion point 32 . By bonding the rear side of the mountain fold 22 by about 10 mm, the mountain fold 22 is kept in a folded state without being opened, so that the cylindrical space 18 formed by the side portion 20 can be maintained. When the sheet-like material is made of heat-meltable synthetic resin, the mountain-folded portion 22 can be easily attached by thermal welding such as ultrasonic welding.

Materials such as paper and natural fibers can be used as the sheet-like material in addition to synthetic resins. Also, the sheet material may be made of nonwoven fabric, woven fabric, plastic film, or the like.

Although the bonding point 32 can be provided at any position, for example, as shown in FIG. 20) is preferred.

This not only makes the corner lines of the decorative container 10 look more beautiful, but also allows the container body 11 to be opened widely when the potted plant 12 is put in when using the decorative container 10.例文帳に追加Therefore, it becomes easier to put the potted plant 12.

The rubber cord 30 is an endless belt that surrounds all the side portions 20 and is sequentially passed through the notches 13 provided in each of the mountain fold portions 22 so as to be exposed on the surface of each side portion 20 . The rubber cord 30 has a width of 5 mm and a length of 300 mm, for example, and has a predetermined elasticity. As a result, when the decorative container 10 is used, the rubber cord 30 squeezes the side portion 20 by its shrinking force, and the container main body 11 is shaped so that the mountain-folded portion 22 and the valley-folded portion 24 are brought closer to the potted plant 12 . transform the Therefore, the gap between the container body 11 and the potted plant 12 can be eliminated without pulling or tying the rubber string 30, and the state can be easily maintained.

A ribbon bow 38 is attached in advance to the exposed portion of the rubber cord 30 corresponding to at least one of the side portions 20 . The ribbon bow 38 is made by tying a ribbon cloth having a width of 36 mm and a length of 800 mm, for example, by tying it in a knot such as a bow in advance. or save time.

Of course, depending on the potted plant 12 to be wrapped, the shape, number, size, color, etc. of the ribbon bow 38 are not limited, such as using a ribbon bow 38 pre-attached to all of the side portions 20.

Next, how to use the decorative container 10 will be briefly described with reference to FIGS. 4(a) to 4(c).

When not in use, the decorative container 10 is stored in a folded state as shown in FIG. 2, for example.

First, the store clerk puts his/her hand into the space 18 of the decorative container 10 and expands the container body 11 to such an extent that the rubber cord 30 is not loosened. Also, the bottom portion 16 of the container body 11 is spread out and flattened to make the decorative container 10 stand up, for example, as shown in FIG.

From this state, for example, as shown in FIG. 4A, the upper edge side of each side portion 20 is opened outward from the vicinity thereof so that the rubber cord 30 has a circular shape. At this time, the container main body 11 may be crushed so that the rubber cord 30 is brought closer to the bottom portion 16 side.

Next, for example, as shown in FIG. 4B, the flowerpot 14 is set so that the potted plant 12 is positioned near the center of the bottom portion 16 of the container body 11 .

Then, after adjusting so that the rubber cord 30 is hung on the peripheral surface of the flowerpot 14, the upper edge side of the side part 20 of the container body 11 is pulled up to remove the flowerpot 14 of the potted plant 12 and part of the planted flower. are covered by the container body 11 .

The decorative container 10 has a ribbon bow 38 attached to the rubber cord 30 in advance. Therefore, by covering the potted plant 12 with the container body 11, it is possible to instantly wrap the potted plant 12 with the decorative container 10 having the ribbon bow 38, as shown in FIG. 4(c).

That is, when the potted plant 12 is wrapped, the decoration of the ribbon can be completed almost simultaneously with the packaging of the potted plant 12, the work such as attachment of the ribbon can be simplified, and the wrapping time can be further shortened.

In addition, in the above-described embodiment, polygons such as triangles, circles, and pentagons may be used instead of squares.

In addition, the container body 11 is not limited to a shape having a pair of mountain folds 22 formed by folding back so as to face both side portions of each side portion 20. It may be a shape having a side portion made of.
