Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea] A floating pot is placed floating on the larger side of a gourd-shaped container, plants are planted on the top, an underwater shelf is sunk in the smaller side and underwater plants are planted, fish are made to swim, terrestrial plants are planted, and plants are planted in the water. It is a floating pot where you can admire plants and fish at the same time.

A through hole 3 is provided in a cylinder made of light foam resin, horizontal radial air holes 4 are passed through from the outer periphery to the inner periphery at the upper part, and an underwater shelf 9 is provided on one side of the lower water.
A net 8 is laid to completely cover the upper surface of the floating pot 2 provided with the water absorber 6, and the upper part of the water absorption tool 6 is spread and buried in the soil 7 through the net, and the lower part is bundled so that the tip is submerged in the water. The container 1, which is long enough to reach, is placed in the gourd-shaped larger side with a gap between the container and the container so that the floating bowl moves up and down with the water surface by buoyancy without tilting.
The floating plate 5 has a thickness of about 10 mm, is hollow and has the same circular shape as the floating bowl, and is installed under the floating bowl to adjust the height between the top surface of the floating bowl and the water surface. In the smaller gourd-shaped part, there is nothing above, and the water surface is in direct contact with the air, providing a sufficient supply of oxygen and allowing ornamental fish 10 to swim. Water is supplied to the upper soil by the capillary phenomenon of the water absorption device. The moisture level of the soil varies depending on the height distance between the water surface and the net surface, so by installing many floating plates under the floating pot and increasing the distance between the water surface and the net surface, the water supply is small and dry land plants are grown. , install a small number of floating plates under the floating pots to keep the distance between the water surface and the net surface at a medium level, supply an appropriate amount of water to plants in permanent wetlands, and eliminate the floating plates to shorten the distance between the water surface and the net surface. By supplying a large amount of water, the area can be used as a wetland by planting wetland plants and admiring it. The larger container has a size that matches the outer periphery of the floating pot, and is floated so that it can be moved up and down while preventing the floating pot, which has a high center of gravity, from tilting and maintaining it horizontally. In the smaller container, there is nothing on the water surface, and the water is in direct contact with air, which dissolves oxygen and allows underwater plants to grow and fish to live in. The net prevents soil from falling and improves ventilation, contributing to plant growth. You can enjoy terrestrial plants, underwater plants, fish, etc. all at the same time in one container.

To explain how to use it, once you pour water into the container, it will naturally replenish the amount of water suitable for planted plants for several days without leaking a single drop of water, and will keep underwater plants, ornamental fish, etc. both still and active at the same time. It can be displayed in a single container and is perfect for decorating stores, dining tables, living rooms, etc. The roots of above ground plants are well ventilated and suitable for growth.

Claims (1)

[Scope of utility model registration request] Several air holes are drilled radially in the cylindrical upper part of the water with through holes, and an underwater shelf is installed on one side of the lower part of the water, and the height of the upper part of the water is adjusted by increasing or decreasing the floating board to maintain a constant level. This variable height floating pot has a structure in which a large container that can hold floating pots of different sizes is connected, and the larger one is floating on the water, and the smaller one has a submerged shelf submerged in the water to widen the contact surface between the water surface and the air.
