Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention relates to a flower pot saucer that allows heavy flower pots to be easily moved, as well as allowing water level adjustment and drainage.

Recently, it has become popular to keep houseplants indoors, but traditionally, they were heavy when cleaning, moving between rooms, or taking them outside, so they had to be dragged along with the saucer and placed on the floor.
I also had problems with scratching the carpet and tatami mats and hurting my lower back.

Also, when watering, it was inconvenient to adjust and drain the water that accumulated in the saucer.

As a solution to these inconveniences,
Utility Model Application Publication No. 57-41061 has casters attached to a tray-shaped container for holding flowerpots, but since it does not have brakes, it has the drawback that it can drift around in unstable places, on slopes, or in the event of an earthquake. There is.

In addition, in Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 55-55061, the bottom of the saucer body is made into two stages, and the water collects in the hollow of the stage below the center, as a device for discharging water after watering outdoors. A drainage pipe is installed at a height midway between this recess, and the drainage pipe is attached to this plug, but since there is a drain hole in the middle of the recess, it is not possible to drain all the water. In addition, there is no stopper to hold the tip of the pipe upward, so it becomes like a drip when watering. Therefore, even when used indoors, it does not get wet or dirty, making it suitable for outdoor use.

Therefore, in order to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks, the present invention provides a wheel on the tray and a brake.
A drain port is provided at the bottom or at the very bottom of the side surface, a drain pipe movable upward and downward is attached to the drain port, and a stopper capable of holding the tip of the drain pipe is attached to the upper side of the saucer body. It is possible to move, adjust the water level, and drain water freely.

Therefore, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a side view of an embodiment of the present invention in which a drain pipe is held on the side.

Reference numeral 1 denotes a saucer body on which a flower pot is placed, and a plurality of wheels 2 which can be moved in any direction are provided at the bottom of the saucer body 1.

The vehicle 2 may be equipped with a brake system or a separate brake may be attached to the bottom.

Reference numeral 3 denotes a drain port provided on the side surface of the saucer body 1 at a position just below the bottom, and a drain pipe 4 is attached to the drain port 3 so as to be able to move upwardly and downwardly, and can be attached and detached at will. The drain pipe 4 can be freely directed upward or downward by attaching a pipe made of a flexible material. Note that the drain port 3 may be located at the bottom of the saucer body 1.

Reference numeral 5 denotes a stopper for holding the tip of the drain pipe 4 provided on the upper side of the saucer body 1.

Regarding the function and effect of the saucer of the present invention configured as described above, a brake is provided at the bottom of the saucer body 1 on which the wheel 2 is installed, so when moving it, it is necessary to remove the brake, move it, and then fix it. If you apply the brakes, it will be stable even on unstable places, slopes, or during earthquakes.

When watering, if the drain pipe 4 is held by a stopper 5 provided on the upper side of the saucer body 1, the water level can be maintained at the height of the tip of the drain pipe 4.

In addition, since the drain pipe 4 can be oriented upward or downward, when draining water, you can remove it from the stopper 5 and direct it downward to drain an appropriate amount.Alternatively, since the drain port 3 is located at the very bottom, all of the water can be drained. Water can also be drained.

In addition, as another embodiment of the present invention, the drain pipe 4
It may also be possible to remove the drain port 3 and plug the plug 6 into the drain port 3.

Also, if you add about 5 cars 2, it will be more stable.

Additionally, if you raise the sides of the saucer, it can double as a flower pot cover, and if it is well designed, it can also be used as interior decoration.

Also, if the car, brakes, and pipes are removable, it will not take up much space for storage.
