One end is pivotally connected and the other end is detachably fixed, and a flower pot holding part is provided on the opposing surfaces of the parallel fixed arm and movable arm.

It is preferable that the flower pot holding part is formed by cutting out the opposed surfaces of the fixed arm and the movable arm into an inclined surface that becomes lower in the width direction toward the other surface, and further, It is preferable that a cushioning material having an inclined surface is attached to a space provided in the space.

In addition, the flower pot transporter connects the pallets in pairs to each other by a connecting device in a state in which each arm is arranged in tandem,
The handle is swingably attached to a support rod that is fixed across the surfaces of both base plates.

[For production]

When placing flower pots on a pallet, use one movable arm to place several flower pots side by side on a plywood board, engage the clamping parts, and then close and fix the open movable arm. If a flower pot is placed on a pallet in a stable state without moving and falling over, and the pallet is a pair of connected transporters,
It can be lifted via the handle and multiple flower pots can be safely carried at once.

〔Example〕

To specifically explain the pallet and carrier according to the present invention, as shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, an example of the pallet is a platform having downwardly bent legs on both sides of a rectangular top plate. A fixed arm 2 and a movable arm 3 are provided on the plate 1 so as to be parallel to each other in the longitudinal direction. Long slots 4, 4 are drilled in the plate 1 perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, and butterfly bolts 5, 5 are inserted into the slots 4, 4 from the back side of the base plate 1, and nuts are inserted into the fixing arm 2.6. The fixed arm 2 is fixed by screwing into the base plate 6, and is attached so that by loosening the butterfly bolt 5, the fixed arm 2 can be adjusted to move in the width direction of the base plate 1. On the other hand, the means for mounting the movable arm 3 is such that one end thereof is pivotally attached to a support shaft 7 so as to swing laterally, and the other end is locked to the base plate 1 by a lock 8.
It is removably fixed by. The structure of the rock 8 is that a long piece 9 and a short piece 10 are provided parallel to each other with an interval between them so as to form a ``7'' shape on the base plate 1. A locking groove 11 is formed between 9 and 10, and a notch 13 is slid along a longitudinally long guide hole 12 formed at the end of the movable arm 3 and is fitted into the locking groove 11.
In addition, the notch 13 is provided with a knob 14 that projects above the movable date 1.3.

Note that the lock 8 is not limited to the above structure; for example, although not shown, a bolt inserted through the movable arm 3 is attached to the base plate l.
You can also fix it by screwing it into a nut planted in the tree.

The fixed arm 2 and the movable arm 3 are each provided with a clamping part 15 on opposing surfaces thereof, which immovably clamps the flower pot 21. The means for this is formed by cutting out the side surfaces of each arm 2, 3 so as to form an inclined surface that becomes lower in sequence in the ri direction, or by forming a movable side surface with the fixed arm 2. A space is formed on the lower surface of the arm 3, and a cushion material 16 having an inclined surface similar to that described above is attached within the space. This clamping part 15 presses and clamps the lower base part 22 of the flower pot 21 downward via the cushioning material 16. Although not shown, if the flower pot is in the shape of a regular pot or jar, a holding portion may be formed by an arcuate notch on the side edge of each arm 2, 3.

In this case, the flower pot is held from both sides.

As shown in FIG. 1, cutouts 17 from the lower surface are provided at both ends of the bent portions on both sides of the base plate 1. If these notches 17 are provided, the vehicle can be carried by being placed on a wagon 23 formed into a tower shape with pipes, for example, as shown in FIG. By engaging with the pipe 24, it is possible to prevent it from sliding or falling due to vibration or the like during transportation.

Next, as shown in FIG. 6, the above-mentioned carrier using pallets is one in which a pair of pallets are connected in the vertical direction, and a handle 18 is provided protruding from the center of the connection.
The connecting means consists of connecting connecting members 19 and 19 connected to both sides of the back surface of the side base plate 1゜1 flush with each other by tightening bolts, and furthermore, supporting rods 20 extending over both sides on the upper surface. are fixed with screws, and a T-shaped handle 18 is attached to the center of the support rod 20 so as to be swingable from side to side.

With the above structure, there are 21 flower pots on the pallet.
When carrying the flower pot 21 on it, remove the lock 8 and rotate the movable arm 3 to open it. ), by inserting a part of the lower base part 22 into the inclined and cut-out holding part 15 of the fixed arm 2, and after placing a plurality of flower pots 21 in this way, by closing the movable arm 3 to its original state. A part of the lower base part 22 is pressed downward by the clamping part 15 of the movable arm 3, and the lock 8 is applied again, so that the flower pot 21 is immovably fixed and held between both arms 2.3.

Furthermore, with the above-mentioned carrier using a pallet, after holding a plurality of flower pots 21 in a fixed manner as described above, it is possible to carry them by holding the handles 18, and it is also possible to carry one flower pot in each hand. , a plurality of flower pots 21 can be safely transported all at once.

〔Effect of the invention〕

The pallet for flower pots according to the present invention is a plywood board that holds flower pots between a fixed arm and a movable arm, eliminating the risk of the flower bots shifting or falling during transportation, and also eliminating the risk of arranging flowers being disturbed. This makes it possible to transport a plurality of flower pots safely and at once, and not only transporting them but also decorating tables and the like can be done efficiently and quickly.

In addition, between the fixed arm and the movable arm that clamp the flower pot, the distance between the fixed arm and the movable arm is adjustable, so the flower pot can be clamped according to the size of the flower pot, making the clamping state more reliable. Large and small flower pots can be held freely.

On the other hand, since the movable arm is designed to swing horizontally to open and close, it is extremely easy to place and hold flower pots on a pallet, as well as to take them out. Because it is fixed in a detachable manner,
This eliminates the possibility that the movable arm will move during transportation and come out of the clamped state, and the clamped state can be reliably maintained.

In addition, if the holding part provided on each arm is formed by an inclined surface, the lower part of the flower pot will be held in a state that is pressed downward. , J? There is no need to worry about scratches and it will remain integrated with the pallet.

Furthermore, in the case of a transporter using pallets, a pair of pallets are connected vertically and can be transported by a handle provided at the connecting part, so unlike a transporter that is arranged horizontally, it is easy to carry. This makes it easier to transport, maintains balance, and allows a large number of flower pots to be transported at once.
