Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a flower tree cultivating container, and more particularly, a flower tree that does not die and is convenient to handle when producing, distributing, displaying, or retailing orchids, Saintpaulia, and other kinds of flower trees for appreciation or agriculture. The purpose is to provide a cultivation container.

[0002]

[Prior Art]

 In recent years, due to the expansion of living space, various ornamental flowers and trees have been enjoyed in homes and offices, and the production, distribution and sales of these flowers and trees are growing into a large industrial field. Also, in the agricultural field, farmers are not making individual seedlings, but specialized companies are cultivating large numbers of seedlings and putting them on a distribution system for sale.

[0003]

[Problems that the device is trying to solve]

 In such cultivation, distribution and retail of various flower trees, in order to prevent the flower trees from dying, the roots of the flower trees are wrapped in water moss, compost or other medium and stored in a plastic container. There is a problem that it requires a great deal of labor, such as planting in a simple container and supplying water daily until the sale is completed. Further, in the case of the conventional flower tree distribution container, it is difficult to stack the flower tree in a planted state, and a large space is required at all stages of cultivation, distribution and retail. Furthermore, there is a problem that the appearance of the conventional flower tree distribution container is significantly inferior. Therefore, an object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, and to provide a flower tree cultivation container that has a small number of times of water supply, can be stacked at the flow stage, and has a good appearance.

[0004]

[Means for solving problems]

 The above object is achieved by the present invention described below. That is, the present invention comprises a substantially transparent outer container, an inner container detachably attached to the outer container, and a substantially transparent lid detachably attached to the outer container. A space between the inner container and the inner container is filled with a water absorbing material that absorbs moisture, and a water hole is provided on the lower side surface or bottom surface of the inner container. This is a cultivation container.

[0005]

[Action]

 The lower part of the container has a double structure, the inner container is fitted into a transparent outer container, a space is formed between the outer container and the inner container, and the water-absorbing material that absorbs water is put in the space, and a transparent lid is provided. By adding the mark, it is possible to significantly reduce the number of times of water supply by suppressing evaporation of water. In addition, by making the lid transparent in the same way, the flowers and trees that are stored can be viewed directly from the outside, and by making the space formed by the lid larger, it is possible to accommodate the growth of flowers and trees, and the container Stacking is possible and space saving is possible.

【Example】

 The present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the preferred embodiments. The flower tree cultivation container of the present invention comprises a substantially transparent outer container 1 and a transparent outer container 1, as shown in FIG. 1, a sectional view taken along the line AA of FIG. 2a and a plan view of FIG. 2b. It comprises an inner container 2 which may be opaque and a substantially transparent lid 3. Each of the above-mentioned members is extremely easily molded by injection molding or vacuum molding from a highly transparent synthetic resin such as polystyrene, polyethylene, or polyvinyl chloride. Of these, the inner container 1 may be opaque. It is preferable to appropriately change the size of each member depending on the type of flowering tree to be housed and cultivated, and in the case of a flowering tree that tends to grow or a flowering tree that grows quickly, both the diameter and height can be tens of centimeters. In the case of small-sized or slow-growing flowering trees, the diameter or height can be reduced to a few cm.

The outer container 1 may have a shape similar to that of a normal flower pot, and several support bases 4 are formed at the bottom of the outer container 1 in order to maintain a proper space between the outer container 1 and the inner container 2. Has a projection 5 on its top. In this embodiment, four support bases 4 and four protrusions 5 are provided at diagonal positions on the bottom. The inner container 2 has a shape similar to that of the outer container 1 described above, but is formed in a size smaller than that of the outer container 1, and when housed in the outer container 1, an appropriate space is provided between the inner container 2 and the outer container 1. Are formed. A water absorbing material 6 that has absorbed water is stored in this space. The water absorbing material 6 may be an inorganic substance as long as it can absorb and retain a large amount of water or water containing fertilizer, but it is preferable to use an organic water absorbing polymer, and the water absorbing polymer is several tens to several tens of its own weight. It is economical because it can absorb 100 times the amount of water, and because it can hold water in a solid state, even if the container of the present invention falls down, water will not leak out.

At the bottom of the inner container 2, holes 7 each having a diameter smaller than that of the support 4 formed on the bottom surface of the outer container 1 but larger than the protrusion 5 are provided in correspondence with the number of the protrusions 5. The projection 5 is inserted into the hole 7 to prevent the inner container 2 from being laterally displaced. This hole 7 also functions as a water passage hole between the inner container 2 and the water absorbing material 6 that absorbs water on the outside thereof. Further, a water passage hole 8 is provided in the center of the bottom surface, and when the root 10 of the flowering tree 9 grows, the root 10 can extend out from this hole 8.

The outer container 1 is equipped with a transparent lid 3 for protecting the flowers and trees 9, suppressing evaporation of water, and enabling stacking. The lower end of this lid 3 is inserted into a jaw 11 provided at the upper end of the outer container 1 and is freely removable. A vent hole 12 is formed on the upper surface of the lid 3, and more preferably, a slip stopper 14 is provided on the outer side of the lower end of the outer container 1 so that the table 13 can be inserted inside. When stacked, the stack does not collapse. The method of using the container of the present invention as described above will be described. First, at the place where the flower tree is cultivated, the seedling 9 of the flower tree whose root 10 is wrapped with water moss, compost, or other suitable water retaining material 15 is placed inside the container 2 Plant inside. The inner container 2 in which the seedlings 9 are planted is put in the outer container 1, and the projection 5 on the support base 4 of the outer container 1 is fitted into the hole 7 of the inner container 2. Before and after this, an appropriate amount of the water absorbing material 6 is put in the outer container 1 and an appropriate amount of water is added to absorb the water. Further, the lid 3 is put on and the state shown in FIG. 1 is obtained.

The present invention has been described above with reference to a preferred embodiment. However, the present invention is to attach and detach a substantially transparent outer container and an inner container detachably mounted in the outer container to the outer container. A space that is formed between the outer container and the inner container is filled with a water absorbing material 6 that absorbs water, and the lower side surface of the inner container or As long as water holes are provided on the bottom surface, for example, the overall shape is square, pentagonal, hexagonal, ventilation holes and water holes are provided on the side surface, and feet are provided at the bottom of the inner container to provide space. It is clear that various other embodiments can be made in details, such as securing the above-mentioned example, and many embodiments are included in addition to the above-described embodiments.
