Abstract

(57) [Summary] [Purpose] To simplify the work of storing cut flowers in a water container in a watertight manner. [Structure] A band-shaped or sheet-shaped sealing material (1) having water-swelling property is wrapped around a stem (6) of a cut flower (5) and inserted into a container (4), and the sealing material is filled with water in the container. Inflate to seal the container mouth in a watertight manner.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a conserved structure of cut flowers.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Conventionally, when transporting or carrying cut flowers, water is put in a test tubular synthetic resin tube, the mouth of the tube is covered with a rubber lid, and the stem of the cut flower is passed through the center hole of this lid to prevent water leakage. Prevents and saves cut flowers.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 In the above conventional method of storing cut flowers, it is troublesome to put a lid on the mouth of the cylinder and to insert a stem of cut flowers into the hole, and the water tightness is not sufficient, and water may leak.

An object of the present invention is to provide a cut flower stem which can be easily inserted into a tubular container in a watertight manner and stored, and whose water leakage can be completely prevented.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In order to achieve the above object, the present invention wraps a band-shaped or sheet-shaped sealing material having water swelling property around a stem of a cut flower and inserts it into a container, and expands the sealing material with water in the container. It is configured to seal the mouth of the container in a watertight manner.

[0006]

【Example】

 Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be specifically described with reference to the drawings.

The water-swellable band-shaped or sheet-shaped sealing material (1) is formed of a highly water-absorbent rubber obtained by mixing a natural rubber or an artificial rubber with a resin having a water-absorbing property, and an adhesive ( 2) is laminated, and the release paper (3) is attached to this adhesive layer. As a result, the sealing material can be cut into a predetermined length and stacked, or can be rolled.

The container (4) formed of a synthetic resin in a test tube shape can be manufactured at low cost and is suitable for single use, and is also convenient for packing in a case and transporting.

When the sealant (1) is wrapped around the stem (6) of the cut flower (5), it is cut into one roll and a little length, the release paper (3) is peeled off, and the adhesive surface ( Wrap 2) toward the stem (6) side and stick one end on the other end. The outer diameter of the wound sealing material (1) is smaller than the inner diameter of the container so that it can be easily inserted into the container (4).

After inserting the stem (6) of the cut flower (5) into the container (4) together with the sealing material (1), water (7) is injected into the container or water is previously injected into the container. After that, the stems of cut flowers are inserted together with the sealant. As a result, the sealant (1) absorbs the water (7) and expands, tightens the stem (6) to such an extent that water does not leak, and is pressed against the inner peripheral surface of the container (4) in a watertight manner. Stop leaks.

[0011] The container (4) may be a vase (not shown) other than the test tubular one, and in this case, it may be used on a table that shakes like a dining car or the like that may fall over. Useful for.

[0012]

[Effect of device]

 According to the present invention, as described above, the band-shaped or sheet-shaped sealing material (1) having water-swelling property is wrapped around the stem (6) of the cut flower (5) and inserted into the container (4). Since 1) is inflated with water in the container to seal the mouth of the container in a watertight manner, it is easy to store the cut flowers in the container in a watertight manner.
