[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a pot used for germinating and growing a large number of seeds.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, when growing a large number of seedlings, soft plastic round pots are lined up on a tray having a large number of small holes for drainage on the bottom plate, or a grid frame that can be expanded and reduced on the same tray. The plants are divided into booths, the potted soil is put in each pot or the booths, seeds are sown, and watering is performed.

However, when the above-mentioned round pots are used, it is inconvenient to transplant a large number of seedlings because seedlings must be taken out from each pot at the time of transplantation. In addition, it is inconvenient to take out the seedlings similarly divided into the booths with a lattice frame, and it is necessary to move the seedlings in a tray at all times, which is heavy and inconvenient to handle.

[0004]

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION The present invention aims to improve the efficiency of transplanting work by distributing several pots collectively and taking out seedlings, and to reduce the cost per pot. It is an issue.

[0005]

In the present invention, the first means for solving the above-mentioned problems is that a pair of wall portions continuous at a fold portion are formed of an integral plastic material, and the wall portion is A side wall having a large number of vertical uneven lines and a lower inwardly sloping surface, and a partition wall projecting inwardly from the side wall in a folded shape are alternately continuous, and the partition wall extends from the fold portion. A partition wall that has a trapezoidal base portion and a step portion that extends along the side wall from the base portion in the width direction and partially reverses the step portion at the end surface, and that faces when the wall portion is bent at the fold portion. In the second means, a convex portion is formed on one of the contact surfaces of the pair of partition walls in the first means, and a concave portion is formed on the other surface. Is provided to form a locking mechanism that can be engaged and disengaged. Located in.

[0006]

In the first means, a plurality of independent pot portions are formed by folding the pair of wall portions at the folds and abutting the partition walls, and at the time of transplantation, the pair of wall portions are formed. Open the pots to open all pots at once. Further, in the second means, since the pair of wall portions are integrated by engaging the concave portion and the convex portion of the locking mechanism, unexpected opening can be prevented.

[0007]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 shows a closed state of the multiple seedling raising pot 1 of the present invention, which is provided with several independent pot portions 2 continuously. The pot portion 2 is formed by bending a pair of left and right wall portions 3a and 3b at a fold portion 4 shown in FIG. 3 and combining them in a palm-like shape. The wall portions 3a and 3b are provided with side walls 5 as shown in FIG. 6 and partition walls 7 extending in a folded shape from the side walls 5, 6.
8 and 8 are continuously and alternately provided, and a drain hole 9 is formed at the lower end in a combined state. The pot 1 is thinly formed into a paper shape with an elastic plastic material, and is in a developed state as shown in FIG.
On the side walls 5 and 6 of b, corrugated strip-shaped uneven lines 10 and 11 which become vertical when combined are formed over substantially the entire surface except the upper and lower edges, and the lower part is inclined inward. Inclined surfaces 5a and 6a are provided.

As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the partition walls 7 and 8 are triangular bases 16 and 17 raised by the inner walls 12, 13, 14 and 15 rising from the side walls 5 and 6, and a parallel portion 18 extending therefrom. , 19 and step portions 20 and 21 having steps in the width direction are formed on these end faces.
0 and 21 are opposite steps 20a and 21a whose height difference is reversed on the end side, and both ends are closed by end walls 22 and 23.

The base portions 16 and 17 are continuous with the bent portion 4 which is curved in a small arc shape so as to be easily bent. Between both ends of the bent portion 4 and the inner walls 12 and 14, 1
Slits 9a are provided which pass between 3, 15 and between the side walls 5, 6. The slit 9a is widened by the sum of the heights of the inner walls 12 and 14 during the combination shown in FIG.
Is formed.

At the time of the combination shown in FIG. 1, both the wall portions 3a, 3b.
It is desirable to provide a locking mechanism on the contact surfaces of the partition walls 7 and 8 in order to prevent the locking member 24 from returning to the expanded state. The locking mechanism 24 shown in FIG. The locking mechanism 25 shown in FIG. 6 has a structure in which the recess 24b and the recess 24b are engaged and disengaged in a hook shape.
Similarly, 5b has a structure for engaging and disengaging. The locking mechanism 24, 2
When 5 is provided on the upper ends of the partition walls 7 and 8, that is, on the stepped portions 20a and 21a, it is easy to engage and disengage, and the action of maintaining the palmed state also works effectively.

Since the Honda continuous seedling pot 1 has the above-mentioned structure, when it is bent as shown in FIG.
7, the step portions 20 and 21 are in close contact with each other as shown in FIG. 2, and the other step portions 20a and 21a are also in close contact with each other to prevent the partition walls 7 and 8 from being displaced in the width direction. The partition walls 7 and 8 form a quadrangular shape in plan view, and the inclined surfaces 5a and 6a and the side surfaces of the triangular bases 16 and 17 form a pot portion 2 that narrows downward. Is formed.

As shown in FIG. 7, if the pots 1 are arranged in a tray T having a large number of small holes at the bottom without gaps, the pots 1 can be prevented from developing, and potting soil is put into each pot portion 2 for seeding and watering.
The seedlings can be raised like conventional products. By forming the uneven ridges 10 and 11 in the vertical direction on the side walls 5 and 6 of each pot portion 2, the rigidity is improved and the roots do not extend in a circular shape, but the roots tend to extend downward along the ridges 10 and 11. Occurs and develops well.

[0014]

As described above, according to the present invention, a plurality of pot portions can be formed by bending one unfolded wall body, and each pot portion is opened by unfolding it. At the time of transplantation, several seedlings can be distributed all at once, and the seedlings can be taken out at one time, which has the effect of improving work efficiency. Further, since several pot parts are formed in one wall body, the cost per pot part can be reduced. Furthermore, since the side walls are provided with a large number of concavo-convex stripes, they have an appropriate rigidity and promote the downward growth of the roots, which has the effect of improving the root development.
