Description

[Detailed description of the device] [Industrial applications]

The present invention relates to a flowerpot that can continuously supply water.

[Prior art]

Conventionally, when leaving a home for a long time, such as when traveling,
Water was supplied to the flowerpot as shown in the figure. That is, when the flowerpot 12 is placed in the water storage container 13 containing water, the water in the water storage container 13 exudes from the opening 15 provided in the side wall 14 through the opening 17 provided in the bottom wall 16 and is supplied to the roots of the plants. . However, in the conventional flower pot as described above, since the water is supplied from the lower side of the flower pot, the humidity of the lower part of the soil is very high, but the upper part thereof has almost no humidity. for that reason,
There was a defect that the humidity of the lower part was too high and the roots rot.

[Problems to be solved by the device]

The present invention solves the above-mentioned drawbacks, and it is possible to continuously supply water to a flowerpot even when it is absent for a long period of time such as traveling, and it is possible to prevent root rot due to excessive humidity. The purpose is to provide.

[Means for Solving the Problems]

In order to achieve this object, the present invention has the following configuration. In a flowerpot surrounded by a bottom wall provided with an opening and a side wall and having an open upper surface, a water storage container is attached at an outer peripheral position above the side wall,
A narrow groove for supplying water by a capillary phenomenon is continuously provided on the inner wall of the side wall from the side of the reservoir to the side of the upper end of the side wall, and the lateral width of the narrow groove is 0.3 mm or less.

[Action]

When water is added to the water storage container, the water flows from the thin side of the side wall on the side of the water storage container to the narrow groove on the inner surface side of the side wall due to the capillary phenomenon, through the upper side of the side wall. At that time, since water is sequentially supplied to the soil in the flower pot from the top to the bottom, root rot due to excessive humidity can be prevented. By forming the lateral width of the narrow groove to 0.3 mm or less, water is more effectively supplied by the capillary phenomenon.

【Example】

An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a side sectional view of a flower pot, and FIG. 2 is a partial perspective view of a water storage container. A flower pot 1 is surrounded by a bottom wall 3 and a side wall 4 provided with an opening 2 for draining water, and an upper surface thereof is opened. A water storage container 5 is attached to the upper outer peripheral position of the side wall 4, and 6 is a lid for preventing dust and the like from entering the water 7 of the water storage container 5. The narrow groove 8 is continuously provided from the water storage container 5 side A of the side wall 4 to the inner surface side B of the side wall 4 through the upper end side of the side wall 4. In order to effectively supply water by the capillary phenomenon, the lateral width of the narrow groove 8 is formed to be 0.3 mm or less. Plants 10 are planted in a flowerpot 1 containing soil 9, and 11 is the root of the plant 10. Next, the operation of the above configuration will be described. The water supplied to the water storage container 5 is stored in the water storage container 5 on the side wall 4 by a capillary phenomenon.
From the narrow groove 8 on the side A through the narrow groove 8 on the upper end side of the side wall 4 to the side wall 4
Flows into the narrow groove 8 on the inner surface side B of. At this time, water is sequentially supplied to the soil 9 of the flower pot 1 from the upper side to the lower side, so that moisture is not concentrated on a part and the root 11 is not spoiled due to excessive moisture.

[Effect of device]

According to the flowerpot of the present invention, the water in the water storage container is capillarized by the structure in which the narrow groove for supplying water by the capillary phenomenon is continuously provided from the water storage container side of the side wall to the inner surface side of the side wall through the upper end side of the side wall. It flows through the narrow groove and is supplied to the soil in the flowerpot from top to bottom. Therefore, moisture is not concentrated on a part, and root rot due to moisture concentration can be completely prevented. Further, by forming the lateral width of the narrow groove to 0.3 mm or less, water is more effectively supplied by the capillary phenomenon.
