Expected as a value-added product.

[0003]

By the way, since the paper flower bowl is cup-shaped and has a considerable internal volume for putting seedlings and flowers, the paper flower bowl itself. Selling alone is not only bulky, but also causes deformation such as crushing. For this reason, flowers are sold in cup-shaped small flower bowls made of paper.

However, from the flower seller's side, there is a limit to the kinds of flowers that can be used in this small flower bowl made of paper, and naturally there is no choice but to limit to popular flowers such as cyclamen. On the other hand, from the purchaser's side, there is a wide variety of flowers, and there is a demand for a flower plant of a desired flower planted in a small flower pot.

In view of the above problems, the first object of the present invention is to make it possible for the user to assemble a paper flower small bowl by himself so that the flower can be sold in a developed state without accompanying flowers. A second problem is to realize a small bowl blank, and a second problem is to realize a flower cultivation tool that can reduce the time and effort for preparation in flower cultivation when using the paper flower small bowl blank.

[0006]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, a blank for a flower bowl made of paper according to the present invention is a water-resistant paper blank, which has a bottom plate having a drain hole and its bottom. Side plates that are connected to the face plate via even valley fold lines in an even radial direction of at least 4 and fold pieces for assembly that are connected to opposite side plates outward via valley fold lines, and adjacent sides It is characterized in that it has a water leakage preventing foldable piece that is connected between the face plates via a valley fold line and can be overlapped with each other via a mountain fold line. In such a blank for a flower bowl made of paper, it is preferable that an interference preventing cutout is formed at an end of the mountain fold line of the assembling folding piece. Further, it is preferable that the number of side plates is four and each side plate has a trapezoidal shape. Further, it is preferable that the side plate not having the assembling folding piece has an edge thickness folding piece connected to the outside through a valley fold line.

The paper flower cultivating tool according to the present invention uses a blank for a paper flower pot having such a shape, and a sticking member which can be stuck to the side plate is attached to the inner surface of the assembling folding piece. It is characterized by having. It is desirable that the inner surface of the bottom plate is provided with a seedling raising soil. Further, it is preferable that a seed carrier is attached to the inner surface of the side plate having no assembling folding piece among the side plates.

[0008]

In such a paper flower cultivation tool, the side plate automatically becomes a container-like upright state simply by pushing in the mountain fold line of the water-leakage-preventing folding piece, and the adhesive tape and the surface fastener are retained in that state. The folding piece for assembly can be easily fixed to the side plate with a sticking member such as (magic fastener), and the flower bowl can be quickly assembled. As described above, since the paper cultivation tool of the present invention can be assembled, it is not necessary to integrally sell the plant after flowering and to sell it independently. Therefore, it is possible to plant desired flowers or sow seeds that match the appearance of the paper cultivation tool. If the height of the side plate is longer than the side length of the bottom plate, interference between the assembling folding pieces is likely to occur, but there is no inconvenience because the interference preventing notch is formed. Since the interference preventing cutout is provided, the height of the side plate can be increased to improve the appearance. Further, in the case where the side surface plate is formed in a trapezoidal shape, it is possible to suppress the developing tendency and to lower the center of gravity position, so that the stationary property becomes good. At the same time, since the outer surface of the side plate is slightly upward, the printed pattern on the side plate can be easily seen and the appearance can be improved. Furthermore, when the edge-thickness folding pieces are connected, the strength of the edge portion is improved, and inconveniences such as breakage can be reduced. Furthermore, if the seedling soil base is attached to the bottom plate, it is not necessary to insert soil after assembling,
You can reduce the time and effort required for cultivation. Further, in the case where a seed carrier such as a seed bag or a seed stick is attached, flower cultivation can be enjoyed simply by performing environmental management such as water management and sunlight management.

(B) is a development view of a paper flower cultivation tool using the same. First, the blank 10 for paper flower pots, which is the basis of the paper flower cultivation tool 20, will be described. Blank 1 for this paper flower bowl
Reference numeral 0 denotes a water-resistant paper blank, and as shown in FIG. 1A, a rectangular bottom plate 1 having drainage holes 1a at four corners,
Valley fold lines (dashed-dotted lines) 2a to 5a on the four sides of the bottom plate 1.
Trapezoidal side plates 2 to 5 connected to the outside through a pair of side plates 2 and 4 facing each other and a valley fold line (dashed line) 2
trapezoidal assembling folding pieces 6 and 7 connected to the outside via b and 4b, and other side plates 3 and 5 facing each other to the outside via valley fold lines (dotted line) 3b and 5b. A valley fold line (dotted line) between the connected trapezoidal edge-thickness folding pieces 8 and 9 and the adjacent side plates 2 and 3, between 3, 4 and between 4, 5 and 5 and 2. ) A substantially triangular-shaped water-leakage-preventing folding pieces A and B which are connected to each other via a mountain fold line (broken line) b, and mountain fold lines (broken line) b of the folding pieces A and B It is composed of a notch C for interference prevention formed at the end. In the blank 10 for paper flower bowls having such a shape, the height h of the side plates 2 to 5 is longer than the side length 1 of the regular quadrangular bottom plate. The paper flower cultivation tool as shown in FIG. 1B is constructed by using the paper flower bowl small blank 10. That is, this paper flower cultivation tool 20 is composed of a paper flower pot blank 10, a seedling raising ground (so-called peat van) 11 attached to the inner surface of the bottom plate 1, and inner surfaces of the assembling folding pieces 6 and 7. Adhesive tape pieces 12, 12 attached to
And edge-thickness folding pieces 8 and 9 which are folded back and adhered to the inner surfaces of the side plates 3 and 5, and a seed bag 13 attached to one of the inner surfaces of the side plates 3 and 5. A seed stick may be attached instead of the seed bag, or a fertilizer bag or the like may be attached to the other inner surface of the side plates 3 and 5.

Such a paper flower cultivation tool 20 is assembled and used as follows. First, in the assembly work,
As shown in FIG. 2A, when the mountain fold line b is pushed inward, the side plates 2 to 4 are in an upright state with respect to the bottom plate 1.
Here, since the interference preventing cutouts C are formed in the water leakage preventing folding pieces A and B, the water leakage preventing folding pieces do not interfere with each other with the side plates facing each other. Folds in the state that A and B are correctly overlapped. Then, as shown in FIG. 2B, when the release papers 12a, 12a of the adhesive tape pieces 12, 12 are peeled off to expose the adhesive papers 12b, 12b, and the assembling folding pieces 6, 7 are folded inward,
As shown in FIG. 2C, the adhesive papers 12b and 12b adhere to the water leakage preventing folds A and B and the inner surfaces of the side plates 2 and 4, and the water leakage preventing folds A and B are attached to the side plate 2. , 4 are firmly fixed in a cross-linking manner.

In the paper flower cultivation tool 20 assembled in this way, since the side plates 2 to 5 are trapezoidal, they are trapezoidal box-shaped as shown in FIG. Of course, the shape of the side plates 2 to 5 may be rectangular or inverted trapezoidal, but it is desirable that the side plates 2 to 5 be trapezoidal in order to suppress the development tendency of the side plates 2 to 5 due to water injection during use. It is also meaningful to ensure stability. As shown in FIG. 3 (a), the usage mode of the assembled paper flower cultivation tool 20 is as follows.
For example, the paper flower cultivation tool 20 is set on a paper tray 30 and water is poured. Since the blank 10 of the paper flower cultivation tool 20 is water resistant, there is no risk of water leakage on the side surface.
The blank 10 may be a normal paper, and the inner surface of the blank 10 may be subjected to a waterproof coating (sticking waterproof paper or forming a coat film). Here, in particular, since the bellows-like triangular water leakage preventing folding pieces A and B are connected between the adjacent side surface plates, the water leakage from the side surface ridge portion is effectively prevented. When water is poured, the nursery soil 11 will swell. When the seedling soil 11 is swollen about 3 times or more, the seed 13a is taken out from the peeled seed bag 13 to make the paper flower cultivation tool 20.
Sprinkle in. This completes the initial assembly and treatment, and manages the water so that it does not dry until it germinates. When it germinates as shown in Fig. 3 (b), it is exposed to sunlight to grow a strong seedling.
Then, as shown in FIG. 3 (c), it is well exposed to the sun and raised in a well-ventilated place.

As described above, since the paper cultivation tool 20 of this embodiment can be assembled, it is not necessary to integrally sell the plant after flowering and to sell it independently. Therefore, it is possible to plant desired flowers or sow seeds that match the appearance of the paper cultivation tool. In particular, the side plates 2 to 5 are erected only by pushing in the mountain fold line b, the release paper 12a is peeled off while keeping this state, and the assembly folding pieces A and B can be easily attached to the side plates 2 and 2 with the adhesive paper 12b. It can be fixed to 4 and the flower bowl can be assembled quickly. If the height h of the side plates 2 to 5 is longer than the length l of the bottom plate 1, interference between the assembling folding pieces A and B is likely to occur, but the interference preventing cutout C is formed. There is no such inconvenience.
In particular, it is necessary when the height h of the side plates 2 to 5 is increased to improve the appearance. Further, in the case where the side plates 2 to 5 are formed in a trapezoidal shape, the peculiar development tendency can be suppressed, and the position of the center of gravity is lowered, so that the stationary property is improved. Further, since the outer surfaces of the side plates 2 to 5 are slightly upward, the printed pattern of the side plates can be easily seen and the appearance can be improved. Further, since the edge thickness-imparting folding pieces 8 and 9 are connected to each other, it is possible to improve the strength of the edge portion and reduce inconvenience such as breakage. Furthermore, the seedling raising base 11 is the bottom plate 1
Since it is affixed to, it is not necessary to put soil etc. after assembling, and the labor of cultivation setup can be reduced. Seed bag 13
If is attached, flower cultivation can be easily enjoyed simply by performing environmental management such as water management and sunlight management.

Although the adhesive tape is used as the adhesive member in the above embodiment, the hook and loop fastener (velcro tape) is used.
Etc. may be used. Further, the above-described paper flower cultivation tool 20 has a quadrangular prism shape, but the invention is not limited to this, and the side plate may be an even number such as 6, 8 or the like. Furthermore, although the drain holes 1a are formed at the four corners, a large number of small holes may be formed in the bottom plate 1.

[0014]

As described above, in the paper flower cultivation tool according to the present invention, the side plate is naturally erected by simply pushing in the mountain fold line of the water leakage prevention folding piece, and the state is maintained. The folding piece for assembly can be easily fixed to the side plate with the adhesive member as it is, and the flower bowl can be quickly assembled. Therefore, the following effects are obtained. Since the paper cultivation tool of the present invention can be assembled, it is not necessary to integrally sell the plant after flowering and to sell the plant independently. Therefore, it is possible to plant desired flowers or sow seeds that match the appearance of the paper cultivation tool.

If the height of the side plate is longer than the side length of the bottom plate, interference between the assembling folding pieces is likely to occur, but there is no inconvenience because the interference preventing notch is formed. . Since there is a cutout for preventing interference,
The height of the side plate can be increased to improve the appearance.

Further, in the case where the side surface plate is formed in a trapezoidal shape, the tendency of expansion thereof can be suppressed, and the position of the center of gravity is lowered, so that the stationary property is improved. At the same time, since the outer surface of the side plate is slightly upward, the printed pattern on the side plate can be easily seen and the appearance can be improved.

Furthermore, when the folding pieces for edge thickening are connected, the strength of the edge portion is improved and inconvenience such as breakage can be reduced. Furthermore, when the seedling raising soil is attached to the bottom plate, it is not necessary to add soil or the like after assembling, so that the labor for cultivation can be reduced.
