Description

WATER RESERVOIR FOR POT

More particularly, the present invention relates to a pollen water feeder for automatically feeding water to a plant planted in a flowerpot for a predetermined period of time.

Generally, in home or office space, there is a tendency to raise various kinds of plants in pots for air purifying action or creating an atmosphere. Water contained in the potted soil disappears after planted plants absorb or dry by natural drying It is necessary to supply water periodically considering the size of the pollen, the growth characteristics of the plant, the type of the soil, and the amount of water contained in the soil.

As a method of supplying water (water) to a flowerpot, there may be a method of supplying a sufficient amount of water at a time or supplying a small amount of water frequently, but there is a disadvantage that much qualities and time are required.

On the other hand, in the case of a plant in which water is continuously supplied to the flowerpot, it is necessary to supply the flowerpot periodically in consideration of the condition of the planted flowerpot, but such a work is not practical.

In particular, in the case of plants grown in indoor pots, the user may not be able to supply water for a certain period of time due to carelessness or the absence of a manager for a long period of time, leading to the death of plants.

Due to these problems, there is a growing demand for pollen capable of automatic watering. The utility model application No. 20-2003-0019798, the design name "pollen for environmental beautification" is placed in the support member, To the pots side by the capillary phenomenon so that the water in the water tank is naturally absorbed into the pots side so that the self - water supply can be performed without regular supervision of the administrator.

However, the pollen disclosed in the above document has a problem in that water is naturally absorbed by the absorbing member toward the bottom of the pollen, so that water can not be supplied smoothly to the vegetated plant inside the pollen. That is, since the water is supplied from the upper part to the upper part of the pot without being supplied to the lower part from the upper part of the pot, the amount of water discharged through the floor is larger than the amount of water absorbed into the roots of the plant.

On the other hand, another example of a flowerpot with an automatic watering function is Patent Application No. 10-2005-0094154, and the name of the invention is "water-absorbing flowerpot ".

The conventional pollen is formed of a water-repellent ceramic material as a water-repellent ceramic material, and a protrusion having a hole through which a water-absorbing core is inserted can be protruded from the bottom of the pollen body, By stacking the pollen body on top of the pollen container to be submerged, as the water sucked up by the water absorption wick spreads throughout the pollen body, plants planted in the pollen can continuously grow as much water as needed, By this means, the user tries to eliminate the inconvenience of regularly supplying water to the pots.

However, when the water absorption core is used for a long period of time, there is a concern that bacteria and the like may grow due to water scarcity, so that it is required to be replaced periodically.

In order to solve the above problems, as shown in FIG. 1, the present applicant has disclosed a patent application No. 10-2014-0084306, entitled "a pot with automatic watering function, ".

In this patent, the water supply tube for water supply is provided with a water supply hole having a hollow cylindrical shape, and the upper portion of the water supply hole is located at a higher position than the bottom portion of the water supply tube for water supply and the lower portion of the water supply hole And the pressure adjusting air hole is designed to pass through one side of the bottom portion of the water supply tube for water supply.

However, the water supply canister is very sensitive to the size or position of the water supply hole or the air hole, and thus it is very difficult to apply the water supply can to the mold and the material in general.

That is, the position and size of the water hole or the air hole must be individually applied to the mold depending on the size and the capacity of the irrigation canal, and the design has to be designed for each product in consideration of the shrinkage rate of the material.

Utility Model No. 20-2003-0019798, entitled "Potted Plant for Environment Beautification" Patent Application No. 10-2005-0094154, entitled "water-absorbing pollen" Patent Application No. 10-2014-0084306, entitled "Potted plants with an automatic watering function and watering tanks for supplying water used therein"

7, the pollen water feeder 40 includes a body part 410 having an internal space capable of storing water, a lid part 420 capable of opening and closing the upper part of the body part 410, And a bottom surface portion 430 for blocking the lower surface of the body portion 410.

The pollen water feeder 40 according to the present invention is a device for performing the function of supplying water to a water storage pedestal 30 mounted on one side of the plant receiving part 10 as a main technical idea of the present invention .

Therefore, as shown in FIGS. 7 to 9, the pollen water supply tube 40 according to the embodiment of the present invention includes a water storage pedestal 30 having a water storage space formed therein, A body part 410 having an inner space capable of storing water and a lid part 420 capable of opening and closing the upper part of the body part 410, A bottom portion 430 having a water hole 431 having a predetermined diameter at its center and forming a lower surface of the body portion 410 and a water supply regulating portion 430 penetrating through the water supply hole 431, (440).

The water supply regulating unit 440 blocks the water supply hole 431 when water is injected into the body 410 by opening the lid unit 420. When the lid unit 420 is closed, Air is introduced into the water supply hole 431 until the inside of the body 410 is temporarily sealed and the water level of the water storage pedestal 30 reaches the bottom surface portion 430, So that water is supplied to the water storage pedestal 30 through the water supply hole 431.

7, a water supply hole 431 penetrating through one side of the bottom surface portion 430 is a hole for discharging the water filled in the inner space of the body portion 410 to the outside, and water is supplied to the water supply hole 431 The control unit 440 intervenes and becomes a passage through which the water filled in the inner space of the body 410 is discharged.

Particularly, the water supply regulating unit 440 has a basic structure of a breech 441, a shaft 443 and an engaging member 445, and additionally a guide member 447 as needed, And inserted into the water supply hole 431.

That is, the water supply regulating unit 440 includes a cylindrical bush 441, a shaft 443 having a predetermined length for fixing the center of the bush 441, and a shaft 443 integrally connected to one side of the shaft 443, 431, and the water supply hole 431 is opened and closed by the upward and downward movement of the bail 441.

The water supply regulating unit 440 may further include a guide member 447 inserted into the water supply hole to guide upward and downward movement.

In addition, the breech 441 of the water supply control unit 440 is characterized in that it is made of a material having a density lower than that of water.

FIG. 10 is a perspective view showing a part of a water supply control unit according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 11 is an exploded view of FIG.

10 and 11, the water supply regulating unit 440 has a basic structure of a bore 441, a shaft 443 and an engaging member 445, (447).

The bore 441 is a cylindrical soft material, and buoyancy is generated by using a material having a density lower than that of water. In the present invention, a cylindrical shape is used as an example, but a polygonal shape or an elliptical shape may be used. In the present invention, the bore 441 functions to open and close the inlet of the water supply hole 431 or the guide member 447, so that any shape corresponding thereto can be accepted, and the diameter of the water supply hole 431 or the diameter of the water supply hole 431 Should be larger than the inner diameter of the guide member 447.

The diameter of the bore 441 may be divided into two cases. When the guide member 447 is inserted into the water feed hole 431 and the guide member 447 is inserted into the water feed hole 431, .

When the guide member 447 is discharged and inserted into the direct feed hole 431, the diameter of the blade 441 must be larger than the diameter of the water supply hole 431 so that the inlet can be opened and closed. Since the bore 441 is made of a soft material, the diameter of the bore 441 may be slightly larger than the diameter of the water supply hole 431, and the outer diameter of the bore 441 may be slightly compressed by a hand or a machine so as to pass through the water supply hole 431 and enter the body 410.

When the guide member 447 is inserted into the water supply hole 431, the guide member 447 has a hollow that passes through the center of the guide member 447, It is required to be larger than the inner diameter of the member 447 to open and close the inlet.

At this time, the shaft 443 to be described later is passed through the hollow guide member 447, fixed to one side of the bore 441, and the guide member 447 is inserted into the water supply hole 431 and assembled.

The shaft 443 has a predetermined length and serves to fix the bracket 441 to the latching member 445 described later. Therefore, the shaft 443 uses a material that is harder than the bush 441.

Further, the shaft 443 and the boss 441 may be integrally formed, or they may be separately manufactured and assembled. This can be determined in consideration of economic factors such as manufacturing cost, production time, and the like.

The engaging member 445 has an annular shape protruding from one side of the shaft 443 and has a function to prevent the water supply control unit 440 from easily falling into the water supply hole 431. [

Further, the engaging member 445 implements its shape so as not to completely block the inlet of the water supply hole 431 or the guide member 447. This is because if the engaging member 445 completely blocks the inlet of the water supply hole 431 or the guide member 447, water in the body part 410 is prevented from flowing into the water storage pedestal 30.

The guide member 447 has a cylindrical shape with a hollow and is protruded along the outer circumferential surface at one side and inserted into the water supply hole 431 as shown in FIGS.

The guide member 447 is also a complementary member for easily assembling the water supply regulator 440 when the water supply regulator 440 is inserted into the water supply hole 431.

That is, the guide member 447 serves as a guide for the shaft 443 while forming a passage for discharging water in place of the water supply hole 431, and can easily insert the bladder 441 with the shaft 443 It will function to fill some space after insertion.

When the guide member 447 is inserted into the water supply hole 431, there is a passage as shown in FIG. 9 in which water can flow into the hollow, so that the water stored in the body part 410 flows into the water storage pedestal 30 ).

When the guide member 447 is inserted into the water supply hole 431 of the bottom surface portion 430, the opening of the hollow guide member 447 is opened and closed as the bore 441 moves upward and downward.

In particular, one of the features according to one embodiment of the present invention is that the water supply regulator 440 operates in close cooperation with the lid 420.

In addition, the lid part 420 functions to close and close the inlet of the lock, such as lock & lock, to block the inflow of external air.

That is, when the lid part 420 of the pollen water supply bottle 40 is opened, as shown in FIG. 8, the bail 441 blocks the water supply hole 431, and when the lid part 420 is closed , The water supply hole 431 is opened by the bail 441 as shown in Fig.

Therefore, according to the present invention, the baffle 441 of the water supply regulator 440 is determined to be moved up and down according to whether the lid part 420 of the pollen water supply bottle 40 is opened or closed.
That is, the water supply control unit 440 blocks the water supply hole 431 when water is injected into the body 410 by opening the lid unit 420, and when the lid unit 420 is closed, The inside of the body 410 is closed and air bubbles are generated by the air pressure in the water supply hole 431 until the water level of the water storage pedestal 30 reaches the bottom surface portion 430, 410 to be supplied to the water storage pedestal 30 through the water supply hole 431.

The water supply operation of the pollen water feeder 40 according to the present invention has an example of the following case.

1. When there is no guide member 447 (not shown)

The water supply regulator 440 cuts off the water supply hole 431 while the lid part 420 of the pollen water supply bottle 40 is opened and water is injected into the body part 410.

Then, when a sufficient amount of water is injected into the pollen water supply tube 40 and then the lid part 420 is closed and closed, the water supply hole 431 is opened by the water supply control part 440.

Therefore, when the cover 420 is closed, the water supply hole 431 is opened until the water level of the water storage tray 30 reaches the bottom surface 430, (30).

Next, when the water level of the water storage pedestal 30 reaches the bottom surface portion 430, the water filled in the body portion 410 is stopped from being supplied to the water storage pedestal 30, The water filled in the body part 410 is supplied to the water storage pedestal 30 so that the automatic water supply is performed until the water filled in the body part 410 is exhausted.

2. When the guide member 447 is present

8, when the lid portion 420 of the pollen water supply tube 40 is opened and the water is injected into the body portion 410, the breech 441 of the water supply control portion 440 The upper portion of the guide member 447 inserted into the water supply hole 431 is blocked to prevent water from flowing out.

When the lid part 420 is closed and closed after a sufficient amount of water is injected into the pollen water supply bottle 40, the breech 441 of the water supply control part 440 is raised And the passage through which the water flows can be opened away from the upper portion of the guide member 447 inserted into the water supply hole 431.

9, the inlet of the guide member 447 is opened until the water level of the water storage pedestal 30 reaches the bottom surface portion 430 when the lid portion 420 is closed, The water is supplied to the water storage pedestal 30.

Next, when the water level of the water storage pedestal 30 reaches the bottom surface portion 430, the water filled in the body portion 410 is stopped from being supplied to the water storage pedestal 30, The upper inlet of the guide member 447 is opened again and the water filled in the body part 410 is supplied to the water storage pedestal 30 so that the automatic water supply is performed until the water filled in the body part 410 is exhausted .

Hereinafter, a function of automatically feeding water to a flowerpot without supplying water for a predetermined period using the waterpipe waterpipe according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described.

The water storage pedestal 30 is engaged with the lower side of the plant receiving portion 10 after inserting the intermediate blocking member 20 at the upper portion of the plant receiving portion 10. [

Next, a pollen water supply tube 40 detachably attachable to one side of the plant accommodating portion 10 is attached.

The lower part of the pollen water supply tank 40 is connected to one side of the water storage pedestal 30 so that the water discharged through the water supply hole 431 of the pollen water supply pipe 40 can be stored in the water storage pedestal 30 .

Meanwhile, the soil is introduced into the plant accommodating portion 10, and a part of the input soil is also filled in the plurality of accommodating portions 210 formed in the lower portion of the intermediate blocking member 20.

The water supplied from the pollen water supply tank 40 is filled in the water storage pedestal 30 and the water thus filled is supplied to a plurality of receiving portions 30 formed in the lower portion of the intermediate blocking member 20 located in the inner space of the water storage pedestal 30, The water absorbed by the soil and the water absorbed by the soil are supplied to the plants which are roots in the soil through the grooves formed in the grooves 210 or the plurality of holes formed in the upper part of the intermediate block member 20.

The following effects can be expected when the pollen water supply tube 40 according to the embodiment of the present invention is used.

After a certain amount of water is added, it is very convenient because there is no need to supply water to the pollen until the stored water is exhausted.

Further, there is an advantage that improved water supply can be achieved through the water supply control unit.

Further, as a result of the experiment according to the present invention, it was confirmed that the water supply was remarkably improved in the same condition as that of the general water supply tank.

Up to now, the pollen water supply container according to the present invention has been described through the examples. It is to be understood that both the foregoing description and the following description are illustrative of the present invention and, although specific terms are employed, they are used in a generic and descriptive sense only and not for purposes of explanation, And the like.
