Description

{Apparatus For Keeping Plant}

The present invention relates to a plant storage apparatus, and more particularly, to a plant storage apparatus which can contain a relatively large amount of water for a long period of time, thereby allowing a plant to be decorated with a flower bouquet or a flower basket or a raw plant isolated from soil or pollen The present invention relates to a storage device for plants.

When making a bouquet from a flower garden, they cut and arrange the pedicles with scissors and wrap them in wrapping paper. In this case, because the flower is exposed in the atmosphere, the flower is inevitable. So the person who received the bouquet should keep the flower in the vase, not too late.

When making a basket, it is possible to store for a relatively long time by using a sponge-like oasis foam used for flower arrangement, but the water evaporates, so there is a limit to the storage time unless water is supplied. And these oases are not suitable for use in bouquets because water can flow down.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings attached hereto. First, one embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.

The vegetable storage apparatus of the present invention is to be installed inside a bouquet or a flower basket. In other words, it can be used when making flower bouquets or flower baskets in flower garden, or when storing various plants separated from soil or pollen. However, it is not limited to bouquets or flower baskets but can also be used for maintenance of various plants. For example, a vegetable storage apparatus of the present invention may be used when decorating a stage with flowers as an event.

The plant storage device of the present invention includes a cup-shaped container body 10 with an open top and a water supply body 2 which is installed inside the container body 10. The water supply member 2 is made of a superabsorbent resin as a main raw material. The superabsorbent resin is a known material which is used in diapers and the like and is capable of absorbing water several tens or hundreds of times its own weight. More specifically, the superabsorbent resin usually has a form of white powder, but absorbs and swells when water is injected. His absorption capacity is about 1000 times his own weight. The superabsorbent resin can be classified into starch-based (starch-based), cellulosic-based, and synthetic polymer-based ones, and any kind can be used.

As a result, when water is supplied to the water-supplying member 2, the water-supplying member 2 becomes jelly-like by the superabsorbent resin. In this state, the branches P of the plant can be inserted as needed.

The container body 10 may be manufactured by molding with a synthetic resin or the like so that the wall thickness is about 1 to 10 mm and the diameter is 50 to 100 mm. The container body 10 may be provided in various forms depending on the use of the plant storage device. The container body 10 may be made of ceramic or gypsum. Further, the container body 10 itself may be made of a high-water-resisting resin.

According to the embodiment of the present invention, a gelling agent can be further added to the water supplying member 2. In this case, it will be possible to extend the time to maintain the gel state to facilitate the flower arrangement.

Although not shown, a coating of rubber, urethane or silicone may be applied to the outer surface of the container body 10 in order to increase the frictional force when the synthetic resin film or the triboelectric current is contacted. This is to prevent the container body 10 from flowing inside the wrapping paper 3 in the bouquet. The coating layer may be formed over part or all of the outer surface of the container body 10.

According to the embodiment of the present invention, the liquid feeder 2 may contain liquid or powdered plant nutrients. Plant nutrients can include plant nutrients. This is to sustain the plant for a longer period of life or to induce further growth. The choice of which plant nutrient is to be added may be chosen by the manufacturer. The plant nutrient may optionally include sawdust or soil.

Hereinafter, another embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 2 to 5. FIG. This embodiment particularly relates to the container body 10. In Fig. 2 to Fig. 3, the wrapping paper 3 in Fig. 1 is omitted.

The container body 10 of the present embodiment includes a frame body 20 for providing a three-dimensional shape of the container body 10 and a cover sheet 11 for covering the outside of the frame body 20.

The frame 20 has an upper ring 21 in the form of a circular ring and a lower ring 22 which is also in the form of a circular ring and smaller in diameter than the upper ring 21, And a plurality of supports 23 connected to the upper ring 21 at one end and connected to the lower ring 22 at the other end. The frame 20 can be changed in shape to some extent by the grip force. They may be integrally formed by injection molding. This is for maintaining the shape of the container body 10. The cover sheet (11) is overlaid on the outside of the frame (20) and is made of a waterproof material. The cover sheet 11 may be a synthetic resin film, a fabric, a rubber cord, a wire or an adhesive tape or the like. The frame 20 may be formed in a clip shape so as to press and fix the branches of the plant.

This structure is intended to maintain the basic shape of the container body 10 made of a soft material so that the container body 10 does not feel a hard feeling even when gripped by the hand. The upper ring 21 is larger in diameter than the lower ring 22, so that it does not give a foreign body feeling to the bouquet.

A protective layer 30 made of a hard rubber material for preventing slippage may be formed on the outer bottom of the container body 10 by coating or the like.

According to another feature of the present invention, the cover sheet 11 is wrapped around the frame body 20 like a wrapping cloth, and the opening 13 (see Fig. 5) is elastically narrowed at the upper end, It is possible to do. To this end, a rubber strip 12 may be provided at the upper end of the cover sheet 11 so that the upper end is resiliently pinched. In this case, the cover sheet 11 made of a waterproof material covers the upper part of the container body 10, thereby suppressing the evaporation of water. Therefore, a vegetable storage apparatus with improved moisture resistance is provided. The cover sheet 11 serves to center the branches of the plant.

According to another embodiment of the present invention, the container body 10 may be constituted by only the flexible cover sheet 11 (or sheet) as shown in Fig. In this case, the container body 10 is made of a completely flexible material and can be used for general purpose by having both elasticity. The cover sheet 11 may serve to fix the plant by fastening the plant by fastening it.
