Description

The utility model relates to the field of indoor plant growing, namely, to containers for growing indoor plants, in particular indoor violets.

The following solutions are known in the art.

So, from the description of the patent of the Russian Federation No. 2323740 (published on June 27, 2008), a flower pot is known that contains a bottom with an opening, a wall forming a coiled trough that has jumpers dividing it into sections to prevent water from flowing from one section to another when watering plants.

In addition, a container is known (JPH patent No. 01196231, published 08/08/1989), which contains a base with holes, support parts, side walls containing sections fastened together, along the outer edge of which holes are made for connection with subsequent sections by means of rods. In addition, a support rod may be inserted into the base. The container is configured to resize.

A container is known, which is a clay pot, inside of which there is an insert for placing soil and plants (German application No. 4244370, published 04.11.1993).

Also known container for indoor plants, containing a cache-pot and flowerpot-tab. The plant is planted in a flowerpot tab and inserted into a cache-pot. To avoid excessive watering or washing the pot, the tab can be pulled out (website http://pink-apple.ru/product/kashpo-plastik-arte-belo-chernyj/).

Disadvantages are the likelihood of clogging holes in the ground, the difficulty of controlling watering.

As you know, indoor plants require proper watering of the soil. It is impossible to accurately calculate the irrigation regime, because the need of plants, in particular violets, for irrigation depends on several factors, namely:

- lighting. The more intense the lighting, the faster the substrate dries;

- air humidity. The lower the humidity, the more watering will be necessary. On cloudy rainy days, the humidity is very high, so pay attention to how slowly the substrate dries;

- It matters how long the violet has been transplanted, how developed its root system is. If the roots are already well covered with a lump of substrate, it will dry out quite quickly;

- the moment of flowering. Flowering bushes of senpolia can consume more water, this must be taken into account;

- composition of the substrate. A light, very friable substrate dries faster than a denser one;

- air temperature. It is clear that at lower air temperatures the substrate dries out more slowly (website http://myflora.in.ua/poliv-uchimsya-chuvstvovat-fialku.html).

Thus, it is extremely difficult to calculate the volume and frequency of irrigation, and, therefore, it is difficult to provide the most comfortable conditions for the plant.

The closest analogue to the patented solution is a container for indoor plants (RF patent No. 154046, published 08/10/2015). The container contains an outer casing with a hole in which the inner container is partially inserted so that between the bottom of the outer casing and the bottom of the inner container there is a space for filling with water, while the bottom and side surface of the inner container are made with holes, and the shape and size of the holes of the outer casing corresponds to the shape and size of that part of the inner container that is in contact with its edges.

During the operation of this container, it was found that due to the respiration of plant roots and water being drawn into the soil from the pots due to the capillary effect, a vacuum is formed in the space between the container with the soil and the pots and the moisture and air exchange between the soil and the pots is disrupted and the flow of water to the roots is disrupted plants.

The technical result of the patented solution is to increase the reliability of nutrition of the root system of the plant with water by achieving the required air exchange and soil moisture.

The claimed technical result is achieved due to the design of the container for indoor plants, which contains an outer casing, expanding upwards, with an opening in which the inner container is partially inserted so that between the bottom of the outer case and the bottom of the inner container there is a space for filling with water, the bottom and side the surface of the inner container is made with holes, while the bases of the outer case and the inner container are made in the form of different figures, one of which is inscribed in the other when inserted Cored oil container into the outer housing, the size of the lower base of the inner container larger than the lower base of the outer housing and smaller than the upper opening of the outer housing.

The holes made on the inner container are vertical slots, the inner container and the outer container are made of expanding shape, preferably of a polymeric material.

Due to the fact that the size of the lower base of the inner container is larger than the size of the lower base of the outer case and smaller than the size of the upper hole of the outer case, the inner container is completely inserted into the outer container, providing free space between the bottoms and side walls of the outer container and the inner container. Thus, due to the formation of free space between the bottoms and side walls of the housing and the tank, as well as due to the holes in the bottom and the side surface of the inner tank, free circulation of air and the supply of the required amount of water to the root system of the plant due to the capillary effect are achieved, while the holes are not clogged with soil and there is no need for constant monitoring of plant watering.

The container is produced by injection molding.

Next, the solution is illustrated by reference to the figures, which represent the following.

FIG. 1 is a bottom view of the container.

FIG. 2 is a side view of the container.

FIG. 3 is a top view of the container.

As shown in the figure, the container comprises an outer casing 1 into which the inner container 2 is partially inserted so that a space is formed between the bottom and side walls of the outer casing and the bottom and side walls of the inner container. Vertical slots are made on the side surface of the inner container, and holes (not shown) are made on the bottom. The inner container 2 is made in the form of a polyhedron expanding upward, the lower base of which is inscribed in a circle formed by the side walls of the outer casing 1.

The inner container 2 is removed from the outer case 1, into which water is poured, after which the inner container returns to its place.

The container for indoor plants, including an outer casing, expanding upward, with an opening in which the inner container is partially inserted so that between the bottom of the outer case and the bottom of the inner container there is a space for filling with water, the bottom and side surface of the inner container are made with holes characterized in that the bottom section of the outer shell and the bottom section of the inner container are different figures, while the projection of the section of the inner tank on the section of the outer shell is is an inscribed figure, and the size of the bottom of the inner container is larger than the size of the bottom of the outer case and smaller than the hole size of the outer case, into which the inner container is partially inserted. 2.
