Definitions

  • the invention relates to a plant container as a flower pot, as a plant pot or as a planter, also for hydroponics.
  • Plant containers of the type mentioned at the outset have been known for a long time and are available in various designs on the market. In essence, they all ensure that plants can be supplied with water in a container filled with soil or, in the case of hydroponics, with expanded clay, whereby, depending on the design, a water storage container or area can also be provided in addition to this container.
  • a disadvantage of all previously known plant containers is that the opening of the container can become overgrown by the plants and this makes it difficult to water the plants. In addition, the level in overgrown pots is not easy to check.
  • Another disadvantage of the known solutions is that the water introduced into the plant container drains into a coaster and can thereby exceed and overflow its collecting volume, which can result in water damage. If the root ball is to be watered, the previously known plant containers must be placed in a container filled with water. To do this, however, the plants must be transported, which can cause them to be damaged. The pot is also contaminated from the outside by the water bath and must therefore be cleaned again. When the watered plants are transported back, water drips from the pot and has to be collected. The collecting vessels may overflow.
  • the invention is based on the object of providing a plant container which avoids the disadvantages mentioned above.
  • a plant container of the type mentioned at the outset which according to the invention is characterized in that it has at least one lateral one on its upper edge region Has projection as pouring area for irrigation water.
  • the overhang of the edge cannot grow together like the inner area of the plant container, since it is not filled with soil. You can also easily get rid of plant parts. This means that it is always available as a filling area for the irrigation water.
  • the projection can expediently have an inwardly inclined channel in the middle, so that the irrigation water is naturally guided unhindered into the interior of the pot.
  • An embodiment of the plant container according to the invention is preferred in which the lateral projections in their upper region have the greatest radial extension away from the plant container and in their lower region they run on the plant container. Enough slope can be created in the cantilever on the radial path to the plant container so that irrigation water which is poured into the cantilever always flows into the inner region of the plant container.
  • the lateral projections open into the plant container with their lower region at an axial distance from the container bottom. This is usually sufficient to create enough gradients to drain the irrigation water on the radial route to the plant container.
  • the plant container can advantageously have at least two, preferably three, projections on which devices for hanging the plant container can be arranged.
  • the devices for hanging can, for example, simple ropes with loops at their ends, which can be placed around the overhangs.
  • the lateral projections open with their lower area into the bottom area of the plant container.
  • the slope within the projection in the radial direction on the plant container can be made somewhat steeper.
  • An embodiment of this development is particularly simple to manufacture, in which the lateral projections run obliquely from top to bottom onto the bottom region of the plant container.
  • the plant container according to the invention can also be simply placed on the floor in this embodiment.
  • the plant container can have at least one water outlet opening in the bottom area, to which a hose can be attached.
  • the hose can be guided upwards and its open end can be detachably attached to the upper edge of the container.
  • the hose can be used to drain water from the plant container, if necessary, by detaching the open end of the hose from the edge of the container and placing it below the level of the water in the container.
  • the hose can also be used to check the level of the overgrown plant container.
  • the hose can be made transparent and preferably be provided with a measuring scale.
  • the hose can also be used for irrigation, which is advantageous for large nurseries.
  • the container according to the invention it is possible to water the plants in a controlled manner without water overflowing over the edge of the container. It is also possible to fill one or more plant containers with water in a controlled manner via the hose or hoses so that the root balls of the plants can be watered. The water can then be drained off so that no water build-up occurs. This eliminates the need to remove and transport the plants for watering the root ball.
  • Clay, ceramics and plastic are usually used as material for the plant container. Plant containers made of clay are less suitable for hanging because of their weight. Plastic, as a material, is preferable for the plant container, especially from cost greens.
  • Figure 1 is a side view of a first embodiment of the plant container according to the invention.
  • FIG. 2 is a top view of the plant container from FIG. 1;
  • FIG. 3 shows a perspective view of the plant container from FIG. 1 with devices for hanging up;
  • 4a shows a side view of a second embodiment of the plant container according to the invention
  • 4b shows a vertical sectional view through the plane AA of FIG. 4a;
  • FIG. 4c shows a side view of the embodiment according to FIG. 4a rotated by 90 °;
  • Fig. 5a is a top view of the embodiment of Fig. 4a;
  • Fig. 5b is a bottom view of the embodiment of Fig. 4a.
  • Fig. 1 shows a side view of a first embodiment of the plant container 10 according to the invention with three projections 11a, 11b, 11c, which serve as a filling area for irrigation water, and with three feet 12a, 12b, 12c for setting up the plant container 10 on the floor or on other surfaces ,
