Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a flower pot. Background Art

[0002] Usually, flowerpot is the vessel that is used to plant and cultivate plants such as flowers or trees. Known this flowerpot has plastic injection molding, i.e. plastic flowerpot and ceramic flowerpot baked with soil etc.

[0003] Such plastic or ceramic flower pots have a cold and hard feeling due to the characteristics of their materials, and therefore have limitations in giving a natural and spontaneous feeling.

[0004] As an existing technology to improve this problem, a log flower pot disclosed in Korean Authorized Utility Model Gazette No. 20-0427153 is manufactured in the following manner: a log with a thick outer layer is prepared as a material and the prepared log is cut horizontally, leaving only 5 to 10 mm on the outside of the log, and the wooden part inside is dug out.

[0005] However, the existing log flower pots provide a technical structure that involves a method of digging out the wood with a machine, so there is a problem of extended manufacturing time due to the time required for digging. In particular, for oak trees with hard wood, there is a problem of extremely low production capacity. For example, the processing blade is damaged before a few are produced. Due to the characteristics of flower pots, they are often in contact with water, so there is a problem of reduced durability such as the wood being easily rotten, so they cannot be mass-produced, and there is a problem that they cannot be developed and circulated as a commodity in reality.

[0047] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings so that those skilled in the art can easily implement the present invention. However, the present invention can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein.

[0048] Figure 1 is a cross-sectional view schematically showing a log outer skin flower pot according to a first embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 It is schematically shown Figure 1 Illustration of the process of making log bark flower pots. Figure 3 Yes Yes Show Figure 1 A three-dimensional picture of a log-bark flower pot. Figure 4 It is schematically shown Figure 3 Illustration of the state of growing plants in log bark pots.

[0049] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the log skin flower pot 100 of the first embodiment of the present invention comprises: a skin L12, a peripheral forming portion 110 and a bottom surface forming portion 120. Figures 1 to 4 , each component is described in detail.

[0050] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the outer skin L12 is one of the components used to form the outer peripheral forming portion 110. Figure 2 As shown, the outer skin L12 can be peeled off from the wood part L11 of the log L10 and has a longitudinal cut portion S11. For example, in order to obtain the outer skin L12, the log L10 is cut into a set length ( Figure 2 a portion), which can be cut longitudinally ( Figure 2The outer bark L12 of the cut log L10 is peeled off from the wood part L11. Then, the outer bark L12 can be provided after being dried.

[0051] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the outer periphery forming portion 110 is a component for forming the outer periphery of the log outer skin flower pot 100 of the present invention. Figure 2 As shown, the outer peripheral forming portion 110 may include the outer skin L12 peeled off from the wood portion L11 of the log L10, and may be in a vertically penetrating shape (see Figure 2 b) of the

[0052] like Figure 1 As shown, the bottom surface forming part 120 is a component for forming the bottom of the log outer skin flower pot 100 of the present invention. Such a bottom surface forming part 120 can be set in a manner to block the lower opening of the peripheral forming part 110. For example, the bottom surface forming part 120 may include a plate-shaped bottom surface forming part 121 that blocks the lower opening of the peripheral forming part 110. Furthermore, the bottom surface forming part 121 can be made of a waterproof material such as plastic. For reference, when the log outer skin flower pot 100 of the present invention is placed on a table, etc., the bottom surface forming part 121 is a component facing the upper surface of the table, so compared with the outer skin L12 of the peripheral forming part 110, its external exposure is quite small, and it may be more advantageous to use plastic with good waterproof properties instead of logs. Furthermore, the bottom surface forming part 121 can be made of a transparent material, and can be made of PET (polyethylene terephthalate) material, which is a kind of plastic.

[0053] Therefore, since the constituent elements as described above are provided, the log bark flower pot 100 of the present invention can form a natural original appearance through the bark L12 of the log L10, thereby can faithfully express the natural feeling. Unlike the prior art that manufactures flower pots by laboriously digging out the hard wood of the log, the bark L12 of the log L10 can be easily separated by peeling it from the wood L11, thereby significantly improving production capacity, so that the log bark flower pot 100 of the present invention can be mass-produced.

[0054] Furthermore, the outer skin L12 forming the outer covering of the outer peripheral forming portion 110 can be peeled off from the wood portion L11 of the log L10 by pretreatment, i.e., by boiling or using a peeling agent (containing sodium hydroxide). Therefore, even without using a separate physical tool (a saw or a knife, etc.) for peeling, the outer skin L12 of the log L10 can be peeled off from the wood portion L11 more easily by such pretreatment, and ultimately, it is more conducive to the mass production of the log outer skin flower pot 100 of the present invention.

[0055] Below, continue to refer to Figures 1 to 4 , the outer peripheral forming portion 110 is described in more detail.

[0056] The outer peripheral forming portion 110 may have a structure that blocks water from penetrating into the outer peripheral forming member 111 made of the outer skin L12. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the outer peripheral forming part 110 may include: an outer peripheral forming member 111, an outer peripheral waterproof member 112, an outer peripheral fixing member 113 and an outer peripheral filler 114. The outer peripheral forming member 111 may be made of an outer skin L12, and may have a state in which a longitudinal cut portion S11 of the outer skin L12 is bonded with a wood adhesive. The outer peripheral waterproof member 112 may be in a pipe shape and may be located inside the outer peripheral forming member 111. The outer peripheral fixing member 113 may fix the outer peripheral forming member 111 and the outer peripheral waterproof member 112 to the bottom surface forming member 121 so that a set interval is maintained between the inner surface of the outer peripheral forming member 111 and the outer surface of the outer peripheral waterproof member 112. The outer peripheral filler 114 may be made of a waterproof material and may be filled between the inner surface of the outer peripheral forming member 111 and the outer surface of the outer peripheral waterproof member 112. Among them, PET or the like can be used as the outer waterproof component 112, silicone or the like can be used as the outer fixing part 113, which is used to improve the sealing force between the outer forming component 111 and the outer waterproof component 112 and the bottom surface forming component 121, and transparent epoxy resin can be used as the outer filler 114.

[0057] Therefore, even if water is poured on the plants in the log bark flower pot 100 of the present invention, the water flowing to the peripheral forming part 111 can be blocked by the peripheral waterproof part 112 and the peripheral filler 114, thereby preventing the peripheral forming part 111 made of the bark L12 of the log L10 from rotting or mold, and ultimately improving the moisture resistance, so that the log bark flower pot 100 of the present invention can be used semi-permanently.

[0058] At the same time, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the log skin flower pot 100 of the first embodiment of the present invention may further include a bottom filler 122. The bottom filler 122 may be filled on the bottom forming member 121. The bottom filler 122 may be filled to a thickness of about 15 mm to 20 mm. Therefore, together with the bottom forming member 121, the thickness of the bottom of the log skin flower pot 100 of the present invention may be strengthened and the waterproof performance may be improved.

[0059] In addition, a transparent epoxy resin may be used as the bottom surface filler 122. Furthermore, the transparent epoxy resin used as the bottom surface filler 122 may further contain a toner (not shown) for forming a bottom surface pattern.

[0060] At the same time, Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the log outer skin flower pot 100 of the first embodiment of the present invention may further include a drainage hole 130. The drainage hole 130 may be in a shape that penetrates the bottom surface forming member 121 and the bottom surface filler 122.

[0061] At the same time, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the log skin flower pot 100 of the first embodiment of the present invention may further include a bottom surface support member 140. The bottom surface support member 140 may be disposed on the lower surface (i.e., the bottom surface) of the bottom surface forming member 121, and may support the bottom surface forming member 121 in a state separated from the ground. Therefore, the drainage hole 130 is not blocked by the table, so that the drained water can be smoothly drained to the outside. For example, the bottom surface support member 140 may be made of a rubber material or coated with a rubber material.

[0062] Below, refer to Figures 1 to 5 , a method for manufacturing the log outer skin flower pot 100 according to the first embodiment of the present invention is described.

[0063] Figure 5 It is schematically shown Figure 1 Flow chart of the manufacturing method of the log outer skin flower pot.

[0064] First, the method for manufacturing the log skin flower pot 100 according to the first embodiment of the present invention is to cut the log L10 into a set length ( Figure 2 Part A and Figure 5 For reference, the set length may be the height of the log bark flower pot 100 of the present invention.

[0065] Next, the bark L12 of the cut log is pretreated so that the bark is smoothly peeled off from the wood part L11 (step S120). As an example, the pretreatment process (step S120) is not shown in the figure, but can be carried out through the following series of processes: prepare a container filled with water (not shown), place the cut log in the prepared container, and heat the water for a set time. Among them, the set heating (boiling) time can be about 1 hour. As another example, the pretreatment process is not shown in the figure, but can be carried out through the following series of processes: prepare a container filled with water, add a stripping agent containing sodium hydroxide to the prepared container, and soak the cut log in the container with the stripping agent for a set time. Among them, the set soaking time can be about 2 days.

[0066] Then, the bark L12 of the pretreated log can be separated from the wood part L11 by cutting the bark L12 longitudinally. Figure 2 Part b and c of Figure 5Next, the separated outer skin L12 is dried in a cool place (step S140). Then, the outer skin forming part 110 including the dried outer skin L12 and the bottom surface forming part 120 including the bottom surface forming part 121 are used to form the outer skin and bottom surface of the log outer skin flower pot 100 of the present invention (step S130). Figure 2 Parts d, e, f and g of Figure 5 Specifically, the process of forming the periphery and the bottom surface ( Figure 5 Step S150) is as follows.

[0067] First, the outer peripheral forming member 111 ( Figure 2 The d part, Figure 5 Then, in order to block water from penetrating into the inner surface of the peripheral forming member 111, a tubular peripheral waterproof member 112 ( Figure 5 Next, the combination of the outer peripheral forming member 111 and the outer peripheral waterproof member 112 can be fixed to the bottom surface forming member 121 by the outer peripheral fixing portion 113, so that the interval between the inner surface of the outer peripheral forming member 111 and the outer surface of the outer peripheral waterproof member 112 is maintained at a set interval ( Figure 5 Finally, a peripheral filler 114 made of a waterproof material may be filled between the inner surface of the peripheral forming member 111 and the outer surface of the peripheral waterproof member 112 ( Figure 5 Step S154).

[0068] In the process of completing the peripheral forming part 111 ( Figure 5 In step S151), the cut portion S11 of the outer skin L12 can be bonded with a wood adhesive. And, the process of fixing the bottom surface forming member 121 using the peripheral fixing portion 113 ( Figure 5 In step S153), the bottom surface forming member 121 may be plate-shaped and may be made of waterproof materials such as plastics. PET (polyethylene terephthalate) material may be used as plastics, and silicone may be used as the peripheral fixing portion 113 to improve the sealing force between the peripheral forming member 111 and the peripheral waterproof member 112 and the bottom surface forming member 121. The set interval between the peripheral forming member 111 and the peripheral waterproof member 112 may be about 3 mm to 5 mm, PET may be used as the peripheral waterproof member 112, and transparent epoxy resin may be used as the peripheral filler 114.

[0069] At the same time, in the process of filling the peripheral filler as described above ( Figure 5 After the step S154 is completed, the process of forming the periphery and the bottom surface ( Figure 5The step S150 may further include a process of filling the bottom surface filler 122 on the bottom surface forming member 121 ( Figure 5 Step S155). The bottom filler 122 may be filled to a thickness of 15 mm to 20 mm.

[0070] Then, after filling the bottom filler 122, the drainage hole 130 can be formed by penetrating the bottom forming member 121 and the bottom filler 122 (step S160). Finally, the bottom support member 140 is provided on the lower surface of the bottom forming member 121 to support the bottom forming member 121 in a state separated from the ground (step S170).

[0071] Below, refer to Figures 6 to 8 , the log bark flower pot 200 according to the second embodiment of the present invention is described.

[0073] like Figure 6 As shown, except for the outer peripheral forming portion 210, the log bark flower pot 200 of the second embodiment of the present invention is the same as the first embodiment of the present invention described above, so the following description will mainly focus on this.

[0074] like Figure 6 As shown, the outer periphery forming part 210 may include: an outer periphery forming member 211, an outer periphery waterproof member 212, an adhesive 213 and an outer periphery fixing member 214. The outer periphery forming member 211 may be made of an outer skin L12, and its circumference may be measured by a longitudinal cut portion (refer to Figure 2 The outer peripheral waterproof member 212 may be provided in a directly split state without bonding the wood with an adhesive. The outer peripheral waterproof member 212 may be in a pipe shape and may be wrapped by the outer peripheral forming member 211 in a split state. The adhesive 213 may bond the inner surface of the outer peripheral forming member 211 to the outer surface of the outer peripheral waterproof member 212. The outer peripheral fixing portion 214 may fix the combination of the outer peripheral forming member 211 and the outer peripheral waterproof member 212 bonded to each other to the bottom surface forming member 121.

[0075] The perimeter of the outer surface forming part 211 can be cut to have an inner diameter corresponding to the outer diameter of the outer surface waterproof part 212. A PVC hose that is harder than PET can be used as the outer surface waterproof part 212, and silicone or the like can be used as the outer surface fixing part 214 to improve the sealing force between the outer surface waterproof part 212 and the bottom surface forming part 121.

[0076] Below, refer to Figures 6 to 9 , a method for manufacturing the log bark flower pot 200 according to the second embodiment of the present invention is described.
