Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of flower pots, and in particular to an anti-siphon smart flower pot. Background Technology

[0002] A flowerpot is a container used for planting flowers, typically shaped like an inverted frustum or truncated pyramid with a wide mouth and a narrow base. Flowerpots come in various forms and sizes. Flower growers and enthusiasts can choose flowerpots based on the characteristics and needs of the flowers, as well as the features of the flowerpot itself. They can be categorized in many ways based on the materials used. Existing flowerpots use an inner and outer pot design, with the flowerpot placed inside the outer pot. A absorbent material, similar to cotton thread, is placed inside the outer pot, allowing the flowerpot to absorb water from the outside, thus automatically watering. However, this inner and outer pot design can easily lead to siphoning, causing water to continuously flow from the water source to the inner pot, keeping the soil constantly moist. In this situation, excessively wet soil prevents the roots from receiving enough oxygen, hindering normal plant growth. Furthermore, a prolonged excessively moist environment easily breeds bacteria and fungi, which can damage the plant's roots, leading to root rot. To address these issues, we have introduced an anti-siphon smart flowerpot. Utility Model Content

[0003] This utility model discloses an anti-siphon smart flowerpot, which aims to solve the technical problem that when the inner and outer pots of the flowerpot are designed, the flowerpot is prone to siphoning, which causes water to continuously flow from the water source to the flowerpot, keeping the soil moist for a long time.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] An anti-siphon smart flowerpot includes an outer basin, a planting basin, a support base, and an adjustment component. The planting basin is placed inside the outer basin, near the top. A fixing groove is formed inside the outer basin, near the bottom. A water storage cylinder is fixedly installed on the top of the support base, extending into the fixing groove and threadedly connected to it. A controller is located on the top side of the outer basin. A soil moisture detection probe is fixedly installed on the controller, near the outer basin, with its bottom end extending into the planting basin. A support frame is fixedly installed inside the planting basin, near the bottom. Several absorbent cotton swabs are fixedly installed through the support frame. A second through groove is formed in the middle of the bottom of the planting basin. A corresponding first through groove is formed inside the outer basin, near the second through groove. Absorbent cotton ropes are fixedly installed at the bottom of each absorbent cotton swab, and fixing rings are fixedly installed at the bottom of each absorbent cotton rope. The fixing rings are fixed by the adjustment component, which moves the fixing rings up and down within the fixing groove.

[0006] With the above-described setup, the threaded connection between the water storage cylinder and the fixing groove makes installation and disassembly more convenient. The absorbent cotton rope, controlled by the fixing ring and adjusting component, can be easily extended or straightened. When the soil moisture sensor detects dry soil, the adjusting component moves the fixing ring downwards, straightening the absorbent cotton rope. This allows water from inside the water storage cylinder to flow along the absorbent cotton rope and absorbent stick to moisten the soil. When the soil moisture sensor detects moist soil, the absorbent cotton rope retracts and leaves the water surface, preventing siphoning. This solves the technical problem of siphoning in flowerpots with inner and outer pot designs, which causes water to continuously flow from the water source to the flowerpot, keeping the soil moist for extended periods.

[0007] In a preferred embodiment, the adjusting assembly includes a fixed column, a base plate is fixedly installed inside the fixed groove via the fixed column, a threaded rod is rotatably connected to the top side of the base plate, an organic groove is formed inside the outer basin near the threaded rod, a motor is fixedly installed inside the organic groove, the top end of the threaded rod extends into the organic groove and is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor, the threaded rod is rotatably connected to the outer basin, a movable plate is slidably connected to the outside of the fixed column, the threaded rod passes through the movable plate and is threadedly connected to the movable plate, and a fixed ring is fixed to the movable plate by screws.

[0008] By setting an adjustment component, the rotation of the motor output drives the threaded rod to rotate, which in turn adjusts the up and down movement of the moving plate. When the soil moisture detection probe detects that the soil is too dry, the moving plate can move down to drive the fixed ring to move down as well, moving it into the water storage tank and close to the bottom. This facilitates the water flow to be guided by the absorbent cotton rope to the absorbent cotton stick for watering. When the soil moisture detection probe detects that the soil moisture is sufficient, the moving plate is moved up, which in turn drives the fixed ring to move up, causing the absorbent cotton rope to leave the water surface. This helps to prevent siphoning and excessive soil moisture.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the support base is configured as a frustum-shaped structure.

[0010] By setting the support base to a frustum-shaped structure, it is beneficial to guide the water flow, and the bottom wall of the planting pot is set as an inclined surface that slopes towards the No. 2 channel.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, a liquid level sensor is fixedly installed on the bottom wall of the water storage tank, and the liquid level sensor, motor, and soil moisture detection probe are all electrically connected to the controller.

[0012] By installing a level sensor inside the water tank, it is easy to know the water level in the tank in a timely manner, so that water can be added promptly.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the top of the planting pot is symmetrically and fixedly equipped with handles.

[0014] The addition of a handle makes it easier to remove the planting pot, making it more convenient to use.

[0015] In a preferred embodiment, the controller is equipped with a conveying device, a mounting block is fixedly installed at the bottom of the controller, and a mounting groove is provided on the side of the outer basin near the controller. The mounting block extends into the mounting groove and is fixed by bolts.

[0016] By extending the mounting block into the mounting groove and fixing it with threads, it is convenient to fix and install the controller, and the conveying device inside the controller can transmit the soil moisture status to the external server in a timely manner.

[0017] The anti-siphon smart flowerpot provided by this utility model has the following advantages:

[0018] Firstly, the above-mentioned design, with its threaded connection between the water storage cylinder and the fixing groove, makes installation and disassembly more convenient. The absorbent cotton rope, controlled by the fixing ring and adjusting components, can be easily extended or straightened. When the soil moisture sensor detects dry soil, the adjusting components lower the fixing ring, straightening the absorbent cotton rope. This allows water from inside the water storage cylinder to flow along the absorbent cotton rope and absorbent stick to moisten the soil. When the soil moisture sensor detects moist soil, the absorbent cotton rope retracts and leaves the water surface, preventing siphoning. This solves the technical problem of siphoning in flowerpots with inner and outer pot designs, which causes water to continuously flow from the water source to the flowerpot, keeping the soil moist for extended periods.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this application described and marked in the accompanying drawings can be arranged and designed in various different configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of this application provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed application, but merely represents selected embodiments of this application. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0025] The anti-siphon smart flowerpot disclosed in this utility model is mainly used in flower planting scenarios.

[0026] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 A smart flowerpot with anti-siphon properties includes: an outer pot body 1, a planting pot body 2, a support base 5, and an adjustment component 9. The planting pot body 2 is placed inside the outer pot body 1, near the top, and a fixing groove 11 is formed inside the outer pot body 1, near the bottom. A water storage tank 51 is fixedly installed on the top of the support base 5, extending into the fixing groove 11 and threadedly connected to it. A controller 3 is located on the top side of the outer pot body 1, and a soil moisture detection probe 4 is fixedly installed on the side of the controller 3 near the outer pot body 1. The bottom end of the soil moisture detection probe 4 extends into the planting pot body 1. Inside the planting pot 2, a support frame 21 is fixedly installed on the side near the bottom. Several absorbent cotton swabs 6 are fixedly installed through the support frame 21. A second through groove 22 is opened through the middle of the bottom of the planting pot 2. A first through groove 12 is opened inside the outer pot 1 near the second through groove 22. Absorbent cotton ropes 7 are fixedly installed at the bottom of each absorbent cotton swab 6. Fixing rings 8 are fixedly installed at the bottom of each absorbent cotton rope 7. The fixing rings 8 are fixed by an adjusting component 9. The adjusting component 9 is used to drive the fixing rings 8 to move up and down inside the fixing groove 11.

[0027] Among them, the support base 21 is set as a frustum-shaped structure; by setting the support base 21 as a frustum-shaped structure, it is beneficial to guide the water flow, and the bottom wall of the planting pot 2 is set as an inclined surface that slopes towards the second channel 22.

[0028] A liquid level sensor is fixedly installed on the bottom wall of the water storage tank 51, and the liquid level sensor, motor 95 and soil moisture detection probe 4 are all electrically connected to the controller 3. By setting a liquid level sensor inside the water storage tank 51, it is easy to know the water shortage inside the water storage tank 51 in a timely manner, so as to add water in a timely manner.

[0029] The top of the planting pot 2 is symmetrically and fixedly equipped with handles 23; by setting handles 23, it is easier to take out the planting pot 2 and make it more convenient to use.

[0030] The controller 3 is equipped with a conveying device inside, and an installation block 31 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the controller 3. An installation groove 13 is opened on the side of the outer basin 1 near the controller 3. The installation block 31 extends into the installation groove 13 and is fixed by bolts. By extending the installation block 31 into the installation groove 13 and fixing it with threads, it is beneficial to fix and install the controller 3. The conveying device inside the controller 3 can transmit the soil moisture status to the external server in a timely manner.

[0031] In this embodiment, the water storage cylinder 51 and the fixing groove 11 are connected by threads, making installation and disassembly more convenient. The absorbent cotton rope 7 is controlled by the fixing ring 8 and the adjusting component 9, which allows it to extend or straighten. When the soil moisture detection probe 4 detects that the soil is dry, the adjusting component 9 moves the fixing ring 8 down, straightening the absorbent cotton rope 7. This allows water inside the water storage cylinder 51 to flow along the absorbent cotton rope 7 and the absorbent cotton stick 6 to moisten the soil. After the soil moisture detection probe 4 detects that the soil is moist, the absorbent cotton rope 7 retracts and leaves the water surface, which helps to avoid siphoning. This solves the technical problem that in the actual use of flower pots with inner and outer pot designs, siphoning can easily occur, causing water to continuously flow from the water source to the flower pot, keeping the soil moist for a long time.

[0032] In the above technical solution, considering the problem of the absorbent cotton rope 7 stretching and straightening, the specific operation is as follows to solve this problem:

[0033] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4In a preferred embodiment, the adjusting component 9 includes a fixed column 91, a base plate 92 is fixedly installed inside the fixed groove 11 via the fixed column 91, a threaded rod 93 is rotatably connected to one side of the top of the base plate 92, an organic groove 94 is formed inside the outer basin 1 near the threaded rod 93, a motor 95 is fixedly installed inside the organic groove 94, the top end of the threaded rod 93 extends into the organic groove 94 and is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 95, the threaded rod 93 is rotatably connected to the outer basin 1, a movable plate 96 is slidably connected to the outside of the fixed column 91, the threaded rod 93 passes through the movable plate 96 and is threadedly connected to the movable plate 96, and a fixing ring 8 is fixed to the movable plate 96 by screws;

[0034] In this embodiment: by setting the adjustment component 9, the output end of the motor 95 rotates, driving the threaded rod 93 to rotate, and then adjusting the moving plate 96 to move up and down. When the soil moisture detection probe 4 detects that the soil is too dry, the moving plate 96 can move down, causing the fixing ring 8 to move down as well, moving into the water storage tank 51 and close to the bottom, so that the water flow can be guided by the absorbent cotton rope 7 to the absorbent cotton rod 6 for watering. When the soil moisture detection probe 4 detects that the soil moisture is sufficient, the moving plate 96 is moved up, and then the fixing ring 8 is moved up, so that the absorbent cotton rope 7 leaves the water surface, which helps to prevent siphoning and excessive soil moisture.

[0035] Working principle: During use, the water storage cylinder 51 and the fixing groove 11 are connected by threads, making installation and disassembly more convenient. The water-absorbing cotton rope 7 is controlled by the fixing ring 8 and the adjusting component 9, which makes it easy to extend or straighten the water-absorbing cotton rope 7. When the soil moisture detection probe 4 detects that the soil is dry, the adjusting component 9 drives the fixing ring 8 to move down, thereby straightening the water-absorbing cotton rope 7. This allows the water inside the water storage cylinder 51 to soak the soil along the water-absorbing cotton rope 7 and the water-absorbing cotton stick 6. After the soil moisture detection probe 4 detects that the soil is moist, it causes the water-absorbing cotton rope 7 to contract and leave the water surface, which helps to avoid siphoning.

[0036] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. The substitutions may be replacements of some structures, devices, or method steps, or they may be complete technical solutions. Equivalent substitutions or modifications made based on the technical solution and inventive concept of this utility model should all be covered within the protection scope of this utility model.
