Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of planting devices, and more specifically, to a drain plug and a flower box. Background Technology

[0002] As a plant planting device, the flower box includes a box body with a planting cavity. Inside the planting cavity, there is a partition that divides the planting cavity into upper and lower chambers. The partition also has small holes that allow the upper and lower chambers to communicate with each other.

[0003] In actual use, the lower chamber serves as a water storage chamber. When the water in the storage chamber becomes excessive, it needs to be drained promptly; therefore, a drain hole is provided in the casing, and a plug is installed on the drain hole. However, in actual use, the plug detaches from the casing after being pulled out, and the plug is small and easily lost, making it inconvenient to use and requiring improvement. Utility Model Content

[0004] To improve the inconvenience of using plugs, this application provides a drain plug and a flower box.

[0005] This application provides a drainage plug and a flower box, which adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A drain plug includes a plug body and a plug head disposed on the plug body. The plug body has a drain channel, the water inlet end of the drain channel is located at the end of the plug body away from the plug head, the drain end of the drain channel is located on the outer side wall of the plug body, and the plug body also has an anti-detachment part.

[0007] The above technical solution utilizes a drain plug typically made of plastic or rubber. When the drain plug seals the drain hole, the anti-detachment part, through elastic deformation, passes through the drain hole, and the plug head and anti-detachment part form a limit, preventing the drain plug from detaching from the drain hole. The drain plug has both a sealing state and a conducting state. When the drain plug is in the sealing state, it blocks the drain hole. When the drain plug slides outward, causing the anti-detachment part to move to the corresponding end of the drain hole, the drain plug is in the conducting state, thus enabling drainage. The design of the anti-detachment part, plug head, and drainage channel eliminates the need for disassembly; simply sliding the drain plug switches between the sealing and conducting states, making the drain plug more convenient to use.

[0008] Preferably, the end of the anti-detachment part away from the plug is provided with a guide surface, and the guide surface is located on the outside of the anti-detachment part.

[0009] Through the above technical solution, the guide surface can guide the anti-detachment part to undergo elastic deformation, making it easier to insert the drain plug into the drain hole.

[0010] Preferably, the outer peripheral surface of the anti-detachment part is provided with a notch or groove, which extends through the anti-detachment part along the length direction of the plug body.

[0011] The above technical solution creates clearance space for the anti-detachment part during elastic deformation, making installation more convenient.

[0012] Preferably, the notch groove is provided with an auxiliary flow hole that communicates with the drainage channel.

[0013] By using the above technical solution, auxiliary flow holes are set up, which can accelerate the flow of water and make drainage more efficient.

[0014] Preferably, the auxiliary flow hole is provided with a flow guiding surface, which is inclined gradually toward the plug body from the direction close to the drainage channel.

[0015] Through the above technical solution, the guide surface can guide the water flow, making the auxiliary flow effect of the auxiliary flow hole better.

[0016] Preferably, there are two notched grooves distributed around the plug body, and the auxiliary flow holes are arranged corresponding to the notched grooves, with the two auxiliary flow holes distributed opposite to each other.

[0017] With the above technical solution, the two auxiliary flow holes are distributed relatively, and the auxiliary flow holes are used for drainage and diversion at the same time, so that the drainage effect is better.

[0018] Preferably, the outer peripheral wall of the plug is further provided with an extension groove, which extends through the plug body and the anti-dislodgement part in a direction away from the plug head.

[0019] With the above technical solution, in actual use, the extension groove can cooperate with the protrusion on the inner wall of the drain hole to form a positioning effect, making the drain hole more stable when switching between blocking and switching states.

[0020] Preferably, the outer peripheral wall of the plug is provided with a sealing ring groove, which is located on the side of the drain end near the plug head, and the sealing ring groove is used for the installation of a sealing ring.

[0021] The above technical solution provides a better sealing effect when the drain plug is blocked by installing the sealing ring through the sealing ring groove.

[0022] Preferably, an indicator mark is provided at the end of the plug head away from the plug body, the indicator mark being used to indicate the direction of the extension groove.

[0023] The above technical solution uses indicator marks to indicate the position of the extension groove, making the use of the drain plug more convenient.

[0024] This application embodiment also provides a flower box, including a box body with a planting cavity. The planting cavity is provided with a partition, which divides the planting cavity into upper and lower chambers. The lower chamber is a water storage chamber. The box body is also provided with a drain hole communicating with the water storage chamber. The drain hole is provided with any of the drain plugs described above.

[0025] When the drain plug moves to the anti-detachment part and abuts against the inside of the box, the water storage chamber is connected to the outer wall of the box through the drain channel to achieve drainage;

[0026] When the drain plug moves to the point where the plug head touches the outer wall of the casing, the drain plug will block the drain hole.

[0027] With the above technical solution, when the flower box is draining water, the blocking and conduction states can be switched by sliding the drain plug, without having to pull out the entire drain plug, reducing the chance of the drain plug being lost and making the overall use more convenient.

[0028] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0029] (1) By setting up an anti-detachment part, a plug and a drainage channel, the drain plug does not need to be removed. It can be switched between the blocked state and the open state simply by sliding the drain plug, making the use of the drain plug more convenient.

[0030] (2) By setting notch grooves and auxiliary flow holes, the drainage effect is better. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0037] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0038] This application discloses a drain plug and a flower box.

[0039] Example:

[0040] A drain plug, made of plastic and injection molded, see [link to product description]. Figure 1 and Figure 2 The device includes an integrally formed plug body 1, a plug head 2, and an anti-detachment part 3. The plug body 1 is cylindrical, and the plug head 2 has a diameter larger than that of the plug body 1. The anti-detachment part 3 is located on the outer peripheral wall of the plug body 1 away from the plug head 2. The end of the anti-detachment part 3 away from the plug head 2 is provided with a guide surface 31, which is located on the outside of the anti-detachment part 3 and extends to the outer peripheral wall of the plug body 1. The outer peripheral surface of the anti-detachment part 3 is provided with a notch 4, which extends through the anti-detachment part 3 along the length direction of the plug body 1. In this example, there are two notches 4 distributed around the axis of the plug body 1, and the two notches 4 are distributed opposite to each other.

[0041] The outer peripheral wall of the plug body 1 is also provided with an extension groove 5, which extends through the plug body 1 and the anti-dislodgement part 3 in a direction away from the plug head 2. In this example, the extension groove 5 is distributed correspondingly to one of the notch grooves 4 and communicates with the notch groove 4. An indicator mark is provided at the end of the plug head 2 away from the plug body 1. In this example, the indicator mark is arrow-shaped and is used to indicate the direction of the extension groove 5.

[0042] See Figure 2 and Figure 3 The plug body 1 is also provided with a drainage channel 7. The water inlet end 71 of the drainage channel 7 is located at the end of the plug body 1 away from the plug head 2, and the drainage end 72 of the drainage channel 7 is located on the outer side wall of the plug body 1. In this example, the drainage channel 7 extends along the axial direction of the plug body 1, and the water inlet end 71 of the drainage channel 7 is located at the end of the plug body 1 away from the plug head 2.

[0043] Each notch 4 is provided with an auxiliary flow hole 8, located at the bottom of the notch 4, and all auxiliary flow holes 8 are connected to the drainage channel 7. The auxiliary flow holes 8 of the two notches 4 are distributed opposite each other, and each auxiliary flow hole 8 is provided with a guide surface 9, which gradually slopes towards the plug 1 from the direction close to the drainage channel 7. The guide surface 9 can guide the water flow, and the auxiliary flow hole 8 can accelerate the water flow, making the drainage more efficient.

[0044] The outer peripheral wall of the plug body 1 is provided with a sealing ring groove 6, which is located on the side of the drain end 72 near the plug head 2. The sealing ring groove 6 is used for the installation of a sealing ring. When the drain plug is in use, the sealing ring groove 6 is used for the installation of the sealing ring, which makes the sealing effect of the drain plug better when it is plugged.

[0045] This embodiment also provides a flower box, see [link / reference] Figure 4 and Figure 5 The system includes a housing 10 with a planting chamber 11, which extends upwards. A partition 12 divides the planting chamber 11 into upper and lower chambers: the upper chamber is the soil chamber, and the lower chamber is the water storage chamber 13. The partition 12 has small through-holes connecting the upper and lower chambers. When soil is added to the soil chamber, only a very small amount of soil particles will pass through the through-holes into the water storage chamber 13, without affecting its use. In practical use, if it is necessary to reduce soil penetration through the through-holes, a filter layer can be placed on the upper surface of the partition plate. The filter layer can be made of non-woven fabric or filter cotton.

[0046] The housing 10 is also provided with a drain hole 14 that communicates with the water storage chamber 13, and the drain hole 14 is provided with the aforementioned drain plug. When the drain plug moves to the anti-detachment part 3 and abuts against the inside of the housing 10, the water storage chamber 13 is connected to the outer wall of the housing 10 through the drain channel 7 to achieve drainage; when the drain plug moves to the plug head 2 and abuts against the outer wall of the housing 10, the drain plug blocks the drain hole 14.

[0047] When using the flower box, the sliding drain plug allows for switching between blocking and opening states without having to pull the entire drain plug out, reducing the chance of the drain plug being lost and making the overall use more convenient.

[0048] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
