Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of landscaping and planting, and in particular to a drip irrigation device for potted plants. Background Technology

[0002] Potted plants are an art form that involves growing plants in pots for indoor and outdoor decoration and beautification. Potted plant drip irrigation is an irrigation system that is mainly used to provide water to potted plants. This system mimics the way rain falls in nature, delivering water slowly and evenly to the roots of the plants through pipes.

[0003] To rationally utilize water resources and ensure that potted plants do not lack water, a drip irrigation device for potted plants is proposed. For example, Chinese Patent Publication No. CN210406529U discloses a drip irrigation mechanism for succulent potted plants, which solves the problem of inconvenience in drip irrigation of succulent potted plants in existing technologies. A drip irrigation mechanism for succulent potted plants includes a pot body. An installation groove along the circumference of the pot body is provided on the inner wall of the pot body near the top. A water delivery pipe is provided inside the installation groove. Several evenly distributed connecting pipes are provided on the inner side of the water delivery pipe. A drip tube is provided at the end of the connecting pipe away from the water delivery pipe. A water tank is provided on the outer side of the pot body, and the water tank is connected to the inside of the water delivery pipe. By setting an installation groove on the inner wall of the pot body and several connecting pipes on the outer side of the water delivery pipe, which are connected to the drip tubes, and by providing a water tank on the outer wall of the pot body, drip irrigation can be performed by filling the water tank with water. This greatly increases the applicability and makes drip irrigation extremely convenient.

[0004] However, in practice, the water supply pipe and drip tube are installed in the mounting groove inside the pot. This means that the drip tube can only be installed in a fixed pot and cannot be used back and forth between multiple pots. This increases the cost of drip irrigation and has certain limitations. Furthermore, it is inconvenient to replace the water supply pipe and drip tube after long-term use. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies, such as the inability to be used between multiple potted plants, which increases the cost of drip irrigation, and to propose a drip irrigation device for potted plants.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] Design a drip irrigation device for potted plants, including a pot body, and a movable seat is provided on the top of the pot body. The movable seat has an opening that matches the top of the pot body, and is fixed to the pot body by a fastener.

[0008] The movable seat has a water delivery hose housed in a cavity at its top. Several horizontally arranged connecting pipes are connected to the side of the water delivery hose, and a dropper is detachably connected to the free end of each connecting pipe.

[0009] Furthermore, the bottom of the movable seat has a pair of downwardly arranged first extensions, which surround each other on all four sides and are stacked between each other to form a mounting groove. The movable seat is movably inserted into the basin through the mounting groove.

[0010] Furthermore, the fixing member is a pair of elastic claws. The first extension on the outer side and the side of the basin are both fixed with the elastic claws by fasteners. The pair of elastic claws are correspondingly arranged and their opposite ends are engaged.

[0011] Furthermore, the top of the movable seat has a pair of upwardly arranged second extensions, the second extensions having the same structure as the first extensions. The top of the outer second extension extends inward to form a shielding portion, and it forms the receiving cavity between the shielding portion and the inner second extension. An installation gap is left between the shielding portion and the inner second extension.

[0012] Furthermore, a clearance groove is provided on the side of the second extension located on the inner side, through which the water delivery hose deforms and enters the receiving cavity, and the clearance groove is used to avoid the drip tube.

[0013] Furthermore, the dropper and the free end of the connecting tube are connected and fixed by a quick-release connector.

[0014] The present invention provides a drip irrigation device for potted plants, which has the following advantages: the water supply hose and the drip tube are fixed together by a quick-release connector, which facilitates the replacement of the drip tube when it is blocked by soil. The water supply hose and the movable seat can be disassembled for easy maintenance and replacement to prevent aging and damage. The movable seat and the pot body can be quickly fixed together by a pair of elastic claws. After drip irrigation of one potted plant, the drip tube can be moved to another potted plant for drip irrigation. It can be used back and forth between multiple potted plants, ensuring that drip irrigation is completed while reducing the cost of drip irrigation and avoiding resource waste caused by fixed use of drip tubes and potted plants.

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0021] Reference Figure 1-4 A drip irrigation device for potted plants includes a pot body 1, and a movable seat 2 is provided on the top of the pot body 1. The movable seat 2 has an opening that matches the top of the pot body 1 and is fixed to the pot body 1 by a fixing member 3.

[0022] The movable seat 2 has a water delivery hose 4 housed in the top through a receiving cavity 21. The water delivery hose 4 has several horizontally arranged connecting pipes 41 connected to its side. The free end of each connecting pipe 41 is detachably connected to a dropper 42.

[0023] Furthermore, the bottom of the movable seat 2 has a pair of downwardly arranged first extensions 22, which surround each other on all four sides and are stacked between each other to form an installation groove. The movable seat 2 is movably inserted into the basin 1 through the installation groove.

[0024] It is worth mentioning that the movable seat 2 is connected to the basin 1 by a pair of first extensions 22, which can be specifically referred to as the end cap of a trash can used to fix the trash bag; this makes it easy to remove the movable seat 2 to replace and maintain its internal components, and also allows drip irrigation to be used back and forth between multiple potted plants.

[0025] Furthermore, the fixing member 3 is a pair of elastic claws 31. The first extension 22 on the outer side and the side of the basin 1 are both fixed with the elastic claws 31 by fasteners. The pair of elastic claws 31 are correspondingly arranged and their opposite ends are engaged.

[0026] Specifically, the elastic claws 31 are provided in at least one pair, and they are preferably made of plastic or rubber, such as... Figure 2As shown, the fastener is a locking bolt, which fixes the elastic claw 31. A locking part is provided between the opposite ends of the pair of elastic claws 31, and the pair of locking parts are used to lock and fix them. Then, by moving the outer elastic claw 31, it is deformed, and then the pair of elastic claws 31 separate, so that the movable seat 2 can be removed.

[0027] More specifically, the top of the movable seat 2 has a pair of upwardly arranged second extensions 23. The second extensions 23 have the same structure as the first extensions 22. The top of the outer second extension 23 extends inward to form a blocking part 24, and the blocking part 24 and the inner second extension 23 together form the receiving cavity 21. An installation gap is left between the blocking part 24 and the inner second extension 23.

[0028] It is worth mentioning that the opening size of the installation gap is slightly larger than the diameter of the connecting pipe 41, and the avoidance groove 231 can prevent the connecting pipe 41 from getting stuck with the second extension 23 when the water supply hose 4 is squeezed in.

[0029] Furthermore, a through groove is provided on one side of the second extension 23. One end of the water supply hose 4 is blocked, and the other end is connected to the water supply device through the through groove. Of course, the specific number of the drip tubes 42 can be set according to the actual situation of the potted plant.

[0030] In general, the second extension 23 located on the inner side has a relief groove 231. The water delivery hose 4 enters the receiving cavity 21 through the installation gap by abutting deformation. The relief groove 231 is used to avoid the drip tube 42.

[0031] Finally, the dropper 42 and the free end of the connecting tube 41 are connected and fixed by a straight quick-release connector 421.

[0032] The straight-through quick-release connector 421 is existing technology and is used to connect and fix the dropper 42 to the connecting tube 41, so as to facilitate the replacement of the dropper 42.

[0033] Working method: During operation, the water delivery hose 4 is installed in the receiving cavity 21 through the installation gap, and the connecting pipe 41 is fixed to the drip tube 42 through the straight quick-release connector 421 and installed in the second extension 23 through the relief groove 231.

[0034] The movable seat 2 is inserted into the pot body 1 through the mounting groove by a pair of first extensions 22. After being inserted into place, a pair of elastic claws 31 are fixed by the locking part to prevent the movable seat 2 from falling off the pot body 1 at will. Finally, water is supplied by the water supply device to drip irrigate the potted plant.

[0035] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
