Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to potted flower pots, and more particularly to a multifunctional composite potted flower pot. Background Technology
[0002] Plastic flower pots are popular due to their low price, attractive appearance, and lightweight and durable material. Currently, most plastic flower pots on the market are single-layered. However, these single-layered pots lack insulation and other protective structures, making them susceptible to changes in ambient temperature, which can negatively impact plant growth. This is especially true for heat-sensitive plants with well-developed root systems (such as peonies). Traditional single-layered plastic pots cannot adequately protect them from the heat of summer or the cold of winter. On the one hand, if heat-sensitive plants cannot survive the summer heat, it will affect their explosive root growth in autumn. On the other hand, low temperatures can cause root damage. Utility Model Content
[0003] To address the shortcomings of the aforementioned technologies, this utility model provides a multifunctional composite potted planter.
[0004] To solve the above technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is: a multifunctional composite potted planter, including a main pot, and the potted planter also includes an outer cover;
[0005] The heat insulation cylinder is fixed inside the outer cover and together with the outer cover covers the outside of the main basin;
[0006] A ventilation channel is formed between the heat insulation cylinder and the outer cover. The bottom of the ventilation channel has an air inlet and the top has an air outlet.
[0007] Preferably, the bottom of the main basin extends downwards to form basin feet.
[0008] Preferably, the basin foot has a basin bottom protrusion, and a cross-shaped ventilation recess 9 is formed between the basin bottom protrusions.
[0009] Preferably, ventilation holes are provided at both the bottom protrusion and the ventilation groove.
[0010] Preferably, the end opening of the venting groove is a venting notch at the lower edge of the basin foot.
[0011] Preferably, the outer surface of the heat insulation cylinder has multiple spaced protrusions, and the ventilation channels are located between adjacent protrusions.
[0012] Preferably, the top of the main basin is folded outward to form a basin rim, and the air outlet is located below the basin rim.
[0013] Preferably, the potted planter is also equipped with a water storage tray.
[0014] This utility model discloses a multifunctional composite potted planter, which is equipped with a heat insulation cylinder and a ventilation channel. When the outer cover is heated by the sun, the hot air in the ventilation channel rises and is discharged, thus carrying away the heat from the inner wall of the outer cover. In addition, the heat insulation cylinder prevents the temperature of the substrate in the main pot from rising excessively, preventing the pot and soil from overheating and scorching the roots due to strong direct sunlight. This ensures the safe summering of potted plants (such as peonies) and is very beneficial for the explosive growth of fine roots in autumn. At the same time, the heat insulation cylinder also provides good insulation in winter, making it less likely for the roots of potted plants to freeze. It has a double protection effect, thus providing strong protection for potted plants with well-developed root systems. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0020] Example 1
[0021] This embodiment discloses a multifunctional composite potted planter, the structure of which is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, it mainly consists of three parts: the main basin 1, the heat insulation cylinder 2, and the outer cover 3.
[0022] Among them, the main pot 1, as the main structure of the potted flower pot, follows the traditional single-layer plastic flower pot structure.
[0023] A heat insulation cylinder 2 and an outer cover 3 are installed on the outside of the main basin 1, with the heat insulation cylinder 2 sandwiched between the main basin 1 and the outer cover 3.
[0024] The outer cover 3 can be made of plastic material. To fit the conical cylindrical structure of the main basin 1, both the top and bottom ends are open. The outer cover 3 serves as the outermost layer for protection and decoration.
[0025] For insulation cylinder 2, it needs to have excellent thermal insulation performance and can be made of high-density, airtight foam plastic material, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the heat insulation cylinder 2 has a certain thickness to ensure heat insulation. In addition, multiple spaced protrusions 21 are formed on the outer surface of the heat insulation cylinder 2 to create a ventilation channel 8 between the outer cover 3 and the heat insulation cylinder 2.
[0026] From the perspective of simplifying the process and transportation and storage, as a preferred option, the heat insulation cylinder 2 can be made into a semi-circular shape, with two symmetrical semi-circular cylinders installed inside the outer cover 3, and then the heat insulation cylinder 2 and the outer cover 3 together are placed over the outside of the main basin 1.
[0027] Because the material of the heat insulation cylinder 2 has a certain elasticity, the heat insulation cylinder 2 and the outer cover 3 are pushed upward together into the outside of the main basin 1. By using the interference fit, the main basin 1, the heat insulation cylinder 2 and the outer cover 3 can be tightly bound together.
[0028] To improve the reliability of the combination and tightening of the three components, adhesive can be applied to appropriate locations (such as contact surfaces) to strengthen the fixation through bonding.
[0029] After the main pot 1, heat insulation cylinder 2, and outer cover 3 are assembled into the new type of potted flower pot, as follows: Figure 2 As shown, a ventilation channel 8 is formed between the heat insulation cylinder 2 and the outer cover 3. Based on the setting of the protruding strips 21 on the heat insulation cylinder 2, a ventilation channel 8 is formed between every two adjacent protruding strips 21.
[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, the bottom of the ventilation channel 8 has an air inlet 5 and the top has an air outlet 4. The air outlet 4 is hidden below the basin rim 11 formed by the outward folding of the top of the main basin 1.
[0031] Thus, the air inlet 5, ventilation channel 8, and air outlet 4 together form a heat dissipation channel. In the hot summer environment, when the outer cover 3 is heated by the sun, the hot air in the ventilation channel 8 rises, and external air flows into the ventilation channel 8 from the air inlet 5 of the outer cover, accelerating the flow of hot air out from the air outlet 4 at the top of the pot rim, thereby quickly carrying away the heat from the inner wall of the outer cover 3. At the same time, with the help of the heat insulation cylinder 2, the temperature of the substrate in the main pot 1 does not rise. Therefore, potted plants (such as peonies) can safely survive the summer, which is very beneficial to the explosive growth of fine roots in potted plants in autumn.
[0032] Furthermore, in the cold winter environment, thanks to the insulation cylinder 2, the foam plastic insulation cylinder can play a good role in heat preservation, making it less likely for the roots of potted plants to be damaged by freezing.
[0033] Therefore, the multifunctional composite potted planter disclosed in this embodiment is equipped with a heat insulation cylinder structure and forms a ventilation channel. After the outer cover is heated by the sun, the ventilation channel allows the evaporating hot air to flow out quickly. At the same time, combined with the protection of the heat insulation cylinder, the temperature of the substrate in the main pot 1 is prevented from rising excessively, preventing the pot and potting soil from overheating and scorching the roots due to strong direct sunlight, thus helping the potted plants to safely survive the summer. On the other hand, the heat insulation cylinder can also achieve a heat preservation effect in winter, effectively reducing the probability of root frost damage. Therefore, the potted planter of this embodiment has a double protection function, which can effectively protect the potted plants with well-developed root systems.
[0034] Implementation 2
[0035] This embodiment discloses a multifunctional composite potted planter. Based on the structure disclosed in Embodiment 1, the bottom of the main pot 1 extends downward with a foot 6.
[0036] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the basin foot 6 has a basin bottom protrusion 61. Typically, there is a 2 cm gap between the bottom of the main basin 1 and the lower edge (ground) of the basin foot 6.
[0037] During the forming process of the basin bottom protrusion 61, a cross-shaped ventilation groove 9 is formed between the basin bottom protrusion 61, and the openings at both ends of the ventilation groove 9 serve as ventilation gaps 7 at the lower edge of the basin foot 6.
[0038] Meanwhile, ventilation holes 10 are provided at both the bottom protrusion 61 and the ventilation groove 9, so that the bottom of the basin is covered with small round holes for ventilation.
[0039] The ventilation holes 10 allow this potted planter to be "grounded," enabling the cultivation of potted plants. During mass cultivation, it can be placed on the ground, allowing ground moisture to slowly evaporate into the pot through the ventilation holes 10, creating suitable humidity and a cooling effect on the substrate. Furthermore, watering is generally unnecessary, saving labor and avoiding damage from overwatering. Especially in autumn and winter, after leaf fall, water evaporation is significantly reduced; excessive substrate moisture hinders the regeneration of fine roots and can easily lead to root rot. Water can be sprinkled on the ground when it is too dry.
[0040] In addition, it should be noted that if you are using this potted planter to grow plants on a windowsill or plant stand, you can add a water storage tray at the bottom of the pot and pour water directly into the tray to allow it to slowly transcribe upwards.
[0041] In summary, the multifunctional composite potted planter disclosed in this utility model has excellent heat insulation properties. On the one hand, it can prevent the pot and soil from overheating and scorching the roots due to strong direct sunlight, helping potted plants (such as peonies) to safely survive the summer and promoting explosive root growth in autumn. On the other hand, it can reduce the probability of root frost damage in winter. Furthermore, this potted planter also has the ability to cultivate potted plants in a "grounded" manner, which improves the applicability of this potted planter.
[0042] The above embodiments are not intended to limit the present utility model, nor is the present utility model limited to the examples given above. Any changes, modifications, additions or substitutions made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technical solution of the present utility model are also within the protection scope of the present utility model.
