Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to plant cultivation containers, specifically to a flowerpot with an automatic watering function. 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 their plants and the features of the pot itself. They can be categorized into many types based on the materials used in their construction. Flowerpots are basin-shaped containers used in private gardens and villas, and are widely used in landscaping and gardening projects.

[0003] Everyday flower pots are simple in structure and have a monotonous appearance. Especially with soil-grown flower pots, busy owners often neglect to water the plants, causing them to wither. Designing a flower pot that automatically stores water, waters, and fertilizes has always been a problem. Utility Model Content

[0004] According to one aspect of the present invention, a flowerpot with an automatic watering function is provided, comprising:

[0005] The basin has an inner cavity and a partition cavity, with the partition cavity located at the edge of the inner cavity;

[0006] A water distribution ring is located at the upper end of the partition cavity, and several water sprayers are arranged in a circular array on the inner side of the water distribution ring.

[0007] A water pump device is located at the upper edge of the basin. One end of the water pump device is connected to the partition cavity, and the other end of the water pump device is connected to several water sprayers.

[0008] The inner side of the water distribution ring has a circumferential array of several water outlet holes. The water sprayer is located on one side of the water outlet hole, and the other side of the water outlet hole is equipped with an arc-shaped guide plate. The spraying end of the water sprayer points towards the guide plate.

[0009] This invention provides a flowerpot capable of automatically watering plants. The flowerpot includes a pot body, a water distribution ring, and a water pump device. The pot body is positioned on the water distribution ring, which is located at the upper end of the pot body. Water is supplied to the plants inside the cavity through the water outlets on the water distribution ring, under the action of the sprayer and the deflector plate. Furthermore, fertilization can be achieved by periodically adding water-soluble fertilizer into the cavity. This invention features a simple structure and convenient operation, making it suitable for widespread promotion and application.

[0010] In some embodiments, a first mounting box is provided at the upper edge of the basin, and a portion of the water pump device is disposed within the first mounting box.

[0011] Therefore, the first mounting box is used to install the water pump unit.

[0012] In some embodiments, a second mounting box is provided on the outer edge of the water distribution ring, the first mounting box and the second mounting box are assembled together and communicate with each other; another part of the water pump device is located in the second mounting box.

[0013] Thus, the first mounting box and the second mounting box are combined to form the mounting cavity of the water pump device.

[0014] In some embodiments, the water pump device includes a water pump, a check valve, a power supply, and a control panel. The water pump is located in a first mounting box, the power supply is located in a second mounting box, and the control panel is located on the second mounting box and between the check valve and the power supply. The check valve is located in the second mounting box and is located on one side of the power supply.

[0015] One end of the water pump is connected to the diaphragm, and the other end of the water pump is connected to the sprayer through a one-way valve.

[0016] Therefore, the water pump device is composed of the above structure and is installed through the installation cavity formed by the first installation box and the second installation box. The water pump device is distributed and sealed in the installation cavity.

[0017] In some embodiments, the basin includes an outer wall, an inner wall, a bottom wall, and a top plate. The inner wall and the outer wall are distributed inside and outside the basin. The bottom wall is connected to the lower end of the outer wall and the inner wall. The top plate is located at the upper end of the outer wall and the inner wall. The cavity is located between the outer wall and the inner wall.

[0018] Thus, the basin is composed of the above-mentioned structure, and the water source can be stored in the compartment.

[0019] In some embodiments, the basin also includes a water inlet hopper located on one side edge of the outer wall, with a plug at the upper end of the water inlet hopper.

[0020] Thus, water is replenished into the compartment through the water inlet hopper.

[0021] In some implementations, a number of through holes are provided on the end face of the bottom wall.

[0022] Therefore, the through hole can remove excess water from the inner cavity and prevent water accumulation in the inner cavity.

[0023] In some implementations, the outer wall, inner wall, bottom wall, and water inlet hopper are integrally formed, and the top plate is detachable.

[0024] Therefore, the basin should have the above-mentioned features.

[0025] In some embodiments, the water distribution ring includes a ring body and a water distribution pipe, with the water distribution pipe located on the outer side of the ring body and the water outlet formed on the inner side of the ring body.

[0026] Therefore, several pipes can be installed inside the water distribution pipe, so that the water sprayer can be connected to the water pump device. Attached Figure Description
