Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of watermelon potted plant cultivation, specifically to a watermelon potted plant cultivation device. Background Technology
[0002] Watermelon potted cultivation offers flexibility in terms of location. Watermelon seeds are sown in flowerpots for growth. Since watermelons are vine-like plants, some supports or trellises need to be set up in their growing area for the vines to climb.
[0003] When growing watermelons in pots, simple wooden or metal poles are usually inserted haphazardly into the soil. Watermelons are relatively heavy, and when they are nearing maturity, these poles can easily become overwhelmed by the weight, causing them to tilt or even collapse. In this case, the poles cannot effectively support the watermelon, which may slip to the ground or hit the edge of the pot, damaging the fragile watermelon. Therefore, a watermelon pot planting device is provided. Utility Model Content
[0004] I. Technical problems to be solved
[0005] The technical problem this invention aims to solve is that when growing watermelons in pots, the support structure directly inserted into the soil is not securely fixed. During the watermelon ripening stage, it easily loses its effective support, leading to watermelon damage.
[0006] II. Technical Solution
[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution provided by this utility model is: a watermelon potted plant planting device, including multiple support poles buried in the soil of the flower pot.
[0008] It also includes a base for supporting the support rods. The base is rotatably connected around its perimeter to a plurality of support rods that press tightly against the inner wall of the flowerpot at their bottom ends, thereby stabilizing the base and the support rods inside the flowerpot. The base is equipped with a retraction mechanism that causes the support rods to open and close and provides a locking effect for their position.
[0009] An adjustment component for adjusting the position of the support pole is installed between the base and the support pole.
[0010] Furthermore, the retraction mechanism includes a screw threaded onto the base, a handle connected to the top of the screw, a support plate rotatably connected to the screw extending below the base, and a guide rod rotatably connected between the edge of the support plate and the support rod.
[0011] Furthermore, the adjustment component includes multiple slide grooves evenly arranged on the base, with studs installed in the slide grooves. The bottom end of the stud is connected to a stop plate whose top surface fits against the base. A nut is threadedly connected to the stud above the slide groove. The support rod is hollow and is fixed to the top of the stud by a snap-fit mechanism.
[0012] Furthermore, the bottom of the support pole is bent.
[0013] Furthermore, hooks for easy hanging and fixing of ropes are evenly installed on the frame pole.
[0014] III. Beneficial Effects
[0015] The advantages of this invention compared to the prior art are as follows: Firstly, the device provides a base with a locking function. The support rods, which serve as the support structure, are installed on the base. The bottom ends of multiple evenly distributed support rods are pressed against the inner wall of the flowerpot, ensuring that the entire device, including the support rods, is relatively securely locked in the flowerpot. Even if the support rods bear excessive weight, they will not tilt. In addition, the base is equipped with an adjustment component that facilitates the adjustment of the support rod position. This, along with the numerous hooks on the support rods and the support rods with a wide range of opening and closing, provides greater flexibility and adaptability for the use of this device.

[0023] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0024] Example 1
[0025] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution provided by this utility model is: a watermelon potted planter, combined with an attached... Figure 1-3 Includes: multiple support poles 11 buried in the soil of the flowerpot, and a base 1 supporting the support poles 11, combined with... Figure 4 The frame pole 11 is evenly equipped with hooks 12 for easy hanging and fixing of ropes, and the bottom of the frame pole 11 is bent.
[0026] The base 1 is a disc frame of appropriate size. Its size should be moderate. If it is too large, it will cause too much obstruction to the top surface of the soil in the flower pot. If it is too small, it will be not conducive to the arrangement of the support rods 11. Therefore, the base 1 is placed in the flower pot, and the edge of the base 1 will not be close to the inner wall of the flower pot. In order to prevent the support rods 11 on the base 1 from being relatively concentrated near the center of the flower pot, the bottom of the support rods 11 is set into a bent shape, so that the part carrying the hook 12 extends a part towards the edge of the flower pot.
[0027] The hanging ropes tied between the support poles 11 can be tied to hooks 12 at both ends. This way, the hanging ropes will not slip down the support poles 11 after bearing the weight of the watermelon fruit. The support poles 11 and the hanging ropes tied to the support poles 11 together form a support structure, providing a climbing area for the watermelon vines as they grow.
[0028] Combined with appendix Figure 5-6 An adjustment component for adjusting the position of the support rod 11 is installed between the base 1 and the support rod 11. The adjustment component includes multiple sliding grooves 7 evenly arranged on the base 1. A stud 8 is installed in the sliding groove 7. The bottom end of the stud 8 is connected to a stop plate 9 whose top surface fits against the base 1. A nut 10 is threadedly connected to the stud 8 above the sliding groove 7. The support rod 11 is hollow and is fixed to the top of the stud 8 by a snap-fit method.
[0029] To improve the flexibility of the device, the watermelon planting support is reasonably arranged by moving the support rod 11 within the groove 7 of the base 1 according to the radius of the watermelon planting pot. The support rod 11 is installed on the stud 8 by a snap-fit method, which has flexible disassembly. The appropriate number of support rods 11 can be reasonably arranged for use according to the user's requirements. The stud 8 can move flexibly within the groove 7. After the position is determined, the stud 8 and the support rod 11 are fixed on the base 1 by rotating the matching nut 10 on the stud 8.
[0030] Example 2
[0031] Combined with appendix Figure 1-3 The base 1 is rotatably connected around its perimeter to a plurality of support rods 2 which are tightly abutted against the inner wall of the flowerpot at their bottom ends, thereby stabilizing the base 1 and the support rod 11 inside the flowerpot. The base 1 is equipped with a retraction mechanism that causes the support rods 2 to open and close and provides a locking effect for their position. The retraction mechanism includes a screw 3 threadedly connected to the base 1. A handle 4 is connected to the top of the screw 3. The screw 3 extends to the bottom of the base 1 and is rotatably connected to a support plate. A guide rod 6 is rotatably connected between the edge of the support plate and the support rod 2.
[0032] By rotating the screw 3 on the base 1, the screw 3 will move up and down on the base 1. After the support plate at the bottom of the screw 3 moves together with the screw 3, it will move the support rod 2 connected to the edge of the base 1 inward or outward through the guide rod 6, thereby changing its tilt state. When the bottom ends of each support rod 2 move outward synchronously until they hit the inner wall of the flowerpot, the device and the frame rod 11 can be tightly fastened together with the flowerpot for watermelon planting. Under the action of the threaded connection between the screw 3 and the screw hole of the base 1, locking is achieved. Thus, the watermelon planting support composed of the frame rod 11 and other parts can remain upright in the flowerpot after bearing a large weight, without tilting or collapsing.
[0033] In practical implementation, when this device is used during watermelon potted cultivation, it is first placed in a prepared flowerpot. Due to the internal structural design of the locking mechanism composed of the base 1 and support rod 2, the base 1 is always positioned on a horizontal surface inside the flowerpot. By holding the handle 4 on the base 1 and turning the screw 3, the support rod 2 moves synchronously. For flowerpots within a reasonable size range, regardless of size, the support rod 2, under the action of the guide rod 6, will eventually touch the side wall at the bottom of the flowerpot. The support rods 2 are relatively evenly distributed and tightly abut against the flowerpot, locking each other. The base 1 and the support rod 11 are then difficult to move inside the flowerpot. Move it easily, then adjust the support structure. Select the appropriate number of support rods 11 and insert them into the top of the studs 8 at the target positions. Move them within the grooves 7 to further select their positions in the flowerpot. After all adjustments are complete, tighten the nuts 10 on the studs 8 to fix this support rod 11. The remaining support rods 11 are arranged in the same way. Finally, bury an appropriate amount of soil in the flowerpot. The thickness of the soil depends on the requirements of watermelon potted planting and does not affect the use of the device during the watermelon growth stage. If you wish to attach some hanging ropes to the support, the two ends of the hanging ropes can be tied to the hooks 12 on the support rods 11.
[0034] The present invention and its embodiments have been described above. This description is not restrictive, and the accompanying drawings are only one embodiment of the present invention; the actual structure is not limited thereto. In conclusion, if those skilled in the art are inspired by this description and design similar structures and embodiments without departing from the inventive spirit of the present invention, such designs should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
