TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to horticultural equipment technical field especially, relate to a kind of combinable planting flowerpot. BACKGROUND

[0002] As an important component of plant planting appliances in the field of horticulture, the combinable planting flowerpot cannot be ignored in terms of function and value. In horticultural practice, flowerpots not only provide soil containment space and root support for plant growth, but also play a crucial role in building diverse horticultural scenes. Whether it is to create a delicate indoor greenery corner or to build a large outdoor landscape planting area, the rational design and application of flowerpots can effectively improve space utilization and create a rich and visually coordinated planting layout. For example, in a limited balcony or courtyard space, by skillfully matching flowerpots, a variety of flowers, herbs or small fruits and vegetables can be planted to create a small ecological garden with diverse species; in a park or commercial greening project, flexible configuration of flowerpots can form eye-catching landscape nodes, enhancing the artistic sense and functionality of the space. In addition, with the continuous development of modern horticultural concepts, users increasingly demand portability, modular assembly capability and aesthetic appeal of flowerpots to meet diverse planting needs and dynamic horticultural design.

[0003] However, there are some deficiencies in the use of existing flowerpots: 1. The structure is single and fixed, lacking a design that can be assembled or disassembled, resulting in a large space occupation during transportation and storage, and the number or layout cannot be flexibly adjusted according to the actual needs of the planting scene; 2. The drainage system design is not perfect, usually relying only on simple drainage holes, which are easily clogged by soil or impurities, causing water accumulation and plant root rot, affecting growth and health; 3. The connection method of existing flowerpots is simple, and the stability is insufficient during assembly, making it difficult to meet the needs of large-scale or complex layout. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a combinable planting flowerpot that solves the above problems by modular design, optimized drainage system and stable connection structure, providing a more flexible and efficient solution for modern horticulture. Therefore, a combinable planting flowerpot is needed to solve the above problems. SUMMARY

[0004] The utility model aims at solving the shortcomings in the prior art and provides a combinable planting flowerpot.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a combinable planting flower pot, comprising a pot body and a base component. The base component is installed at the bottom of the pot body and is snap-fitted to the pot body. The base component includes a bottom plate. Openings are provided on both sides of the top of the bottom plate, as well as on the front and back. The four openings, when viewed from above, can form a cross-shaped flow channel. A support block is provided in the middle of the top of the bottom plate. Drainage holes are provided on both sides of the base component, as well as on the front and back, and the drainage holes are all located in the middle of the openings.

[0006] Preferably, the base plate is square in shape, and corner pads are provided at the four corners of the top of the base plate, the corner pads being L-shaped.

[0007] Preferably, the surface of the corner pads at the top of the base component is provided with positioning slots, and the positioning slots are L-shaped.

[0008] When assembling the base components, as shown in the figure, place the required base components together and then snap the top of the edge fitting. After the frame is installed, the four adjacent frames will form a cross shape, with a square area reserved between the cross-shaped frames. Then, place the snap cap in the square area, and ensure that the snaps in the four external directions snap into the ends of the frames in the four directions respectively. It should be noted that after the snap cap and the frame are snapped into place, the snap head on the top of the frame will fit into the top of the snap cap.

[0009] Preferably, each of the adjacent base components is fitted with a sleeve frame, and the sleeve frame is U-shaped.

[0010] Preferably, both sides of the top of the sleeve frame are fitted with locking heads, and one side of the top of the sleeve frame is fitted with a locking cap.

[0011] Preferably, the bottom of the card cap has slots on both sides, as well as on the front and back, and the slots and the sleeve frame are compatible with each other and interlock.

[0012] Preferably, the discharge port is initially sealed, and a plug cap is threaded into the internal part of the discharge port.

[0013] Beneficial effects

[0014] In this invention, the modular design of the modular planting pot significantly improves the flexibility and efficiency of horticultural applications. The pot body and base components are connected by snap-fit ​​joints, and the assembly structure, using a U-shaped frame and clips, allows for unlimited expansion and splicing according to available space. With connecting straight pipes at the four sides of the base, they can be joined together to form a single piece. All interconnected bases are connected by a single opening to drain water, ensuring the assembled base forms a large water trough. The U-shaped frame and clips allow water to drain down from the top when assembled. As long as one drainage hole is unobstructed and the water level does not exceed the U-shaped frame and clips, the entire base will not leak. This achieves a leak-proof design even with unlimited interconnection and splicing of the base. The pot can be completely disassembled for transportation and storage, greatly reducing space occupation and transportation costs. The disassembled base components and assembly parts can be compactly stacked, improving storage space utilization. In practical use, users can freely increase or decrease the number of base components according to planting needs and space conditions. Through the precise snap-fit ​​of the frame and clips, a variety of layouts can be quickly constructed to meet the needs of various scenarios, from small balcony gardens to large-scale landscape planting.

[0015] This utility model's drainage system design optimizes the management of the plant growth environment. The cross-shaped flow channel in the base component effectively collects and guides seepage water to four sets of discharge holes, achieving controlled drainage with threaded plugs to prevent root rot caused by water accumulation. The discharge holes are located on the side of the base component, facilitating connection to external drainage pipes or collection containers, supporting centralized drainage management, and are particularly suitable for large-scale planting scenarios. Compared to the simple drainage hole design of traditional flower pots that are prone to clogging, this solution, through structural optimization of the cross-shaped flow channel and support block, reduces the risk of soil clogging, ensures smooth drainage, and improves the healthy growth rate of plants.

After the sleeve frame 206 is installed, the four sets of adjacent sleeve frames 206 will form a cross shape, and a square area will be reserved between the cross-shaped sleeve frames 206. Then, the snap cap 205 is placed in the square area, while ensuring that the snap openings 208 in the four directions are snapped onto the ends of the sleeve frames 206 in the four directions respectively. It should be noted that after the snap cap 205 and the sleeve frame 206 are snapped onto, the snap head 207 on the top of the snap frame 206 will be attached to the top of the snap cap 205.

[0030] Each adjacent base component 2 has a sleeve 206 snapped onto its top at the contact point. The sleeve 206 is L-shaped. In practical applications, the base components 2 can be assembled by fitting them together. The sleeve 206 will fit over the edges of the two adjacent sets of base components 2 to limit the snapping.

[0031] Both sides of the top of the sleeve 206 are fitted with locking heads 207, and the top of the sleeve 206 is fitted with a locking cap 205.

[0032] The cap 205 has slots 208 on both sides of its bottom, as well as on its front and back. The slots 208 and the sleeve frame 206 are compatible and interlock. The cap 205 can connect four adjacent sets of base components 2.

Specific Implementation Example 2:

[0036] Reference Figures 1-5 The modular planting pot is designed for flexible assembly and efficient water management, suitable for various planting scenarios. It consists of a pot body 1 and a base component 2, connected by snap-fit ​​mechanisms. The base component can be modularly assembled to form a customizable planting system, featuring drainage, structural stability, and a secure connection. The following are its detailed working principles and supplementary details.

[0037] Components and Structure:

[0038] The pot 1 is a container for holding soil and plants, and it fits tightly with the base component 2. Each pot corresponds to one base component to ensure a one-to-one fit. The base component 2 includes: a square base plate 201, which provides structural support; a cross-shaped flow channel formed by four openings 209 on the top of the base plate 201, which guides water flow to the four drain holes 3; a central support block 204, which enhances structural stability and supports the pot 1; L-shaped corner pads 202 at the four corners of the top of the base plate 201, which raise the pot to promote ventilation and prevent water accumulation; L-shaped positioning slots 203 on the surface of the corner pads, which are used to align adjacent base components during assembly; and four sets of drain holes 3 on the sides, front, and back of the base component, which correspond to the cross-shaped flow channel and are initially sealed by threaded plugs 4, which can be unscrewed when draining. The assembly components include: a U-shaped frame 206, which snaps into the edge of the adjacent base components; locking heads 207 on both sides of the top of the frame 206, which cooperate with the locking caps 205; and locking caps 205, which have locking slots 208 on both sides of the bottom, as well as on the front and back, which are adapted to the frame 206 and connect four sets of adjacent base components 2.

[0039] Working principle:

[0040] Single-unit use:

[0041] The pot body 1 is attached to the base component 2 via a snap-fit ​​connection. Corner pads 202 elevate the bottom of the pot body to ensure ventilation and prevent water accumulation. A cross-shaped drainage channel formed within the base component 2 collects seepage water from the pot body and guides it to four sets of drainage holes 3 via support blocks 204. The drainage holes 3 are initially sealed with caps 4; when drainage is needed, the caps are unscrewed to drain excess water and prevent root rot. The square design of the base plate 201 and the corner pads provide stability, ensuring that the pot body is not easily tipped over during use.

[0042] Modular assembly:

[0043] The base components 2 can be assembled to form a multi-pot planting system. During assembly, multiple base components 2 are placed side-by-side, with adjacent edges secured by snap-fit ​​frames 206. The U-shaped frame fits over the edges of two sets of base components 2, and positioning slots 203 assist in alignment. After installation, four sets of adjacent frames form a cross shape, with a square area reserved in the middle. The snap-fit ​​cap 205 is placed in this area, and its snap-fit ​​opening 208 engages with the ends of the frames in four directions. After engagement, the snap-fit ​​head 207 of the frame fits snugly against the top of the snap-fit ​​cap, ensuring a secure connection. Each base component is compatible with one pot; the number of bottom pots determines the number of base components required. For example, a 2×2 layout requires 4 base components, 4 frames, and 1 snap-fit ​​cap.

[0044] Drainage and Management:

[0045] In the assembled state, the cross-shaped flow channels of each base component 2 operate independently, collecting seepage water from the corresponding pot and guiding it to the drain hole 3. The plug cap 4 of the drain hole 3 can be individually controlled, allowing users to selectively drain water according to the plant's needs and avoid cross-contamination of water. The drain holes are located on the side of the base component, facilitating connection to external drainage pipes or collection containers for centralized drainage management.

[0046] Furthermore, in subsequent practical applications, a universal interface can be designed on the support block 204 for installing modular devices such as temperature and humidity sensors and automatic irrigation devices. Users can insert temperature and humidity sensors into the interface to monitor the temperature and humidity data of the soil in the flowerpot in real time, or connect an automatic irrigation device to automatically water the soil when the soil moisture is detected to be lower than the set value, thus realizing intelligent planting.

[0047] In summary:

[0048] 1. Modular planting pots significantly enhance the flexibility and practicality of planting through their modular design and efficient water management. The system centers on the pot body and base components, using snap-fit ​​connections to ensure stability when used individually. The base component's cross-shaped flow channel and controllable drainage holes ensure effective water management and prevent root rot. The base component's square base plate, L-shaped corner pads, and L-shaped positioning slots provide structural support and alignment convenience for both individual use and assembly. Suitable for various scenarios such as home gardening and balcony planting, the entire modular planting pot allows for unlimited expansion and splicing according to space size. With connecting straight pipes at the four sides of the base, they can be spliced ​​together to form a single unit. All interconnected base plates can be drained through a single opening, ensuring the assembled base plate forms a large water trough. U-shaped frames and clips allow water to drain down when assembled. As long as one drainage hole is unobstructed and the water level does not exceed the U-shaped frame and clips, the entire base plate will not leak, achieving a leak-proof design even with unlimited interconnection and splicing of the base plates.

[0049] 2. Modular Assembly Function: The ingenious interlocking design of the U-shaped frame and caps enables rapid implementation of multi-pot layouts. The locking heads and snap-fit ​​joints of the frame and caps ensure a secure connection between adjacent base components. The resulting cross-shaped frame and square area layout are rationally designed and support flexible expansion. The drainage system operates independently, allowing users to precisely control water according to plant needs. The threaded plug design of the drain holes facilitates operation, and combined with optional external drainage pipe connections, it meets centralized drainage requirements, providing an efficient solution for large-scale applications such as commercial landscaping.
