[0023] To further illustrate the various embodiments, the present invention provides accompanying drawings, which are part of the disclosure of the present invention. These drawings are mainly used to illustrate the embodiments and can be used in conjunction with the relevant descriptions in the specification to explain the operating principles of the embodiments. With reference to these contents, those skilled in the art should be able to understand other possible implementation methods and the advantages of the present invention. The components in the figures are not drawn to scale, and similar component symbols are usually used to represent similar components.

[0024] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a self-watering flowerpot with water level markings is provided.

[0025] The present invention will now be further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, such as... Figure 1-6 As shown, a self-watering flowerpot with a water level marker according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a main basin body 1 and a water receiving tray 2. It also includes a cylindrical water receiving hole post 3, a float 4, a water indicator 5, and an observation hole 6. The water receiving tray 2 is connected to the bottom of the main basin body 1, and the main basin body 1 and the water receiving tray 2 are supported by the cylindrical water receiving hole post 3. The observation hole 6 is located on the side of the main basin body 1. The float 4 is connected to the water indicator 5, which is disposed within the observation hole 6. The water indicator 5 includes a frame 51, a shaft connection part 52, and a float 53. The shaft connection part 52 is fixedly disposed on both sides of the float 53 and connected to the opening of the frame 51. The float 4 is connected to the other end of the frame 51, away from the float 53. As the water level in the water receiving tray 2 gradually rises, the float 4 rises accordingly due to buoyancy. Since the float 4 is connected to the frame 51 of the water indicator 5, the rise of the float 4 will cause the frame 51 to move, which in turn will cause the shaft connection 52 and the float ball 53 to change position or angle within the observation hole 6. The user can intuitively understand the water level in the water receiving tray 2 by observing the state of the float ball 53 within the observation hole 6.

[0026] In one embodiment, the bottom end of the main basin 1 is provided with a groove 11 and a connecting hole 12 for connecting the cylindrical water receiving hole pile 3. When water is poured into the main basin 1, excess water flows through the groove 11 at the bottom end of the main basin 1 to the water receiving tray 2.

[0027] In one embodiment, the water receiving tray 2 is provided with limiting posts 21, anti-slip blocks 22, and a connecting port 23. The connecting port 23 fits into the top of the main pot 1, achieving a tight connection between the two. The limiting posts 21 are distributed on the bottom surface of the water receiving tray 2 and connected to the cylindrical water receiving hole post 3, serving a positioning and fixing function. An array of anti-slip blocks 22 are arranged on the bottom edge of the water receiving tray 2. This increases the stability of the flowerpot when placed and prevents it from sliding.

[0028] In one embodiment, at least three sets of the cylindrical water-receiving hole piles 3 are provided, and the three sets of cylindrical water-receiving hole piles 3 are triangularly supported on the water-receiving tray 2. Water-absorbing holes 31 are provided on the outer side of the cylindrical water-receiving hole piles 3. These holes are used to absorb water from the water-receiving tray 2, providing a continuous water supply to the plants in the main pot 1.

[0029] In one embodiment, the observation hole 6 is further provided with a limiting hole for the connecting shaft connection part 52, thereby enabling the water display 5 to be connected to the main basin 1.

[0030] In one embodiment, the float 53 is a hemispherical component. The display state of the float 53 within the observation hole 6 also changes accordingly, allowing the user to determine whether water needs to be added.

[0031] Working Principle: When water is poured into the main pot 1, excess water flows through the perforated groove 11 at the bottom of the main pot 1 to the drip tray 2. The water level in the drip tray 2 gradually rises, and the float 4 rises accordingly due to buoyancy. Since the float 4 is connected to the frame 51 of the water indicator 5, the rise of the float 4 will drive the frame 51 to move, thereby causing the shaft connection 52 and the float ball 53 to change position or angle within the observation hole 6. The user can intuitively understand the water level in the drip tray 2 by observing the state of the float ball 53 within the observation hole 6. When the water level rises to a certain level, and the display state of the float ball 53 in the observation hole 6 reaches the preset mark, the user is prompted to stop watering to avoid damage to the plant due to overwatering. When the water in the drip tray 2 is absorbed by the plant or evaporates naturally, and the water level drops, the float 4 descends, and the display state of the float ball 53 in the observation hole 6 changes accordingly, allowing the user to determine whether water needs to be added. Meanwhile, the water absorption holes 31 on the outside of the cylindrical water receiving hole pile 3 can slowly absorb water and transport it to the main pot 1 when there is water in the water receiving tray 2, providing a continuous water supply for the plants.

For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal connection of two components or the interaction between two components. Unless otherwise explicitly limited, those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0033] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
