Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of integrated device technology, specifically, it relates to an integrated device for negative oxygen ion potted plant base. Background Technology
[0002] In modern life, people are paying increasing attention to indoor environmental quality. Potted plants, as a common indoor decoration and air purification method, are widely loved. Integrated planter bases, as an important accessory for potted plants, not only support the plants but also influence their growth environment and indoor air quality to a certain extent. Traditional integrated planter bases have relatively simple functions, mainly focusing on providing stable support. Their structure is usually quite simple, merely a basic base for holding potted plants. This traditional base has revealed many drawbacks in practical use.
[0003] First, regarding air circulation, traditional potted plant stands lack specialized airflow guidance and optimization designs. Indoor airflow around potted plants is often naturally disordered, preventing timely air renewal around the plant leaves and affecting photosynthesis and respiration. Plants absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen through photosynthesis, while respiration requires oxygen and releases carbon dioxide. Good air circulation ensures a sufficient supply of carbon dioxide around the plant while promptly removing waste gases produced during respiration. Poor air circulation reduces plant growth efficiency, and prolonged exposure to such an environment can negatively impact plant health, potentially leading to yellowing leaves and slow growth. Second, traditional potted plant stands have limited ability to regulate indoor air quality. As people's demands for air quality increase, relying solely on the plant's own purification capabilities is insufficient. Indoor air often contains various pollutants, such as dust, formaldehyde, and benzene. These pollutants may originate from building materials, furniture, and appliances. Prolonged exposure to such a polluted environment poses a serious threat to human health, causing respiratory diseases and allergic reactions. Traditional potted plant stands cannot actively generate air-purifying substances, such as negative oxygen ions. Negative oxygen ions, known as "air vitamins," possess multiple benefits such as sterilization, dust reduction, and air purification, effectively improving indoor air quality and greatly benefiting human health. Furthermore, traditional planter stands are inconvenient in terms of installation and use. Generally, their installation methods are relatively fixed, making it difficult to flexibly adjust them according to different usage scenarios and user needs. For example, in some space-constrained locations, it may be necessary to install potted plants on walls or other special locations, but traditional stands lack such adjustable installation functions, limiting the placement and usage range of the potted plants. Moreover, the connection between traditional stands and potted plants is not optimized, potentially leading to unstable placement of the pots, causing them to tip over and damaging the plants or other items. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides an integrated device for negative oxygen ion potted plant base, which solves the shortcomings of traditional integrated potted plant base devices that have single function and inconvenient installation, and realizes multi-functional integration and performance optimization.
[0005] This utility model is implemented as follows:
[0006] This utility model provides an integrated device for negative oxygen ion potted plant base, comprising:
[0007] An annular base has a stepped mounting cavity at the top and anti-slip support feet at the bottom. The mounting cavity includes an upper flow guiding chamber and a lower fixing chamber.
[0008] The negative ion generating unit is fixedly installed in the lower fixed chamber and includes a boost module, a discharge needle assembly and an isolation cover;
[0009] An airflow guiding component is detachably connected to the upper airflow guiding chamber via a snap-fit mechanism, and a spiral guide plate is provided on the inner wall of the airflow guiding component;
[0010] A composite breathable panel is embedded in the top of the base, including an upper oblique through-hole layer and a lower flow-guiding protrusion layer;
[0011] An adjustable mounting bracket, hinged to the back of the base, includes a telescopic support rod and a fixed base plate.
[0012] Based on the above technical solution, the integrated device for negative ion potted plant base of this utility model can be further improved as follows:
[0013] The spiral guide vane is an involute curved surface blade, with its root smoothly connected to the bottom of the airflow guiding component, and its end curving upward to form a guide lip; the cross-sectional area of the flow channel formed between adjacent spiral guide vanes gradually decreases from bottom to top, and the spiral guide vane has an inclination angle of 25°-35°.
[0014] "Involute curved surface blade" refers to a blade whose three-dimensional curved surface shape unfolds according to the geometric law of involute curves. Its core characteristics include:
[0015] Root connection method: The connection between the bottom of the blade and the bottom of the airflow guide assembly adopts a continuous and smooth transition (without right angles or abrupt edges), forming a rounded structure optimized for hydrodynamics.
[0016] Mid-section curved surface features: The blade body has a spiral involute curved surface, similar to the involute development of gear teeth, but also has an upward curvature along the axial direction (height direction).
[0017] End guide lip: The top of the blade curls and extends in the direction of airflow, forming a forked or upturned structure similar to a "fish tail", which is used to guide the airflow to converge towards the center of the composite breathable panel.
[0018] Furthermore, the isolation cover is composed of two coaxial cylindrical mesh layers, with the inner layer mesh having smaller openings than the outer layer mesh; the needle body of the discharge needle assembly extends radially, with the needle tip pointing towards the inner layer of the isolation cover without contacting it.
[0019] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned improved scheme are: the double-layer mesh structure blocks 99% of the risk of external contact, while avoiding interference from the electric field by the metal flower pot.
[0020] Furthermore, the adjustable mounting bracket includes a fixed base, a telescopic rod, and a mounting plate;
[0021] The fixed base is a U-shaped groove structure, and its two side walls are hinged to the ear plate on the back of the base through a rotating shaft; the telescopic rod is composed of an outer tube and an inner rod sleeved together, and the bottom of the outer tube is fixedly connected to the center of the fixed base plate; the mounting plate is a fan-shaped plate, and its arc side is vertically fixedly connected to the top of the inner rod.
[0022] The rotating shaft is equipped with torsion springs at both ends, which makes the mounting bracket tend to flip outward; the bottom of the outer tube is bolted to the fixing seat through a flange, and a waterproof sealing ring is provided in the center of the flange; the top of the inner rod is equipped with a mounting plate connecting seat, which is fixed to the mounting plate by four circumferentially distributed screws.
[0023] Furthermore, the airflow guiding component is provided with an L-shaped elastic claw at its bottom;
[0024] The top of the lower fixing chamber is provided with an annular groove that mates with the claw, and the end of the L-shaped elastic claw is provided with an anti-detachment hook.
[0025] Furthermore, the upper oblique through-hole of the composite breathable panel is a trumpet-shaped opening, and the lower conical flow guiding structure is an array of upward-protruding regular hexagonal pyramids.
[0026] The center line of the through hole and the center line of the cone are offset and staggered.
[0027] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned improved scheme are as follows: the staggered arrangement of oblique holes and cones reduces dust deposition by 60%; the hexagonal pyramid structure reduces the diffusion angle from 90° to 60%.
[0028] Furthermore, the bottom of the stepped mounting cavity of the annular base is provided with a wave-shaped elastic buffer pad;
[0029] The edge of the buffer pad extends upward to form a skirt structure that covers the side wall of the lower fixed chamber.
[0030] Furthermore, the boost module is connected to the discharge needle assembly via a high-voltage wire covered with a metal shielding layer;
[0031] The conductor runs along a pre-set groove on the wall of the lower fixed chamber and passes through the ceramic insulating sleeve of the isolation cover.
[0032] Furthermore, the anti-slip support foot is provided with an anti-slip support structure, which includes a hemispherical rubber pad and an annular drainage groove surrounding the pad.
[0033] The top of the rubber pad is provided with a positioning post that fits into the bottom of the base.
[0034] Furthermore, it also includes a power supply control module, integrated into a recess in the side wall of the base, including a removable battery compartment, a USB-C interface, and a main control circuit board.
[0035] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects of the negative ion potted plant base integrated device provided by this utility model are:
[0036] Optimizing air circulation and plant growth environment: This invention features a stepped mounting cavity at the top of a ring-shaped base, with an upper funnel-shaped airflow chamber and a lower cylindrical fixing chamber. Combined with a conical airflow guide component and a composite breathable panel, this creates a unique airflow guidance system. The spirally distributed arc-shaped guide plates on the inner wall of the conical airflow guide component allow incoming air to rise in a spiral pattern along a specific path. This spiral airflow provides more even contact with the leaves of potted plants, promoting effective air exchange. Compared to traditional, disordered natural airflow, this significantly increases the air renewal rate around the plants, providing more favorable conditions for photosynthesis and respiration.
[0037] The composite breathable panel's upper slanted perforation structure and lower conical airflow guide structure further optimize airflow direction. The slanted perforations guide air in at a certain angle, preventing direct airflow impact on plant roots and thus avoiding damage. The lower conical airflow guide structure further disperses the airflow, allowing it to be more evenly distributed around the potted plant, creating a more stable and suitable microenvironment for plant growth.
[0038] Significantly Improves Indoor Air Quality: The negative ion generating unit is a major highlight of this invention. A voltage booster module increases the voltage, providing sufficient energy to the matrix-arranged discharge needle array, enabling it to generate a large number of negative oxygen ions within the annular ionization chamber surrounded by a double-layered shield. These negative oxygen ions are highly reactive and can interact with pollutants such as dust, bacteria, and viruses in the air. They can adsorb dust particles, increasing their weight and causing them to settle to the ground, thus effectively reducing the dust content in the air. Simultaneously, negative oxygen ions can also disrupt the cell membrane structure of bacteria and viruses, rendering them inactive and achieving a sterilization and disinfection effect.
[0039] Enhancing installation and ease of use: The adjustable mounting bracket design allows this device to adapt to various usage scenarios. The U-shaped fixing base is hinged to the back of the base via a pivot, and the outer tube of the sleeve-type telescopic rod is threaded to the fixing base. The inner rod end has a fan-shaped mounting plate, and the telescopic rod's length is fixed by a press-lock mechanism. Users can easily adjust the angle and length of the mounting bracket according to their actual needs, installing potted plants on walls, desktop edges, or other special locations. For example, in some office spaces with limited space, users can fix potted plants to the wall using the mounting bracket, saving space while also serving a decorative and air-purifying purpose. This flexible installation method greatly expands the range of applications for potted plants and improves the user experience. Attached Figure Description

Fault feedback link: When a short circuit / over-temperature is detected, the main control chip (STM32) immediately cuts off the MOSFET and triggers the LED to flash red.
[0079] Specifically, the principle of this utility model is as follows:
[0080] Airflow guidance principle:
[0081] The airflow guiding system of this invention is mainly based on the principles of fluid mechanics. When air enters the stepped mounting cavity at the top of the annular base, it first enters the upper funnel-shaped guide chamber. The funnel-shaped structure enables the air to accelerate and diffuse upon entry. Next, the air enters the lower cylindrical fixed chamber and passes through the conical airflow guiding component to the area below the composite breathable panel.
[0082] The spirally distributed arc-shaped guide plates on the inner wall of the conical airflow guide assembly are key components for achieving spiral airflow upwards. According to the principle of spiral flow in fluid mechanics, when fluid flows along a spiral path, it forms a stable spiral motion under the action of centrifugal force and friction. In this device, air rises along the spiral path under the guidance of the arc-shaped guide plates. The cross-sectional area of the flow channel formed between adjacent guide plates gradually decreases from bottom to top, which causes the air velocity to gradually increase during the upward process, thus forming a high-speed spiral airflow. This spiral airflow can better contact the leaves of potted plants, promoting air exchange and heat transfer.
[0083] The principle of negative oxygen ion generation:
[0084] The negative ion generating unit operates based on the corona discharge phenomenon. A boost module increases the input low voltage to a sufficiently high voltage, typically several kilovolts or even higher. This high voltage is applied to a matrix of discharge needles. When the voltage reaches a certain level, the air surrounding the discharge needles is ionized, forming a plasma region. Within this region, electrons in air molecules are excited and combine with other molecules to form negative ions.
[0085] The double-layer isolation shield design plays a crucial role in the generation of negative oxygen ions. The outer mesh tube of the shield is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the lower fixed chamber, while the inner mesh tube forms an annular ionization cavity with the discharge needle assembly. The outer mesh tube prevents external impurities from entering the ionization cavity, protecting both the inner mesh tube and the discharge needle assembly. The inner mesh tube, in turn, confines the electric field generated by the discharge needle assembly, making the ionization process more stable and efficient. Simultaneously, the smaller mesh size of the inner layer compared to the outer layer prevents negative ions from diffusing too quickly to the outside after generation, instead allowing them to accumulate within the annular ionization cavity, increasing the concentration of negative ions, which then diffuse evenly to the outside of the device with the airflow.
[0086] Installation and connection principles:
[0087] The adjustable mounting bracket is designed based on mechanical connections and angle adjustment principles. The U-shaped mounting base is hinged to the back of the base via a pivot, allowing the mounting bracket to rotate around the pivot at a certain angle to adapt to different installation positions and angle requirements. The outer tube of the sleeve-type telescopic rod is threaded to the mounting base, and the inner rod end has a fan-shaped mounting plate. The length of the telescopic rod can be adjusted by rotating the threaded connection between the outer tube and the mounting base. The push-button locking mechanism, through an internal spring and latch structure, secures the telescopic rod in the desired position after the length is adjusted, ensuring the stability of the mounting bracket during use.
