Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of indoor green plant maintenance technology, specifically to a flowerpot for indoor green plant maintenance. 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 producers and enthusiasts can choose flowerpots based on the characteristics and needs of their plants, as well as the features of the pot itself. Depending on the materials used in their construction, flowerpots can be categorized into many types.
[0003] For example, the announcement number "CN220326333U" discloses a flower pot for home green plant care. However, the flower pot cannot automatically water the plants during use. This means that when people need to go out for a period of time, the green plants at home will not be watered and are prone to withering and dying, which has certain drawbacks. Therefore, we propose a flower pot for indoor green plant care. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a flowerpot for indoor plant care, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a flowerpot for indoor green plant care, comprising a flowerpot body, wherein the flowerpot body is composed of an outer placement pot and an inner planting pot, and the placement pot is provided with an irrigation mechanism for automatic watering.
[0006] The irrigation mechanism includes:
[0007] Storage bottles are used to store clean water for irrigation.
[0008] Water pipes are used for irrigation;
[0009] The air tube is used to input gas into the storage bottle to control automatic watering.
[0010] Preferably, a fixing plate is fixed to the side of the pot, a support for stable placement is fixed to the bottom of the fixing plate, and a placement groove for placing a storage bottle is provided on the top of the fixing plate. With the support, the fixing plate can be supported after the storage bottle is placed on top of the fixing plate, so as to prevent the flower pot from tipping over.
[0011] Preferably, the storage bottle is placed in a placement slot at the top of the fixing plate. A water pipe and an air pipe penetrate the right side of the storage bottle, and the storage bottle is fixedly connected to the water pipe and air pipe. The water pipe and air pipe extend into the storage bottle, with the ends of the water pipe and air pipe away from the storage bottle extending into the inner side of the placement basin. The overall length of the air pipe is longer than the overall length of the water pipe, and the height of the connection between the air pipe and the storage bottle is higher than the connection between the water pipe and the storage bottle. A certain amount of water is first poured into the placement basin, so that the end of the air pipe extending into the basin is submerged in the water. As the water is continuously consumed, when the air pipe is exposed to the air, gas... The water enters the storage bottle through a tube. Under atmospheric pressure, the water stored in the storage bottle flows into the placement basin through a water pipe. When the water in the placement basin submerges the end of the tube within the basin, the tube is sealed by the water, preventing gas from entering the storage bottle. Consequently, the storage bottle can no longer water the plants, thus achieving automatic irrigation without manual intervention. This effectively prevents plants from dying when people are away for extended periods and no one is watering them. The storage bottle is made of transparent glass, and users only need to periodically check the water level and add water as needed, making it convenient to use.
[0012] Preferably, a placement rack is fixed to the inside of the placement pot, and the planting pot is placed on top of the placement rack. The placement pot and the planting pot can be separated, making it more convenient for users to clean the placement pot.
[0013] Preferably, the bottom of the planting pot has ventilation holes, and a sponge rod is provided at the bottom of the planting pot. The sponge rod penetrates through the planting pot and can be squeezed. The diameter of the sponge rod is slightly larger than the diameter of the through hole at the bottom of the planting pot for the sponge rod to pass through. Once inserted, the sponge rod is locked in place. When replacement is needed, the sponge rod can be pulled out with a certain amount of force. Utilizing the principle of capillary action, the sponge rod has many tiny pores inside, which act like capillaries. When one end of the sponge rod comes into contact with water, the water rises through these tiny pores under the action of capillary force. Because there is cohesive force between water molecules, and adhesive force between water molecules and the molecules of the sponge rod's wall material, the water moves upward along the pores of the sponge rod under the combined action of adhesion and cohesion, eventually reaching the soil in the planting pot.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a flowerpot for indoor plant care, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] 1. This indoor plant care pot, through its watering mechanism, first pours a certain amount of water into the pot, causing one end of the air tube to be inserted into the water. As the water is consumed, when the air tube is exposed to the air, gas can enter the storage bottle through the air tube. Under atmospheric pressure, the water stored in the storage bottle flows into the pot through the water pipe. When the water in the pot submerges the end of the air tube in the pot again, the air tube is sealed by the water, and gas can no longer enter the storage bottle through the air tube. Consequently, the storage bottle can no longer water the plants through the water pipe, thus achieving automatic watering without manual watering. This effectively prevents the plants from dying when people are away for extended periods and no one is watering them.
[0016] 2. This indoor plant care flowerpot features a detachable placement pot and planting pot, making it convenient for users to clean the placement pot. The storage bottle is made of transparent glass, allowing users to simply check the water level in the storage bottle periodically and add water as needed, making it easy to use.

[0023] like Figures 1-5 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a flower pot for indoor green plant maintenance, including a flower pot body, which consists of an outer placement pot 1 and an inner planting pot 2. The placement pot 1 is provided with an irrigation mechanism 3 for automatic watering, and the irrigation mechanism 3 includes a storage bottle 31, a water pipe 32 and an air pipe 33.
[0024] A fixing plate 4 is fixed to the side of the pot 1. A support 5 for stable placement is fixed to the bottom of the fixing plate 4. A placement slot 6 for placing the storage bottle 31 is opened on the top of the fixing plate 4. With the support 5, the fixing plate 4 can be supported after the storage bottle 31 is placed on the top of the fixing plate 4, so as to prevent the flower pot body from tipping over.
[0025] Storage bottle 31 is placed in the placement slot 6 on top of fixed plate 4. A water pipe 32 and an air pipe 33 penetrate the right side of storage bottle 31 and are fixedly connected to each other. The water pipe 32 and air pipe 33 extend into storage bottle 31, with the ends of the water pipe 32 and air pipe 33 extending into the inner side of placement basin 1. The overall length of air pipe 33 is longer than the overall length of water pipe 32, and the height of the connection between air pipe 33 and storage bottle 31 is higher than the connection between water pipe 32 and storage bottle 31. A certain amount of water is first poured into placement basin 1, causing the end of air pipe 33 extending into the water. As the water is continuously consumed, when air pipe 33 is exposed to air, the gas... The gas can enter the storage bottle 31 through the air tube 33. Under atmospheric pressure, the water stored in the storage bottle 31 flows into the placement basin 1 through the water pipe 32. When the water in the placement basin 1 submerges the end of the air tube 33 inside the placement basin 1, the air tube 33 is sealed by the water, and the gas can no longer enter the storage bottle 31 through the air tube 33. Consequently, the storage bottle 31 can no longer be watered through the water pipe 32, thus achieving automatic watering without the need for manual watering. This effectively avoids the phenomenon of plants withering and dying when people are away for a long time and no one waters them. The storage bottle 31 is a transparent glass bottle, and people only need to observe the water level in the storage bottle 31 regularly and add water as needed. It is convenient to use.
[0026] A placement rack 7 is fixed to the inside of the placement pot 1, and the planting pot 2 is placed on top of the placement rack 7. The placement pot 1 and the planting pot 2 can be separated, making it more convenient for users to clean the placement pot 1.
[0027] The bottom of the planting pot 2 has ventilation holes 8, and a sponge rod 9 is installed at the bottom of the planting pot 2. The sponge rod 9 penetrates the planting pot 2 and can be squeezed through. The diameter of the sponge rod 9 is slightly larger than the diameter of the through hole at the bottom of the planting pot 2 for the sponge rod 9 to pass through. Once inserted, the sponge rod 9 is locked in place. When it needs to be replaced, it can be pulled out with a certain amount of force. Utilizing the principle of capillary action, the sponge rod 9 has many tiny pores inside, which act like capillaries. When one end of the sponge rod 9 comes into contact with water, the water rises through these tiny pores under the action of capillary force. Because there is cohesive force between water molecules, and adhesive force between water molecules and the molecules of the sponge rod 9's wall material, the water moves upward along the pores of the sponge rod 9 under the combined action of adhesive and cohesive forces, eventually reaching the soil in the planting pot 2.
[0028] By filling the storage bottle 31 with water and then pouring a certain amount of water into the placement basin 1, the end of the air tube 33 extending into the placement basin 1 is submerged in the water. As the water is continuously consumed, when the air tube 33 is exposed to the air, gas can enter the storage bottle 31 through the air tube 33. Under the action of atmospheric pressure, the water stored in the storage bottle 31 flows into the placement basin 1 through the water pipe 32. When the water in the placement basin 1 submerges the end of the air tube 33 in the placement basin 1 again, the air tube 33 is sealed by the water, and gas can no longer enter the storage bottle 31 through the air tube 33. Consequently, the storage bottle 31 can no longer be watered through the water pipe 32, thus achieving automatic watering without manual watering. This effectively avoids the phenomenon of plants withering and dying when people are away for a long time and no one waters them. The storage bottle 31 is a transparent glass bottle, and people only need to observe the water level in the storage bottle 31 periodically and add water as needed, making it convenient to use.
[0029] The present invention has been described in detail above. However, modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, any modifications or improvements that do not depart from the spirit of the present invention are within the protection scope of the present invention.
