Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vases, specifically a vase that is easy to change the water in. Background Technology
[0002] Vases are important containers for holding flowers and beautifying the environment. With the improvement of living standards, vases have not only become practical utensils, but also an indispensable element in home decoration.
[0003] Traditional vase designs often focus on appearance, material selection, and structural stability to meet basic needs for displaying flowers and decoration. However, in actual use, changing the water in the vase is always a key concern for users. Flowers need regular water changes to prevent bacterial growth and root rot caused by water quality deterioration, thus extending the flowers' freshness and maintaining their ornamental value. The traditional water-changing process typically involves the following steps: first, removing the flowers from the vase; then, emptying the old water; next, cleaning the inside of the vase to remove limescale or impurities; and finally, refilling with fresh water and repositioning the flowers. This process is rather cumbersome.
[0004] With the expansion of the flower consumption market and users' increasing focus on maintenance efficiency, vases that combine practicality and convenience are gradually emerging. For example, the Chinese authorized patent (CN 221242390 U, a ceramic vase for easy water changing) includes a bottle body with an inner bottle inserted inside. The outer wall of the inner bottle has multiple water-permeable holes. A bottleneck is fixedly connected to the top of the inner bottle. Multiple positioning grooves are provided on the top of the outer wall of the inner bottle. Multiple positioning pins are fixedly connected to the top of the inner circumference of the bottle body, and the positioning pins are inserted into the positioning grooves. A drain pipe is fixedly inserted to the bottom of one side of the bottle body. A retaining ring is fixedly connected to the other end of the drain pipe. A rotating tube is engaged with the outer wall of the retaining ring, and the rotating tube is rotatably sleeved with one end of the drain pipe. A sealing ring is provided between the rotating tube and the drain pipe. Multiple anti-slip protrusions are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the bottleneck. This utility model allows flowers to be inserted into the inner bottle. When changing the water, the inner bottle and flowers are removed together from the bottle body, and then the water can be changed immediately without having to remove the bouquet separately from the ceramic vase, thus avoiding damage to the bouquet.
[0005] While the aforementioned existing technology can change the water without affecting the bouquet, the inner bottle is removed from the water and placed on the table. Since there is water on the outer surface of the inner bottle, the table surface in contact with it will also be wet. In addition, the vase itself is generally heavy for decorative purposes, and with the water inside, the weight is considerable when moving it to change the water, making it quite inconvenient. Utility Model Content
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a vase that is easy to change the water in, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, such as water flowing from the outer surface of the inner bottle to the table surface in contact with it, and the large weight when moving and changing the water, which makes it inconvenient to change the water.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a vase that facilitates water changing, comprising an outer decorative unit, the outer decorative unit comprising a decorative bottle body, the lower end of the decorative bottle body being provided with a lower support portion, the inner surface of the lower support portion being provided with a first internal thread; an inner water storage unit is fitted to the lower end of the outer decorative unit, the inner water storage unit comprising a water storage bottle body, the lower end of the water storage bottle body being provided with an outer widening ring, the outer widening ring being fixed with a first external thread, the outer decorative unit and the inner water storage unit being connected by the threaded connection relationship of the first internal thread and the first external thread, a lower tray being fixed to the lower end of the water storage bottle body, the lower support portion fitting against the end face of the lower tray, the water storage bottle body forming a water storage cavity inside; an inner flower arrangement unit is fitted to the upper end of the outer decorative unit, the inner flower arrangement unit comprising a flower arrangement bottle body, the lower end of the flower arrangement bottle body extending into the water storage cavity, the surface of the part of the flower arrangement bottle body located inside the water storage cavity being provided with a plurality of water inlet holes in a circular array.
[0008] Preferably, a drain hose is installed at the lower end of the rear end of the water storage bottle, and a limit block is fixed at the upper end of the rear end of the water storage bottle, with the drain hose being inserted into the limit block.

[0013] Preferably, external decorative handrails are fixed on both sides of the exterior of the decorative bottle.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0015] (1) In this utility model, the cooperation between the lower support and the first internal thread makes it easier to connect and separate the outer decorative unit and the inner water storage unit. When changing the water, only the inner water storage unit that supports the water needs to be moved. The extravagant decoration of the outer decorative unit does not increase its own weight too much, making it easier to change the water. When changing the water, the inner flower arrangement unit and the outer decorative unit remain connected, and the lower support set at the lower end of the decorative bottle provides support. The inner flower arrangement unit does not directly contact the table, which solves the problem that the water on the outer surface of the inner bottle will flow to the table that it contacts, and the weight is large when moving and changing the water, making it inconvenient to change the water.
[0016] (2) In this utility model, the design of the drain hose allows the operator to drain the old water without tilting or carrying the entire vase. The old water can be drained simply by pulling the drain hose, which greatly reduces the labor intensity when changing the water. The limiting block effectively fixes the drain hose, preventing it from shaking or getting tangled when not in use, and preventing the loss of internal water due to the tilting of the drain hose during normal use.
[0017] (3) In this utility model, the upper limit ring and the second internal thread ensure a stable connection between the inner flower arrangement unit and the outer decorative unit, preventing the inner flower arrangement unit from shaking or falling off during use, and providing a stable display environment for the flowers. At the same time, when it is necessary to cut the stems of the bouquet to extend its freshness, the user can rotate the inner flower arrangement unit with their hand at the protective groove position and use the thread relationship between the second external thread and the second internal thread to remove the inner flower arrangement unit. It is not necessary to move the entire vase to the cutting position, which facilitates the flower maintenance process. Attached Figure Description

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0025] Please see Figures 1-5 One embodiment of this utility model is a vase that is easy to change water, which mainly includes an outer decorative unit 1, an inner water storage unit 2, and an inner flower arrangement unit 3.
[0026] (1) Exterior decoration unit 1
[0027] The outer decorative unit 1 includes a decorative bottle body 11. A lower support portion 12 is provided at the lower end of the decorative bottle body 11, and a first internal thread 13 is formed on the inner surface of the lower support portion 12. A connecting neck 14 is provided at the upper end of the decorative bottle body 11, and an upper limit ring 15 is provided at the upper end of the connecting neck 14. A second internal thread 16 is formed on the upper upper surface of both the upper limit ring 15 and the connecting neck 14. External decorative handles 17 are fixed to both sides of the decorative bottle body 11, providing a convenient gripping position for the user. When it is necessary to change the water, the user can hold the external decorative handles 17 and rotate the outer decorative unit 1, utilizing the thread relationship between the first internal thread 13 and other components to separate it from the inner water storage unit 2.
[0028] The design of the outer decorative armrest 17 greatly facilitates user operation; the cooperation between the lower support part 12 and the first internal thread 13 makes the connection and separation of the outer decorative unit 1 and the inner water storage unit 2 easier.
[0029] (2) Internal water storage unit 2
[0030] The inner water storage unit 2 includes a water storage bottle body 21. An outer widening ring 22 is provided at the lower outer end of the water storage bottle body 21. A first external thread 23 is fixed to the outer widening ring 22. The outer decorative unit 1 and the inner water storage unit 2 are connected by a threaded connection between the first internal thread 13 and the first external thread 23. A lower tray 24 is fixed to the lower end of the water storage bottle body 21, and the lower support part 12 fits against the end face of the lower tray 24. A water storage cavity 29 is formed inside the water storage bottle body 21. A drain hose 27 is installed at the lower rear end of the water storage bottle body 21. The drain hose 27 is a metal hose with sufficient strength to prevent it from falling or tilting and causing water loss; alternatively, the drain hose 27 can be modified to combine a hose and a rigid pipe, with the hose only located at the bend, allowing the structure to move upwards and downwards to drain water. A limiting block 28 is fixed to the upper rear end of the water storage bottle body 21, and the drain hose 27 is secured inside the limiting block 28. The lower support plate 25 is fixed in the center of the lower tray 24, and the inner handles 26 are fixed on both sides of the water storage bottle 21. The inner handles 26 make it easier and more convenient to move the inner water storage unit 2, and reduce the risk of it falling due to slipping during the handling process.
[0031] When changing the water, after separating the outer decorative unit 1 from the inner water storage unit 2 via the threads, the inner water storage unit 2 can be moved to the water changing tank. Pull the drain hose 27 outwards so that its opening moves to the lower end of the water storage bottle 21, and the water can be smoothly discharged through the drain hose 27. After discharge, the drain hose 27 is re-secured in the limiting block 28 to prevent the drain hose 27 from shaking and affecting use. After filling the water storage cavity 29 with water, the inner water storage unit 2 can be easily moved back to the tabletop via the inner handle 26 and reconnected and fixed to the outer decorative unit 1 via the threads.
[0032] (3) Inner floral arrangement unit 3
[0033] The inner flower arrangement unit 3 includes a vase body 31, the lower end of which extends into a water storage cavity 29. A series of water inlet holes 32 are arranged in a ring array on the surface of the portion of the vase body 31 inside the water storage cavity 29. This ring array ensures that water can enter the water storage cavity 29 from all directions and evenly, providing sufficient and uniform moisture to the roots of the bouquet and effectively extending the freshness of the flowers. An outer limiting ring 33 is fixed to the middle of the vase body 31. The precise positioning of the outer limiting ring 33 ensures the correct installation position of the inner flower arrangement unit 3 and the outer decorative unit 1, preventing the inner flower arrangement unit 3 from being inserted too deeply or too shallowly. A second external thread 34 is fixed to the lower end of the outer limiting ring 33 on the outside of the vase body 31. The inner flower arrangement unit 3 and the outer decorative unit 1 are connected through the threaded connection of the second external thread 34 and the second internal thread 16. The vase body 31 has protective grooves 35 along the upper end of the outer limiting ring 33. The design of the protective grooves 35 greatly increases the friction when the user rotates the inner flower arrangement unit 3, making the operation easier and effectively preventing the inner flower arrangement unit 3 from being unable to be removed smoothly due to hand slippage. The uppermost part of the vase body 31 is integrally connected to the outer decorative opening 36. The outer decorative opening 36 enhances the overall structural strength of the vase and adds a unique decorative element to the vase, making the vase more artistic and aesthetically pleasing while fulfilling its practical function. The vase body 31 forms a flower arrangement cavity 37 inside.
[0034] When it is necessary to trim the stems of the bouquet to extend its shelf life, the user rotates the inner flower arrangement unit 3 with their hand positioned at the protective groove 35, using the thread relationship between the second external thread 34 and the second internal thread 16 to remove the inner flower arrangement unit 3. Then, the inner flower arrangement unit 3 and its contents are moved to a sink or garbage collection location, the bouquet is removed, and the stems are trimmed one by one. The water inlet 32 allows water in the water storage chamber 29 to evenly permeate into the flower arrangement chamber 37, providing sufficient moisture to the bouquet.
[0035] During actual installation and use, please follow these steps:
[0036] When assembling the vase, first place the inner water storage unit 2 in a suitable position, ensuring that the lower support plate 25 is in stable contact with the placement surface. Then, holding the outer decorative handle 17 of the outer decorative unit 1, align the first internal thread 13 of the outer decorative unit 1 with the first external thread 23 of the inner water storage unit 2, and slowly rotate the outer decorative unit 1 to ensure a tight connection between the two through the threads, until the lower support 12 and the end face of the lower tray 24 are completely in contact. During this process, the cooperation between the lower support 12 and the lower tray 24 provides stable support for the overall structure, ensuring that the vase is placed securely after connection. Through this threaded connection method, the connection between the outer decorative unit 1 and the inner water storage unit 2 is tight and accurate.
[0037] Next, align the second external thread 34 of the inner flower arrangement unit 3 with the upper limit ring 15 of the outer decorative unit 1 and the second internal thread 16 on the inner surface of the connecting neck 14. Hold the protective groove 35 at the upper end of the outer limit ring 33 of the inner flower arrangement unit 3 and slowly rotate the inner flower arrangement unit 3 to fix it to the outer decorative unit 1 through threaded connection. The outer limit ring 33 plays a precise limiting role during the connection process, ensuring that the inner flower arrangement unit 3 is inserted into the appropriate position, providing a stable display space for the flowers and helping to improve the display effect of the flowers.
[0038] When the water needs to be changed, the user holds the outer decorative armrest 17 and slowly rotates the outer decorative unit 1. Utilizing the thread relationship between the first internal thread 13 and the first external thread 23, the inner water storage unit 2 is separated from the outer decorative unit 1. At this time, the lower support part 12 continues to support the overall structure, ensuring a smooth separation process. The stable support provided by the lower support part 12 ensures that the inner flower arrangement unit 3 does not directly contact the tabletop after the inner water storage unit 2 is separated.
[0039] After moving upwards and removing the outer decorative unit 1 and the inner flower arrangement unit 3, move the inner water storage unit 2 to the water changing pool via the inner handles 26 on both sides of the water storage bottle 21. Upon reaching the water changing pool, pull the drain hose 27 outwards, causing the nozzle of the drain hose 27 to move to the lower end of the water storage bottle 21, allowing water to drain smoothly through the drain hose 27. The drain hose 27 makes the drainage process smoother, quickly draining the old water from the water storage chamber 29. After drainage is complete, re-lock the drain hose 27 into the limiting block 28, which secures the drain hose 27.
[0040] After filling the water storage chamber 29 with new water, the inner water storage unit 2 is moved back to the tabletop via the inner armrest 26. Then, following the assembly steps described above, the outer decorative unit 1 and the inner water storage unit 2 are reconnected and secured with threads.
[0041] When it is necessary to trim the stems of the bouquet to extend its shelf life, the user's hand is positioned at the protective groove 35, and the inner flower arrangement unit 3 is rotated. The inner flower arrangement unit 3 is then removed using the thread relationship between the second external thread 34 and the second internal thread 16. The inner flower arrangement unit 3 and its contents are moved to a sink or garbage collection location, the bouquet is removed, and the stems are trimmed one by one.
[0042] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
