Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of flower pots, and in particular to a planting plug with a height-adjustable structure. Background Technology

[0002] Plants have varying water requirements at different growth stages. Adjusting the distance between the pot and the water tray can dynamically balance the plant's root water needs and aeration, preventing soil moisture imbalances caused by a fixed distance, which can negatively impact plant health. Currently, some plant pots on the market use a screw and nut type height adjustment structure to adjust the distance between the pot and the tray. For example, the liftable transplantable ceramic flower pot disclosed in Chinese utility model patent CN219679323U uses a threaded rod connected to a threaded tube on the tray to adjust the distance between the flower pot and the bottom water tray.

[0003] However, this type of height adjustment structure using screws and nuts has certain shortcomings. In actual operation, users need to rotate and adjust the nuts on both sides simultaneously, which is cumbersome, time-consuming, and inefficient. Moreover, if the nuts on both sides are not adjusted in sync, the flowerpot may tilt, and the screw may also get stuck, reducing the ease of use. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an implant plug with a height-adjustable structure. This invention achieves adjustment of the distance between the water-collecting base and the movable plate through a rotating, locking, multi-position height adjustment structure, featuring a simple structure and convenient and quick adjustment.

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model: A planting plug with a height-adjustable structure includes a water-collecting base and a movable basin. The movable basin is disposed inside the base. The water-collecting base has a pair of adjusting protrusions on both sides. The adjusting protrusions have longitudinal grooves communicating with the internal space of the base. The sides of the adjusting protrusions have multiple side grooves communicating with the longitudinal grooves. The sides of the water-collecting base have slots communicating with the side grooves. The sides of the movable basin have a retaining shaft that fits into the retaining grooves. The end of the retaining shaft has a round block that can pass through the longitudinal grooves and side grooves. The movable basin is provided with a support component for supporting the soil clods of plant roots.

[0006] In the above-mentioned planting plug with height adjustment structure, the chassis includes a main body, the lower part of the main body has a bottom plate, the bottom plate has a central disc, and a guide groove is formed between the central disc and the bottom plate.

[0007] In the aforementioned planting plug with height adjustment structure, the outer side of the bottom of the plate has a water outlet pipe that communicates with the guide groove, and the end of the water outlet pipe is provided with a plug for sealing the pipe opening.

[0008] In the aforementioned implant plug with a height-adjustable structure, the movable disc has handles on both sides of its opening for easy lifting.

[0009] In the aforementioned implant plug with height adjustment structure, the support assembly includes a support ring body disposed within a movable disc, and the side of the support ring body has multiple fixed side supports that are fixed to the inner wall of the movable disc.

[0010] In the aforementioned implant plug with height adjustment structure, the supporting ring body is composed of a bottom ring, a pressure ring, and a supporting mesh, with the supporting mesh disposed between the bottom ring and the pressure ring.

[0011] In the aforementioned implant plug with height adjustment structure, the bottom ring has a first stepped portion, the lower part of the pressure ring has a second stepped portion that fits into the first stepped portion, and the edge of the supporting net fits into the first and second stepped portions.

[0012] In the aforementioned planting plug with a height-adjustable structure, the support net is provided with a straw container for placing nutrient soil.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0014] 1. In this utility model, the soil clods around the plant roots are placed on the supporting component, and the movable tray is placed inside the water-collecting tray. During the seedling stage, the plant's root system is relatively fragile and its metabolism is slow. At this stage, it is necessary to increase the distance between the bottom of the movable tray and the water-collecting tray. By rotating the movable tray, the locking shaft slides out of the locking groove, and the round block enters the longitudinal groove through the side groove. The movable tray is lifted, and the round block reaches the higher-level side groove. Then, the round block passes through the side groove, and the locking shaft enters the locking groove. If the plant requires more water during its growth period, it is necessary to reduce the distance between the bottom of the movable tray and the water-collecting tray by using the same method as described above. This utility model adopts a rotating locking multi-level height adjustment structure. By rotating the movable tray, the round block at the end of the locking shaft moves in the longitudinal groove and side groove and locks into the corresponding locking groove of different side grooves. This allows for quick adjustment of the distance between the water-collecting tray and the movable tray, simplifying the operation steps, improving adjustment efficiency, and saving adjustment time.

[0015] 2. The drainage channel in the water-collecting chassis can collect excess water. The drain pipe is connected to the drainage channel, which can promptly drain excess water accumulated in the chassis and prevent excessive water accumulation. If water remains for a long time, it is easy for bacteria, fungi and other microorganisms to grow.

[0016] 3. The support net is set between the bottom ring and the pressure ring. This structural design creates a certain space between the soil and the water-collecting base, promotes air circulation, enhances the aeration of plant roots, and avoids oxygen deficiency caused by the soil being in a closed state for a long time, which would affect root respiration and growth.

Detailed Implementation

[0024] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, but this should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0025] Example: A planting plug with a height-adjustable structure, including a water-collecting base 1 and a movable basin 2, as shown in the attached diagram. Figure 1 As shown, both the water-collecting tray 1 and the movable pot 2 are made of high-strength engineering plastic. This material has good corrosion resistance, resisting the erosion of water and fertilizer during daily watering and extending the life of the flowerpot; it also has a certain degree of toughness and strength, able to withstand external forces during adjustment and the pressure from plant growth, and is not easily deformed or broken. The movable tray is set inside the base. The water-collecting tray 1 has a pair of adjustment protrusions 3 on both sides. The adjustment protrusions and the movable tray are an integral structure. The adjustment protrusions 3 have a longitudinal groove 4 that communicates with the internal space of the base. The sides of the adjustment protrusions 3 have multiple side grooves 5 that communicate with the longitudinal grooves 4; the sides of the water-collecting tray 1 have slots 6 that communicate with the side grooves 5; the sides of the movable pot 2 have a retaining pin 7 that fits into the slots 6, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 2As shown, the slot provides stable positioning for the card shaft. The end of the card shaft 7 has a circular block 8 that can pass through the longitudinal groove 4 and the side groove 5; the longitudinal groove is used for the circular block to pass through when the height of the movable plate is adjusted. The chassis includes a main body 10, the lower part of which has a plate bottom 11, and a central disc 12 inside the plate bottom 11. A guide groove 13 is formed between the central disc 12 and the plate bottom 11, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 3 As shown, when watering plants, some of the water flows into the water collection tray and then into the drainage channel. The outer side of the bottom 11 of the tray has a water outlet pipe 14 that communicates with the drainage channel 13. The end of the water outlet pipe 14 is equipped with a plug 15 for sealing the pipe opening. The water outlet pipe is connected to the drainage channel, which can drain excess water accumulated in the tray in time to avoid excessive water accumulation. If water stagnates for a long time, it is easy to breed bacteria, fungi and other microorganisms. When there is a lot of water, the plug can be pulled out to drain the water. The movable tray has handles 16 on both sides of the opening for easy lifting. When adjusting the distance between the water collection tray and the movable tray, the handles provide a force point for the rotation and up and down movement of the movable tray. By holding the handles, the user can more accurately control the rotation angle and movement range of the movable tray, so that the round block at the end of the locking shaft can move smoothly in the longitudinal groove and the side groove and lock into the locking slot. The handle 16 is made of non-slip rubber. The rubber surface has good friction. When adjusting the distance between the water collection tray and the movable tray, the user can more accurately control the rotation angle and movement range of the movable tray by holding the handle. This allows the round block at the end of the locking shaft to move smoothly in the longitudinal groove and side groove and lock into the slot. The non-slip design also prevents the flower pot from slipping and falling when carrying it.

[0026] The movable pot 2 is equipped with a support assembly 9 for supporting the soil clods around the plant roots. The support assembly 9 includes a support ring 17 disposed within the movable pot. The side of the support ring 17 has multiple fixed side supports 18 that are fixed to the inner wall of the movable pot. The support ring 17 is composed of a bottom ring 19, a pressure ring 20, and a support net 21, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 4As shown, the support net 21 is positioned between the bottom ring 19 and the pressure ring 20. The support ring in the support assembly provides stable support for the soil clods around the plant roots, preventing the soil clods from becoming loose and broken due to shaking or squeezing during flowerpot handling, height adjustment, or daily maintenance, thus preventing damage to the plant roots. The support net, positioned between the bottom ring and the pressure ring, creates a space between the soil and the water collection tray, promoting air circulation and enhancing the aeration of the plant roots. This prevents oxygen deficiency caused by prolonged confinement of the soil, which can affect root respiration and growth. Simultaneously, excess water can flow smoothly into the water collection tray through the gaps in the support net, preventing waterlogging and further ensuring the health of the plant roots and maintaining the water balance required for plant growth. The bottom ring 19 has a first stepped portion 22, and the lower part of the pressure ring 20 has a second stepped portion 23 that fits into the first stepped portion 22. The edge of the support net 21 is fitted to the first stepped portion 22 and the second stepped portion 23, as shown in the attached diagram. Figure 5 As shown, the first stepped portion on the bottom ring matches the second stepped portion below the pressure ring, providing a precise positioning structure for the installation of the support net and enhancing its stability. The bottom ring 19 and pressure ring 20 are made of lightweight aluminum alloy, which is easy to handle and install, while also possessing high strength and corrosion resistance, providing stable support for the soil clods around plant roots. The support net 21 is equipped with a straw container 24 for holding nutrient soil, as shown in the attached diagram. Figure 6 As shown, this straw container is made by crushing and pressing straw into shape. Nutrient soil can be placed inside the cavity formed within it. The straw contains nutrients that support plant root growth, promoting the reuse of straw and meeting the requirements of sustainable development in modern society. If the plant in the pot needs to be transplanted, the entire straw container can be removed and buried in the soil. Through microbial degradation under natural conditions, it will eventually be transformed into organic matter, improving the soil structure.

[0027] The working principle of this invention is as follows: At different stages of plant growth, the needs for water and air permeability vary. The distance between the water-collecting base 1 and the movable tray can be adjusted by rotating the multi-level height adjustment structure. When it is necessary to increase the distance between the bottom 11 of the movable tray and the water-collecting base 1 (such as during the seedling stage), the movable tray is rotated, causing the locking shaft 7 to slide out of the locking groove 6. The round block 8 at the end of the locking shaft 7 enters the longitudinal groove 4 through the side groove 5. At this time, the movable tray can be lifted upwards, moving the round block 8 to the higher-level side groove 5. Then, the round block 8 passes through the side groove 5, and the locking shaft 7 re-enters the corresponding locking groove 6, completing the height increase. Conversely, when it is necessary to reduce the distance during the plant's growth period, the same operation method is used to move the round block 8 to the corresponding locking groove 6 of the lower-level side groove 5, lowering the movable tray. This quickly and conveniently meets the plant's needs for space and water at different growth stages.

[0028] The above embodiments merely illustrate the implementation of this utility model, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. Furthermore, in these embodiments, "up," "down," "left," "right," "front," and "back" represent relative positions only, not absolute positions.
