Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of flower pots, and in particular to a breathable flower pot for planting amaryllis that prevents root rot. Background Technology

[0002] A flowerpot is a container used for planting flowers. It is shaped like an inverted truncated cone or truncated pyramid with a wide mouth and a narrow base. Flowerpots come in various forms and sizes. Flower producers or enthusiasts can choose flowerpots according to the characteristics and needs of the flowers and the features of the flowerpot. Depending on the materials used, they can be divided into many types. Amaryllis, also known as the solitary hibiscus, is a perennial herbaceous plant of the Amaryllidaceae family. It is loved by flower lovers for its large and brightly colored flowers and has become an important commercial potted plant and cut flower. In the cultivation and management of amaryllis, the health of the bulb is the key factor that determines whether it can flower and grow normally.

[0003] Amaryllis bulbs are layered bulbs, rich in water and nutrients. However, their physiological characteristics make them highly susceptible to bulb and root rot due to waterlogging and poor ventilation. Although existing flower pots have drainage holes at the bottom, these holes are easily blocked by soil, hindering air circulation and causing moisture to accumulate in the pot. Under high temperature and humidity, the risk of root rot increases significantly. Therefore, we propose a breathable flower pot for planting amaryllis to prevent root rot and solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a breathable flowerpot for planting amaryllis that prevents root rot, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: A breathable flowerpot for planting amaryllis to prevent root rot includes a pot body and a pot base. The pot base is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the pot body. The outer surface of the pot body has ventilation holes arranged at equal intervals. The upper surface of the pot base has ventilation holes arranged at equal intervals. The pot body includes an outer pot body and an inner pot body. The outer pot body and the inner pot body are connected by connecting blocks arranged at equal intervals. A ventilation cavity is provided between the outer pot body and the inner pot body. The bottom surface of the outer pot body has drainage holes. The outer surface of the inner pot body has through holes arranged at equal intervals.

[0006] In a further embodiment, the inner basin is provided with a protective mesh plate inside, and the outer surface of the protective mesh plate is connected to the inner wall of the inner basin.

[0007] In a further embodiment, two sets of connecting buckles are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the basin, and a connecting rope is fixedly connected between each set of connecting buckles.

[0008] In a further embodiment, a drain head is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the basin seat, and a drain pipe is fixedly connected to one end of the drain head.

[0009] In a further embodiment, the inner wall of the basin is fixedly connected with equidistant support columns, each of which is located between two vent holes.

[0010] In a further embodiment, a base pad is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the basin.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: This device achieves a breakthrough in physical structure through the design of an outer pot, an inner pot, and a central ventilation cavity. The inner pot holds the soil and plant, and its perforations allow excess water to drain into the ventilation cavity. The outer pot serves to protect and collect water, which is then drained through the drainage holes at the bottom. This structure prevents the soil from being completely isolated from the outside air, ensuring the supply of oxygen needed for root respiration. At the same time, it effectively maintains suitable humidity inside the soil during watering intervals, achieving a perfect balance between water retention and aeration. Through the multiple combinations of ventilation holes, air vents, ventilation cavities, perforations, and drainage holes, a three-dimensional air circulation and water drainage system is constructed. This not only achieves conventional drainage at the bottom of the pot but also allows the pot walls and bottom to participate in air exchange, greatly enhancing the permeability of the root environment. It can quickly drain excess water and introduce fresh air, keeping the amaryllis bulbs in a dry and well-ventilated state, fundamentally and effectively preventing root rot caused by waterlogging and stuffiness.

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0020] Please see Figures 1-4, in the present utility model, a breathable flowerpot for cultivating Hippeastrum that prevents root rot includes a pot body 1 and a pot base 2. The bottom surface of the pot body 1 is fixedly connected to the pot base 2. The outer surface of the pot body 1 is provided with ventilation holes 3 arranged at equal distances. The upper surface of the pot base 2 is provided with air-permeable holes 5 arranged at equal distances. A protective net plate 14 is provided inside the inner pot body 102. The outer surface of the protective net plate 14 is connected to the inner wall of the inner pot body 102. The protective net plate 14 provided inside the inner pot body 102 can effectively isolate the soil, preventing the potting soil or roots from directly blocking the through holes 13 and the drainage holes 12 at the bottom of the inner pot body 102, ensuring the long-term, stable, and efficient operation of the entire drainage and ventilation system, reducing the maintenance requirements. Through the multiple combined design of the ventilation holes 3, the air-permeable holes 5, the ventilation cavity 10, the through holes 13, and the drainage holes 12, a three-dimensional air circulation and water drainage system is constructed. It not only realizes the conventional drainage at the bottom of the pot, but also enables the pot wall and the pot bottom to participate in air exchange, greatly enhancing the air permeability of the rhizosphere environment, quickly discharging excess water and introducing fresh air, keeping the Hippeastrum bulbs always dry and ventilated, and fundamentally effectively preventing the root rot problem caused by waterlogging and stuffiness.

[0021] The pot body 1 includes an outer pot body 101 and an inner pot body 102. The outer pot body 101 and the inner pot body 102 are connected by connecting blocks 103 arranged at equal distances. A ventilation cavity 10 is provided between the outer pot body 101 and the inner pot body 102. The bottom surface of the outer pot body 101 is provided with drainage holes 12. The outer surface of the inner pot body 102 is provided with through holes 13 arranged at equal distances. Through the design of the outer pot body 101, the inner pot body 102, and the intermediate ventilation cavity 10, a breakthrough in the physical structure is achieved. The inner pot body 102 bears the soil and the plants. The through holes 13 on it can drain the excess water to the ventilation cavity 10. The outer pot body 101 plays a role in protection and collection, and finally discharges the water through the drainage holes 12 at the bottom. This structure avoids the complete isolation of the potting soil from the external air, ensures the supply of oxygen required for root respiration, and can effectively maintain the appropriate humidity inside the soil during the watering interval, achieving a perfect balance between water retention and ventilation.

[0022] Two sets of connecting buckles 4 are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the pot body 1, and a connecting rope 9 is fixedly connected between each set of connecting buckles 4. A bottom pad 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the pot base 2. The design of the bottom pad 6 increases the stability of the flower pot, prevents slippage, and protects the placement surface from scratches. The connecting buckles 4 and connecting rope 9 facilitate users to move and hang decorations, increasing the practicality and convenience of the flower pot. A drain head 8 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the pot base 2, and a drain pipe 7 is fixedly connected to one end of the drain head 8. Through the design of the drain head 8 and drain pipe 7, excess water flowing out of the drain hole 12 can be controlled. The water is guided to a designated collection container, keeping the planting environment clean and dry, making it particularly suitable for indoor or balcony cultivation. The inner wall of the pot base 2 is fixedly connected with equally spaced support columns 11, each support column 11 located between two ventilation holes 5. The ventilation holes 5 and the internal support columns 11 on the pot base 2 further raise the distance between the bottom of the pot body 1 and the placement plane, forming a bottom air circulation layer. This avoids the problem of poor ventilation caused by the bottom of the pot directly contacting the tray or the ground. At the same time, the support columns 11 also enhance the structural strength of the pot base 2, making it more load-bearing.

[0023] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When in use, the flowerpot can be moved by the connecting rope 9 on the pot body 1. The flowerpot is placed in the usage position by the pot base 2. Amaryllis is planted in the inner pot body 102. The protective net plate 14 at the bottom of the inner pot body 102 can support the planting soil. When watering, the through hole 13 on the inner pot body 102 can drain excess water into the ventilation cavity 10. The outer pot body 101 plays a protective and collection role, and the water is finally drained through the drainage hole 12 at the bottom. Through the multiple combination design of ventilation hole 3, air vent 5, ventilation cavity 10, through hole 13 and drainage hole 12, a three-dimensional air circulation and water drainage system is constructed. It not only realizes the conventional drainage of the bottom of the pot, but also allows the pot wall and the bottom of the pot to participate in air exchange, which greatly enhances the permeability of the root environment. It can quickly drain excess water and introduce fresh air, keeping the amaryllis bulb dry and ventilated at all times.
