Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of flower pot technology, and in particular to a flower pot that can automatically water. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of plant pot care, automatic watering flower pots have become an important choice for busy people or plant care novices because they can simplify the care process. However, existing automatic watering flowerpots still have many unresolved problems in practical applications: most existing flowerpots lack effective water filtration and root isolation structures, causing water to accumulate at the bottom of the pot due to gravity, leading to waterlogging of plant roots and increased risk of root rot. Furthermore, the water collected at the bottom cannot be fully utilized, resulting in water waste. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop an automatic watering flowerpot that utilizes a flow regulating valve and drip nozzles in its automatic watering mechanism; a combination of a separating mesh and geotextile to filter excess water into the storage chamber while preventing plant roots from entering and causing root rot; and a self-suction return mechanism that uses capillary action to draw water from the storage chamber back to the potting soil via cotton thread or sponge strips, reducing water accumulation and improving water utilization. This would overcome the shortcomings of current applications and meet current needs. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a flowerpot that can automatically water, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] An automatically watering flowerpot includes a pot body, an automatic watering mechanism, potting soil, a soil moisture detector, a self-priming return mechanism, a separating net, and geotextile. A support ring is fixed to the lower half of the pot body. A separating net is supported on the upper side of the support ring. Geotextile is fixed on the upper side of the separating net. Potting soil is supported on the upper side of the geotextile. A water storage chamber is provided below the separating net within the pot body. The automatic watering mechanism includes a rigid pipe, a drip nozzle, a flow regulating valve, a flexible hose, and a quick-connect fitting. The rigid pipe is fixed to the upper end of the pot body. A drip nozzle pointing towards the inside of the pot body is connected to the right end of the rigid pipe. A flow regulating valve is installed on the rigid pipe. A flexible hose is connected to the left end of the rigid pipe. A quick-connect fitting is connected to the lower end of the flexible hose. The self-priming return mechanism includes a protective pipe and a self-priming strip. The protective pipe penetrates the potting soil, the separating net, and the geotextile. The self-priming strip penetrates the protective pipe. The lower end of the self-priming strip is inserted into the water storage chamber, and the upper end of the self-priming strip is in contact with the potting soil.

[0006] Preferably, the soil moisture detector is inserted into the cultivation soil.

[0007] Preferably, the self-absorbing strip is made of cotton thread or sponge.

[0008] Preferably, the basin is made of a transparent material.

[0009] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: When using this automatically watering flowerpot, plants are planted in the potting soil, the quick-connect fitting is connected to an external tap water pipe, and the soil moisture is detected by a soil moisture detector. Based on the soil moisture, the user adjusts the flow regulating valve to control the dripping speed of the nozzle, thus achieving automatic watering. At the same time, the geotextile can filter the water, allowing water to pass through the geotextile into the water storage chamber while preventing soil particles from passing through. In addition, the geotextile can also prevent plant roots from entering the water storage chamber, preventing root rot caused by prolonged soaking in water. Under the action of capillary action, the self-suction strip draws water from the water storage chamber and transports it upwards to the potting soil, thereby reducing water accumulation in the water storage chamber and improving water utilization. In summary, this utility model utilizes the flow regulating valve and drip nozzle of the automatic watering mechanism to automatically water plants. The combination of the partition net and geotextile not only filters excess water into the water storage chamber but also prevents plant roots from entering the water storage chamber, thus avoiding root rot caused by prolonged waterlogging. The self-suction return mechanism utilizes capillary action to draw water from the water storage chamber back into the cultivation soil through self-suction strips made of cotton thread or sponge, reducing water accumulation while improving water resource utilization.

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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0017] Specific implementation examples are given below.

[0018] See Figures 1-4 In this embodiment of the present invention, an automatically watering flowerpot includes a pot body 1, an automatic watering mechanism 2, potting soil 3, a soil moisture detector 4, a self-priming return mechanism 5, a partition net 6, and a geotextile 7. A support ring 101 is fixed to the lower half of the interior of the pot body 1. The partition net 6 is supported on the upper side of the support ring 101. The geotextile 7 is fixed to the upper side of the partition net 6. The potting soil 3 is supported on the upper side of the geotextile 7. The potting soil 3 is used for planting plants. A water storage cavity 102 is provided below the partition net 6 inside the pot body 1 to store excess water. The geotextile 7 filters water, allowing it to pass through into the water storage chamber 102 while preventing soil particles from passing through. Additionally, the geotextile 7 prevents plant roots from entering the water storage chamber 102, preventing root rot from prolonged soaking. The soil moisture detector 4 is inserted into the potting soil 3 to detect its moisture level. A person observes the readings on the soil moisture detector 4 to determine the moisture status of the potting soil 3. The pot body 1 is made of transparent material so that the internal conditions can be directly observed. The automatic watering mechanism 2... The system includes: a rigid pipe 201, a drip tip 202, a flow regulating valve 203, a flexible tube 204, and a quick-connect fitting 205. The rigid pipe 201 is fixed to the upper end of the basin 1. The right end of the rigid pipe 201 is connected to the drip tip 202, which points into the basin 1. The flow regulating valve 203 is installed on the rigid pipe 201. The left end of the rigid pipe 201 is connected to the flexible tube 204. The lower end of the flexible tube 204 is connected to the quick-connect fitting 205, which is connected to an external tap water source. During use, the user adjusts the flow regulating valve 203 according to the soil moisture to control the dripping. The dripping speed of nozzle 202 enables automatic watering. The self-suction return mechanism 5 includes a protective pipe 501 and a self-suction strip 502. The protective pipe 501 penetrates the cultivation soil 3, the separating net 6, and the geotextile 7. The self-suction strip 502 penetrates the protective pipe 501. The lower end of the self-suction strip 502 is inserted into the water storage cavity 102, and the upper end of the self-suction strip 502 is in contact with the cultivation soil 3. During use, under the action of capillary action, the self-suction strip 502 draws water from the water storage cavity 102 and transports it upward to the cultivation soil 3, thereby reducing the water accumulation in the water storage cavity 102 and improving the water utilization rate.

[0019] The self-absorbing strip 502 is made of cotton thread or sponge, and slowly draws water from the water storage chamber 102 into the soil through the "capillary suction" of the porous material.

[0020] Working principle: When using this automatic watering flowerpot, plants are placed in the potting soil 3, and the quick-connect fitting 205 is connected to the external tap water pipe. The soil moisture is detected by the soil moisture detector 4. The user adjusts the flow regulating valve 203 according to the soil moisture, thereby controlling the dripping speed of the drip nozzle 202 to achieve automatic watering. At the same time, the geotextile 7 can filter the water, allowing water to pass through the geotextile 7 into the water storage chamber 102 while preventing soil particles from passing through. In addition, the geotextile 7 can also prevent plant roots from entering the water storage chamber 102, preventing root rot caused by prolonged soaking in water. Under the action of capillary action, the self-suction strip 502 draws water from the water storage chamber 102 and transports it upward to the potting soil 3, thereby reducing water accumulation in the water storage chamber 102 and improving water utilization.
