Modes for Carrying Out the Invention

[0010] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the following, the same elements in all the drawings are denoted by the same reference numerals, and redundant descriptions are omitted. Also, in the description in the text, the reference numerals described previously will be used as necessary.

[0011] FIG. 1 is a view showing a flowerpot set 1 in which a flowerpot 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention and a saucer portion 16 for a flowerpot are installed as a set. FIG. 2 is a view showing a state in which the flowerpot 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention and the saucer portion 16 for a flowerpot are separated, and further the dish portion 18 and the lid portion 20 of the saucer portion 16 for a flowerpot are also separated.

[0012] FIG. 3 is a view showing a state in which the flowerpot 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention and the saucer portion 16 for a flowerpot are separated, and is a view showing a state in which the top and bottom of the flowerpot 10 are reversed. FIG. 4 is a view showing the flowerpot set 1 in which the flowerpot 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention and the saucer portion 16 for a flowerpot are installed as a set.

[0013] The flowerpot set 1 includes a flowerpot 10 and a saucer portion 16 for a flowerpot. First, the flowerpot 10 will be described, and then the saucer portion 16 for a flowerpot will be described.

[0014] The flowerpot 10 can plant a plant and can easily attach a display plate 5 for displaying the name of this plant. The flowerpot 10 includes a flowerpot main body portion 12 and a pocket portion 14.

[0015] The flowerpot main body portion 12 has an opening portion 12T formed on the ceiling side, a bottom portion 12B formed on the bottom side, and a cylindrical accommodating portion 12C having a space for planting a plant.

[0016] The accommodating portion 12C of the flowerpot main body portion 12 is a member having a cylindrical shape. An opening portion 12T for taking in and out a plant is formed on the upper surface side, and a bottom portion 12B is formed on the lower surface side.

[0017] The shape and size of the storage part 12C vary. For example, the diameter can be set to 12 cm and the height to 8 cm. The outer wall surface of the storage part 12C is decorated. For example, as shown in FIG. 1, it is embossed so that a plurality of vertically extending grooves are formed. The storage part 12C contains culture soil for planting and growing plants.

[0018] The pocket part 14 is provided on the inner wall surface (inner wall surface) of the storage part 12C on the side of the opening 12T, and is a pocket having a slit-shaped insertion opening for inserting a plate-shaped display plate for displaying the type of plant. A plate-shaped display plate 5 with the name of the plant to be planted in the storage part 12C written on it is inserted into this pocket part 14. The state where this display plate 5 is inserted is shown in FIG. 4.

[0019] In addition, a plurality of ribs are formed across the bottom side of the inner wall surface of the storage part 12C and the bottom part 12B. Here, six triangular plate-shaped ribs are installed at equal intervals in the circumferential direction.

[0020] The bottom part 12B of the flowerpot 10 is formed with a plurality of slit parts 24 for discharging the moisture present in the storage part 12C. As shown in FIG. 3, six slit parts 24 are formed side by side in the circumferential direction at equal intervals radially on the bottom part 12B of the flowerpot 10.

[0021] Each slit part 24 has a substantially V-shaped groove part that is wider on the bottom side and narrower toward the upper side. The groove width is set so as to be able to fit with the fitting part 22 of the saucer part 16 for the flowerpot. Here, the width of the bottom side of each slit part 24 is set to about 3 mm, and the length of the groove is described as being set to about 3.5 cm, but of course, it can be changed as appropriate.

[0022] The saucer part 16 for the flowerpot is installed under the flowerpot 10. The saucer part 16 for the flowerpot is composed of a saucer part 18 and a lid part 20.

[0023] The dish part 18 has a cylindrical drainage container part with an opening at the upper part and a predetermined height, and a bottom part provided on the bottom surface side of the drainage container part. The outer wall surface of the drainage container part of the dish part 18 is decorated.

[0024] For example, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, it is concavo-convex processed so that a plurality of vertically extending grooves are formed. The diameter of the dish part 18 is set to about 12 cm, and the height is set to about 2 cm. Of course, these numerical values can also be changed as appropriate.

[0025] The lid part 20 is a plate-like member having a circular shape capable of covering the dish part 18. The diameter of the lid part 20 is set to about 12 cm, and the height (thickness) is set to about 5 mm.

[0026] The lid part 20 includes six fitting parts 22 and twelve inflow holes 25. Each fitting part 22 is a convex member for fitting a plurality of slit parts 24. Each inflow hole 25 is a slit-shaped hole for allowing the moisture discharged from each slit part 24 to flow into the dish part 18.

[0027] As shown in FIG. 3, one set is arranged such that two inflow holes 25 sandwich both the left and right sides of one fitting part 22, and six sets of this are arranged radially. These six sets arranged side by side in the circumferential direction are provided so as to correspond to the six radially slit parts 24 of the flowerpot main body part 12. Further, the width of each fitting part 22 is set to about 2 mm, and the length is set to about 3.5 cm. The width of each inflow hole 25 is set to about 2 mm, and the length is set to about 3.5 cm.

[0028] Subsequently, the operation of the flowerpot set 1 including the flowerpot 10 and the flowerpot saucer part 16 having the above configuration will be described. Conventionally, flowerpots for planting and growing plants have been developed. Here, culture soil is accommodated in the flowerpot and plants are planted therein, but there is a problem that a person who is not familiar with plants may not know the names of the plants. In response to such a problem, the flowerpot 10 of the flowerpot set 1 exhibits a remarkable effect.

[0029] As shown in Fig. 1, the flowerpot 10 has a slit-shaped pocket portion 14 formed on the opening 12T side of the accommodating portion 12C. As shown in Fig. 5, a display plate 5 with the name of the plant planted in the culture soil or the like accommodated in the accommodating portion 12C can be inserted into the pocket portion 14 and protruded upward from the flowerpot 10.

[0030] According to the flowerpot 10 in this way, there is an advantage that the name of the plant can be easily conveyed only by inserting the display plate 5 with the name described therein into the pocket portion 14.

[0031] Also, a saucer portion 16 for the flowerpot is laid under the flowerpot 10. Here, the six slit portions 24 of the flowerpot 10 and the six fitting portions 22 of the saucer portion 16 for the flowerpot can be aligned, and each slit portion 24 and the corresponding fitting portion 22 can be fitted together. Thereby, since the horizontal movement of the flowerpot 10 can be restricted, displacement can be prevented. Further, after the drainage in the accommodating portion 12 of the flowerpot 10 is discharged through the slit portion 24, it can be stored in the dish portion 18 via the inflow hole 25. Thereafter, the dish portion 18 and the lid portion 20 can be disassembled and the water can be discarded as necessary.
