Description

[Technical field]

[0001] This invention relates to a flower vase in which cut flowers can be placed and displayed. [Background technology]

[0002] For example, in temples and cemeteries, flower vases (which may also be called flower holders or flower vase) that can hold water are provided so that visitors to the grave can place cut flowers (which may also be called fresh flowers) they have brought with them into the vase for offering.

[0003] In general, conventional flower vases simply store water, so as time passes after fresh flowers are placed in them, the quality of the water deteriorates, and in some cases the water disappears, causing the fresh flowers to deteriorate.

[0004] In relation to such problems, the following Patent Document 1 discloses the configuration of a water supply device for a flower vase that includes a water supply tank for supplying water and a drainage tank for draining water. In this water supply device, the water in the water supply tank is naturally supplied to the flower vase.

[0005] In addition, the following Patent Document 2 discloses a configuration of a circulation type flower vase device equipped with a circulation pump. In this circulation type flower vase device, water in a tank is circulated and supplied to the flower vase part, so that the water quality is maintained. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0021] Hereinafter, embodiments of the flower vase and the like will be described with reference to the drawings. Note that components with the same reference numerals in the embodiments perform similar operations, so repeated description may be omitted.

[0022] In the following description, the shape and positional relationship of each part may be explained by indicating a certain direction, but the direction is merely for convenience of explanation and does not limit the orientation or posture of each device related to this invention when used. In addition, expressions indicating directions and expressions indicating states such as horizontal, vertical, or orthogonal only indicate that they can be roughly understood as such, and should not necessarily be interpreted strictly as such.

[0023] Fig. 1 is a perspective view illustrating the structure of a flower vase 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Fig. 2 is an exploded perspective view of the flower vase 1. Fig. 3 is a front view showing the internal structure of the flower vase 1. Fig. 4 is a side view showing the internal structure of the flower vase 1. Fig. 5 is a plan view showing the internal structure of the flower vase 1. Fig. 6 is a plan view of the flower vase 1.

[0024] As shown in the figure, the flower stand 1 includes a frame 5, a water tank 10, a holding member 50, a support member 60, a filter member 70, and an outer wall portion 80. In this embodiment, the flower stand 1 has a rectangular parallelepiped shape as a whole, and is usually installed on the ground when used. However, the shape and usage of the flower stand 1 are not limited to this.

[0025] The frame 5 is a member that constitutes the framework of the flower stand 1. The frame 5 is formed by combining, for example, metal tubular members. The frame 5 may be made of resin, wood, or the like. The shape of the frame 5 is not particularly limited, but in this embodiment, the frame 5 is formed by combining a plurality of tubes positioned on each side of a rectangular parallelepiped as a whole.

[0026] The water tank 10 is fixed to the frame 5. Water is stored in the water tank 10. The water tank 10 is made of a metal such as stainless steel, but may be made of resin or the like. The water tank 10 is formed in a container shape with an open top so that water can be stored therein. The shape of the water tank 10 is not particularly limited, but in this embodiment, the water tank 10 is formed in a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape.

[0027] In this embodiment, the water tank 10 is disposed so as to be located at the upper part of the framework of the flower stand 1 formed by the frame 5. A space is provided between the bottom of the water tank 10 and the installation surface (e.g., the ground) of the flower stand 1. This makes it easier for a person to place cut flowers (which may be a bouquet or individual flowers) in the flower stand 1 and for a worker to perform maintenance on the water tank 10, while reducing the amount of water stored in the water tank 10.

[0028] In this embodiment, the water tank 10 has a first partition 11, a second partition 12, a water supply section 21, a flower stand section 31, and a drainage section 41. As shown in Fig. 3, the water tank 10 roughly has three sections: the water supply section 21, the flower stand section 31, and the drainage section 41. The first partition 11 is between the water supply section 21 and the flower stand section 31, and the second partition 12 is between the flower stand section 31 and the drainage section 41. That is, the inside of the water tank 10 is divided by the first partition 11 and the second partition 12 into three sections: the water supply section 21, the flower stand section 31, and the drainage section 41.

[0029] The first partition 11 divides the water supply section 21 and the flower stand section 31 inside the water tank 10. The first partition 11 is made of a metal such as stainless steel, but may be made of resin or the like. The shape of the first partition 11 is not particularly limited, but in this embodiment, the first partition 11 is configured as a flat plate that stands almost vertically from the bottom surface inside the water tank 10. The upper end of the first partition 11 is located lower than the upper end of the water tank 10.

[0030] The second partition 12 divides the water tank 10 into a stand 31 and a drainage section 41. The second partition 12 is made of a metal such as stainless steel, but may be made of resin. The shape of the second partition 12 is not particularly limited, but in this embodiment, the second partition 12 is configured as a flat plate that stands almost vertically from the bottom surface inside the water tank 10. The upper end of the second partition 12 is located lower than the upper end of the water tank 10.

[0031] In this embodiment, the upper end of the second partition wall 12 is located lower than the upper end of the first partition wall 11 .

[0032] In this embodiment, the water supply section 21, the flower stand section 31, and the drainage section 41 are arranged in this order in the horizontal left-right direction (which may be called the first direction). The first partition 11 is a flat plate that is approximately perpendicular to the left-right direction. The second partition 12 is a flat plate that is approximately perpendicular to the left-right direction. The first partition 11 and the second partition 12 are arranged approximately parallel to each other. The water tank 10 has such a relatively simple structure and can be easily manufactured. However, the shapes of the first partition 11 and the second partition 12 are not limited to this.

[0033] Water to be supplied is stored inside water tank 10 in water supply unit 21. Water is supplied to water supply unit 21 from an external water source through water supply pipe 91. The water source is, for example, a water supply system, but a pump that supplies water from another water tank may also be used.

[0034] In this embodiment, water supply unit 21 has water supply port 22. Water supply port 22 is provided at the bottom of water tank 10. Water supply port 22 may be provided on a side wall of water tank 10, etc. Water supply port 22 is an opening through which water supply pipe 91 is connected to water tank 10. Water supplied from water supply pipe 91 fills water supply unit 21 through water supply port 22.

[0035] In this embodiment, an adjustment valve 93 that adjusts the amount of water flowing through the water supply pipe 91 is attached to the water supply pipe 91. The adjustment valve 93 may be a known valve, such as a flow rate control valve or an on-off valve.

[0036] The flower vase 31 is a section inside the water tank 10 that is partitioned by the first partition 11 and the second partition 12 so that water can be stored therein. The flower vase 31 is provided adjacent to the water supply section 21. The flower vase 31 is a section that has the largest volume inside the water tank 10, but is not limited thereto.

[0037] The support member 60 can be accommodated inside the flower vase 31. In this embodiment, the flower vase 31 is provided with a support rod 36 arranged to extend substantially horizontally inside the flower vase 31 so as to support the support member 60.

[0038] The flower vase 31 stores the water that overflows from the water supply section 21. That is, when the water supply section 21 is filled with water and the water level of the water supply section 21 exceeds the upper end of the first partition wall 11, the water overflows from the water supply section 21. The water flows into the adjacent flower vase 31 and fills the inside of the flower vase 31.

[0039] In this embodiment, a water drainage port 32 is provided on the bottom surface of the flower vase 31. The water drainage port 32 is usually plugged, which allows the flower vase 31 to be filled with water. A water drainage pipe 98 for connecting to a sewer or the like is connected to the water drainage port 32. When it is necessary to drain the water stored in the flower vase 31 for maintenance work or the like, the water in the flower vase 31 can be quickly drained by unplugging the water drainage port 32.

[0040] The drainage section 41 is provided adjacent to the vase 31. The drainage section 41 is configured so that water overflowing from the vase 31 flows into it. That is, when the vase 31 is filled with water and the water level in the vase 31 exceeds the upper end of the second partition wall 12, the water overflows from the vase 31. The water flows into the adjacent drainage section 41.

[0041] The drain section 41 is provided with a drain outlet 42. The drain outlet 42 is provided at the bottom of the water tank 10. The drain outlet 42 may be provided on a side wall of the water tank 10 or the like. A drain pipe 96 is connected to the drain outlet 42. The drain pipe 96 is a pipe for connecting to a sewer system or the like, similar to the drain pipe 98. Water that flows into the drain section 41 is drained from the drain outlet 42 via the drain pipe 96. It is to be noted that the drain outlet 42 may be plugged or a valve may be provided on the drain pipe 96, so that it may be possible to adjust whether or not the water flowing into the drain section 41 is drained.

[0042] In the present embodiment, a filter member 70 can be housed inside the drainage section 41. An example of the configuration of the filter member 70 will be described later.

[0043] The holding member 50 is disposed on the upper part of the water tank 10. The holding member 50 is configured to be able to hold the position of the cut flowers standing in the water tank 10. The holding member 50 is also configured to be able to be displaced upward relative to the water tank 10 and removed from the water tank 10. The holding member 50 is made of, for example, metal, but is not limited to this, and may be made of resin, ceramic, or the like.

[0044] In this embodiment, the holding member 50 has a lattice section 55 formed on a flat member (sometimes called a top plate) that forms the upper surface. The lattice section 55 is openings formed on the top plate that are arranged in a lattice pattern in a plan view, and is configured so that a bunch of cut flowers can be inserted into each of them. The lattice section 55 has rectangular openings arranged in both the left-right direction and the front-rear direction (which may be called a second direction) perpendicular thereto, for example, but the arrangement is not limited to this, and the shape of each opening is not limited to a rectangle.

[0045] In this embodiment, the holding member 50 is configured by combining a top plate and multiple plate-like members extending downward from the top plate. That is, the lattice part 55 is configured by combining multiple flat plate-like members that are approximately perpendicular to the horizontal plane. In this embodiment, the lattice part 55 can be said to be a portion where multiple tubular parts for flower vases that open at the top and bottom are lined up. Since cut flowers can be inserted into such tubular parts, the cut flowers can be kept in an approximately upright position.

[0046] The lower end of the lattice portion 55 is located lower than the upper end of the second partition 12. This makes it difficult for cut flowers inserted in the lattice portion 55 to get caught on cut flowers inserted in other adjacent lattice portions 55 when water is stored in the flower vase 31. Therefore, cut flowers can be easily inserted so that the stems of each cut flower are reliably positioned in the water.

[0047] The lattice part 55 is arranged so as to be located at the upper part of the flower vase part 31. The top plates of the left and right parts of the lattice part 55 can be called the first lid part 51 and the second lid part 52. The first lid part 51 is a part that covers the upper part of the water supply part 21. Also, the second lid part 52 is a part that covers the upper part of the drainage part 41. By providing the first lid part 51 and the second lid part 52, when the holding member 50 is arranged at the upper part of the water tank 10, the water supply part 21 and the drainage part 41 are not exposed upward, and it is possible to prevent foreign matter from being mixed in. Also, it is possible to make the appearance of the flower vase 1 give a neat impression to the viewer.

[0048] At least one of the first lid portion 51 and the second lid portion 52 does not necessarily have to be provided. Furthermore, a member equivalent to the first lid portion 51 and the second lid portion 52 may be provided separately from the holding member 50.

[0049] In this embodiment, the holding member 50 is supported, for example, by a part of the top plate contacting the upper end of the water tank 10, but is not limited to this. For example, the holding member 50 may be supported by the top plate or other part contacting the frame 5. Also, the holding member 50 may be removably fixed to the frame 5 or the water tank 10 so as not to fall off.

[0050] The support member 60 is disposed inside the vase 31. The support member 60 is configured to be capable of contacting the lower portion, for example the lower end portion, of the cut flower placed in the vase 31 and to support the cut flower from below.

[0051] In this embodiment, a part or the entirety of the support member 60 is configured in a sieve shape having a mesh portion. This allows water to flow through the support member while preventing cut flowers and foreign objects from passing through the support member 60. The form of the support member 60 is not limited to this. For example, the support member 60 may be configured in a sieve shape having a plurality of fine holes using a punched metal material or the like. The support member 60 is made of, for example, metal, but is not limited to this and may be made of resin or the like.

[0052] The support member 60 is formed so as to divide the space inside the flower vase 31 into upper and lower parts. In other words, the support member 60 has an outer shape that fits the inner peripheral surface of the flower vase 31. This prevents most of the cut flowers and foreign objects in the upper part of the support member 60 from moving below the support member 60.

[0053] In this embodiment, the support member 60 is configured so that it can be displaced upward inside the flower stand 31 and removed from the water tank 10. As a result, for example, during maintenance work, the support member 60 can be pulled up from inside the flower stand 31, and foreign objects and the like located above the support member 60 can be scooped up and removed from the water.

[0054] The filter member 70 is disposed inside the drainage section 41. In this embodiment, a part or the entire part of the filter member 70 is configured in a sieve shape having a mesh portion. The form of the support member 60 is not limited to this. For example, the support member 60 may be configured in a sieve shape having a plurality of fine holes using a punching metal material or the like. The support member 60 is made of, for example, metal, but is not limited to this and may be made of resin, etc.

[0055] The filter member 70 is disposed below the upper end of the second partition wall 12 and above the bottom surface of the drainage section 41. That is, the water flowing into the drainage section 41 passes through the filter member 70 before being drained from the drainage section 41 to the outside. This allows the filter member 70 to remove foreign matter mixed in the wastewater flowing into the drainage section 41 before draining the water. In this embodiment, the filter member 70 is formed to divide the internal space of the drainage section 41 into upper and lower parts. In other words, the filter member 70 has an outer shape that fits the inner circumferential surface of the drainage section 41. This makes it possible to prevent the filter member 70 from clogging even if there is a lot of foreign matter mixed in the wastewater. The filter member 70 may be disposed in the drainage port 41.

[0056] The filter member 70 may be removable from the drainage section 41. This allows the foreign matter trapped by the filter member 70 to be easily removed during maintenance work or the like.

[0057] The outer wall 80 is configured to cover the periphery of the water tank 10. The outer wall 80 surrounds the periphery of the water tank 10 so that the periphery of the water tank 10 is not exposed to the sides. In this embodiment, the outer wall 80 is configured to cover the periphery of the flower stand 1 up to near the installation surface. By surrounding not only the water tank 10 but also the water supply pipe 91, the drain pipe 96, the water drain pipe 98, etc. so that they are not exposed to the outside, the appearance of the flower stand 1 can be made to give a neat and tidy impression to the viewer.

[0058] The outer wall portion 80 is, for example, a metal plate, but is not limited to this, and may be, for example, a resin plate, a decorative plate, a stone plate, a ceramic plate, or the like.

[0059] In this embodiment, the outer wall portion 80 has a door portion 85. The door portion 85 is provided in the vicinity of a portion of the outer wall portion 80 where the adjustment valve 93 of the water supply pipe 91 is disposed. As shown in FIG. 5, the door portion 85 is configured to be openable and closable so that the adjustment valve 93 can be operated from the outside. For example, the substantially entire side surface close to the water supply pipe 91 is configured to be the door portion 85, so that adjustment of the adjustment valve 93 and other maintenance work can be easily performed, but only a portion of the side surface may be the door portion 85 that can be opened and closed. In addition, the means for opening and closing the door portion 85 may be a plate-shaped member that rotates around a rotation axis, a member that slides, or a shutter.

[0060] When using the flower stand 1 configured as above, first, water is supplied to the water supply section 21 of the water tank 10 through the water supply pipe 91. The water supplied to the water supply section 21 flows over the upper end of the first partition 11 into the flower stand section 31. The water that has flowed into the flower stand section 31 flows over the upper end of the second partition 12 into the drain section 41, and is drained to the outside through the drain pipe 96.

[0061] When placing cut flowers in the flower vase 1, the cut flowers are inserted into the lattice portion 55 of the holding member 50. The lower end of the cut flowers can be supported by the support member 60, which prevents the cut flowers from being immersed too deeply in the flower vase 31.

[0062] In this way, the flower stand 1 has the water tank 10 divided into three sections: the water supply section 21, the flower stand section 31, and the drainage section 41, and the water in the flower stand section 31 can be easily replaced by supplying water. By continuously supplying water, the water in the flower stand section 31 can be continuously replaced. In the flower stand 1 with its simple structure, deterioration of the water quality can be easily prevented, and the freshness of cut flowers can be maintained for a relatively long period of time.

[0063] Furthermore, since the flower stand 1 is provided with a support member 60, by placing cut flowers on the support member 60, the lower ends of the cut flowers can be prevented from contacting the bottom surface of the water tank 10, and the cut flowers can be prevented from spoiling.

[0064] Furthermore, since the flower stand 1 is provided with the filter member 70, foreign matter contained in the water that has flowed into the drainage section 41 can be removed by the filter member 70, and clogging of the drainage pipe 96 can be prevented.

[0065] Furthermore, since the holding member 50 is configured to be removable from the water tank 10, it can be removed and washed, facilitating the maintenance and management of the flower stand 1. As the holding member 50 is pulled up, the cut flowers standing in the lattice section 55 can be removed from the water tank 10 in that state, so that after maintenance work, the cut flowers can be easily returned to their original state or deteriorated cut flowers can be easily discarded.

[0066] In addition, since the support member 60 is configured to be removable from the water tank 10, the support member 60 can be removed for cleaning, and maintenance of the flower stand 1 can be easily performed. When the flower stand 1 is used, there is a problem that the tissue of the fresh flower falls and floats in the water, or other organic matter floats and gets mixed in. If foreign matter gets into the water in this way, the water quality will deteriorate quickly, so it is desirable to remove it as much as possible. However, it is difficult to frequently perform the troublesome task of removing foreign matter. Regarding such a problem, in the flower stand 1, when the support member 60 is lifted from the water tank 10, the foreign matter can be easily removed by scooping it up with the support member 60.

[0067] Furthermore, since the flower stand 1 includes the outer wall portion 80, the water tank 10, the water supply pipe 91, and the drain pipe 96 are not exposed to the outside, and the appearance of the flower stand 1 can be maintained in good condition.

[0068] In addition, since the flower stand 1 is provided with a door section 85, the adjustment valve 93 can be operated by opening and closing the door section 85, and the amount of water supply can be easily adjusted while maintaining the appearance of the flower stand 1 in good condition.

[0069] Next, the flower stand 1 constructed as described above can be installed, for example, in the following specific form.

[0070] Fig. 7 is a diagram showing one specific example of installation of the flower vase 1. Fig. 8 is a diagram showing another specific example of installation of the flower vase 1.

[0071] As shown in Fig. 7, for example, the flower vase 1 can be installed in a place of worship in a charnel house in a temple. In this case, the outer wall 80 can be made of a material and have a surface finish that matches the appearance of the charnel house. Also, as shown in Fig. 8, the flower vase 1 can be placed on both sides of a central stone base.

[0072] In the past, especially in summer, when people visit graves to offer flowers, there was a problem that the flowers in conventional vase deteriorate rapidly due to changes in water quality, necessitating frequent water changes, and furthermore, the disposal of rotten flowers and other management is also a lot of work. In contrast, the flower vase 1 according to the present embodiment can maintain the freshness of flowers for a relatively long period of time without the need for manual management, even in facilities where multiple people visit graves in the same place.

[0073] (others)

[0074] The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and various modifications are possible, and are also included within the scope of the present invention. Some of the components or functions of the above-described embodiment and modifications may be omitted.

[0075] For example, in the above-mentioned embodiment, a water passage part such as a hole formed to allow water to pass through may be provided in a part of the first partition or a part of the second partition, so that water can flow from the water supply part to the flower stand part, or from the flower stand part to the drain part. When a water passage part is provided in a part of the second partition, a filter member may be provided in this water passage part to prevent foreign matter from entering the drain.

[0076] The filter member may be provided, for example, at the upper end of the second partition wall. That is, the water overflowing from the flower stand may pass through the filter member when it flows over the upper end of the second partition wall, thereby preventing foreign matter from flowing into the drainage section. [Industrial Applicability]

[0077] As described above, the flower vase of the present invention has a relatively simple structure and has the effect of being able to maintain the freshness of cut flowers for a relatively long period of time, making it useful as a flower vase, etc. [Explanation of symbols]
