Technology Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a flowerpot for planting and cultivating flowers or plants beneficial to the human body. More specifically, it relates to a hanging flowerpot in which multiple flowers or plants are planted in a single pot, which can be installed in various ways by hanging it on a support or tree branch, and which facilitates easy maintenance through the smooth supply of water, as well as a technology that reduces manufacturing costs and environmental pollution by mostly using recycled containers. Background Technology
[0003] Generally, a flowerpot is a container for planting and cultivating flowers or plants beneficial to the human body, and is primarily used for growing flowers or plants indoors. Depending on the type of flower or plant, such flowerpots can be classified into ornamental, decorative, air purification, or humidity control types.
[0004] Recently, the demand for flowers and plants has been increasing to obtain air purification and psychological stability effects, and many commercial spaces are cultivating flowers and plants to create a nature-friendly atmosphere in urban environments.
[0005] Meanwhile, interior design using flowers or plants is also gaining popularity, and this style is referred to as "planterior." For such planterior, it is crucial to utilize space effectively and maintain the plants in optimal condition through consistent care to enhance the indoor atmosphere.
[0006] However, given the wide variety of structures and forms in indoor spaces, the areas where flowers or plants are placed and the locations where pots are positioned are limited. Furthermore, regular watering is a crucial factor for cultivating flowers or plants; if watering is not smooth, the flowers or plants may wither or die, causing problems that detract from the aesthetics.
[0008] In this regard,
[0009] Korean Registered Patent No. 10-2090395 (Hanging Flowerpot with Double Structure) has been presented as a prior art that automatically supplies water to existing flowerpots and allows for the replacement and cultivation of various plants.
[0010] This prior art can be installed in spaces of various structures and features a watering structure that automatically supplies water to pots by regulating the water level, thereby enabling convenient management of multiple pots. Furthermore, it allows for convenient management by cultivating plants in inner pots and filling outer pots with water, and provides the advantage of being able to cultivate various plants by conveniently replacing inner pots.
[0011] In addition, Korean Registered Patent No. 10-2175972 (hanging flowerpot capable of automatic watering) has been presented as prior art that allows for the cultivation of multiple plants in a narrow space and enables the free arrangement of flowerpots.
[0012] This prior art allows for the cultivation of multiple plants in a small space using a horizontal member capable of suspending multiple flowerpots. It can be utilized with flowerpots of different heights and can be installed on flat or curved surfaces using connecting means such as hooks or strings, thereby enabling free placement and providing the effect of having few structural constraints on the installation space.
[0014] However, the "hanging flowerpot" presented in the prior art has the problem that planting is possible in a limited space, which restricts the area where the flowerpot can be installed, makes space utilization difficult when arranging the flowerpot, and causes the flowerpot to fall and be easily damaged due to external impact.
[0015] In addition, existing prior art has problems such as the inability to plant multiple flowers or plants in a single pot, the inability to install them in various forms in parks or walking paths, the failure to create a nature-friendly atmosphere in urban environments, and excessive production costs.
