Flower Holder Fixing Structure for Orchid Assembly
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional flower bonsai assembly requires experienced personnel and additional materials like styrofoam or waste fabrics to adjust and fix orchids, leading to high labor and material costs, as well as environmental concerns, due to the lack of a proper fixing structure in flower holders.
Innovation Solution
A two-piece design comprising a flower holder main body and a collecting sleeve assembly with a central accommodating slot and position limiting members allows for easy and fast assembly of potted orchids without the need for additional materials, enabling non-professional assembly and reducing costs.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a conventional flower holder without fixing structure is used, then the flower holder design is simple, but additional materials are required to fix the potted orchids and the assembly requires experienced personnel
Solution Approach 1:
The flower holder is divided into two separate components: the flower holder body and the collecting sleeve assembly. This segmentation allows the fixing structure to be integrated into the collecting sleeve assembly independently, providing easy assembly and disassembly while maintaining the simplicity of the overall flower holder design.
Solution Approach 2:
The collecting sleeve assembly incorporates position limiting members and accommodating slot zones that automatically guide and constrain the potted orchids during assembly. This self-service mechanism eliminates the need for experienced personnel to perform complex adjusting operations, as the structure itself provides the necessary positioning and fixing functions.
2Reliability
If different materials are filled in the flower holder to fix the potted orchids, then the fixing effect is improved, but the material cost and environmental protection issues arise
Solution Approach 1:
The invention extracts the fixing function from external materials (such as styrofoam or waste fabrics) and integrates it directly into the flower holder structure through the collecting sleeve assembly with position limiting members. This eliminates the need for additional fixing materials, reducing both material cost and environmental impact while maintaining reliable fixing effect.
Solution Approach 2:
The collecting sleeve assembly serves as an intermediary component between the flower holder body and the potted orchids. It provides the fixing function through its integrated position limiting members and accommodating slot zones, replacing the need for external fixing materials and enabling direct, material-free fixation.
3Shape
If the flower holder size is made large to provide magnificent sensation, then the visual effect is improved, but the potted orchid cannot be directly disposed and additional materials are required
Solution Approach 1:
The collecting sleeve assembly introduces a new dimensional layer between the flower holder body and the potted orchids. This intermediate dimension provides the necessary positioning and fixing functions that bridge the size difference between the large flower holder and the smaller potted orchids, enabling direct assembly without additional materials.
4Duration of action of stationary object
If the flower holder is made through ceramic material with firing treatment, then the durability is improved, but the cost and transportation issues arise
Solution Approach 1:
The flower holder is segmented into the flower holder body and the collecting sleeve assembly, allowing the collecting sleeve assembly to be manufactured separately using more cost-effective materials and processes. This segmentation reduces the need for expensive ceramic firing treatment while maintaining overall durability through the integrated fixing structure.

AI summary
The present invention provides a fixing structure for collecting and assembling flower, especially used for collecting and placing potted plants such as potted orchids, mainly including a flower holder main body and a collecting sleeve assembly sleeved at a top end of the flower holder main body; a central accommodating slot and position limiting members annularly arranged along an inner edge are formed in the collecting sleeve assembly, two crossed adjacent abutting surfaces are respectively formed in the plurality of position limiting members, and an outer edge of central accommodating slot is formed with concave arc-shaped abutting surfaces at locations corresponding to the adjacent position limiting members, and the position limiting members is connected to a bottom edge of the central accommodating slot via a rib sheet, so that an accommodating slot zone is formed through each set of the three abutting surfaces.
