Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Field of industrial application] This invention relates to a fixture that is loaded into a container for storing a potted plant containing plants, flowers, etc., and stops the movement of the potted plant. It is something.

[Conventional technology]

Conventional fixtures of this type are shown in Figures 7 and 8.
As shown in the figure, in the center of a rectangular fixing plate 31 that is made of thick paper such as cardboard and has approximately the same shape as the bottom surface of the container to be loaded into the rectangular cylindrical container A that has a levee at the upper end.
An inverted tray-shaped structure is known in which a circular pot-fitting hole 33 is provided with a number of inward facing pleated locking pieces 32, and downwardly bent side plates 34 are arranged on the four sides of the fixing plate 31. ing.

This fixture for a potted plant is inserted onto the bottom surface of a container A, and is used by fitting the lower end of the pot B into the pot fitting hole 33.

[The problem that the idea aims to solve]

However, this conventional fixing device for potted plants supports the bottom end of the pot, so the top part tends to wobble and the pot can slip upwards from the fixing plate, causing damage to the plants and flowers. It was hot.

This invention was made in view of the problems of conventional products, and its purpose is to create a potted plant that supports the center of the flower pot to prevent the plant from wobbling along with the pot. The aim is to provide a fixing device for

[Means to solve the problem]

In order to achieve the above object, the potted tree fixing device of this invention has side plates erected on both ends of a fixing plate provided with a pot fitting hole, and an upper plate is constructed between the upper edges of the both side plates. , a pot insertion hole with a required shape larger than the outer diameter of the upper edge of the pot is provided in the upper plate so that the pot can pass from above to below the upper plate when the side plate is folded down, and when the side plate is erected, the periphery of this pot insertion hole is It is designed to touch the upper edge of the pot.

[Effect]

The potted tree fixing device configured in this way allows the pot to pass from above to below the top plate when the side plate is folded down (see Figure 4), and the pot can be inserted into the pot fitting hole of the fixing plate. When the side plate is raised up (see Figure 5), the periphery of the pot insertion hole in the top plate comes into contact with the upper edge of the pot and presses it down, ensuring that the pot is firmly clamped and stabilized. A fixed morphology is obtained.

〔Example〕

1 to 6 show examples of this invention,
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 5, this potted tree fixing tool includes a rectangular fixing plate 1 made of cardboard or other thick paper, and a fixing device that stands up on both edges of this fixing plate 1 and is placed inside the container A. It is a box body consisting of a pair of side plates 2 of a required height l that are in contact (see Fig. 6), and an upper plate 3 of the same shape as the fixed plate 1 installed between the upper edges of both side plates 2,
It is bent and formed from a single punched board.

As shown in FIG. 2, the punched board has elongated rectangular side plates 2 with a width l on both ends of a rectangular fixing plate 1.
A top plate 3 having the same shape as the fixing plate 1 is provided on the edge of one of the side plates 2, a gluing allowance 4 is provided on one end of the top plate 3, and a A folding piece 5 is provided protrudingly, an end plate 6 having the same width as the side plate 2 is provided on both ends of the top plate 3, and an insert piece 7 is provided on the end edge of each end plate 6.
It is made up of a series of

The fixing plate 1 is provided with a circular pot-fitting hole 9 provided with a large number of inward pleated locking pieces 8 formed by radial cuts in the center, and the upper plate 3 is provided with An elliptical pot insertion hole 10 with an inner diameter larger than the outer diameter m of the upper edge of the flowerpot B is provided with the center O2 at a point offset by the width l of the side plate ₂ from _O1 .

The inner diameter of the pot fitting hole 9 of the fixing plate 1 has a dimension corresponding to the lower outer diameter of the thick ring 41 (see Fig. 5) on the upper body of the flower pot B, and the pot is attached to the lower end of the small diameter. When inserted from above, the pot is tightly abutted against the lower edge of the thick ring 41, and the pleated locking piece 8 is bent downward to come into contact with the outer peripheral surface of the pot body.

The height dimension l of the side plate 2 is the thick ring 41 of the flower pot B.
This thick ring 41 almost matches the height dimension of
is held between the fixed plate 1 and the upper plate 3 (see FIGS. 5 and 6).

Incidentally, the pair of end plates 6 and insertion pieces 7 which are connected to both ends of the upper plate 3 may be omitted.

The oval pot insertion hole 10 of the upper plate 3 has an arc 10a that is larger than the outer diameter of the upper edge of the flowerpot centered on the eccentric center _O2 , and an arc 10b that is smaller than the outer diameter of the upper edge of the flowerpot centered on the center _O1 . It is formed from
When the side plate is folded down, the large arc 10a overlaps concentrically with the pot fitting hole 9 of the fixed plate 1, allowing insertion of the pot, and when the side plate is raised, the small arc 10b overlaps with the pot fitting hole 9 and the pot fitting hole 9 is inserted. The rim will come into contact with the top edge of the pot.

Note that the pot insertion hole in the upper plate 3 does not necessarily have to be oval-shaped, but should be large enough to allow the pot to pass through when the side plate is folded down, and when the side plate is erected, its edge will be at the top of the pot. It suffices if it comes into contact with.

To assemble this fixing tool from a punched board, the fixing plate 1 and the top plate 3 are made to face each other, a glue allowance 4 is attached to the side plate 2 at the end, the end plate 6 is bent, and the insertion piece 7 is folded in. The box body (see Figures 1 and 5)
to form.

When using this fixture in a container for potted plants, as shown in Figures 3 and 4, unfold the insert piece 7 and the end plate 6, and fold down each side plate 2 to form a flat plate. . At this time, the pot fitting hole 9 of the fixed plate 1 and the pot insertion hole 10 of the upper plate 3 overlap substantially concentrically.

Next, from the upper plate 3 to the fixed plate 1, there is a pot insertion hole 10.
Push the flower pot B into the pot fitting hole 9 (see Fig. 4), fit the pot fitting hole 9 into the lower edge of the thick ring 41,
When each side plate 2 is erected, the pot insertion hole 10 of the upper plate 3
The edge of the thick ring 41 rides above the thick ring 41 (see FIG. 5), and the upper plate 3 and the fixed plate 1 come to grip the thick ring 41.

When the potted plant container A with a bank is stored in this state, the side plate 2 and end plate 6 are tightly inscribed in the container A and do not wobble, and the flower pot B is supported at its upper end. Even if you accidentally tilt it, it won't damage your plants or flowers.

[Effect of idea]

This idea is structured as described above, so
This produces the following effects.

Since it supports the upper end of the flowerpot, that is, the center of the potted plant containing the plant or flower, and also holds the thick ring of the pot, there is a possibility that the fixing device may fall off due to vibration. This has the effect of making the fixation much more firm than before.
