Description

[Detailed description of the invention] This invention relates to a flower holder used when displaying fresh flowers, artificial flowers, dried flowers, etc.

Traditionally used flower holders are made by twisting together a large number of needle-like branches and leaves made of synthetic resin in a spiral pattern.
Some use multiple main stems that are sandwiched between book wires and focused. This method holds the stems of fresh flowers, etc. using the elastic force and frictional force of the needle-like branches and leaves, so it has the advantage of being able to freely choose the position, angle, depth, etc. of holding the fresh flowers, etc.
The holding force is not necessarily sufficient, and there is a drawback that the shape is easily disturbed during movement or due to impact.

This idea was developed by bending the main trunk to increase the density of the needle-like branches and thereby increasing the holding force, and by spreading and fixing wire mesh on the front and both sides of the upper half of the frame body. The object of the present invention is to provide a flower stopper with a strong holding force by providing a reliable holding part for fresh flowers, etc.

Embodiments of this invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

In Figures 1 to 3, 10 is the bone frame body;
It is constructed by welding, bending, or a combination of these methods from a rigid wire such as wire having an appropriate thickness. The back surface 11 of the bone frame main body 10 is made up of left and right, upper and lower wire rods 11a, 11b, 11c, and 11d,
On the front are left and right, center and upper and lower wire rods 12a, 12.
b, 12e, 12c, and 12d. In the embodiment, the front surface 12 has only an upper half, but a lower half may be provided if necessary. The left side surface 13 has front and rear and upper and lower wire rods 12a, 11a, 13a, 1
3b, and the right side is the same wire rods 12b and 11.
b, 14a, and 14b. The lower surface 15 has wire rods 15a, 15b, 15 on the left, right, front, back, and center.
c, 11d, and 15d, and the upper surface 16 is on the left and right,
Center and front and rear wire rods 13a, 14a, 16a,
It consists of 12c and 11c. A first reinforcing member 11e is provided between the left and right wire rods 11a and 11b on the upper part of the back surface 11, and a second reinforcing member 11f is provided below the first reinforcing member 11e.
is provided. Also, the wire rod 1 at the lower end of the left and right sides
A third reinforcing member 17 is provided between 3b and 14b. The frame main body 10 is appropriately rust-proofed by painting or the like.

Inside the bone frame body 10, three main stems 20 are erected side by side in the lateral direction. As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the main trunk 20 consists of two spirally twisted
A large number of elastic needle-like branches and leaves 22 made of synthetic resin are sandwiched between book wires 21, 21 and bundled. (For example, it has a shape like an elongated cylindrical brush for cleaning bottles.) At both ends of the three main stems 20, excluding the needle-like branches 22, there are only wires 21, 21, and one end is bent and attached to the wire at the center of the bottom. 1
5d and is erected above it. Each of the main stems 20 extending upward is gently bent in the back direction, and the first stem 20 extends from the front of the third reinforcing member 17.
The reinforcing member 11e is reached, and here the first reinforcing member 11
It is sharply bent downward so as to engage with the second reinforcing member 11f, and its tip is bent and fixed to the second reinforcing member 11f. Part of the left and right lower portions of the left and right main stems 20 protrude outside the bone frame body 10, but most of them, especially the upper half thereof, are located inside the bone frame body 10.

A wire mesh 30 is spread on the front surface 12 and both side surfaces 13 and 14 of the upper half of the frame body 10, and the wire mesh 30 is bent around the wire rods 11a, 11b, 13a, 13b,
14a, 14b, 12c, and 12d.
The width of the mesh of the wire mesh 30 is such that the stems of fresh flowers, etc. can be inserted therethrough with sufficient margin. In the embodiment, the mesh of the wire mesh 30 is hexagonal, but it can also be square. Further, it is preferable that the wire mesh 30 is appropriately rust-proofed, such as by using a vinyl-coated iron wire as the wire material.

Next, how to use it will be explained.

The flower stopper of the present invention is such that the stem 40a of a fresh flower 40 is inserted into the frame main body 10 through the wire mesh 30, and inserted between the needle-like branches and leaves 22 of the main stem 20 to hold it. The fresh flowers, etc. 40 are firmly held at their intermediate portions using the openings of the wire mesh 30 as fulcrums, and at their tips are held by the elastic force and frictional force of the needle-like branches and leaves 22 of the main stem 20. 40 fresh flowers etc.
can be inserted from the front (in the direction of arrow A) or from the side (in the direction of arrow B), and the insertion angle and insertion depth are arbitrary.

The flower stopper of the present invention may be used by being placed in a container 41 such as a flower vase, or may be hung on a wall or the like.

As explained above, conventional flower clasps are made by fixing multiple main stems in parallel, each consisting of two twisted wires with needle-like branches and leaves made of synthetic resin, to hold the stems of fresh flowers, etc. The holding force of the tool in the vertical direction is mostly stable when it is in a stationary state, but the stability of supporting fresh flowers in the horizontal and diagonal directions is extremely unstable, especially when moving or impacting the original shape. It is said that it is difficult to ensure maintenance. On the other hand, in the flower stopper of the present invention, the main stem of the structure standing up from the bottom is engaged with the first reinforcing member on the upper back of the frame and bent downward, so that the needle-like branches on the inner side near the bending area are The density of the foliage increases, and the elastic force and frictional force of the branches and leaves act strongly, increasing the holding power of the tip of the stem of the inserted fresh flower, etc., and the front and both sides of the upper half of the frame body. By spreading and fixing the wire mesh, the middle part of the stem is supported by the mesh of the wire mesh, so the stem is held by both the mesh and the dense needle-like branches and leaves, and fresh flowers etc. Stability is achieved, and there is no risk of the model being disturbed even when moved or subjected to impact. Moreover, as in the conventional case, the advantage of freely selecting the position, angle, and depth of insertion of fresh flowers, etc. is not lost, and there is no need to worry about the conventional horizontal or diagonal insertion, which lacks stability. The effect of improving practicality is said to be extremely significant.
