Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to the technical field of flowerpot manufacturing, and

specifically to a flowerpot structure.

DESCRIPTION OF RELATED ART

As a type of vessels for planting, flowerpots are often seen or used in daily life. Conventional flowerpots are mostly one-piece structures. In order to save space during transportation, most flowerpots are designed as a conical structure reduced from top to bottom. In this way, several flowerpots can be stacked together during transportation to greatly reduce transportation space. With the rise of on-line shopping, on-line sales have become the main sales channel for many merchants. Sometimes individuals buy few, and even only one flowerpot at a time, and in this case, the existing one-piece flowerpots have a large packaging volume and lead to high transportation costs. Therefore, the structures of the existing flowerpots need to be further improved.

Embodiment 6: As shown in FIG. 18 to FIG. 20, the flowerpot structure of this embodiment is based on Embodiment 1, where the flowerpot body is provided with decorative lights 6, the outer pot 2 employs a hollow structure, and the pattern or shape of the hollow structure can be designed arbitrarily. Upper and lower parts of the flowerpot are provided with the decorative lights 6. After the decorative lights 6 are powered on, light is emitted from the hollow structure, which can improve the aesthetics of the flowerpot. The outer pot 2 may alternatively be made of a light transmitting material. In this embodiment, the decorative lights 6 are light strips. The decorative lights 6 may alternatively be light beads.

The decorative lights 6 are connected to an electric wire, the pot holder 3 is provided with a threading hole 3a, and an edge of the pot holder 3 is provided with a wiring duct 3b. The threading hole 3a and the wiring duct 3b facilitate the routing of the electric wire.

Embodiment 11: As shown in FIG. 25 to FIG. 30, in this embodiment, the outer pot 2 includes a plate main body 21, the plate main body 21 is of a continuous bending structure, upper and lower ends of the plate main body 21 are provided with a shaping groove rail 22, a guide rod 23 is detachably matched in the shaping groove rail 22, and the guide rod 23 is inserted at an end of the plate main body 21.

The upper end of the outer pot 2 of the flowerpot is fixed to the pot opening 11, the lower end of the outer pot 2 is fixed to the pot holder 3, the segmented shaping groove rail 22 is arranged at the upper end of the plate main body 21, a recess 11b adapted to the shaping groove rail 22 is arranged in the pot opening 11, the shaping groove rail 22 is fixed in the recess 11b, and an assembly slot adapted to the shaping groove rail 22 is also arranged in the pot holder 3. The shaping groove rail 22 can be fixed with the recess 11b by fixing parts such as screws or buckles, or by bonding.

Buckles 24 adapted to the guide rod 23 are arranged in the shaping groove rail 22 at intervals. The plate main body 21 is of a flat plate structure after being manufactured, and bending grooves 21a on the plate main body 21 are integrally formed. During assembly, the guide rod 23 is threaded into a through hole at an end of the plate main body 21, the plate main body 21 is bent along the bending grooves 21a to form a continuous bending structure, and then the guide rod 23 is buckled into the buckles 24 of the shaping groove rail 22 to connect the plate main body 21, the guide rod 23, and the shaping groove rail 22 into a plate. Because the plate main body 21 is of continuous bending structure to form a continuous N-shaped structure, the plate main body 21 has some thickness and sufficient support force. After assembly, the through hole at the outermost end of the plate main body 21 is placed outside a limit ring 25 on the guide rod 23. Generally, the limit rings 25 are placed at two ends of the guide rod 23. The limit ring 25 is in damping fit with the guide rod 23 (the limit ring 25 may be made of a material having some elasticity, such as rubber), and the limit ring 25 can slide on the guide rod 23. Due to the limitation of the limit ring 25, the plate main body 21 is prevented from being folded inwards, so that the plate main body 21 can remain in a semi-unfolded state.

During transportation, the plate main body 21, the guide rod 23, and the shaping groove rail 22 are disassembled, and then the plate main body 21 is compressed, thereby reducing the packaging volume, which can greatly save transportation costs.

The flowerpot of the present disclosure achieves a reduction in transportation volume by using its detachable structure. No matter whether a single flowerpot is or a plurality of flowerpots are transported, the packaging volume during transportation can be reduced by disassembly and compression, thereby greatly reducing transportation costs.

The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present disclosure and are not intended to limit the implementation and protection scope of the present disclosure. Those skilled in the art should recognize that all solutions obtained by equivalent substitutions and obvious changes made using the description and illustrations of the present disclosure should fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.
