Description

[0001] The present invention relates to a water-sensitive flowerpot which changes color when the moisture in the soil is insufficient,

The present invention relates to a moisture-sensing pot that changes color when the moisture in the soil is insufficient. More particularly, the present invention relates to a moisture-sensing pot that changes color depending on the presence or absence of moisture. Lt; RTI ID = 0.0 > pollen < / RTI >

You can see a lot of pollen if you look around closely. The number of plants growing in flowerpots and the number of plants cultivated in large flower parks and the plants used for flower distribution have been increasingly diversified. In the preceding article KR10-2013-0065530, The water content is indicated by the moisture sensor.

However, it is becoming increasingly difficult for growers who grow plants according to various and enormous horticultural activities to understand the plant species and the timing of watering according to each plant. Also, in the prior art, the use of a moisture sensor with moisture sensing capability can be a significant cost burden.

Disclosure of Invention Technical Problem [8] Accordingly, the present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a moisture-sensing flower pot whose color changes when the moisture in the soil is insufficient to change the color of the flower pot according to the presence or absence of moisture in the soil of the flower pot will be.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a moisture-sensing flower pot whose color changes when the moisture in the soil is insufficient, which can be made inexpensively in a pot for sensing moisture using a conventional moisture sensor.

The present invention relates to a moisture-sensing flower pot whose color changes when water in the soil is insufficient for the above purpose, characterized in that it comprises a reverse trapezoidal outer wall capable of containing soil, and a display membrane having moisture- It is a moisture-sensing pollen that changes color when the moisture in the soil is insufficient.

The moisture-sensing function of the moisture-sensing display element of the present invention is characterized in that the color of the moisture-sensing display element changes depending on the absence of water in the soil. The moisture-sensing display element includes cobalt chloride having a property of changing color depending on presence or absence of moisture.

The moisture-sensing function of the moisture-sensing display element of the present invention is characterized in that the color of the moisture-sensing display element changes depending on the lack of moisture in the soil. The moisture-sensing display element includes cobalt sulfate having a property of changing color depending on the presence or absence of water.

The present invention is characterized in that the color of the moisture-sensing flower of which the color changes when the moisture in the soil is insufficient is composed of a moisture absorbing part, an outer wall and a display film which are easily adhered to the inside of the display film.

The moisture-sensing display film having a moisture-sensitive function is a silica gel having a property of changing color and a water absorption rate depending on the presence or absence of water, Wherein the color of the soil is changed when the moisture in the soil is insufficient.

The effect of the present invention can be efficiently managed since it is divided into changes in outer wall color when the pollen is checked to determine whether or not water is supplied to the pollen.

Another effect of the present invention is that the material to be moisture sensed is economical due to the material that can be easily produced.

Fig. 1 is a diagram showing the constitution when the water content of the pollen according to the present invention is sufficient
Fig. 2 is a diagram showing the composition when the pollen of the present invention is inadequate
Fig. 3 is a diagram showing the configuration of pots including the water-absorbing portion according to the present invention

Although the preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, it should be understood that the terminology used in the present invention selects general terms that are widely used as far as possible, It is to be understood that the present invention should be understood by the meaning of the term not being the name of a simple term since the meaning is described in detail in the description part of the present invention. The description of the technical content which is well known in the art to which it belongs and which is not directly related to the present invention will be omitted. This is for the sake of clarity of the present invention without omitting the unnecessary explanation.

Fig. 1 is a diagram showing a constitution when the water content of the pollen according to the present invention is sufficient.

Referring to FIG. 3, the present invention is largely composed of an outer wall 1, a display film 2, and a water absorbing portion 3.

The outer wall should have a property that it can have a transparent color and is not easily broken by a small impact. The most common is plastic. Glass is a very good material with a transparent color, but it is not suitable because it can easily break even with a small impact. In general, porcelain materials made of baked earth are not suitable because they are difficult to make transparent and can be easily broken by mistake. The use of rubber-like materials in small pots can be very effective in plant storage if the plant size is small. But making transparency is not that hard.

The display film should have a property of absorbing a little moisture and changing its color if the water is nearby. The most easily conceivable is cobalt chloride. Cobalt chloride is blue when there is no water, but turns red when it absorbs water. In addition, cobalt sulfate and other materials that have the property of changing color when water comes in contact are possible.

The water absorbing part should have a property of being easily absorbed when there is moisture in the surroundings. And you should also be able to make the shoulders within 3mm. If the diameter exceeds 3 mm, the moisture absorption part of the pollen may take up too much volume, which may cause the pollen to absorb moisture in the soil more than necessary. The material is calcium chloride, which is widely used in daily life. Any material with a good water absorption rate is acceptable.

1 is a view showing a case where water is sufficiently contained in the soil when a display film is formed using cobalt chloride. The display part of the flowerpot turns red.

Fig. 2 is a view showing the case where moisture is not enough in the soil when a display film is formed using cobalt chloride. Fig. The display portion of the flowerpot turns blue.

FIG. 3 is a view showing a state in which moisture is absorptively absorbed in FIGS. 1 and 2, thereby making it easier to determine the presence or absence of moisture. The display film is made of a material whose color changes according to moisture absorption such as cobalt chloride or cobalt sulfate, and the water absorption part is made of a material having a good water absorption rate.

To use the display film and the water absorbing portion together at once, silica gel may be used. The original silica gel is a transparent color, but it is widely used in everyday life to make the silica gel color change noticeable by mixing a little cobalt chloride. Using the silica gel of this nature, the display film and the moisture indicator can be combined into one.

Fig. 1 is a view showing a case in which water is sufficiently contained in the soil when a display film is formed using silica gel (a little cobalt chloride is mixed). The display part of the flowerpot turns red.

Fig. 2 is a view showing a case where moisture is not enough in the soil when a display film is formed using silica gel (a little cobalt chloride is mixed). The display portion of the flowerpot turns blue.

While the present invention has been described with reference to the exemplary embodiments, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited to the disclosed exemplary embodiments. Therefore, the examples disclosed in the present invention are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention but to illustrate the present invention.

The scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. The scope of protection of the present invention should be construed according to the following claims, and all technical ideas within the scope of equivalents should be construed as falling within the scope of the present invention.
