Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To readily make environment of the same degree as culturing a potted plant weak to the cold in a greenhouse by a simple device. SOLUTION: This device has an electric type constant temperature heater 5 and a heat insulating material 4 outside a pot 3 of a potted plant 1 weak to the cold, and an electric power is supplied to the heater 5 by an electric code 8 with a plug socket to warm roots of the plant 1 and soil 2 to a temperature higher than a necessary lower limit temperature, then the temperature is insulated.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method of heating a root of a plant 1 and soil 2 from outside a pot 3 of a potted plant 1 by using a constant temperature heater 5 and a heat insulating material
And a device for warming and keeping warm.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art There are potted plants that cannot withstand cold and die when the temperature falls below the minimum temperature required for plants, such as winter. Conventionally, at this time, such potted plants are generally cultivated in a greenhouse. This is because the greenhouse shines light on the plants, sometimes ventilates them, and maintains the room temperature necessary for the plants. However, a greenhouse is exposed to light and ventilated, so that the installation place is limited, and a device for accommodating a potted plant also becomes large. Maintaining the greenhouse temperature at a predetermined temperature is not easy because low-temperature outside air is transmitted from the peripheral wall of the apparatus or penetrates through gaps. In addition, indoor heating has many disadvantages such as low conduction efficiency due to gas heat conduction.

[0003]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks, and an object of the present invention is to easily create an environment equivalent to cultivating a potted plant in a greenhouse. . Lights hit the plants in the greenhouse and sometimes ventilate,
Place potted plants near windows or similar environment in ordinary dwellings, replace with light from windows and ventilation by opening and closing windows, and maintain the temperature required for greenhouse plants from outside the pots of potted plants by electric system The roots and soil of the plant are warmed to above the minimum temperature required by the plant with a constant temperature heater, and the temperature is maintained to substitute. 1 and 2, the electric constant temperature heater 5 is fixed to the heat insulating material 4 with the attaching tool 6 and attached with the attaching / detaching instrument 7 outside the pot 3 of the potted plant 1. Then, power is supplied by an electric cord 8 with an outlet and the root of the potted plant 1 and the soil 2
A device that can create an environment similar to that of maintaining the temperature of a greenhouse by heating and maintaining the temperature above the minimum required temperature of the plant 1.
FIG. 3 and FIG. 4 show that electric power is supplied to the heater 5 of the flowerpot in which the electric constant temperature heater 5 is embedded and integrated between the outside of the pot 3 of the potted plant 1 and the heat insulator 4 by an electric cord 8 with an outlet. A device that warms and keeps warm. In addition, the electric system part of this device is made simple waterproof.

[0004]

[Functions and effects] At the time of low temperature such as winter, place the potted plant with the device shown in Figs. 1 and 2 outside the potted plant, or place the potted plant using the device shown in Figs. 3 and 4 near the window in the house. By supplying electric power to the heater of the device and warming the roots and soil of the plants above the lower limit temperature and keeping the temperature, an environment similar to that of a greenhouse is created, and plants that are vulnerable to cold can be easily cultivated without a greenhouse. On the other hand, in the greenhouse cultivation of the potted plant, since the potted plant is put in the greenhouse, the apparatus becomes large. The place where the greenhouse is installed is also limited by the place where light hits and ventilation. The place for placing the potted plant using this device can be easily secured near a window in a general house. The size of the equipment is smaller than the greenhouse,
Temperature control is not required because a constant temperature heater is used. Heating from the outside of the pot of the potted plant has good conduction efficiency due to solid heat conduction. The effect of using this device is that it does not specify the location of plants that are vulnerable to cold as in greenhouse cultivation, the size of the device is small, temperature and ventilation control are almost unnecessary, and the device is mounted outside the pots of potted plants and heated. It is simple and easy to use, such as only supplying power to the container.
