Pot plant stand with air cleaning function and plant pot for the stand

Abstract

This invention relates to a pot plant stand which purifies the air by passing the air through soil holding a plant root and an exchangeable plant pot used for the stand. The pot plant stand having an air cleaning function, which can exchange the plant pot without grubbing up the soil, which can cause a large quantity of air to pass through the soil, and which is easy to maintain is obtained. The pot plant stand includes: a water container storing water in a bottom; a plant pot inserted into the water container; and a fan absorbing the air in an upper space between the water container and the plant pot, and the plant pot includes: a partition wall dividing an interior of the plant pot into a planting section and a vent section at a height position lower than an outer wall of the plant pot, and having no air permeability; an air hole communicating the vent section with the upper space at a position lower than an upper edge of this partition wall and higher than the water level of the water stored in the water container; and water holes communicating the planting section, the vent section and the bottom of the water container with one another at a position lower than the water level of the water stored in the water container.

1 . A pot plant stand having an air cleaning function, the pot plant stand comprising: a water container storing water in a bottom; a plant pot inserted into the water container while closing an upper surface opening of the water container; and a fan absorbing the air in an upper space formed between the water container and the plant pot, wherein the plant pot comprises: a partition wall dividing an interior of the plant pot into a planting section and a vent section at a height position lower than an outer wall of the plant pot, and having no air permeability; an air hole communicating the vent section with the upper space at a position lower than an upper edge of the partition wall and higher than water level of the water stored in the water container; and water holes communicating the planting section, the vent section and the bottom of the water container with one another at a position lower than the water level of the water stored in the water container.  
     
     
         2 . A pot plant stand having an air cleaning function, the pot plant stand comprising: a water container storing water in a bottom; a plant pot supported by the water container while dipping a bottom of the plant pot with the water stored in the water container and closing an upper surface opening of the water container; and a fan communicated with an upper space of the water container, characterized in that the plant pot comprises: a partition wall dividing an interior of the plant pot into a planting section and a vent section, and having no air permeability; a water hole communicating the planting section with the bottom of the water container under a water surface of the water stored in the water container; communication holes communicating the planting section with the vent section under the water surface; and an air hole formed at a position right on the water surface of the water stored in the water container, and communicating the vent section with the upper space of the water container, in that each of the vent hole and the air hole comprises protection means for protecting leakage of soil in the plant pot, and in that the planting section and the vent section of the plant pot are filled with the soil.  
     
     
         3 . A plant pot for a pot plant stand having an air cleaning function, the plant pot comprising: a partition wall dividing an interior of the plant pot into a central planting section and a surrounding vent section at a height position lower than an outer wall, and having no air permeability; an air hole penetrating the outer wall at a position lower than an upper edge of the partition wall; and water holes penetrating a base plate of the plant pot, a bottom of the partition wall and/or a bottom of the outer wall to thereby communicate the planting section, the vent section and an exterior of the plant pot with one another at a position lower than the vent hole.  
     
     
         4 . A plant pot for a pot plant stand having an air cleaning function, the plant pot comprising: a partition wall dividing an interior of the plant pot into a planting section and a vent section, and having no air permeability; a water hole penetrating a base plate of the planting section; water holes communicating the planting section with the vent section on a bottom of the plant pot; and an air hole communicating the vent section with an exterior of the plant pot at a position higher than the water holes, characterized in that the planting section and the vent section of the plant pot are filled with soil.
