20090056216 | STAND FOR PLANTS OR THE LIKE - A support for plants pots is defined by a tubular post with a top plate engaging a ceiling surface and a bottom base member formed by two plates interconnected at right angles engaging a floor surface. A nut and screw threaded rod allow the post to be adjusted in length and a spring engages between the nut and the post to act as a force gauge to prevent over-tightening and to apply sufficient force for stability. Two collars are mounted on the post at spaced positions along the post for vertical and rotational adjustment each carrying a plurality of outwardly extending wire hangers. The post is formed of separate pieced connected end to end by a connector formed from two plates connected at right angles by inter-engaging slots to form a longer leg which is a sliding fit and a shorter leg which is a press fit. | 03-05-2009 |

20100050511 | Hanging plant saucer - A one-piece molded hanging plant saucer includes three pairs of opposed hook arms connected to a bowl-shaped base. Each pair of hook arms is formed by the frictional interengagement of two arms extending vertically from a living hinge formed at an extension of a generally circular planar lip extending outwardly around the upper periphery of the base. Each pair of interconnected hook arms provides a double thickness of material to increase strength of support for the hanging plant saucer. As manufactured in the molded condition, the hook arms are generally co-planar with the planar lip so that multiple saucers are readily stackable. | 03-04-2010 |
20100058659 | Plant management device and method - A small and compact, easy-to-use soil moisture management device is disclosed that is economical to produce, efficient to use, has a scientific measurement system and is easy for the user to read the moisture needs of a plant in a hanging container. The device includes a housing that is attached at one end to hardware for supporting the device and a hanging basket that contains a plant in soil and moisture in varying amounts in the soil. The device also includes a moving member that is biased by a spring against the gravitational pull on the hanging basket, plant, soil and moisture. The spring and a portion of the moving member is contained in the housing. The moving member also contains visual indicators of the position of the moving member against the bias provided by the spring to indicate the amount of moisture in the soil. In the method, an eyebolt that supports the hanging basket, soil, plant and moisture is capable of moving against a bias against the gravitational pull on the hanging basket, soil, plant and variable amount of moisture and, by the movement of the eyebolt, visually indicating the position of the eyebolt against the bias so that a first amount of moisture in the soil produces a first position of the eyebolt and a second amount of moisture produces a second position of the eyebolt. | 03-11-2010 |
20100287832 | Hanging planter - A planter capable of being hung from an elevated support includes an open-topped container for containing dirt or potting soil placed therein and a plurality of suspension elements, or cords, which are disposed about and are attached to or act upon the container for suspending the container from an elevated support. The suspension elements extend upwardly from the peripheral edge of the container top and are joined together at a common point disposed above the container for suspension of the planter from the elevated support. In addition, a spacer member is arranged and spaced above the top of the container and cooperates with the suspension elements for preventing the suspension cords from converging toward one another for a distance above the container which corresponds with the spaced distance between the container top and the spacer member. | 11-18-2010 |
20100293852 | COLLAPSIBLE DEVICE FOR PLANT TRANSPORT AND STORAGE - The plant transport and storage device is useful for moving and storing a plurality of plants. The device is capable of rapid and assembly and collapse. The device has a base support member, a base beam, a vertical support, and a plant support. Optionally, the device includes a lift and selective height adjustment. | 11-25-2010 |
20130014438 | HANGING FLOWERPOT STRUCTUREAANM TENG; Po AnAACI ShenzhenAACO CNAAGP TENG; Po An Shenzhen CN - A hanging flowerpot structure includes a flowerpot body which has an engaging seat at one side wall and an engaging post at an opposing side wall. Through engagement of the engaging seats and the engaging posts of a plurality of flowerpot bodies, the flowerpot bodies can be connected steady. A hook lug of a rear wall of the flowerpot body is used to hook a wall. An automatic watering hose is engaged in engaging recesses of the two side walls of the flowerpot body to guide water into the flowerpot body. The excess water is drained from a drain hole of a bottom of the flowerpot body to the lower flowerpot body to save water. The present invention is convenient for use and stable in configuration. | 01-17-2013 |
20130067811 | PLANT CONTAINER SYSTEM AND METHOD - A container system providing ideal watering and aeration conditions for growing plants comprises a tray having a bottom surface. An insert with an upper surface and a lower surface is placed in the tray forming an upper space above the insert for the addition of a growth medium, and a lower space below the insert forming a water reservoir. One or more perforated baskets extending from the lower surface of the insert and into the water reservoir draw water from the reservoir and into the growth medium. At least one aperture in the insert is coupled to a perforated post to provide air circulation to the growth medium. A port may be provided through the insert enabling an inverted water vessel to be coupled to the port to provide water to the water reservoir. The various components may be provided in the form of a kit assembled by a user. | 03-21-2013 |
