Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a flower stand for use in front of a grave or the like, and more particularly to a flower stand with an opening / closing lid attached to an upper opening.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventional flower stands are shown in FIGS. In this flower stand 1 ', an opening 3 into which a flower or the like is inserted is formed above a vertically elongated metal tube portion 2, and a flange portion 6 is formed around the opening portion 3. When such a flower stand 1'is used, it is inserted into the hole D formed in the step C of the stone stepped flower stand B for a grave as shown in FIGS. The collar portion 6 closes the gap between the hole D and the periphery of the flower stand 1 '.
Then, water or the like is inserted into the inside of the tubular portion 2 to insert the flower A or the like.
In the conventional example shown in FIG. 17, another collar portion 6a is formed around the opening 3 above the tubular portion 2 and below the opening 3 for decoration, and is fixed above the tombstone or pedestal E with an adhesive or the like. To use.

[0003]

However, according to the above-mentioned conventional flowering, since the upper opening 3 is left open, when it is not used, other than the tray, the end of the year, the Higashi coast, etc. There are problems that the accumulated rainwater and the like decomposes to generate a foul odor, and mosquito eggs are spawned, which becomes a source of mosquitoes.

[0004]

The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and the means therefor are as follows.
An opening / closing lid that opens and closes an opening above the tubular portion is attached to the upper portion of the tubular portion for storing flowers and the like. Further, the opening / closing lid is configured to open on both sides. Furthermore, a pattern or the like is displayed on the front surface and / or the back surface of the opening / closing lid. Further, a regulating member is provided on the back surface of the opening / closing lid so as to face the inner peripheral surface above the tubular portion.

[0005]

According to the above-mentioned means, since the opening / closing lid for opening / closing the opening above the tubular portion is attached, the opening / closing lid is kept when not in use so that rainwater or the like can be put inside the tubular portion. It is possible to prevent the invasion of harmful insects such as mosquitoes and to prevent the generation of bad odors and harmful insects such as mosquitoes. Also, if the opening / closing lid is opened on both sides, the opening / closing lid will pinch the flowers and the like from both sides when offering flowers, which is excellent in appearance. Furthermore, if a pattern or the like is displayed on the front surface and / or the back surface of the opening / closing lid, a larger aesthetic and decorative effect is produced. Further, if a regulating member is provided on the back surface of the opening / closing lid so as to face the inner peripheral surface above the tubular portion, the opening / closing lid is guided when closing the opening of the tubular portion, so that sealing can be performed easily and reliably.

[0006]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. Incidentally, the same components as those of the conventional one are designated by the same reference numerals and the description thereof will be omitted.

As shown in FIGS. 1 to 10, the flower stand 1 of this embodiment is provided with an opening / closing lid 4 for opening / closing an upper opening 3 of a long cylinder 2 for containing water or flowers A. It is attached above 2.

As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the opening / closing lid 4 above the tubular portion 2 is attached to the tubular portion 2 by a substantially L-shaped fitting 5 fixed to the rear surface of the peripheral edge of the opening / closing lid 4. The locking tool 8 is inserted into the mounting hole 7 formed in the flange portion 6 and formed in a ring shape so that the mounting tool 5 does not come out of the mounting hole 7, and is attached to the tip of the mounting tool 5. However, the attachment of the tubular portion 2 and the opening / closing lid 4 is not limited to this embodiment because it can be attached by a hinge or other means.

The material of the opening / closing lid 4 is preferably the same as the material of the tubular portion 2, but may be different. A preferred example is one in which both the tubular portion 2 and the opening / closing lid 4 are made of rust-resistant stainless steel, but they may be made of other materials such as synthetic resin and are not particularly limited.

The shape of the opening / closing lid 4 may be any shape as long as it can openably and closably close the opening 3 of the tubular portion 2, and as shown in FIG. 6, for example. Even if the two semi-circular opening / closing lids 4 are opened in mutually different directions, the central portion bulges in a convex shape in order to obtain a design effect of the outer shape as shown in FIG. However, as shown in FIG. 8, the collar portion 6
The peripheral portion may be bent along the curved line.

Further, as shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, a restricting member 9 is provided on the back surface of the opening / closing lid 4 so as to face the inner peripheral surface above the tubular portion 2, so that the opening / closing lid 4 is attached to the tubular portion 2. The opening cover 3 may be easily accommodated in the opening 3 above and the opening / closing lid 4 may not be laterally displaced.

Further, as shown in FIG. 11, various patterns, patterns such as family crests, patterns 10 such as characters such as the owner's house name may be displayed on the front and back surfaces of the opening / closing lid 4. As a method of this display, it may be written with a brush using a paint, or may be marked and printed on irregularities. Furthermore, these patterns 1
Color may be used for 0.

Further, in order to ensure that rainwater and the like enter the tubular portion 2, as shown in FIG. 12, the rear surface of the opening / closing lid 4 that comes into contact with the flange 6 of the opening 3 of the tubular portion 2 or the like. Alternatively, the packing material 11 may be fixed.

In the case of using the flower stand 1 of this embodiment having the above-mentioned structure, as shown in FIG.
It suffices to pivot the mounting fixture 5 upward to open the opening 3 and then pour water and insert the flower A or the like. If the open / close lid 4 is positioned behind the flower A,
It is hard to see the grave attendant and does not get in the way. In the case of the folding lid 4 that is folded in two, flowers A etc.
May be inserted into the tubular portion 2. When the pattern 10 is displayed on the back surface of the opening / closing lid 4, it is preferable that the flowers A can be seen by the grave attendant immediately before the insertion. After use, it suffices to remove the flower A or the like from the tubular portion 2 to drain the water, and then close the opening 3 with the opening / closing lid 4. Further, since the opening / closing lid 4 is closed even if there is some water, the generation of harmful insects can be prevented.

[0015]

As is apparent from the above description, the flower stand of the present invention is provided with the opening / closing lid for opening and closing the opening above the tubular portion so that the opening can be closed when not in use. By setting it, rainwater and the like will not invade, and therefore, the rotting odor of water and the generation of harmful insects such as mosquitoes can be prevented, and the graveyard and the like can be maintained cleanly. Further, even when used indoors, dust and dirt do not enter, so that the inside of the tubular portion can be kept clean. Furthermore, since the opening / closing lid is attached to the tubular portion, it is possible to prevent the opening / closing lid from being lost.

When the opening / closing lid is constructed so as to open on both sides, the appearance is excellent, and it is difficult for the flower or the like to be caught by the two opening / closing lids and break.

When a pattern or the like is displayed on the front surface or the back surface of the opening / closing lid, a decorative effect can be obtained.

Furthermore, in the case where a regulating member is provided on the surface of the opening / closing lid so as to face the inner peripheral surface above the tubular portion, the opening / closing lid is easily guided because it is guided when the opening of the tubular portion is closed. Can be reliably sealed.
