Abstract

A flower pot cover, made of a material which is closed upon itself and is elastically extensible to a limited degree in the circumferential direction owing to multiple-fold deformation, consists of a water-repellent paper. The multiple-fold deformation is formed by crimping instead of by pleating.

Description

Bekannte Topfmanschetten bestehen aus Kunststoff, und zwar üblicherweise aus einer plissierten PVC-Folie. Dies ist eine "normale" PVC-Folie, die wechselweise geknickt und aufeinandergelegt wird, um dann zu einem Ring zusammengefügt zu werden, der leicht gepannt um einen Blumentopf gelegt werden kann.Known pot sleeves are made of plastic, usually from a pleated PVC film. This is a "normal" PVC film, which is alternately folded and placed on top of one another, to then be put together to form a ring that can be easily stretched around a flowerpot.

Derartige Topfmanschetten werden derzeit angeboten, der Verkehr lehnt sie jedoch zunehmend als "unnatürlich" ab und sie stellen darüber hinaus nach Gebrauch ein Entsorgungsproblem dar.Such cuffs are currently on offer, but traffic is increasingly rejecting them as "unnatural" and they also pose a disposal problem after use.

Die Lösung des Problems besteht darin, gekrepptes, wasserabweisendes Papier zu nehmen (Anspruch 1). Statt der Plissierung bei Kunststoff wird jetzt ein Kreppen vorgenommen.The solution to the problem is to use creped, water-repellent paper (claim 1). Instead of pleating with plastic, creping is now carried out.

Es ist jedoch nicht möglich, einfach ein anderes Material zu benutzen. Problem ist nämlich, daß diese Topfmanschetten wasserabweisend sein müssen, da sie ansonsten bei einer Verwendung an einem Blumentopf schlicht ungeeignet sind.However, it is not possible to simply use a different material. The problem is that these pot cuffs have to be water-repellent, because otherwise they are simply unsuitable for use on a flower pot.

Es hat sich dabei vorteilhaft herausgestellt, daß bei richtiger Wahl der Parameter bei der Herstellung die Farbe des Papieres nicht ausfärbt, wenn sie nach der Herstellung noch feucht werden sollte.It has been found to be advantageous that if the parameters are correctly selected during production, the color of the paper will not color if it should still become moist after production.

Darüber hinaus ist die erfindungsgemäße Topfmanschette optisch besonders ansprechend. Aufgrund der wasserabweisenden Eigenschaften des unregelmäßig strukturierten gekreppten Papiers - auch einfarbig oder mehrfarbig - bleibt es lange Zeit ästhetisch ansprechend.In addition, the pot sleeve according to the invention is particularly visually appealing. Due to the water-repellent properties of the irregularly structured creped paper - also single-colored or multi-colored - it remains aesthetically appealing for a long time.

Mittig und/oder randseitig (zylindrisch) können Bahnen oder schmale Streifen vorgesehen sein, die - unterschiedlich bzw. dichter gekreppt - eine Federzugwirkung unterstützen. Die Tompfmanschette wird so betont wiederverwendbar.In the center and / or on the edge (cylindrical), webs or narrow strips can be provided which - differently or more creped - support a spring tension effect. The tump cuff is thus reusable.
