Wheeled flowerpot assembly

US-7908794-B2

Abstract

A flower pot assembly including at least one axle and two wheels near a lower region of a pot-shaped element. The axle is located from the bottom of the pot by a distance greater than the radius of the wheels such that the wheels are not in contact with the surface on which the assembly rests. Tipping of the flowerpot assembly brings the wheels into contact with the surface, and further tipping frees the bottom of the pot from contact with the surface. In this attitude, the assembly may be readily wheeled to a new location. A vertical handle, preferably detachable, is attached to a side above the axle to facilitate tipping and moving. The element may be cylindrical, conical, rectangular, or any other convenient shape. Preferably, the element is tapered to facilitate stacking of pots without wheels for shipping and storage.
