Apparatus for hanging of a plant inside of a vase or pot

Abstract

An apparatus for the hanging of a small potted plant inside of a larger pot or a vase is provided. The apparatus has a plurality of adjustable horizontal arms which both rotate and telescopingly extend. The plurality of adjustable horizontal arms are secured to the underside of a main securing base which holds the smaller potted plant. Vertical securing arms with hooks are secured around the top rim/lip of the larger pot or vase.

I claim: 
     
         1 ) An apparatus for the hanging of a plant within a vase or pot comprising:
 a main securing base having a top and a bottom;   a first horizontal arm located under the main securing base;   a second horizontal arm located under the main securing base;   a first vertical securing arm having a top and a bottom;   a second vertical securing arm having a top and a bottom; and   a first securing mechanism attached to the first vertical securing arm and a second securing mechanism attached to the second vertical securing arm wherein the first and the second securing mechanism are temporarily secured to a vase or pot.   
     
     
         2 ) The apparatus for the hanging of a plant within a vase or pot of  claim 1  wherein the first horizontal arm has a length and wherein the length of the first horizontal arm is adjustable. 
     
     
         3 ) The apparatus for the hanging of a plant within a vase or pot of  claim 1  wherein the second horizontal arm has a length and wherein the length of the second horizontal arm is adjustable. 
     
     
         4 ) The apparatus for the hanging of a plant within a vase or pot of  claim 1  wherein the first and the second securing mechanism of the first vertical securing arm and the second vertical securing arm are hooks. 
     
     
         5 ) The apparatus for the hanging of a plant within a vase or pot of  claim 1  wherein the first vertical securing arm and the second vertical securing arm are made of beads. 
     
     
         6 ) The apparatus for the hanging of a plant within a vase or pot of  claim 5  wherein the beads of the first vertical securing arm and the beads of the second vertical securing arm are secured within an opening slot of the first horizontal arm and the second horizontal arm. 
     
     
         7 ) The apparatus for the hanging of a plant within a vase or pot of  claim 1  further comprising:
 an opening in the main securing base wherein the opening of the main securing base receives a pin and wherein the pin secures the main securing base to the first horizontal arm and to the second horizontal arm. 
 
     
     
         8 ) The apparatus for the hanging of a plant within a vase or pot of  claim 1  further comprising:
 an opening in the first securing mechanism and an opening in the second securing mechanism wherein the opening of the first securing mechanism and the opening of the second securing mechanism each receive a pin and wherein the pin secures the securing mechanisms to a rim of the vase or pot. 
 
     
     
         9 ) The apparatus for the hanging of a plant within a vase or pot of  claim 1  wherein the first horizontal arm and the second horizontal arm rotate from a perpendicular orientation to a non-perpendicular orientation. 
     
     
         10 ) The apparatus for the hanging of a plant within a vase or pot of  claim 1  further comprising:
 a first unit of the first horizontal arm and a second unit of the first horizontal arm. 
 
     
     
         11 ) The apparatus for the hanging of a plant within a vase or pot of  claim 10  further comprising:
 an extended rectangular protrusion of the first unit of the first horizontal arm; and 
 an elongated slot of the second unit of the first horizontal arm wherein the extended rectangular protrusion of the first unit of the first horizontal arm is locked into the elongated slot of the second unit of the first horizontal arm in a first orientation and not locked into the elongated slot of the second unit of the first horizontal arm in the second orientation. 
 
     
     
         12 ) The apparatus for the hanging of a plant within a vase or pot of  claim 11  wherein an overall length of the first horizontal arm is adjusted by sliding the extended rectangular protrusion of the first unit within the elongated slot of the second unit of the first horizontal arm. 
     
     
         13 ) The apparatus for the hanging of a plant within a vase or pot of  claim 1  further comprising:
 a locking mechanism located under the main securing base wherein the locking mechanism locks the first horizontal arm with respect to the second horizontal arm. 
 
     
     
         14 ) The apparatus for the hanging of a plant within a vase or pot of  claim 1  wherein the main securing base is circular. 
     
     
         15 ) The apparatus for the hanging of a plant within a vase or pot of  claim 7  wherein the pin has a head and wherein the head of the pin rests flush with the top of the main securing base.
