In actual application, the turntable is placed on the dining table, and then the glass for holding dishes is placed on the turntable. When dining, the motor is used to drive the gear ring body 300 in the turntable to rotate. During the rotation process, the gear ring body 300 also drives the top cover 200 to rotate, thereby realizing the rotation of the glass.
