Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of wine glass support racks, specifically a double-helix structure wine glass rack. Background Technology

[0002] Stemmed wine glasses are beloved by consumers for their elegant design and unique user experience. However, existing stemmed wine glass racks often fail to meet their specific storage needs, with most solutions still employing a traditional side-by-side arrangement. For example:

[0003] Chinese Patent Publication No. CN222583982U discloses a wine glass storage rack and storage device, including a support surface and supporting surfaces opposite to each other on the bottom sides of the support surface. The support surface and the supporting surfaces form a receiving groove, one end of which has an insertion port. A preset distance is provided between the two supporting surfaces. A plurality of supporting members are spaced apart along the length of the top of the receiving groove. Each supporting member has a fixed end connected to the support surface and a free end extending obliquely downward from the fixed end toward the end opposite to the insertion port. A slot for supporting the stem of a wine glass is formed between the supporting member and the support surface. One end of the stem of the wine glass is inserted into the slot formed between the supporting member and the support surface. When the wine glass is released, the opposite end of the stem will tilt downward under the action of the wine glass's own weight and be supported on the supporting surfaces on both sides, thus forming an inclined placement state with one end higher than the other.

[0004] The most prominent drawback of this side-by-side arrangement is its extremely low space utilization. Due to the slender stems and shape of the wine glasses, placing them side-by-side wastes a significant amount of vertical and horizontal space, resulting in a very limited number of glasses that can be placed per unit area.

[0005] The information disclosed in this background section is intended only to enhance the understanding of the overall background of this utility model and should not be construed as an admission or in any way implying that the information constitutes prior art known to those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content

[0006] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the above-mentioned problems and provide a double-helix structure wine glass holder.

[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution provided by this utility model is: a double-helix structure wine glass holder, comprising:

[0008] Two parallel bases;

[0009] A double-helix load-bearing assembly is disposed between two bases and includes two spiral frames extending in a spatial spiral and a plurality of support rods spaced apart along the axial direction of the spiral frames. The support rods connect the two spiral frames so that the two spiral frames form an intertwined double-helix topology.

[0010] Several wine glass holders, each including a glass holder for supporting a wine glass and a connecting rod for connecting the glass holder to a screw base.

[0011] As an improvement, the ratio of the number of support rods to the number of wine glass holders is 1:2, and each support rod corresponds to two wine glass holders that are centrally symmetrically distributed.

[0012] As an improvement, the support rod is an axially through hollow tube, and multiple through holes are opened on both of the spiral frames, the number and position of which correspond to the support rod. The through holes on the two spiral frames are connected to the corresponding support rods.

[0013] As an improvement, the connecting rod is inserted into the through hole and the support rod in sequence, and the connecting rod is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the through hole.

[0014] The advantages of this utility model compared with the prior art are as follows:

[0015] This invention innovatively achieves a three-dimensional suspension layout for wine glasses by setting a DNA-like double helix topology. This structure not only makes full use of vertical space, significantly increasing the number of wine glasses that can be suspended per unit projected area, but also has a stable structure, elegant appearance, and makes it convenient for users to put away and retrieve the wine glasses.

[0024] The following will refer to the appendix in the embodiments of this utility model. Figure 1 To the attached Figure 5 As shown, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model are clearly and completely described. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0025] Example 1:

[0026] This utility model provides a double helix structure wine glass holder, including a pair of bases 1, a double helix support assembly and several wine glass holders.

[0027] The two bases 1 adopt a symmetrical and parallel disc structure, which is connected by a double helix support assembly. Several wine glass holders are set on the double helix support assembly for hanging stemmed wine glasses.

[0028] Specifically, the double helix support assembly includes two spiral frames 2 that extend spatially with the same pitch. The top and bottom ends of the spiral frames 2 are fixedly connected to the corresponding bases 1. Hollow tubular support rods 3 are distributed at equal intervals between the double helix frames 2. The two ends of each support rod 3 are fixedly connected to the corresponding winding points of the two spiral frames 2. The structure is similar to a DNA double helix formed by the support rods 3 and the two spiral frames 2.

[0029] Each spiral frame 2 has a through hole 6 on its outer wall along the spiral trajectory. The axial position of the through hole 6 corresponds precisely to the installation point of the corresponding support rod 3, forming a continuous channel that runs through the two spiral frames 2.

[0030] In addition, the wine glass holder includes a glass holder 4 for supporting the wine glass and a connecting rod 5. The glass holder 4 is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting rod 5. The end of the connecting rod 5 away from the glass holder 4 is inserted into the corresponding through hole 6 and the support rod 3 in sequence, and the outer wall of the connecting rod 5 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the through hole 6.

[0031] It should be explained that the ratio of the number of wine glass holders to the number of support rods 3 is 2:1. That is to say, there are two wine glass holders on one support rod 3, and the two wine glass holders are symmetrical.

[0032] Therefore, in this embodiment, during the specific implementation process, the operator inverts the stemmed glass so that the neck of the glass is embedded in the limiting groove of the glass holder 4. Due to the axial fixing effect of the connecting rod 5 and the support of the support rod 3, the weight of the wine glass is evenly transmitted to the bottom base 1 through the double helix structure, ensuring overall stability while supporting the stemmed wine glass. In addition, compared with the prior art, the spatial spiral double helix topology structure allows for the suspension of more stemmed glasses in the same space or plane.

[0033] Example 2:

[0034] In Embodiment 1, there is a risk of the frame tipping over due to an unstable center of gravity. Therefore, to avoid this, Embodiment 2 is proposed. In Embodiment 2, the bottom base 1 is cast from a high-density lead alloy, while the top base 1 is made of low-density ABS plastic. This optimizes the center of gravity of the equipment. Furthermore, a ring-shaped silicone anti-slip pad is fixedly connected to the bottom of the lower base 1. All these measures reduce the risk of tipping over.

[0035] Example 3:

[0036] The structure of the cup holder 4 is further elaborated, explaining the specific principle by which it can suspend a stemmed glass. This utility model also provides embodiment three.

[0037] In this third embodiment, the cup holder 4 has an ohmic cross-sectional shape and is made of polyethylene, with a 15° guide slope at the opening. It should be noted that the opening of the cup holder 4 is angled upwards, and the opening size is 3 mm smaller than the neck of a standard stemmed glass, fitting a standard stemmed glass model 7087.

[0038] In conjunction with Embodiment 1, in this Embodiment 3, the stemmed glass is inverted, and then the neck of the glass is pressed into the limiting groove of the ohmic cup holder 4. It should be understood that, since the cup holder 4 is made of polyethylene, it can undergo a certain degree of elastic deformation under the influence of external force. Next, the base of the stemmed glass is placed against the top of the cup holder 4, thus completing the stable fixation of the stemmed glass by the cup holder 4.

[0039] The present invention and its embodiments have been described above. This description is not restrictive, and the accompanying drawings are only one embodiment of the present invention; the actual structure is not limited thereto. In conclusion, if those skilled in the art are inspired by this description and design similar structures and embodiments without departing from the inventive spirit of the present invention, such designs should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0040] The detailed description of known functions and components is omitted in this disclosure. To ensure the compatibility of the equipment, the operating methods used are consistent with the parameters of commercially available instruments.
