Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of kitchen utensils technology, and in particular to a combination tableware. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, tableware is usually stacked together, such as multiple bowls and plates, which are simply piled up in the cabinet. The bowls and plates cannot be combined, which takes up a lot of storage space in the kitchen and makes it difficult to stack them neatly and stably. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a combination tableware.

[0004] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a combination tableware, comprising a third plate, a soup bowl, a fruit plate, a second plate, and a first plate stacked sequentially from bottom to top, the outer contour of each component after stacking is approximately spherical; the lower part of the soup bowl is recessed inward to form a first annular groove, the upper edge of the rim of the third plate is embedded in the first annular groove and abuts against the top surface of the first annular groove; the lower side of the fruit plate is supported by the outer periphery of the rim of the soup bowl; the second plate is inverted on the fruit plate, its rim abutting against the outer periphery of the upper side of the fruit plate; the lower part of the second plate is recessed inward to form a second annular groove, the first plate is inverted on the bottom of the second plate, its rim abutting against the second annular groove and abutting against the top surface of the second annular groove.

[0005] This tableware set achieves compact storage of its components through a multi-layered stacking structure and a spherical outer contour, effectively saving storage space. A three-dimensional restraint system is formed between the components via annular grooves and the edge of the dish, or between the edges, enhancing stacking stability. The embedded fit between the annular grooves and the edge of the dish creates a double contact surface, ensuring vertical support while preventing component slippage through lateral constraints. The spherical shape not only enhances visual appeal but also optimizes stress distribution between components through curved surface contact.

[0006] The fruit plate has an annular flange on both its upper and lower sides. When stacked, the annular flange on the lower side of the fruit plate is located inside the soup bowl, and the annular flange on the upper side of the fruit plate is located inside the second plate. This double-sided annular flange design creates a precise radial positioning system, effectively controlling the concentricity deviation of the components and preventing the fruit plate from detaching from the soup bowl or the second plate.

[0007] The third plate is recessed inward from the bottom towards the rim to form a first arc-shaped depression. This first arc-shaped depression saves material, allows the third plate to be placed stably on a flat surface, and enhances its resistance to tipping.

[0008] The first plate has a second arc-shaped recess formed by an inward curve from the bottom towards the rim. This second arc-shaped recess saves material and allows the third plate to be placed stably on a flat surface, enhancing its resistance to tipping.

[0009] The third, second, and first plates are all made of 304 stainless steel.

[0010] The soup bowl is made of 304 stainless steel.

[0011] The fruit plate is made of 304 stainless steel.

[0012] The top surface and the side surface of the first annular groove form an obtuse angle, and the top surface and the side surface of the first annular groove are connected by a circular arc surface transition.

[0013] The top surface and the side surface of the second annular groove form an obtuse angle, and the top surface and the side surface of the second annular groove are connected by a circular arc surface transition.

[0014] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this utility model are as follows: This tableware achieves compact storage of tableware components through a multi-layered stacking structure and an outer spherical shape design, effectively saving storage space. A three-dimensional limiting system is formed between each component through a multi-point support structure between the annular groove and the edge of the dish, or between the edges, enhancing stacking stability. The embedded fit between the annular groove and the edge of the dish forms a double contact surface, ensuring vertical support while preventing component slippage through lateral constraints. The spherical shape not only enhances visual appeal but also optimizes stress distribution between components through curved surface contact. Each component can be disassembled individually for more thorough cleaning and to prevent stain residue. Made of 304 stainless steel, it boasts excellent performance, a smooth surface, and is not prone to dirt and bacteria adhesion. Attached Figure Description

[0023] Example

[0024] See Figures 1 to 6 This is a set of tableware, including a third plate 5, a soup bowl 4, a fruit plate 3, a second plate 2, and a first plate 1 stacked from bottom to top. The outer contour of each component after stacking is approximately spherical. The lower part of the soup bowl 4 is recessed inward to form a first annular groove 41. The upper edge of the rim of the third plate 5 is embedded in the first annular groove 41 and abuts against the top surface of the first annular groove 41. The lower outer periphery of the fruit plate 3 is supported by the rim of the soup bowl 4. The second plate 2 is inverted on the fruit plate 3, and its rim abuts against the upper outer periphery of the fruit plate 3. The lower part of the second plate 2 is recessed inward to form a second annular groove 21. The first plate 1 is inverted on the bottom of the second plate 2, and its rim abuts against the second annular groove 21 and abuts against the top surface of the second annular groove 21.

[0025] This tableware set achieves compact storage of its components through a multi-layered stacking structure and a spherical outer contour, effectively saving storage space. A three-dimensional restraint system with multiple support points between the components—either the annular grooves and the edge of the dish, or between the edges—enhances stacking stability. The embedded fit between the annular grooves and the edge of the dish creates a double contact surface, ensuring vertical support while preventing component slippage through lateral constraints. The spherical shape not only improves visual appeal but also optimizes stress distribution between components through curved surface contact.

[0026] The fruit plate 3 has an annular flange 31 on both its upper and lower sides. When stacked, the annular flange 31 on the lower side of the fruit plate 3 is located inside the soup bowl 4, and the annular flange 31 on the upper side of the fruit plate 3 is located inside the second plate 2. The double-sided annular flange 31 design creates a precise radial positioning system, effectively controlling the concentricity deviation of the components and preventing the fruit plate 3 from detaching from the soup bowl 4 or the second plate 2.

[0027] The third plate 5 is concave inward from the bottom towards the rim to form a first arc-shaped recess 51. The design of the first arc-shaped recess 51 saves material, allows the third plate 5 to be placed stably on a flat surface, and enhances its resistance to tipping.

[0028] The first plate 1 is concave inward from the bottom towards the rim to form a second arc-shaped recess 11. The design of the second arc-shaped recess 11 saves material and allows the third plate 5 to be placed stably on a flat surface, enhancing its resistance to tipping.

[0029] The third plate 5, the second plate 2, and the first plate 1 are all made of 304 stainless steel.

[0030] Soup bowl 4 is made of 304 stainless steel.

[0031] Fruit plate 3 is made of 304 stainless steel.

[0032] The top surface and the side surface of the first annular groove 41 form an obtuse angle, and the top surface and the side surface of the first annular groove 41 are connected by a circular arc surface transition.

[0033] The top surface and side surface of the second annular groove 21 form an obtuse angle, and the top surface and side surface of the second annular groove 21 are connected by a curved arc. The obtuse angle between the two annular grooves is 100-135 degrees.

[0034] This embodiment features a design that allows for disassembly into five components, enhancing the product's appeal and functionality to meet diverse user needs.

[0035] In this embodiment, the first plate 1 is a hemispherical plate with a spherical body, the second plate 2 is a round plate with a bowl-shaped body, the fruit plate 3 is a serving plate with annular flanges 31 on the top and bottom, and the third plate 5 is a hemispherical plate with a bottom. Each component has precise grooves and protrusions on its edges (annular grooves and the edge of the plate, the outer periphery of the fruit plate 3 and the edge of the bowl or plate), achieving a tight connection through a mortise and tenon joint-like structure. During assembly, the third plate 5 is placed on a flat surface, and the soup bowl 4, fruit plate 3, and second plate 2 are sequentially assembled around the third plate 5. Finally, the first plate 1 is placed on top to complete the spherical assembly. When used as tableware, the detachable components facilitate cleaning and storage, and different components can also be used as individual tableware. Clean promptly after use to avoid stains.

[0036] In terms of structural design, this embodiment features a groundbreaking five-component flexible combination mode, greatly enhancing the product's appeal and functional versatility. When used as a high-end decorative piece, users can freely change the component combinations according to their personal aesthetics and spatial layout, creating unique designs that add distinctive charm to home or office environments. For example, assembling different components at different angles can create a dynamic visual effect, fully satisfying consumers' pursuit of personalized decoration.

[0037] Because each component can be disassembled individually, stains have nowhere to hide, allowing for a more thorough cleaning. Furthermore, the components can be stacked or placed separately for storage; stacking effectively reduces storage space by up to 60%, providing a solution for the efficient use of limited kitchen space. In terms of material selection, 304 stainless steel's excellent corrosion resistance effectively resists acid and alkali corrosion from daily use, ensuring the product remains bright and new even after long-term use. In addition, 304 stainless steel boasts superior hygiene properties; its smooth surface does not easily attract dirt and bacteria.
