Description

Technical area

[0001] The invention relates to a holding device (100) for holding an egg, in particular a boiled breakfast egg. The holding device consists of several, preferably flat elements that are connected to one another exclusively by form-fitting and / or clamping connections. The invention particularly relates to a design in which three individual wooden parts are assembled without adhesive or other connecting means to form a stable egg holder. State of the art

[0002] Plug-in egg holders are known from the state of the art, for example, wooden egg holders with decorative animal motifs. However, such devices often consist of more than three individual parts, lack stability when assembled, or require additional fasteners such as adhesive to prevent them from falling apart. These disadvantages negatively impact the handling, reusability, and sustainability of the products. Object of the invention

[0003] The invention is based on the object of providing a stable, easy-to-assemble, and functional holding device (100) that requires few individual parts, is simple to manufacture, and can be assembled without tools or additional fasteners. At the same time, the design should allow for the integration of decorative designs (e.g., as an Easter bunny) without compromising functionality. Solution

[0004] This object is achieved by a holding device (100) having the features of claim 1. The holding device comprises precisely three components—a standing storage element (10), a holding element (120), and a connecting element (130)—which are connected to one another via plug-in and clamp connections. The connection is purely form-fitting, without adhesives, screws, or other external fastening means. The construction ensures secure standing and stable support of the egg. Advantageous designs

[0005] Advantageous embodiments are described in the dependent claims. Particularly preferably, all elements are made of wood, in particular plywood, which is suitable for clamp connections due to its elasticity, durability, and good workability. The mounting device (100) is assembled in such a way that first, the push-through section (124) of the mounting element (120) is guided through the recess (114b) of the standing storage element (110). Subsequently, the plug-in connector (131) of the connecting element (130) is inserted into the recess (122a) of the mounting element (120). By slight bending, the clamp connector (132) is inserted into the second recess (114a) of the standing storage element (110). The entire construction is stabilized by two support surfaces (135). One example is a rabbit-shaped mounting device in which the mounting elements form the stylized silhouette of a rabbit with an egg in its belly area. Description of the embodiments Fig. 1 shows a perspective view of a holding device (100) in assembled state. Fig. 2 shows a representation in assembled state with the three individual parts: standing storage element (110), holding element (120) and connecting element (130). Fig. Figure 3 shows the standing storage element (110) in plan view. It has an opening (111) for receiving the egg, a standing storage surface (113), two recesses (114) for receiving the plug-in elements, and a contact section (112) for placement on a surface. Fig. Figure 4 shows the holding element (120) in plan view. It has a central opening (121) that forms a holding element support surface (123) for lateral support of the egg. Also shown are a recess (122a) for connection to the connecting element (130) and a through-hole section (124) for attachment to the standing support element (110). Fig.Figure 5 shows the connecting element (130) in plan view. It has a plug connector (131) and a clamp connector (132) for positive connection with the other elements, a contact section (133), a slip-through protection device (134), and a support surface (135) for support on the ground.

[0006] The holding device (100) consists of: • a standing storage element (110) with an opening (111) for receiving the lower part of the egg and two recesses (114a, 114b), • a holding element (120) with an opening (121) through which a holding element support surface (123) for lateral reception of the egg is formed, with two recesses (122a and 122b) and a through-section (124), • a connecting element (130) with a plug connector (131), a clamp connector (132), a contact section (133), a slip protection device (134) and a support surface (135).

[0007] The egg is guided laterally between the two openings (121) and (111) of the holding element (120) and the standing storage element (110) and rests on the holding element storage surface (123) and the standing storage surface (113). The construction offers reliable support, easy assembly and disassembly, a decorative design, and resource-efficient production.
