Description

[0001] FIXED TABLE

[0002] BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0003] AREA OF INVENTION

[0004] The invention relates to a stationary table with a base and a tabletop.

[0005] STATE OF THE ART

[0006] The tabletop of tables known from the prior art has a closed surface, allowing objects to be placed on it. This fulfills the tabletop's purpose insofar as objects can be placed on it that can later be picked up by a seated or standing person and, in particular, brought to their mouth. Furthermore, the tabletop is dimensioned to accommodate the number of people using the table simultaneously. Optionally, for aesthetic reasons, the tabletop has a curved edge and is made, at least on its surface, of an aesthetically pleasing material. The table itself is dimensioned in height to suit its intended use by seated or standing persons.Tables with casters at their base are also known from the prior art, allowing them to be moved like a cart. In the case of a standing table, the base is usually designed to allow the upper and lower legs of the user to be positioned below the tabletop. Tables can also be designed so that the tabletop is positioned at a height approximately equal to the hip height of a seated person, requiring a seated user to lean forward or reach to the side to pick up an object from the tabletop. Objects placed on a tabletop include, in particular, food and beverages, which, depending on the ambient temperature, will warm up when they are meant to be eaten cold, or cool down when they are meant to be eaten hot.Especially when consuming wine or sparkling wine, the correct temperature is crucial. White wines and sparkling wines should be served at a temperature of 8-14°C for optimal enjoyment. This prevents the acidity from becoming too dominant over the other flavor components at too low a temperature, thus hindering the development of other aromas. Conversely, it prevents the alcohol from becoming too prominent at too high a temperature, resulting in a flat or stale taste. For this reason, wine coolers are used. These are containers filled with crushed ice or ice cubes and a little water, and the bottle of wine or sparkling wine is then placed inside. The wine cooler is then placed on the table, where the wine or sparkling wine is chilled.However, such wine coolers take up a considerable amount of the limited space on a tabletop, sometimes disrupt the aesthetics of a set table, and can also be accidentally knocked over.

[0007] To address these problems, bottle cooler stands are known from the prior art, consisting of a base and a shelf. The shelf is just large enough to accommodate a bottle cooler. Such a bottle cooler stand can then be positioned next to a table, thus eliminating the need to place the bottle cooler directly on the tabletop. However, these bottle cooler stands take up space on the table and during storage, can be accidentally knocked over, and, as additional equipment, also incur extra costs.

[0008] REVELATION OF THE INVENTION

[0009] OBJECTIVE OF THE INVENTION The invention is based on the objective of providing a stationary table which offers the possibility of using a bottle cooler without having to place it on the tabletop, but also without having to use a separately set up bottle cooler stand.

[0010] TECHNICAL SOLUTION

[0011] To solve the problem, a stationary table with the features of claim 1 is provided. Further embodiments of the table are the subject of the dependent claims.

[0012] A stationary table is understood here to be one that is not equipped with casters or other means of movement for moving the table. The stationary table according to the invention, comprising a base and a tabletop, is characterized in that the base has a vertically extending support section which is connected to and supports the tabletop, wherein the tabletop has a recess into which at least one container with an end-face opening is inserted, and wherein the at least one container extends axially to below the tabletop and has a larger radial dimension than the dimension of the recess in the tabletop.

[0013] The tabletop is designed with a recess dimensioned to accommodate a container. This container is designed to function as a bottle cooler, featuring an opening at one end. Otherwise, it can be of any shape, as long as it fits into the recess in the tabletop. To prevent the container from falling out, its radial dimensions are larger than those of the recess. However, when inserted into the recess, the container extends below the tabletop, meaning it is only partially or not at all above it.This ensures that the container, which serves as a bottle cooler, is not simply placed on the tabletop, but is held in place by the recess and therefore cannot be knocked over. Furthermore, it does not, or at least not to the same extent, detract from the aesthetics of the table surface. When used as a bottle cooler, the container can first be filled with an ice-water mixture and then a bottle placed inside to achieve the familiar cooling effect. However, this integrated container can also serve other purposes, such as displaying decorative elements like a floral arrangement, thus not only preserving but even enhancing the aesthetics of the tabletop.In this case, too, the advantage of the table according to the invention arises from the fact that the vessel cannot be knocked over and is also aesthetically integrated into the table surface. Finally, the vessel can also serve other purposes, for example, as a place to put items that people have brought with them when they approach the table, but which they do not wish to keep in their pockets or carry on their person the entire time they are at the table, whether for witty conversation or for casual but no less important socializing. However, they also do not want to simply place these items on the tabletop for everyone to see, for example, when the person wants to go into the water at the beach or a pool.Furthermore, it is possible to provide bags or tightly sealable plastic bags, such as polybags, for beach bars and hotel pool areas to better protect the aforementioned personal items. The depth of the container can accommodate all such items belonging to all people using the table, ensuring that the entire table surface surrounding the recess in the tabletop remains available for use, instead of being cluttered with numerous items lying around.If the vessel is to be used as a wine cooler, the improved aesthetics achieved by the table according to the invention are of particular importance, because in a wine tasting, the visual presentation plays a crucial role alongside taste and olfactory perception. This is why wine glasses and wine labels are designed with considerable effort to be not only functional but also aesthetically pleasing. For the table according to the invention, vessels with different capacities can be provided, which fit into the same recess in a tabletop or into differently shaped or sized recesses in different tabletops. The vessel can be made of various materials, the choice of which may depend on its thermal insulation properties or purely aesthetic considerations. For example, the vessel can be made of a metal or...The tabletop, support section, and / or legs can be made of any suitable material, and may be of the same or different materials, including metals, plastics, glass, ceramics, wood, and other natural materials such as rattan or bamboo. Materials suitable for outdoor use include those that are weather-resistant, impact-resistant, scratch-resistant, and UV-stable.

[0014] The vessel can be flush with the surface of the tabletop or protrude beyond it. Furthermore, the vessel can be positioned eccentrically to the center of the tabletop or the central axial axis of the support section.

[0015] The support section of the table according to the invention can be connected on its side facing away from the tabletop to a horizontally extending base. Such a base ensures the stability of the table, but also allows for a greater variety of designs for the support section.

[0016] The base itself can be designed as a horizontally extending plate or as a horizontally extending, at least simply bent or curved, linear body, including a closed form. A plate, in this context, is understood to be an object that has significantly larger dimensions in the longitudinal and transverse directions than in the vertical direction; that is, that the dimensions in the longitudinal and transverse directions are significantly greater than the thickness of the plate. "Horizontally extending" here means that there is an extension in the horizontal direction, but not that the base extends in only a single plane. A linear body, in turn, is understood to be an object that has significantly larger dimensions in the longitudinal direction than in the transverse and vertical directions. It is not necessary for the longitudinal direction to be constant; rather, it is intended that it may change along the length of the linear body.The linear body can have one or more edges, for example to form a square or rectangle, or the linear body can have piecewise curvatures or continuous curvature, for example by forming a circular or oval shape.

[0017] As mentioned above, the container has a larger radial dimension than the recess to prevent it from falling out of the recess in the tabletop. Regarding its radial dimension, the container can be designed such that, preferably in an end region surrounding the opening at the front, it has a radially projecting rim, or the diameter of the container increases axially such that its diameter in a certain area is larger than the diameter of the recess in the tabletop. The radially projecting rim rests against the circumference of the recess in the tabletop, thus preventing the container from falling out. Furthermore, even when full and therefore heavy, the container can be held by a user while being carried to the table, inserted into the recess, or removed from it.An alternative design for the vessel involves an axial increase in diameter (which also includes the distance between opposing points in a non-circular cross-section), from bottom to top, so that at a certain point the diameter is equal to the diameter of the recess and larger. If such a vessel is inserted into the recess in the tabletop, it will remain stuck at a certain insertion depth and therefore cannot be inserted any deeper.In this embodiment, it is also preferably provided that the area of ​​the vessel with a larger diameter than the diameter of the recess is an end area surrounding the front opening of the vessel, so that the vessel can be inserted into the recess with almost its entire length (in axial direction) and accordingly almost the entire vessel is hidden under the table top.

[0018] In a further embodiment, the vessel and / or the tabletop may be made, at least in sections, of a transparent or translucent material, which may be colorless or colored, and / or the vessel may be double-walled or single-walled. The term "colored" also includes a milky, i.e., translucent white, color (even though white is not strictly speaking a color) and, moreover, a combination of colors in a juxtaposition of differently colored areas, as well as a gradient of one or more colors. A double-walled vessel offers better thermal insulation, which further slows down the heating of, for example, a bottle placed inside the vessel if the vessel is used as a bottle cooler. Furthermore, a double wall also prevents the formation of condensation.

[0019] In a particularly preferred embodiment, one or more light sources, in particular an arrangement of light-emitting diodes, can be arranged on the vessel, especially in the area of ​​an underside of the tabletop, preferably along the circumference of the recess, on the tabletop, especially in the area of ​​the recess, on the support section, especially on its inner side, or on the base. Such light sources can illuminate the table, especially the vessel itself, or its surroundings with white or colored light, so that the table according to the invention contributes to the aesthetic design of its surroundings not only through its appearance but also through light or illumination effects.Furthermore, lighting around the table can make it possible for people to be present at all, especially if an outdoor area, such as that of a restaurant, is not illuminated by other lighting after sunset. Such illumination can even be undesirable, as it would disrupt the desired atmosphere of the outdoor area. Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are very small and, when mounted on a substrate, such as an LED strip, can be used as simple and space-saving light sources. LEDs are available on the market in a variety of light colors, including white light.

[0020] The support section of the table according to the invention can be formed from one or more vertically extending profile elements, for example, perpendicularly. "Vertically extending" here means that the profile elements have a vertical dimension, but do not necessarily have to be perpendicular. Furthermore, "vertical" is understood to mean the direction of the Earth's gravitational force towards the Earth's surface. Vertically extending profile elements can therefore, for example, run perpendicular or obliquely to the Earth's surface. The essentially vertically extending profile elements serve as table legs, or, if only one is present, as a table leg. The cross-section of the profile elements can be selected according to design considerations. It can be square, rectangular, round, oval, or star-shaped, or a complex outline profile can be chosen for the cross-section of the profile elements. In any case, the profile element must...The profile elements must be suitable to bear the mass of the tabletop, the filled container, the objects placed on the tabletop, and the additional load caused by people leaning on the tabletop.

[0021] Alternatively, the support section can extend horizontally around the entire circumference of the tabletop and be formed from a multitude of vertically extending struts arranged side by side, or from intersecting struts, from a woven structure, particularly wickerwork, or from a sheet-like material. In this embodiment, the support section forms a cylindrical body located beneath the tabletop, running along its circumference, and bearing the load of the tabletop, any filled container, objects placed on the tabletop, and any persons leaning on the tabletop. This cylindrical body need not have a closed radial surface but can be formed from a multitude of vertically extending struts arranged side by side or from intersecting struts.It can further be provided that the cylindrical body is formed from a mesh or that a covering material, such as a fabric covering, is arranged on it. The cylindrical body does not have to have the shape of a mathematical cylinder, but can deviate from this by being curved outwards or inwards, possibly only in sections (barrel shape, apple shape, pear shape, etc.).

[0022] Handles may be arranged on the support section and / or the tabletop, which protrude particularly above or from the tabletop.

[0023] Furthermore, the tabletop can have not only a round but also an oval shape, which can improve its adaptation to the room.

[0024] Angular or curved shapes for the tabletop are also possible, either to adapt to the space in which the table is to be placed or to enhance the aesthetic appearance of the space. The table can include a lid to close the recess in the tabletop and / or to close the opening at the end of the at least one vessel, the lid being particularly releasable. By closing the recess in the tabletop and / or the opening at the end of the vessel, a closed table surface can be created, thus enabling its use as a conventional table. For this purpose, the lid can be flush with the surrounding surface. Furthermore, the lid can cover the entire tabletop. Accordingly, the lid can have the same basic shape as the tabletop, e.g.,The lid can be round, oval, rectangular, square, triangular, polygonal, or any other shape, as can the opening at the end of the container and / or the recess for the container in the tabletop. When covering the entire tabletop, the lid thus constitutes a second, double tabletop.

[0025] The lid may have a recess or opening for easy removal. The recess may be located at the edge of the lid, or it may be in the center of the lid or above the opening or recess of the tabletop or container that is being covered.

[0026] Finally, it can be provided that the tabletop is detachably connected to the support section and / or that the tabletop or the support section is designed to correspond to the base or support section in such a way that two tables can be stacked on top of each other, in particular that the support section (120, 220) of one table (100, 200) can be inserted into the support section (120, 220) of another table (100, 200), and / or that the base is designed in the form of a plate. A detachable connection between the support section and the tabletop can advantageously be made by means of a positive or clamping connection, so that the connection can be made without additional fasteners and tools, such as screws and screwdrivers.In this way, the connection can be easily broken and the tabletop replaced with another, for example, a tabletop with a different aesthetic appearance, a tabletop with a differently sized or shaped recess, or a tabletop without a recess for holding a vessel. If the tabletop or support section is designed to correspond with the base or support section in such a way that two tables can be stacked on top of each other, several tables can be stored in a space-saving manner, and more than two tables can be stacked on top of each other. The correspondence between the tabletop or support section and the base or support section refers to the tabletop or support section of one table and the base or support section of another, but identical, table.When stacked, the base or support section of one table can form a form-fit or clamping connection with the support section of the other (lower) table to achieve a stable vertical arrangement of both tables, optionally requiring the tabletop of the lower table to be removed. Furthermore, if the base is flat, the table can be turned upside down and used as a seat, because then the flat base faces upwards and the tabletop with the recess faces downwards.

[0027] The table, and in particular the support section, may have a lockable compartment for storing valuables.

[0036] Two preferred embodiments of the invention are described in more detail below with reference to drawings. However, the invention is not limited to these embodiments.

[0037] Fig. 1a shows a first preferred embodiment of the stationary table 100 according to the invention, in which the support section 120 is formed by four vertically extending, square-sectioned profile elements which connect a rectangular tabletop 110 to a base 130. A recess 111 (see Fig. 1b) is formed in the tabletop 110, into which a pot-shaped container 140 is inserted. The container 140 has a cylindrical main body 141, which extends in the axial direction (i.e., downwards or upwards in the figure), and a radially projecting rim 142, which surrounds an opening of the container 140.The vessel 140 is closed at the bottom, allowing objects, and in particular an ice-water mixture, along with a bottle, to be placed inside it. The projecting rim 142 extends radially beyond the circumference of the recess 111 in the tabletop 110, preventing the vessel 140 from falling out of the recess 111. It is dimensioned to support the entire weight of the vessel 140 and its contents while resting on the surface of the tabletop 110. The base 130 is designed as a linear body with four edges 131, forming a closed rectangular shape.By arranging the four profile elements 121 on only one half of the base 130, there is a free space below the tabletop 110, allowing a person standing at the table to position their upper and lower legs below the tabletop 110 and thus assume a comfortable posture. The recess 111 in the tabletop 110, and consequently the receptacle 140, are also located within the area of ​​the four profile elements 121 and therefore above only one half of the base 130. However, because the tabletop 110 and the base 130 extend significantly beyond the position of the receptacle 140 in the horizontal direction, the table 110 remains stable, even when people lean on the tabletop 110 and thereby exert an additional load on it. In another embodiment, the base 130 can be designed as a plate instead of a closed linear body.

[0038] Fig. 1b shows a top view of the tabletop 110 of the first embodiment with the recess 111 formed therein. In this embodiment, the recess 111 is circular, corresponding to the round cross-sectional shape of the vessel 140. In other embodiments, the vessel and, accordingly, the recess in the tabletop 110 can also have a rectangular cross-sectional shape.

[0039] Figures 1c and 1d show schematic representations of tables 100 according to the invention with various vessels. Figure 1c shows a schematic representation of the table 100 from Figure 1a, in which the vessel 140 is inserted into the tabletop 110 via the recess 111, the end opening of the vessel 140 being surrounded by a radially projecting rim 142. The projecting rim 142 forms a counter-bearing and rests against the surface of the tabletop 110, so that the projecting rim 142 bears the weight of the vessel 140 along with its contents. In contrast, Figure 1d shows a table 100 in which a recess is also formed in the tabletop 110, into which a vessel 150 is inserted.Unlike vessel 140, as shown in Figures 1a and 1c, vessel 150 does not have a radially projecting rim. Instead, the diameter of vessel 150 increases axially from bottom to top, so that at a certain point its axial diameter is equal to the diameter of the recess in the tabletop, and the area 152 above it has a larger diameter. Accordingly, vessel 150 can only be inserted into the recess 110 of the tabletop to a certain depth, because the increasing diameter of vessel 150 prevents it from penetrating further into the recess beyond a certain depth.

[0040] Fig. 2 shows a second preferred embodiment of the stationary table 200 according to the invention. Unlike the table 100 of the previous embodiment, the table 200 is not designed as a standing table, but rather its height is such that the surface of the tabletop 210 can be easily reached by a seated person. The tabletop 210 again has a recess into which a container 240 with a radially projecting rim 242 is inserted, such that the projecting rim 242 rests on the surface of the tabletop 210, thus preventing the container 240 from falling out of the recess in the tabletop 210. In this embodiment, the shape of the tabletop 210 is circular, although an oval or curved shape can also be chosen.In contrast to the previous embodiment, the support section 220 is designed as a cylindrical body extending along the entire circumference of the tabletop 210 and formed by vertically extending struts 221. These struts 221 are curved in their lower region, so that any two of these struts 221 form approximately a U-shape or V-shape, and are connected at their lower end to a base 230 designed as a linear body. Like the tabletop 210, the base 230 has a circular shape, but its diameter is smaller than that of the tabletop 210. Accordingly, the cylindrical body does not have the shape of a mathematical cylinder (which has the same diameter along its entire axial length), but tapers slightly towards the bottom.Nevertheless, the circular base 230, which is therefore designed as a linear body and not as a plate, is able to bear the load of the entire table 200 and gives it a stable stand.

[0041] It is of course also possible that the struts 221 of the support section 220 are connected at their lower end to a plate, for example circular, which would then form the base 230.

[0042] Furthermore, the cylindrical body forming the support section 220 can be created by a different arrangement of the struts 221. For example, the struts can cross each other, have a different shape or color, be made of a different material, be closer together or further apart, be connected by horizontal struts, etc. The cylindrical body can also be made of a mesh. It can also have a different shape, such as being convex or concave. Additionally, a covering, such as a fabric covering or raffia weaving, can be arranged on the support section.

[0043] With reference to Fig. 3, it is also advantageously possible to stack two of the tables as shown in Fig. 2 on top of each other, because the cylindrical, downwardly tapered shape of the support section 220 allows the support section 220 of a second table 200 to be inserted into the support section 220 of a first table 200. For this purpose, in this embodiment, the tabletop 210 of at least the lower table 200 must be removed. The tabletop 210 is detachably connected to the support section 220 for this purpose, preferably by a clamping or positive locking mechanism, and can therefore be removed. The support section 220 of a second table 200 is then inserted, with the base 230 leading, into the support section 220 of a first table 200, which is open at the top after the removal of the tabletop 210. This is shown schematically in Fig.Figure 3 shows two tables 200 stacked on top of each other (three or more tables can also be stacked in the same way). The upper part of Figure 3 schematically depicts two identical tables 200. To stack them, the tabletop 210 is removed from one of the tables 200 (middle part of the figure), and then the support section 220 of the removed table 200 is inserted into the support section 220 of the table 200 from which the tabletop 210 was removed. Such stacking is also possible with tables that have differently shaped support sections.Additionally or as an alternative for tables whose support sections, due to their shape, do not allow the support section of one table to be inserted into the support section of another, it can be provided that a form-fit connection is created between the tabletop of a lower table and the base of an upper table, so that the tables can be stacked stably on top of each other. For example, a recess can be formed in the tabletop that corresponds to the base of the table to be stacked on top of it.

[0044] Fig. 4 shows a side view of another embodiment of the table 200 with a tabletop 210, a support section 220, and a base 230. The container 240 for holding a bottle of sparkling wine or wine to be chilled is arranged eccentrically to the center of the tabletop 210 or to the central axis of the support section 220. Furthermore, a second, preferably smaller, container 260 is arranged, which is also arranged eccentrically to the center of the tabletop 210 or to the central axis of the support section 220 and can be used to hold ice cubes for a beverage. The table 200 also includes two handles 220, which are arranged opposite each other on the support section 220 and project from the tabletop 210 beyond the support section 220. In addition, Fig.4 A lid 250 is shown, which has approximately the same size and shape as the table top 210 and can be detachably arranged on it to provide a closed table surface.

[0045] Furthermore, the table 200 from Fig. 4 has a lockable compartment 270, which serves for the secure storage of valuables. In the embodiment of Fig. 4, the compartment 270 is arranged in the support section 220, but can also be arranged in other suitable locations, such as as a further recess in the tabletop 210.

[0046] Figures 5a to 5c show another embodiment of a table 300, which has a tabletop 310, a support section 320 with several profile elements, and feet 330 formed thereon. A circular recess 311 for receiving a frustoconical container 340 is formed in the center of the tabletop 310, or coaxially with the central axial axis of the table and parallel to the profile elements through the center of the tabletop. The recess 311 can be closed by a lid 350. For this purpose, the container 340 can be removed from the recess 311. Both the container 340 and the lid 350 can be arranged flush with the surface of the tabletop 310. This is shown in the partial view of Figure 5c, which shows the edge 351 of the lid 350 in the recess 311. In the other detailed view of Figure 5c, the rim 351 of the lid 350 is shown in the recess 311.Figure 5c shows a recess 352 at the edge 351 of the lid, which facilitates the removal of the lid 350 from the recess 311. Alternatively or additionally, the lid can have an opening for engagement, preferably in the center of the lid or above a recess or opening in the underlying tabletop or container.

[0047] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, it is obvious to those skilled in the art that the invention is not limited to this embodiment, but rather that modifications are possible such that individual features can be omitted or different combinations of features can be implemented without departing from the scope of protection of the appended claims. In particular, the present disclosure includes all combinations of the individual features of the embodiment.
