Fig. 1 shows a schematic cross-sectional view of a wine cabinet housing according to one embodiment of the invention. It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the dimensions of the wine cabinet housing in the radial direction are many times larger than in reality in order to clearly show the structure of the wine cabinet housing, and that the top view is merely schematic and not strictly to actual scale. As shown in fig. 1, the wine cabinet of the present invention has a hollow housing 30, and a wine storage space is defined in the housing 30. The hollow housing 30 has a plurality of bottle holders 12 therein. The bottle holder 12 may be secured circumferentially to an inner member of the circumferential side wall of the hollow housing. In the embodiment shown in fig. 1, the housing 30 may specifically include an outer shell layer 32, an insulation layer 34 inside the outer shell layer 32, and an internal support 40 disposed inside the insulation layer 34. The bottle holder 12 may be secured to the inner support frame 40.

FIG. 2 shows a schematic perspective view of a wine cabinet according to one embodiment of the invention. (in this embodiment, the housing of the wine cabinet is omitted for ease of viewing the internal structure of the sake cabinet). As shown in fig. 2, the inner support 40 of an embodiment of the present invention may include an annular mounting base 2 and a plurality of support rods. The support bar has a top horizontal section 6 extending radially horizontally outwardly from the peripheral wall of the annular mounting base 2, and circumferential vertical sections 8 extending vertically downwardly from the top horizontal section 6, wherein each circumferential vertical section 8 is located in a cylindrical surface. To further increase the strength of the inner support 40, the inner support 40 may further comprise a plurality of annular bars 4 arranged on a cylindrical surface where the circumferential vertical sections 8 of the support bars are located. These ring rods 4 extend in the circumferential direction at different vertical heights on the cylindrical surface where the circumferential vertical sections 8 of the support rods are located and are fixedly connected to the circumferential vertical section 8 of each support rod at their crossing locations 10. In this embodiment, the bottle holder 12 may be fixed circumferentially at the intersection 10 of the annular bar 4 with the circumferential vertical section 8 of the support bar. The mating straps, such as self-locking nylon straps, are particularly advantageous for securing the wine bottle holder 12. In alternative embodiments, other means of attachment are possible. In one embodiment, the bottle holders 12 are arranged in multiple layers in a vertical direction, with the bottle holders 12 of each layer being secured circumferentially at spaced apart locations at the intersection 10 of the inner support frames. In the preferred embodiment, the bottle holders 12 of each layer are uniformly arranged in the circumferential direction, and the vertical intervals between the bottle holders 12 of the adjacent two layers are equal.
