Fig. 2A shows an expanded schematic view of the clamping structure 10 according to the first embodiment of the present invention, and the clamping structure 10 includes a first clamping portion 11 and a second clamping portion 12.

The first clamping portion 11 includes a plurality of first clamping holes 111, and the diameter of the first clamping holes 111 is larger than the diameter of the bottle cap of the bottle body. The second clamping portion 12 includes a plurality of second clamping holes 121 corresponding to the first clamping holes 111, i.e. the first clamping holes 111 and the second clamping holes 121 at least partially overlap when the first clamping portion 11 and the second clamping portion 12 are stacked together. The diameter of the second clamping hole 121 is larger than the diameter of the bottle cap of the bottle body. The 'aperture of the clamping hole is larger than the diameter of the bottle cap' means that the size of the clamping hole is matched with the size of the bottle cap, namely the bottle cap can be allowed to pass through the clamping hole, and the shape of the clamping hole is not limited. The clamping hole can be designed into a square hole, a circular hole or an irregular hole. The shape design of the clamping hole mainly considers the contact between the periphery and the bottle body as much as possible so as to be beneficial to the clamping stability. The size of the clamping hole is designed mainly by considering the matching of bottle bodies and bottle caps with different sizes.

The first clamping portion 11 is stackable with the second clamping portion 12, the second clamping portion 12 being transitionable between a first position and a second position relative to the first clamping portion 11. In the first position, the aperture of the plurality of cross holes H1 formed by the first engaging holes 111 and the second engaging holes 121 in a one-to-one correspondence is smaller than the bottle cap diameter of the bottle body and larger than the bottle neck diameter, wherein the phrase "the aperture of the cross holes H1 is smaller than the bottle cap diameter and larger than the bottle neck diameter" means that the size of the cross holes H1 is adapted to the bottle neck size, that is, can be engaged with the bottle neck, and is not limited to the shape of the cross holes. In the second position, the aperture of the plurality of cross holes H2 is larger than the diameter of the bottle cap of the bottle body. Specifically, the first position and the second position are formed in accordance with the relative positional relationship in which the first clamping portion 11 and the second clamping portion 12 are superposed. Referring to fig. 3 (a), in the first position, the second clamping portion 12 is stacked on the first clamping portion 11, the number and positions of the first clamping holes 111 correspond to those of the second clamping holes 121, and the shapes of the first clamping holes 111 and the second clamping holes 121 may be the same or different, and the aperture of the cross hole H1 formed by the first clamping holes and the second clamping holes is smaller than the diameter of the bottle cap of the bottle body and larger than the diameter of the bottle neck, and the first position is the position where the bottle body is clamped, that is, the position where the combined packaging of the bottle body and the clamping structure 10 is completed. Referring to fig. 3 (b), in the second position, the second clamping portion 12 is above the first clamping portion 11, and the aperture of the three-dimensional intersecting hole H2 defined by the two is larger than the diameter of the bottle cap of the bottle body, and the second position is the position where the bottle body is to be clamped or the clamping structure 10 is to be detached.

According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the first card hole 111 and the second card hole 121 have the same shape and size. The shape and the size of the clamping hole are the same, so that the compatibility of the die and the convenience of processing are facilitated. For example, the first and second chucking holes 111 and 121 are each substantially circular hole-shaped having a hole diameter larger than the diameter of the bottle cap. The first clamping part 11 and the second clamping part 12 are overlapped, and in the second position, the first clamping hole 111 and the second clamping hole 121 are approximately aligned or the projection of the second clamping hole 121 is approximately aligned with the first clamping hole 111 to form an approximately circular cross hole H2 with a larger size; in the first position, the first engaging hole 111 and the second engaging hole 121 are offset to form a double-arc cross hole H1 having a small size.

According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, referring to fig. 2A, the first bayonet hole 111 includes a first opening portion 1111 and a second opening portion 1112, wherein the first opening portion 1111 has a size larger than the cap of the bottle body, and the second opening portion 1112 has a size smaller than the cap of the bottle body and larger than the neck of the bottle. Preferably, the second chucking hole 121 has the same shape and size as the first chucking hole 111, that is, the second chucking hole 121 includes a third opening 1211 and a fourth opening 1212, and the size of the third opening 1211 is larger than the size of the bottle cap, and the size of the fourth opening 1212 is smaller than the size of the bottle cap of the bottle body and larger than the size of the bottle neck. The first opening portion 1111 is, for example, a larger circular hole, and the second opening portion 1112 is, for example, a smaller circular hole, as shown in fig. 2A, the two portions are partially overlapped to form a shape with a larger end and a smaller end, wherein the larger circular hole is adapted to the diameter of the bottle cap, i.e. can pass through the bottle cap, and the smaller circular hole is adapted to the diameter of the bottle neck, i.e. can pass through the bottle neck. In the first embodiment, the third opening 1211 and the fourth opening 1212 are respectively the same as the first opening 1111 and the second opening 1112 (which may be different in other embodiments), and are not described herein again. The present invention is not limited to the shape of the opening, and it is within the scope of the present invention to fit the bottle cap and the bottle neck in size, respectively.

When the beverage bottle is packed by the combination of the holding structure 10, the first holding part 11 and the second holding part 12 are stacked up and down, and in the second position, the first opening 1111 of the first engaging hole 111 and the third opening 1211 or the fourth opening 1212 of the second engaging hole 121 form a cross hole H2, and at this time, the diameter of the cross hole H2 is the largest and the opening size is larger than the bottle cap size. After the cross hole H2 passes through the bottle cap, the clamping structure 10 is switched to the first position, the second opening portion 1112 of the first clamping hole 111 and the fourth opening portion 1212 of the second clamping hole 121 form a cross hole H1, the aperture of the cross hole H1 is smaller than that of the cross hole H2, the opening size is between the size of the bottle cap and the size of the bottle neck, and the bottle neck can be clamped at the bottle neck and can be movably but not loosened.

According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the first clamping portion 11 further includes a handle member 112 perpendicular to the plane of the plurality of first locking holes 111, and the second clamping portion 12 further includes a slot 122 corresponding to the handle member 112, and the handle member 112 can pass through the slot 122 until the second clamping portion 12 and the first clamping portion 11 are stacked up and down. Referring to fig. 2A and 2B, the first clamping portion 11 is of a substantially symmetrical design, and includes two substantially identical halves as shown in fig. 2A, each half having half the number of first clamping holes 111 and a portion of the handle member 112. After the two ends of the first clamping portion 11, which are provided with the first clamping holes 111, are pressed towards the middle, the middle part is raised and is combined to form the handle piece 112, and the handle piece 112 is perpendicular to the plane of the first clamping holes 111, as shown in fig. 2B. The periphery of the plane of the first engaging hole 111 is aligned with the periphery of the second holding portion 12, and the position of the handle member 112 corresponds to the position of the slot 122. When the slot 122 passes downwardly through the handle member 112, a second position is formed as shown in fig. 3 (b); when the insertion groove 122 continues downward until the second clamping portion 12 and the first clamping portion 11 are overlapped, the first position shown in fig. 3 (a) is formed. The combination of the handle member 112 and the slot 122 may enhance the comfort of carrying.

According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, when the handle member 112 is in the unfolded state, the handle member 112 and the first fastening holes 111 are located on the same plane, and the first fastening holes 111 are symmetrically disposed on two sides or four sides of the handle member 112. Referring to fig. 2A, taking the currently mainstream 6-bottle combination package specification as an example, the handle member 112 is disposed at the middle position of the first clamping portion 11, 3 first fastening holes 111 are disposed in a row at one side of the handle member 112, and the other 3 first fastening holes 111 are disposed in a row at the other side of the handle member 112. The symmetrical design is beneficial to the balanced stress of the clamping structure 10 and improves the stability. The clamping structure 10 can be expanded to 4 rows of clamping holes, 6 rows of clamping holes, 8 rows of clamping holes and the like, as the material strength allows.

According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the first clamping portion 11 further includes a limiting member 113, and the limiting member 113 is disposed at one side of the handle member 112 to limit the lateral movement of the second clamping portion 12. Referring to fig. 2A and 2B, after pressing the two ends of the first clamping portion 11 toward the middle, the middle portion is raised and combined to form a handle member 112 and a stopper member 113. After the clamping structure 10 is switched from the second position to the first position, the second clamping portion 12 can be locked at the first position by the limiting member 113, so as to prevent the aperture of the cross hole H1 from being enlarged due to the movement of the second clamping portion 12, and further prevent the bottle neck from being loosened or the bottle body from being loosened and sliding off.

According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, referring to fig. 2A and 2B, one side of the handle member 112 has steps 113-1 and 113-2 symmetrical to each other. When the first clamping portion 11 is unfolded, the stepped portions 113-1 and 113-2 are separated from each other. After the two ends of the first clamping portion 11 are pressed towards the middle, while the handle piece 112 is formed, two independent step portions 113-1 and 113-2 are overlapped to form a step portion, namely a limiting member 113, the width of the slot 122 is basically equal to the width of the first clamping portion 11 below the step portion, wherein in the first position, the second clamping portion 12 and the first clamping portion 11 are stacked up and down; in the second position, the second clamping portion 12 is separated on one side from the first clamping portion 11. In the first position, since the width of the slot 122 is substantially equal to the width of the first clamping portion 11 below the step portion, the second clamping portion 12 is clamped or locked at the first position by the step portion (i.e. the limiting member 113), and cannot move along the horizontal direction R-R in fig. 2B, so as to keep the small cross hole H1 (as shown in fig. 3 (a)) unchanged, thereby keeping the bottle cap locked to the bottle body. As shown in fig. 2B, the stepped portion is wider at the lower portion and narrower at the upper portion, so that when one side (right side in the drawing) of the second clamping portion 12 rises to the upper portion of the stepped portion, the locking at the first position is released previously, and thus the second clamping portion 12 can be moved in the horizontal direction R-R in the drawing or rotated (as shown in (B) in fig. 3) about the other side (left side in the drawing) thereof, thereby shifting to the second position. Referring to fig. 2A and 2B, the limiting member 113 is a step portion disposed on one side of the handle member 112, and has a height slightly higher than a plane where the first engaging hole 111 is located and lower than a height of the handle member 112. The sum of the widths of the handle 12 and the limiting member 113 matches the width of the slot 122. Referring to fig. 3 (b), the second clamping portion 12 is pressed downward obliquely, the slot 122 is first inserted through the handle 113, the second engaging hole 121 on one side of the second clamping portion 12 forms a cross hole H2 with the first engaging hole 111 on one side of the first clamping portion 11, and the other side of the second clamping portion 12 is suspended above the first clamping portion 11, so as to form a second position to be engaged or detached. After the second clamping portion 12 continues to be pressed down until it touches the limiting member 113, the second clamping portion 12 is moved laterally, so that the slot 122 passes through the limiting member 113 until the second clamping portion 12 is stacked on the first clamping portion 11, and referring to fig. 3 (a), the transition from the second position to the first position is completed, thereby forming the clamping connection for the bottle body.

According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the handle member 112 includes a through hole 1121 and a fold 1122 disposed at the root of the through hole 1121, and when the second clamping portion 12 and the first clamping portion 11 are stacked up and down, the handle member 112 can be bent to one side along the fold 1122 until the through hole 1121 is snapped to the bottle cap. Preferably, the height of the stop 113 is lower than the height of the fold 1122. Referring to fig. 2A, in the unfolded state of the handle 112, the through hole 1121 is divided into two independent through holes, and the fold 1122 is also divided into two independent folds. After the two ends of the first clip part 11 are pressed toward the middle, the middle part is raised and overlapped to form the handle 112, the two parts of the through hole 1121 are overlapped, and the two parts of the fold 1122 are also overlapped. The through hole 1121 is adapted to the size of a human hand, preferably, the width of four fingers. Referring to fig. 3 (a), when the clamping structure 10 is at the first position, the bottle body is clamped, and at this time, the bottle cap is higher than the plane of the second clamping portion 12 but lower than the height of the handle 112, and does not shield the through hole 1121, which is convenient for a consumer to lift. Preferably, the height of the bottle cap is slightly higher than the height of the fold 1122, and when the handle member 112 is bent to one side along the fold, the through hole 1121 can be snapped at the bottle cap, i.e., the height of the bottle body is not increased by the clamping structure 10, so as to ensure that no additional space is occupied during transportation or stacking.

According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the handle member 112 further includes a stopper 1123 disposed corresponding to the through hole 1121, and the stopper 1123 can be received in the through hole 1121 or bent to one side to form a scratch-proof design, so as to improve the comfort of long-time lifting.

According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the first clamping portion 11 further has a first groove 114, and the first groove 114 and the limiting member 113 are disposed on the same side of the handle member 112. Optionally, a second groove 124 is disposed at a corresponding position of the second clamping portion 12, and referring to fig. 2B, when the first clamping portion 11 is in the unfolded state, one side close to the limiting member 113 has two independent gaps, and after the two ends of the first clamping portion 11 are pressed toward the middle, the middle portion bulges and forms the handle member 112, and the two independent gaps form the first groove 114. Referring to fig. 3, in the first and second positions, the second groove 124 is above the first groove. Preferably, the depth of the second groove 124 is smaller, the depth of the first groove 114 is larger, when the first position is converted into the second position, only a finger needs to be placed at the first groove 114, then the second groove 124 is lifted upwards, and the limiting member 113 is pressed at the same time, so that the limitation of the limiting member 113 on the second clamping portion 12 can be removed, and finally the clamping structure 10 can be easily disassembled.
