DE3904112A1 - Bottle rack - Google Patents

Abstract

The bottle rack described, e.g. for wine bottles, allows, besides its decorative arrangement, good access to each bottle and good readability of labels in the stored state. By virtue of the stackability and rotatability, high columns for cellar storage can be constructed, but also, using one or a small number of individual elements, readily usable table arrangements.

Description

The invention relates to a bottle stand, the horizontal storage of bottles. Shelf-like bottle racks are known, which are in the Usually stand on a wall and into which the bottles are placed be pushed that only the bottle necks look out.

This type of storage has the major disadvantage that the wines are not identifiable on the outside because the labels cannot be read when stored. You have to take out every single bottle for identification take and turn. This often done disturbs the calm of the Storage.

If you need the bottle stand for additional, for decorative purposes, so the stands mentioned in the Usually not very demanding.

The object of the invention is the criticisms mentioned switch off or at least better designed.

This object is achieved in that the outline of the bottle stand is a polygon, preferably an equilateral hexagon, and that the individual elements ( 1 ) can be stacked congruently over a common central axis ( 2 ).

The congruent stacking is guaranteed by a plug lock. In many stacked elements ( 1 ) a ver with a foot and a lower support bearing see axis ( 4 ) is provided, which can also be attached to the wall or ceiling at a greater height and makes the element stack rotatable.

The bottles are placed horizontally, approximately tangentially to the circle of the axis of rotation, up to a bottle bottom stop in prismatic bottle supports ( 7 ).

The advantages achieved with the invention lie in something tangential insert of the bottles. This makes all labels either by walking around the stack of elements or by rotating of the element stack readable and which e.g. Cry without them taken out are identifiable. Thus guaranteed the rest of the unwanted wines.

Another advantage is the good use in advertising areas and rooms where appealing design is essential. With the given bottle position, every bottle is equally accessible.

The system allows other polygons in addition to a hexagon, so that the selection can be made as needed.

An element stack that is not too high can also vary depending on the purpose positioned on tables or other small surfaces will.

An embodiment of the invention is shown below poses.

It shows:

Fig. 1 The top view of a single element ( 1 ). The approximately tangential and the same arrangement of the bottle supports ( 7 ) with stop ( 8 ) is clearly recognizable.

Fig. 2 shows the section through two arresting assembled individual elements ( 1 ). The prism shape of the bottle supports ( 7 ) is visible in this illustration.

Fig. 3, the element stack ( 3 ) with foot ( 5 ), axis ( 4 ), support bearing ( 6 ) and ceiling mounting ( 10 ).

Fig. 4 the same structure as Fig. 3. In place of the ceiling attachment, a wall attachment ( 9 ) is used.

Fig. 5 shows two stacked individual elements ( 1 ) with foot ( 5 ) and axis ( 4 ).
