Description

  The present invention is suitable for bottle support in draining (draining) after the bottle is washed or draining the content liquid, and drying, storage, etc., and particularly for a bottle that can be stably supported even in a bottle with a short neck. The present invention relates to a support rack and a bottle support method.

  A small amount of water or liquid remaining in the bottle after washing the bottle or draining the liquid from the bottle becomes a bottleneck in handling the bottle to collect or dry after washing. It takes time until the water and liquid dripping from the bottle is tilted, and it is troublesome to do it manually.

  For the purpose of draining and drying the bottle after washing in general households, etc., it has a hook for hanging at the upper end of the bar, and a holding part for the outer wall of the bottle at the middle part of the bar, and the lower part of the bar is bent upward A bottle hanging dryer having a structure in which the front end of the bottle is close to the holding portion of the bottle outer wall is disclosed and well known. (See Patent Document 1)

  It also has support leg bottoms with desired spacing in the lateral and longitudinal directions for the purpose of supporting bottles with fine necks that contain sake, wine, brandy and other liquors, and other bottled liquids or milky bodies. In addition, a through hole into which a thin neck portion of a bottle having a thin neck portion can be inserted in the upper portion, and when using, the thin neck portion of the bottle is inserted into the through hole, and the state of the inclined structure A bottle support and a bottle support method are disclosed in which a bottle portion having a thin neck portion can be supported in a substantially horizontal direction or slightly, but at a position where the thin neck portion is lower than a thick bottle body. Has been. (See Patent Document 2)

  The bottle suspending and drying apparatus of the above-mentioned Patent Document 1 inserts a tip portion bent upward and bent upward into the bottle mouth, and supports the bottle mouth by the lower bent portion and the tip portion bent upward. The top of the bottle is supported by the holding surface of the holding part of the outer wall of the bottle, and the hook on the upper end is hooked, and the bottle mouth is suspended downward to drain and dry. It takes time and effort to insert the tip part bent upwards into the bottle mouth and remove it from the bottle mouth, the bottle mouth is blocked by the bent part of the stick, and draining does not go smoothly, and There is a problem that it is unsanitary because a rod is inserted and supported in the bottle.

  In addition, the bottle support and the bottle support method of Patent Document 2 are provided with a through hole into which a thin neck portion of the bottle can be inserted in a plate-like support device, and the thin neck portion of the bottle is provided in the through hole. It is inserted so that the bottle containing the contents is supported only by the thin neck part, and the load tends to concentrate on the thin neck part of the bottle, and the through hole and the thin neck part of the bottle match. However, there is a problem that it is difficult to apply to supporting a bottle with a short neck.

  Further, the wine bottle display shelf of Patent Document 3 and the shelf structure of the showcase of Patent Document 4 are provided with two pairs of support rods that are cantilevered on a rear substrate that is erected substantially vertically. Place bottles of wine side by side with the bottle mouth tilted upward, or make the wire lengthwise smaller than the diameter of the large diameter part of the bottle and larger than the diameter of the spout part of the bottle Place the bottles with wine on the shelf network, which is arranged at intervals and is larger than the length of the large-diameter portion of the bottle in the horizontal direction, and the wire located at the spout is raised. If the bottle mouth is directed diagonally downward, such as draining or draining after the bottle has been washed or the contents have been drained, the bottle support becomes unstable and the bottle mouth is slanted. There is a problem that it is difficult to obtain a sufficient downward gradient.

  In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present inventor, in the support bar material, both ends of which are fixed and attached by the mounting member in Japanese Patent Application No. 2004-37757, the opening is smaller than the body diameter portion of the bottle, A support member formed larger than the neck diameter portion including the bottle mouth portion is attached and fixed, and the neck diameter portion including the bottle mouth portion is inserted into the opening of the support member, and the support bar and the support member are used. Provided are a bottle support rack and a bottle support method in which a bottle diameter part and a neck diameter part including a bottle mouth part are supported in different directions, and a bottle support method. In order to support the mouth in an oblique direction, there was a case where it was not possible to support in a well-balanced manner, which was solved by the bottle support rack and the bottle support method described below.

That is, the means for solving the problem is
(1) A support member formed with the opening opening larger than the body diameter part of the bottle is provided horizontally on the fixed support bar, the opening opening is smaller than the body diameter part of the bottle, and the bottle opening part is provided. The bottle support rack is characterized in that the support member formed to be larger than the body diameter part is provided in a diagonally downward direction and a substantially vertical downward direction, and the opening is formed to be larger than the bottle diameter part and horizontal. The support member provided in the support member provided at the bottom of the bottle and the opening is smaller than the bottle diameter of the bottle and larger than the neck of the neck including the bottle mouth, The neck diameter portion of the bottle is supported by a support member provided substantially vertically downward.

  As described in the above means, the present invention supports the bottle diameter part with a support member that is horizontally formed by forming the opening opening larger than the bottle diameter part of the bottle, and the opening opening is the bottle diameter part of the bottle. The neck diameter portion of the bottle is supported by a support member that is smaller and formed larger than the neck diameter portion including the bottle mouth portion and provided obliquely downward or a support member provided substantially vertically downward. Therefore, it is possible to obtain an advantageous effect for obtaining a stable support in a state where the bottle mouth portion is directed obliquely downward, such as draining (liquid draining) after washing the bottle or discharging the inner solution.

  In addition, the neck of the bottle is formed with a support member provided in an obliquely downward direction or a support member provided in a substantially vertical downward direction by forming the opening opening smaller than the body diameter part of the bottle and larger than the neck diameter part including the bottle opening part. Since it supports so that it may be clamped, even if the bottle has a short neck, stable support can be obtained, and it is possible to support by changing the inclination angle of the bottle.

  Furthermore, since the support member is not inserted into the bottle mouth and supported, the outflow of water (liquid) is not blocked, draining (liquid draining) is performed smoothly, and draining after washing the bottle or discharging the content liquid ( (Liquid draining), and drying and storage can be performed hygienically.

  The best mode for carrying out the present invention is to provide a fixed support bar with a support member formed horizontally with an opening larger than the body diameter of the bottle, and the opening is the body diameter of the bottle. The support member formed smaller than the neck part and larger than the neck diameter part including the bottle mouth part is provided as a bottle support rack provided obliquely downward and substantially vertically downward, and the opening is larger than the body diameter part of the bottle. Supports the barrel diameter part of the bottle with a horizontally formed support member, and the opening is smaller than the bottle diameter part of the bottle and larger than the neck diameter part including the bottle mouth part, and is provided obliquely downward. The neck portion of the bottle is supported by a support member or a support member provided substantially vertically downward, and the support member is bent into a U shape with a wire or a round bar, respectively, and molded. The support member provided in the diagonally downward direction is installed horizontally from the vertically lower side. It was by increasing progressively the tilt angle towards the support member is obtained by forming a plurality of inclined portions. Hereinafter, embodiments will be described with reference to the drawings.
