  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. And the bottle wall is supported by the holding surface of the holding part of the outer wall of the bottle adjacent to it and hooked at the upper end. It takes time and effort to insert the tip part bent upward and beside it into the bottle mouth, or to remove it from the bottle mouth, and the bottle mouth is blocked by the bent part of the stick, so that draining does not go smoothly, In addition, there is a problem (problem) such as being unsanitary because the bar 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. The load tends to concentrate on the thin neck part of the bottle and the size of the thin neck part of the bottle is different. There are issues (problems) that are difficult to apply.

  Further, the shelf network structure of the wine bottle display shelf of Patent Document 3 and the showcase of Patent Document 4 has a pair of two support rods that are cantilevered on a rear substrate that is erected substantially vertically. The bottles with the bottle mouths are placed side by side with the bottle mouth tilted upward, or the wire is vertically arranged smaller than the diameter of the large diameter portion of the bottle and larger than the diameter of the spout portion of the bottle. Place the bottle containing wine or the like on a shelf net that has a rising edge in the wire located in the spout, and the horizontal direction is larger than the length of the large-diameter portion of the bottle. If the bottle mouth is tilted downward, such as draining or draining after the bottle has been washed or drained, the bottle support becomes unstable and the bottle mouth is slanted. There is a problem (problem) that it is difficult to obtain a sufficient downward gradient.

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention is a support how bottle you characterized by comprising taking steps as described below.
That is, the support bars having a detachable attachment member in the wall or strut at both ends, apertures is less than the cylinder diameter of the bottle, and the wire be larger than the neck diameter including Binguchi portion or A support member formed in a U shape with a bar is attached and fixed, and a neck portion including a bottle mouth portion is inserted into an opening of the support member, and the bottle is formed by the support member. This is a bottle support method in which the body diameter portion of the bottle is supported from below and the neck portion including the bottle mouth portion is supported from above by the support bar .

  The supporting member is preferably formed in a U shape with a wire or a rod, with an opening being smaller than the neck diameter portion of the bottle and larger than the neck diameter portion including the bottle mouth portion. It may be molded or may be molded into a substantially V shape. Then, for example, by supporting the body diameter portion of the bottle from below with a support member formed in a U shape and supporting the neck diameter portion including the bottle mouth portion from above with a support bar, Stable support of the bottle is obtained in a state suitable for

  A state suitable for draining (liquid draining) of the bottle is a state in which the bottle is inclined obliquely with the bottle mouth facing downward so that the water (liquid) is completely cut from the bottle mouth, and both ends of the support bar The inclination of the supported bottle can be changed by the portion being rotatably fixed by the mounting member.

  The support bar is generally a metal straight bar, and considering the slip when the bottle is supported by the metal straight bar, the surface of the support bar is elastic. It is desirable to cover with a cover of the nature. If it does so, the contact (hit) with a bottle is good, the frictional resistance of a contact part increases, it becomes difficult to slip, and it is preferable for supporting a bottle stably.

In addition, in order to allow many draining (drying) and drying of the bottle at a time, the support member is substantially equally spaced so that the open end of the support member is embedded in the side of the straight support bar. A large number of support members are arranged in parallel, and both ends of a support bar arranged in parallel at substantially equal intervals are attached and fixed to a wall of a kitchen, for example, by a mounting member, or a column is set up on an installation table or a movable carriage. In addition, it is also preferable to adopt a support method in which both ends of the support bar are supported by attachment members and fixed in stages so that the openings of the upper and lower support members are alternately displaced on the support column. .

In the present invention, an opening is formed in a support rod provided with attachment members that can be attached to and detached from a wall portion or a support column at both ends thereof in a range that is smaller than the body diameter of the bottle and larger than the neck diameter including the bottle opening. The support member is attached and fixed, the neck diameter portion including the bottle mouth portion is inserted into the opening of the support member, the body diameter portion of the bottle is supported from below by the support member, and the bottle is supported by the support bar. Since the bottle support method is such that the neck diameter part including the mouth part is supported from above, the neck diameter part including the bottle body diameter part and the bottle mouth part fits the opening of the support member. Even if the size and shape of the bottle are different, it is possible to obtain a stable support with any balance.

Both end portions of the supporting Jibozai, by rotatably mounted and fixed to the mounting member, changed the inclination of the supported bottle, does not support so as to block the bottle mouth by and put into the bottle, hygienic In addition, draining (liquid draining) becomes smooth, and a bottle supporting method suitable for draining (liquid draining) after washing the bottle and discharging the content liquid, drying and the like can be obtained.

  Further, the open end of the support member formed in a U-shape (or U-shape or V-shape) may be attached and fixed to a straight support rod, and both ends of the support rod may be attached with the attachment member. It is simple to support, can be provided at low cost, and can be arbitrarily attached to the wall or support column where it is needed.

  The best mode for carrying out the present invention is that a straight support member whose surface is covered with an elastic cover has an opening smaller than the bottle diameter and larger than the neck including the bottle opening. The U-shaped support member is attached and fixed, and the attachment members are detachably provided at both ends of the support bar, and both ends of the support bar are supported by the attachment members. The neck diameter portion including the bottle mouth portion is inserted into the opening of the support member, and the neck diameter portion including the bottle mouth portion is supported from below by the U-shaped support member to support the body diameter portion of the bottle. The support bar is supported from above. A description will be given below with reference to the drawings showing embodiments.
