Description

[Detailed description of the invention] <Industrial application field> This invention is designed to prevent dew condensation that forms around the glass when a cold drink is poured into the glass, and to prevent heat from being transferred to the hands when a hot drink is poured into the glass. This relates to a glass holder used to prevent glasses from dripping and make them easier to hold.

<Prior Art> Conventional glass holders include those in which a tapered glass is simply placed, and those in which the glass is provided with unevenness and held using the elasticity of the holder.

〈Problem that the invention aims to solve〉 However, if it is just a thing to put a glass on,
The glass may easily come off from the holder, and there is a risk that the glass may tip or fall unexpectedly.
In addition, creating irregularities on the glass requires time and effort to process the glass itself, and if the glass dimensions vary widely, it may be difficult to fit the glass into the holder, and the glass may not be able to be held completely, or it may be difficult to fit the glass into the holder. If you tried to push it in, you risked breaking the glass.

The present invention was devised in view of the above-mentioned problems, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a glass holder that can securely and safely hold a glass without being affected by variations in the dimensions of the glass. With the goal.

<Means for Solving the Problems> In order to achieve the above object, the glass holder of the present invention includes an elastic ring having a cutout at the bottom and an elastic piece protruding inward, and an upper inner wall formed from the elastic piece. It is fitted onto the upper part of the main body of a bottomed cylindrical body, which is cut to a thickness that allows the elastic ring to fit into the thin stepped part, and the outer surface of the main body and the side surface of the elastic ring are covered with a cover.

<Operation> When a glass is inserted into the main body along the inner surface of the elastic ring, the elastic piece provided at the bottom of the elastic ring presses the outer surface of the glass, thereby clamping and fixing the glass.

<Example> Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained in detail with reference to the illustrated example.

FIG. 1 is an exploded perspective view showing an embodiment of the glass holder of the present invention, in which 1 is an elastic ring, 2 is a main body, 3 is a decorative plate, and 4 is a cover.

FIG. 2 is a vertical cross-sectional view of the assembled state;
An elastic ring 1 is fitted on the top of the main body 2, and a decorative plate 3 is fixed on the bottom 1a of the main body 1.
Furthermore, a cover 4 is placed over the outer surface of the main body 2 and the outer surface of the elastic ring 1 except for the upper end.
Here, the decorative plate 3 and the cover 4 are bonded to the main body with an adhesive, but they may be fixed by other methods.

As shown in FIGS. 3a and 3b, the elastic ring 1 is
It has an elastic piece 1a which is cut out at the bottom and inclined inward, a groove 1b' is suitably formed on the outer surface 1b, and the upper end is made to protrude outward as a flange 1c.

As shown in FIGS. 4a, b, and c, the main body 2 is a cylindrical body with a bottom, and the inner wall surface of the side wall 2a is made thin enough to fit into the elastic piece 1a of the elastic ring 1. A step part 2d for fixing the decorative plate 3 is formed on the bottom part 2c, a recessed part 2e for storing adhesive is formed, and a pin gate 2f for molding is formed from the back side. , air vent holes 2g are bored at predetermined locations.

The decorative plate 3 has a decorative effect by drawing pictures, designs, characters, etc. on its surface, or by reflecting light as a metal such as aluminum.

Further, the cover 4 is used to increase the strength of the main body and to make the appearance beautiful, and is made of metal such as aluminum or copper.

With the above configuration, the elastic piece 1a bent inwardly and protruding below the elastic ring 1 has elasticity, so when a glass is inserted along the inner surface of the elastic ring 1, the elastic piece 1a presses against the outer surface of the glass to securely clamp and fix the glass.

In the above embodiment, the elastic ring 1 includes 6
Although the number of elastic pieces 1a is formed, it goes without saying that the number, shape, etc. thereof can be changed as appropriate.

<Effects of the Invention> As described above, the glass holder of the present invention has an elastic ring with an elastic piece formed at the bottom that is fitted onto the main body, and the periphery is covered with a cover, so that the glass holder is able to absorb the elasticity of the elastic piece. Therefore, even if there are slight variations in the outside diameter of the glass, the glass can be securely and safely clamped and fixed, and even if a hot beverage is placed inside the glass, the heat will not easily transfer, making it easy to hold. be able to. Moreover, by attaching a cover, the aesthetic appearance can be improved.

Moreover, since the structure is simple, it is easy to manufacture and can be provided at low cost, which is a practical advantage.
