Description

[Detailed description of the invention] The present invention relates to a glass stand, that is, a coaster, and in particular, allows arbitrary colored light to pass through the bottom of the glass placed on the coaster into the glass, so that an appropriate drink can be placed inside the glass. This invention relates to a coaster that has a light emitting part for the purpose of changing the color inside the glass.

It is well known that coasters made of paper, wood, metal, and more recently synthetic resin have been used to place glasses containing Western alcoholic beverages and the like. However, these known coasters only have patterns on their surfaces or have devised shapes.

In view of this problem, the present invention aims to improve the coaster on which the glass is simply placed, and to use the coaster to change the color of the drink in the glass. Specifically, a light-emitting device is provided inside, a light-transmitting part of an appropriate size and arbitrary shape is formed on the surface, and furthermore, a light-transmitting part of an appropriate color is formed between the light-emitting device and the light-transmitting part. The aim is to provide a coaster with a light-emitting part in which a converter is arranged to give even more color changes.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail based on the drawings.

To explain the first embodiment, a coaster 1 made of synthetic resin or the like has a circular dish-shaped main body 2.
It consists of a lid 3 attached to the main body 2 and a light emitting device 4 disposed inside the main body 2, and a peripheral wall 5 of the main body 2.
The inner surface is threaded so that the lid 3 can be screwed onto it. Further, a dish-shaped reflecting plate 6 is provided at the center of the interior of the main body 2, and a light emitting body 7 is attached to the bottom of the reflecting plate 6 to form a light emitting device 4. The light emitting body 7 communicates with a battery 8 which is also detachably installed inside the body through a resistor and a switch (none of which are shown).

The lid body 3 is also formed from a synthetic resin material or the like.
A peripheral edge 10 of an appropriate height is formed on the outer periphery of the top plate 9, and a transparent light-transmitting part 11 with the same diameter as the reflector plate 6 is provided in the center, and the area other than the light-transmitting part 11 is An appropriate colored layer 12 is provided on the lower surface of the top plate 9 to make it non-transparent. Incidentally, a screw portion 13 that is screwed into the main body 2 is provided on the lower surface.

The lid body 3 can be made of a non-transparent colored material except for the light transmitting part 11, and a transparent body can be buried in the opening made in the center, but water may leak inside due to its use as a coaster. Considering this, it is desirable that at least the top plate be molded in one piece.

Next, explaining the second example implemented by the applicant, the coaster 1 is composed of the main body 2, the lid 3, the light emitting device 4, etc.
Although it is the same as the embodiment, a color converter 14 is disposed at the bottom of a top plate 9 in which a light transmitting portion 11 is formed in the center. The color converter 14 has a cross-shaped groove 15 formed at an appropriate depth on the lower surface of the top plate 9 having the light transmitting part 11 formed in the center as described above, and the groove 15 has a light transmitting property. Moreover, a plurality of transparent colored bodies 16 having different colors such as red a, blue b, and yellow c are movably incorporated. Reference numeral 17 denotes a pressing plate that is press-fitted into a mounting groove 18 provided at the bottom of the groove 15 in order to incorporate the transparent colored body 16 into the groove 15, and has a window 19 of an appropriate size opened in the center. . still,
Inside the main body 2, a light emitting device 4 consisting of a reflector 6, a light emitter 7, a battery 8, etc. is built in, as in the first embodiment, and the lid 3 is configured to be screwed onto the main body 2 in the same manner.

In the first and second embodiments, the coaster 1 is circular and the lid 3 is screwed onto the main body 2, but the coaster 1 is square and the lid 3 is screwed onto the main body 2. Of course, it is also possible to do so.

As described above, the present invention is a coaster having a light-emitting section in which the light-emitting device 4 is provided inside and a light-transmitting section 11 of an appropriate size and arbitrary shape is formed on the top plate 9; Since this is a coaster having a light emitting section in which an appropriate color converter 14 is disposed between the light emitting device 4 and the light transmitting section 11, in the first embodiment, the light transmitting section 11 is provided with an appropriate color, for example, red. If you turn on the switch (not shown) and place a glass of Western liquor on the top plate 9 of the coaster 1, red light will be emitted from the light emitting device 4 through the light transmission section 11 colored red or the like. The light passes through the bottom of the glass and dyes the liquor and ice inside red. In particular, the ice inside is dyed red, giving it a ruby shine, giving it a unique and interesting look when drinking. Furthermore, in the case of the color converter 14 as in the second embodiment, when the coaster 1 is tilted in various directions, the color changes depending on the direction, for example, the transparent color shown in FIG. If the colored body 16 is arranged so that the red color a is at the top as shown in FIG. be. In this way, if you place a glass using the coaster 1 of this invention, you can enjoy the rich variety of colors of Western liquor, unlike the conventional colors of Western liquor, and if you tilt the coaster 1 in different directions, you can also It has a truly remarkable effect, such as different colors, that greatly arouses the excitement of drinking.
