Abstract
A champagne glass set in the present invention has a container, a positioning plate and a plurality of glass pieces as main components. The positioning plate has a ring groove disposed at its bottom and a pan-like supporting surface provided with a plurality of holes and inserting recesses disposed therein. The glass pieces can be inserted in centralization into the holes of the supporting surface and placed on the container after being poured with champagne. Moreover, if the positioning plate is taken out of the container and directly placed on a top surface of a table, bottoms of holding stems of the glass pieces can be inserted into the inserting recesses of the supporting surface of the positioning plate and stood erect in the positioning plate with steadiness. Therefore, the champagne glass set is convenient in use, steady in placement without falling, occupied little space, and easy to be stored.
Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates to a champagne glass set, particularly to one permitting a plurality of glass pieces to be inserted in centralization into a plurality of holes or inserting recesses of a supporting surface of a positioning plate with steadiness, which is very convenient in use and occupied with little space. Moreover, the glass pieces all located in one supporting surface can obtain larger area on a top surface of a table to prevent their falling after being bumped.
2. Description of the Prior Art
Generally speaking, bottles of champagne in banquets mostly are kept cool in containers filled with ice cubes therein to make champagne more delicious in drinking. There are many champagne glasses placed on a table and filled with champagne for guests. However, the champagne glasses and the containers carried with champagne bottles and ice cubes occupy too much space on the table so that the champagne glasses are very likely to be tipped over or fallen down to the ground to be broken after being bumped with carelessness. It is also required to have larger space to store the containers and the champagne glasses. Moreover, the way of having the containers and the champagne glasses stored in separate places often requires users to take a lot of time to recall and find out the places where the containers and the champagne glasses are stored after a period of time.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The main purpose of the invention is to offer a champagne glass set that is very convenient in use, steady in placement without falling and occupied with little space for placement and storage.
The main feature of the invention is to provide a champagne glass set having a container, a positioning plate and a plurality of glass pieces as main components, wherein the container has a circumferential edge formed at its top surface and two handles respectively disposed in its two opposite outer walls; the positioning plate capable of being covered on the container has a ring groove disposed at its bottom for being covered and located on the circumferential edge of the top surface of the container and a pan-like supporting surface provided with a through hole in a center of the supporting surface as well as a plurality of holes disposed therein; the plurality of glass pieces are capable of being inserted in the supporting surface of the positioning plate and each of the glass pieces has a holding stem disposed at its lower portion.

FIG. 1
is an exploded perspective view of a champagne glass set in the present invention;
FIG. 2
is a perspective view of the champagne glass set in the present invention;
FIG. 3
is a side cross-sectional view of the champagne glass set in the present invention; and,
FIG. 4
is a schematic view showing the usage of the champagne glass set in the present invention.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
A first preferred embodiment of a champagne glass set in the present invention, as shown in
FIG. 1
, includes a container
1
, a positioning plate
2
and a plurality of glass pieces
3
as main components. The container
1
has a circumferential edge formed at its top surface in a outward-expanded shape and two handles
11
respectively disposed in its two opposite outer walls. The positioning plate
2
capable of being covered on the container
1
has a ring groove
20
disposed at a bottom of the positioning plate
2
and a pan-like supporting surface
21
provided with a through hole
22
in a center of the supporting surface
21
as well as a plurality of holes
23
and inserting recesses
24
interseptally disposed therein. Each of the inserting recesses
24
has a non-slipping pad
25
disposed at its bottom. The plurality of glass pieces
3
are capable of being inserted in the holes
23
or the inserting recesses
24
of the supporting surface
21
of the positioning plate
2
and each of glass pieces
3
has a holding stem
30
disposed at its lower portion.
In assembling, referring to
FIGS. 2 and 3
, firstly cover the positioning plate
2
on the container
1
by having the ring groove
20
at the bottom of the positioning plate
2
to be engaged with the circumferential edge
10
of the top surface of the container
1
so as to have the positioning plate
2
located on the top surface of the container
1
. Secondly, insert the holding stems
30
of the glass pieces
3
respectively into the holes
23
of the supporting surface
21
of the positioning plate
2
and have the holding stems
30
of the glass pieces
3
extended downward into the container
1
, by which the assemblage of the whole structure is completed and the glass pieces
3
as well as the container
1
can be placed together for storage with little space.
In using, referring to
FIGS. 2
,
3
and
4
, firstly place ice cubes
4
and a champagne bottle
5
into the container
1
. Secondly, cover the positioning plate
2
on the container
1
by having the ring groove
20
at the bottom of the positioning plate
2
to be engaged with the circumferential edge
10
of the top surface of the container
1
so as to have the positioning plate
2
located on the top surface of the container
1
and allowing an upper portion of the champagne bottle
5
to be extended upward out of the through hole
22
of the supporting surface
21
of the positioning plate
2
. Thirdly, insert the holding stems
30
of the glass pieces
3
respectively into the holes
23
of the supporting surface
21
of the positioning plate
2
so as to have the holding stems
30
of the glass pieces
3
extended downward into the container
1
. And then, hold the handles
11
of the container
1
with two hands and move the glass pieces
3
and the container
1
together to a dinner table. After pouring champagne into the glass pieces
3
, insert them into the positioning plate
2
to be ready for drinking, by which the ice cubes
4
in the container
1
can provide champagne with cool temperature to keep its original delicious flavor in a longer period, avoiding its flavor becoming insipid under the higher temperature in the circumference.
Moreover, the positioning plate
2
is capable of being taken out of the container
1
and directly placed on the top surface of the table, as shown in FIG.
4
. The non-slipping pads
25
disposed at the bottoms of the inserting recesses
24
of the positioning plate
2
can keep the positioning plate
2
stably stood on the top surface of the table without slipping. At the moment, the bottoms of the holding stems
30
of the glass pieces
3
are capable of being inserted into the inserting recesses
24
of the supporting surface
21
of the positioning plate
2
and stood erect in the positioning plate
2
with steadiness, which is very convenient in use and occupied little space for placement. Moreover, the glass pieces
3
all located in one supporting surface can obtain a larger area on the top surface of the table and are stood more steadily by having the positioning plate
2
acted as their common base to prevent their falling after being bumped.
While the preferred embodiment of the invention has been described above, it will be recognized and understood that various modifications may be made therein and the appended claims are intended to cover all such modifications that may fall within the spirit and scope of the invention.
