Each supporting frame 12 has a rectangle shape and is made of the same material as the supporting base 11. In this embodiment, it is a wooden structure which is aesthetically pleasing and suitable for various occasions such as exhibitions, ornament displaying in shopping malls, and storage of ornaments, jewelries, or earrings in stores or at home.


In this embodiment, the hanging assembly 30 comprises a plurality of hanging holders 31 and two hanging meshes 32 on the supporting frames 12 to hang the ornaments 60.


In this embodiment, the hanging holders 31 are implemented as metal crossbars which are spacedly arranged between the two supporting frames 12 and are connected to the two frames 12 to increase the stability of the supporting frames 12.


In this embodiment, preferably, one of the hanging holders 31 is set at a top side of the two supporting frames 12, i.e. two ends of the hanging holder 31 are connected to the top side of the supporting frames 12, so as to connect the two supporting frames 12 from the top and increase stability.


Multiple other hanging holders 31 can be connected at intervals between the two supporting frames 12, so as to connect the two supporting frames 12 from top to bottom at intervals and increase the stability of the two supporting frames 12, and form multiple holding arms for hanging the ornaments 60, so that the left hanging side 103 and the right hanging side 104 of the stand body 10 are configured by the hanging holders 31, and the ornaments 60 can be hung on the left hanging side 103 and the right hanging side 104 of the stand body 10 by the hanging holders 31.


Each hanging holder 31 comprises a connecting bar 311, and has a plurality of hanging grooves 312 and a plurality of circular hanging holes 313. The plurality of hanging grooves 312 is alternately arranged in an upper part of the connecting bar 311, and the plurality of hanging holes 313 are alternately arranged in the lower part of the connecting bar 311. The positions of the hanging holes 313 is preferred to be in the same straight line as the bottoms of the hanging grooves 312. Due to the need to hang the ornaments 60 through the hanging grooves 312 and hanging holes 313, different structures can hang different styles of ornaments 60, so as to increase versatility. After the ornaments 60 are hung at the hanging holes 313 and the bottoms of the hanging grooves 312, the hanging positions of the ornaments 60 are in the same straight line, making it neat and more beautiful.


Two hanging meshes 32 are respectively provided on the two supporting frames 12, i.e. four sides of each hanging mesh 32 are connected to four sides of the corresponding supporting frame 12. The hanging mesh 32 and the corresponding supporting frame 12 form a planar structure. The ornaments 60 can be hung on the entire hanging mesh 32, and the supporting frame 12 supports the corresponding hanging mesh 32 and the ornaments, thereby ensuring stability.


The hanging mesh 32 comprises a plurality of mesh wires 321 and has a plurality of mesh holes 322. After the plurality of mesh wires are cross-connected, the plurality of mesh holes 322 is defined in a predetermined configuration. The ornaments 60 can be hung by the mesh wires 321 at the mesh holes 322, and the ornaments 60 can be hung in different mesh holes 322 according to the user's preference. Therefore, the ornaments 60 can be arranged in different positions on the same hanging mesh 32, making it convenient to hang, easy to adjust, and is time saving and labor saving, so that it is able to meet the different needs of the user.


After the hanging assembly 30 is arranged on the stand body 10, the hanging holders 31 are arranged at two opposite sides of the access passage 40. The two hanging meshes 32 and the two supporting frames 12 are arranged at the other two opposite sides of the access passage 40. The ornaments 60 can be hung on the hanging holders 31 and the hanging meshes 32 from the outside of the stand body 10. The hanging position of each ornament 60 can also be adjusted by reaching the hand of the user into the access passage 40. The access passage 40 can be used for hanging, fixing, moving, and removing the ornaments 60. In particular, for an ear stud, in order to prevent a plug from getting lost and ensure the stability of the hanging, the plug is often placed at the back of the hanging ear stud. When connecting or removing the plug, one can reach his or her hand into the access passage 40 and put on or remove the plug from the back of the ear stud while using the other hand to hold on the ear stud.


In this embodiment, due to the fact that the supporting frame 12 is rectangular, the access passage 40 can also be rectangular. Furthermore, the hanging holders 31 are connected at the outside of the supporting frames 12 between the two supporting frames 12, and each hanging mesh 32 is connected in the corresponding supporting frame 12, without occupying an internal space of the stand body 10. Therefore, the rectangular access passage 40 has a relative large space, making it easier to reach in and take the ornament accessory such as plugs behind the ear studs or perform other operations.


In this embodiment, each supporting frame 12 is rectangular, and the supporting base 11 is also rectangular. Each supporting frame 12, which is installed at two opposite edges of the supporting base 11, has a height of 30 cm and a width of 18 cm, and each hanging holder 31 also has a width of 18 cm matching the supporting frames 12 for aesthetic purposes. Particularly, the supporting base 11 has a square shape with a thickness of 1.5 cm and a side length of 18 cm, and is connected to the supporting frames 12 in a matching manner. While ensuring stability, each of the four sides of the supporting frames 12 has a thickness of 1 cm, which not only ensures aesthetics and saves materials, but also provides a relatively large space for the access passage 40.


The turntable 20 comprise a rotating disc which is installed on a bottom of the supporting base 11. The supporting base 11 is square, the turntable 20 is circular and arranged corresponding to a central area of the supporting base 11, so that the center of gravity of the entire ornament carousel holder is concentrated on the turntable 20, and a diameter of the turntable 20 is smaller than the side length of the supporting base 11 so as to hidden the turntable 20 under the supporting base 11. When the ornament carousel holder is placed on a desktop or on the ground, the turntable 20 has a contact with the desktop or the ground and supports the stand body 10 of the ornament carousel holder, and the supporting base 11 does not have contact with the desktop or ground. By controlling the thickness of the turntable 20, it can ensure that the stand body 10 of the ornament carousel holder can rotate smoothly and stably above the turntable 20, and the turntable 20 is not visible from the outside, which takes into account both aesthetics and practicality.


The turntable 20 has a predetermined weight and surface area, and can stably support the stand body 10 of the ornament carousel holder and the hanging ornaments 60. It can effectively prevent the tipping over of the ornament carousel holder during the rotation process.


Regarding the conventional display rack, it is prone to tip over during rotation. If a valuable ornament is hung on it, it can cause serious damage. However, in this invention, the ornament carousel holder increases the weight of the turntable 20 and adjusts the configuration of the turntable 20 and the stand body 10 of the ornament carousel holder and maintain a steady center of gravity, making it more stable and preventing tipping over, thus ensuring high safety.


Referring to FIG. 7, an ornament carousel holder according to a second preferred embodiment of the present invention is illustrated.

Each supporting frame 12A is a wooden frame structure, and the hanging assembly 30A comprises four hanging meshes 32A connected to the two supporting frames 12A. After the connection, the hanging meshes 32A form four hanging sides of the stand body 10A of the ornament carousel holder.


Each hanging mesh 32A comprise a plurality of mesh wires 321A which is intersect to form a plurality of mesh holes 322A. The combination of the mesh wires 321A and the mesh holes 322A forms a hanging area for hanging the ornaments 60.


After the hanging meshes 32A are connected to the two supporting frames 12A, the four sides of the hanging mesh 32A are connected to the corresponding supporting frames 12A to form the access passage 40A. Due to the thinness of the two supporting frames 12A can be thin, and the hanging meshes 32A occupy a few space. Therefore, the access passage 40A has a relatively enough space, thereby making it more convenient to reach behind the ear studs on the hanging meshes 32A to take the plugs. During the process of taking, the larger space of the access passage 40A ensures that the hand does not touch other parts, enabling more accurate retrieval of the ornaments 60 from a specific position, which is beneficial for protecting other ornaments 60.


The turntable 20A comprises a rotating disc below the supporting base 11A, and has a predetermined proportional weight relationship with the supporting base 11A. Both the turntable 20A and the stand body 10A are configured to have predetermined weights, so as to enable the turntable 20A to stably support the stand body 10A. After hanging the ornaments 60, there will be no tipping over or other situations occurring during rotation.
