DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS

The invention is further described below in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments.


Referring to FIGS. 1-6, the rotary coffee bag holder includes a base 1 and a center pillar 2 disposed thereon, the center pillar 2 is rotatably coupled to a coffee bag holder 3, wherein an upper end of the coffee bag holder 3 is provided with a first turntable 31, a lower end is provided with a second turntable 32, a top end of the center pillar 2 is provided with a connecting seat 4, and the center pillar 2 passes through the second turntable 32, such that the connecting seat 4 is engaged with the first turntable 31, and a top surface of the connecting seat 4 is provided with a boss 41 against the first turntable 31.


The first turntable 31 of the coffee bag holder 3 is rotatably connected with the center pillar 2 through the connecting seat 4, thereby realizing the rotation function of the coffee bag holder, and the rotation function of the coffee bag holder does not need to be provided with bearings, thereby effectively reducing the manufacturing cost, and the rotation is flexible and smooth. Moreover, the connecting seat 4 can be made of plastic or metal or plastic and metal fusion structure, wherein the plastic has self-lubricating property as a best embodiment, and the rotational friction between the first turntable 31 and the center pillar 2 is smaller with lower noise, the rotation of the coffee bag holder 3 is smoother. The second turntable 32 has a limit structure (below for detail), so that the entire coffee bag holder 3 does not shake, and the coffee bag holder rotates more quietly.


Further, the connecting seat 4 has a cylindrical shape, the top end of which is rotatably connected to the seat cover 311 disposed at the middle of the first turntable 31, and the bottom end is inserted and fixed at the top end of the center pillar 2. The seat cover 311 serves as limiting for the connecting seat 4, and the insertion and removal is convenient, the bottom end of the seat cover 311 can be fixed at the top end of the center pillar 2 that positioning is achieved.


Moreover, the side portion of the connecting base 4 is provided with a limit step 42 abutting against the top end of the seat cover 311 and/or the center pillar 2. In the embodiment, preferably, the limit step 42 abutting against the upper end of the center pillar 2 is disposed at the side of the first plastic rotating shaft 4, and the limit step 42 limits the assembly of the connecting seat 4 and the center pillar 2.


Further, the second turntable 32 and the second turntable 32 are mounted with a limit sleeve 5, and the limit sleeve 5 is provided with a limit shaft hole 54 adapted to pass through the center pillar 2. The limit sleeve 5 constitutes the aforementioned limit structure, and is preferably made of PP plastic, which can effectively reduce the noise generated by the collision between the limit sleeve 5 and the center pillar 2 when the second turntable 32 is rotated or transported.


Further, the outer portion of the limit sleeve 5 is provided with a concave buckle groove 51, and the center of the second turntable 32 is provided with a turntable hole position 3201 (specifically, a hole position at which the second turntable 32 and the limit sleeve 5 are fitted and matched), The turntable hole position 3201 is sleeved in the buckle groove 51 to ensure that the second turntable 32 is accurately and stably mounted with the limit sleeve 5, so as to avoid the virtual position of the assembly of the two.


Further, the lower portion of the side wall of the limit sleeve 5 is provided with a slope 52 for inserting the turntable hole position. The upper portion of the side wall is provided with a step 53 for abutting against the end surface of the second turntable 32. The arrangement of the slope 52 is convenient for inserting the second turntable hole position 3201 of the turntable 32, and the upper part of the side wall is provided with a step 53 for abutting against the end surface of the second turntable 32, which functions as a limit and anti-off.


Further, the lower end side wall of the center pillar 2 is provided with a limit block 6. The lower end of the limit block 6 is adjacent to the limit sleeve 5, and the limit block 6 is fixed to the lower end side wall of the center pillar 2 by the rivet 61. (The limit block 6 of the embodiment is close to the limit sleeve 5, so that the whole coffee bag holder 3 does not have a large virtual position when transported or used, and the structure is more compact); the assembly manner of the limit block 6 is that the limit block 6 is fixed to the lower end side wall of the center pillar 2 by a rivet 61.


Further, the limit block 6 is provided with a waist-shaped hole 62, and the rivet 61 is inserted into the waist-shaped hole 62 to be installed with the center pillar 2, and the length of the waist-shaped hole 62 is larger than the diameter of the rivet 61. The spacing between the limit block 6 and the limit sleeves 5, since that the length of the waist hole 62 is larger than the stud diameter of the rivet 61, the rivet can be finely adjusted up and down by adjusting the limit block 6, and the fine adjustment function is caused by the production process, resulting that the difference between the limit block 6 and the limit sleeve 5 is different in each product. The operation is simple and reliable by the fine adjustment in the above manner; the structure is more compact.


The waist-shaped hole or the elongated hole 62 allows the limit block 6 to move up and down with respect to the rivet 61, thereby adjusting the upper and lower positions, and the tolerance adapting range is larger. The two states after fine adjustment are shown in FIG. 5 and FIG. 6.


Further, the coffee bag holder 3 is provided with a plurality of layers of coffee bag shelves 33 from top to bottom to accommodate more coffee bags.


The boss 41 is a spherical surface or an approximately spherical surface or a boss having a tip portion. The common feature of the structures is that the area against which the boss 41 abuts the first turntable 31 is reduced.


The center pillar 2 is fixed to the base 1 by bolts 7 and a nut 9 fixed in the center pillar 2.


A soft pad 8 is also mounted in the base 1 to prevent the base 1 from scratching the table surface of the coffee bag holder of the present disclosure.


Wherein, the side surface of the limit block 6 is provided with a curved surface 602 that cooperates with the central pillar 2.


The above is a preferred embodiment of the invention, showing and describing the basic principles, main features and advantages of the invention. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the present disclosure is not limited by the foregoing embodiments, and that the present disclosure is described in the foregoing description of the embodiments and the specification of the invention.
