Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft Trinkgefäße, welche mit einer Halterung für Lebensmittel versehen sind, insbesondere zur Halterung von Pralinen, Früchten oder Salzgebäck, und die Verwendung derartiger Halterungen auf Trinkgefäßen.The present invention relates to drinking vessels, which are provided with a holder for food, in particular for holding chocolates, fruits or savory biscuits, and the use of such holders on drinking vessels.

Es ist bekannt, dass Getränke oft im Stehen zu sich genommen werden und dass Lebensmittel hierzu gereicht werden. Weiterhin bekannt ist es, Tabletts zu reichen, auf denen ein Getränk abstellbar ist und auf denen die Lebensmittel in schalenförmigen Ausnehmungen aufgenommen werden. Trotzdem ist es schwierig, das Tablett in den Händen zu halten und Getränk und Lebensmittel im Stehen zu sich zu nehmen. Weiterhin ist es schwierig für eine Person zwei Tabletts zu transportieren, z.B. vom Büfett oder von dort, wo sie erworben werden, ohne dass die Gefahr besteht, dass die Gläser umkippen oder Speisen verrutschen.It is well known that drinks are often taken while standing and that food is served. It is also known to reach trays on which a drink can be stored and on which the food is received in cup-shaped recesses. Nevertheless, it is difficult to hold the tray in your hands and to drink and eat while standing up. Furthermore, it is difficult for a person to transport two trays, e.g. from the buffet or from where they are purchased, without the risk of the glasses falling over or food slipping.

Aus der US 6,021,914 und aus der US 6,062,418 sind Tabletts bekannt, die eine Halterung für ein Glas und eine Ablage für Lebensmittel aufweisen, wobei das Glas im Tablett so gehaltert ist, dass es nicht umkippen kann. Aus der DE 1890712 ist eine Manschette mit Durchbrechung für ein Ei als Kleckerschutz für Eierbecher bekannt.From the US 6,021,914 and from the US 6,062,418 Trays are known which have a holder for a glass and a shelf for food, wherein the glass is held in the tray so that it can not tip over. From the DE 1890712 is a cuff with opening for an egg known as Kleckerschutz for egg cups.

Oft ist es aber gewünscht, im Wesentlichen nur das Getränk zu sich zu nehmen und nur eine Kleinigkeit zu essen, wobei diese Kleinigkeit mit dem Getränk gereicht wird und es weiterhin wünschenswert ist, wenn Getränke für zumindest zwei Personen nebst Essbarem von einer Person bestellt, bezahlt und transportiert werden können. Für Anlässe wie einen Empfang, eine Opern- oder Musicalpause, ist es nicht erforderlich und auch nicht gewünscht, ein ganzes Tablett bereitzustellen.Often, however, it is desired to essentially take only the drink and eat only a small thing, this little thing is served with the drink and it is still desirable if drinks ordered for at least two people along with edibles from a person and can be transported. For occasions such as a reception, an opera or musical break, it is not necessary and not desired to provide a whole tray.

Andererseits ist es bekannt, an Gläsern insbesondere Obst mit Klammern zu befestigen. Auch bekannt ist aus der GB 2354932 , eine Kunststoff-Halterung an den Glasrand zu klammern, sodass seitlich an der Glaswand Boxen zur Lagerung von Gewürzen, Zucker oder etwa Schokoladenpulver bereitgestellt werden.On the other hand, it is known to attach glasses to particular fruit with staples. Also known is from the GB 2354932 to cling a plastic holder to the edge of the glass so that boxes are provided on the side of the glass wall for storing spices, sugar or chocolate powder.

Weiterhin sind Trinkgefäße bekannt, denen deckelartige Verschlüsse oder runde Hohlkörper mit Bodenfläche aufgesetzt sind, die zur Aufnahme von Lebensmitteln dienen können.Furthermore, drinking vessels are known, which lid-like closures or round hollow body are placed with bottom surface, which can serve to receive food.

Die deckelartigen Verschlüsse oder Hohlkörper rasten bündig auf dem oberen Rand des Trinkgefäßes auf oder sind entlang der inneren Seitenwände des Trinkgefäßes passgenau eingeschoben. Beispiele derartiger Ausführungsformen sind Gegenstand der US 3,323,707 und der DE 298 21 175-U1 .The lid-like closures or hollow bodies snap flush on the upper edge of the drinking vessel or are inserted accurately along the inner side walls of the drinking vessel. Examples of such embodiments are the subject of US 3,323,707 and the DE 298 21 175-U1 ,

Das Deutsche Gebrauchsmuster beschreibt eine löffelartige Halterung mit Schlitz für ein Trinkgefäß zur Aufnahme eines Zuckerstückes, das unter Abbrennen durch den Schlitz in das Trinkgefäß tropfen soll. Die Halterung ist aus Metall und das Zuckerstück kann durch den Schlitz nicht in einer Welse nach unten In das Trinkgefäß ragen, dass die Halterung hierdurch gegen seitliches Verschieben gesichert ist.The German Utility Model describes a spoon-like holder with slot for a drinking vessel for receiving a sugar piece, which is to drip while burning through the slot in the drinking vessel. The holder is made of metal and the sugar piece can not protrude through the slot in a catfish down into the drinking vessel, that the holder is thereby secured against lateral displacement.

Aus der WO 03/088750 A1 ist eine wannenförmige essbare Auflage für ein Trinkgefäß (ohne Durchbrechung) bekannt (vergleiche Fig. 25), die der Lagerung von Snacks auf einem Trinkgefäß dienen soll.From the WO 03/088750 A1 is a trough-shaped edible support for a drinking vessel (without opening) known (see Fig. 25), which is to serve the storage of snacks on a drinking vessel.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, eine einfache Halterung für essbare Gegenstände bereitzustellen, die mit dem Glas transportiert werden kann und wenig Platz in Anspruch nimmt, sodass eine Vielzahl eingeschenkter Gläser nebst essbarem Gegenstand z.B. auf einer Theke nebeneinander aufgestellt und zum Verkauf bzw. Verzehr angeboten werden kann. Ein und dieselbe Halterung soll weiterhin für unterschiedliche Gläser, insbesondere unterschiedliche Glasdurchmesser geeignet sein und überdies vorteilhafterweise auch auf engem Raum stapelbar sein.The object of the present invention is to provide a simple holder for edible objects, which can be transported with the glass and takes up little space, so that a plurality of inserted glasses together with edible article, e.g. placed side by side on a counter and can be offered for sale or consumption. One and the same holder should continue to be suitable for different glasses, in particular different glass diameters and, moreover, advantageously also be stackable in a small space.

Diese und andere Aufgaben werden durch das erfindungsgemäße Trinkgefäß mit Halterung und essbarem Gegenstand gemäß Anspruch 1 gelöst.These and other objects are achieved by the inventive drinking vessel with holder and edible article according to claim 1.

Bevorzugte Ausführungeformen sind Gegenstand der weiteren Ansprüche oder nachfolgend beschrieben.Preferred embodiments are the subject matter of the further claims or described below.

Die Halterung kann - soweit gewünscht - neben dem essbaren Gegenstand auch weitere Gegenstände aufnehmen, etwa Servietten, Besteck, auch aus Kunststoff, oder sonstige Hilfsmittel, wie Spieße oder Strohhalme. Soweit die Halterung eine Vertiefung aufweist, kann diese Unterteilungen bzw. mehrere Vertiefungen aufweisen.The holder can - if desired - in addition to the edible object and other objects include, such as napkins, cutlery, plastic, or other aids, such as skewers or straws. As far as the holder has a depression, it may have subdivisions or more depressions.

Wenn die Halterung aus einem essbaren Material gefertigt ist, so kann dieses Material z.B. aus Waffelteig hergestellt sein, eine geformte Oblate sein, aus Esspapier oder Fondant-Papier bestehen und/oder ein Zuckererzeugnis sein bzw. umfassen, z.B. Schokolade oder Krokant. Es ist prinzipiell auch möglich, dass die Halterung aus Edelstahl, Glas oder Keramik gefertigt ist.If the holder is made of an edible material, this material may e.g. be made of waffle dough, be a shaped wafer, be made of edible paper or fondant paper and / or be a sugar product, e.g. Chocolate or brittle. It is also possible in principle that the holder is made of stainless steel, glass or ceramic.

Die Halterung ist allseitig nur lose und verschieblich auf dem Trinkgefäßrand aufliegend ausgebildet und von diesem ohne Werkzeuge mit einer Hand leicht entfernbar. Die Halterung ist vorzugsweise mit den Fingern greif- und ohne Drehbewegung abnehmbar, ohne dass die Finger der abnehmenden Hand das Trinkgefäß berühren müssen. Weiter bevorzugt überdeckt die Halterung einschließlich des essbaren Gegenstandes die gesamte Trinkgefäßöffnung, auch um zu verhindern, dass aufgenommene essbare Gegenstände versehentlich in das Getränk fallen. Die Halterung ist vorzugsweise so groß, dass sie, wenn auf den Gefäßrand aufgelegt, diesen allseitig im Mittel um zumindest 3 mm überragt. So kann diese aufgesetzt und abgenommen werden ohne den Trinkrand des Trinkgefäßes mit den Händen zu berühren.The holder is on all sides only loosely and displaceably formed on the drinking vessel edge and easily removable from this without tools with one hand. The holder is preferably removable with the fingers and without rotational movement, without the fingers of the waning hand must touch the drinking vessel. More preferably, the holder, including the edible article, covers the entire drinking vessel opening, also to prevent ingested edible objects from accidentally falling into the beverage. The holder is preferably so large that, when placed on the edge of the container, it protrudes on all sides on average by at least 3 mm. So this can be put on and taken off without touching the drinking rim of the drinking vessel with your hands.

Die Halterung kann am Durchbrechungsrand eine konisch nach unten und innen sich verjüngende Krempe aufweisen, die dafür Sorge trägt, dass auch essbare Gegenstände variierenden Umfangs von der Durchbrechung gehalten werden, weil die Krempe weiter unten einen kleineren Öffnungsdurchmesser freigibt als die Durchbrechung oben. Trotzdem bleibt die Halterung stapelbar.The holder may have at the opening edge a conically downwardly and inwardly tapering brim, which ensures that even edible objects of varying size are held by the aperture, because the brim further releases a smaller aperture diameter than the aperture at the top. Nevertheless, the bracket remains stackable.

Es ist auch möglich, dass die Halterung Einschnitte und/oder schnittartige Ausstanzungen aufweist, auf die der essbare Gegenstände unter leichtem Druck aufgesetzt wird, um die lamellenartigen Stege nach unten biegsam auszuwölben und die Durchbrechung freizugeben. Hierbei können kürzere Stege den essbaren Gegenstand im Umfang einklemmen.It is also possible that the holder has cuts and / or cut-like cutouts on which the edible objects are placed under slight pressure in order to bulge the lamellar webs downwards in a flexible manner and to release the opening. This shorter webs can pinch the edible object in the scope.

Der Gegenstand der Erfindung wird durch die Figuren 1 und 2 näher erläutert. Es zeigen:

  • Fig. 1 ein Sektglas mit einer Praline gehaltert in einer Auflage mit Ausnehmung zur Aufnahme der Praline.
  • Fig. 2 zeigt die Praline, die Halterung und das Sektglas in einer Explosionszeichnung.
The object of the invention is characterized by the Figures 1 and 2 explained in more detail. Show it:
  • Fig. 1 A champagne glass with a praline held in a support with a recess for receiving the praline.
  • Fig. 2 shows the praline, the holder and the champagne glass in an exploded view.

Auf einem mit Sekt oder Champagner gefüllten Trinkgefäß (1), vorliegend eine Sektflöte, ist ein essbarer Gegenstand (2), vorliegend eine Praline, in einer flachen Halterung (3) mit runder Ausnehmung (4) gelagert. Die Halterung (3) ist allseitig auf den Rand (5) des Trinkgefäßes aufgelegt. Die Praline (2) läuft nach unten konisch zu, so dass sie etwa 1/3 oben und 2/3 unten bis 2/3 oben 1/3 unten - in Bezug auf die Randflächen der Halterung - in der Halterung gelagert ist. Die Halterung reicht um einen Überstand (6) über den Rand (5) des Trinkgefäßes hinweg, sodass, wenn sich die Halterung auf dem Trinkgefäßrand von der konzentrischen Anordnung weg zu einer Seite bewegt, z.B. bei einer Schräglage des Glases, die Praline bis an die innere Gefäßwand heranrückt, ohne dass die Halterung über den Rand hinweggleiten kann oder die Halterung oder die Praline in das Glas hineinfallen kann.On a filled with sparkling wine or champagne drinking vessel (1), in this case a champagne flute, an edible object (2), in this case a praline, in a flat holder (3) with a round recess (4) stored. The holder (3) is placed on all sides on the edge (5) of the drinking vessel. The chocolate (2) tapers downwards so that it is about 1/3 above and 2/3 down to 2/3 above 1/3 below - in relation to the edge surfaces of the holder - stored in the holder. The holder extends around a projection (6) over the rim (5) of the drinking vessel so that when the holder on the drinking vessel edge moves away from the concentric arrangement to one side, e.g. with a tilt of the glass, the praline to zoom up to the inner vessel wall, without the holder can slide over the edge or the holder or praline can fall into the glass.
