Abstract

A fixing plate structure for containers includes a fixing plate having a body. The body is formed in a polygon shape and has at least one through hole defined thereon, a plurality of slits radially and isometrically extending from an outer peripheral side of each of the at least one through hole, and plural tongues formed around the outer peripheral side of the each of the at least one through hole. Thereby, the fixing plate is used to fit and fix at least one container securely by ways of the at least one through hole.

Description

    FIELD OF THE INVENTION
  • The present invention relates to a fixing plate structure for containers which is used to fit and fix at least one container securely by ways of at least one through hole.
    • BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
  • Alcohol, beverages and other beverage containers are formed in a cylinder shape, so when the containers fall, they roll easily, thus breaking the containers made of glasses.
  • To solve such a problem, a container rack is developed, but such a container rack cannot be fitted onto at least one container so as to fix the at least one container securely.
  • The present invention has arisen to mitigate and/or obviate the afore-described disadvantages.
    • SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
  • The primary object of the present invention is to provide a fixing plate structure for containers which is used to fit and fix at least one container securely by ways of at least one through hole.
  • To obtain the above objectives, a fixing plate structure for containers includes a fixing plate having a body.
  • The body is formed in a polygon shape and has at least one through hole defined thereon, a plurality of slits radially and isometrically extending from an outer peripheral side of each of the at least one through hole, and plural tongues formed around the outer peripheral side of the each of the at least one through hole.
  • The body has a folding line formed thereon so as to fold the fixing plate in half along the folding line, such that two of the at least one through hole correspond to each other.
  • Slits and tongues of one of two through holes correspond to those of another of the two through holes after folding the fixing plate in half.
  • The body is formed in a shape by selecting from a quadrangle, a pentagon, and a hexagon.
  • The fixing plate is made of paper material so as to obtain flexibility.
  • The fixing plate is made of plastic material so as to obtain flexibility.
    • BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing the assembly of a fixing plate structure for containers according to a first embodiment of the present invention.
  • FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing the operation of the fixing plate structure for the containers according to the first embodiment of the present invention.
  • FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing the assembly of a fixing structure for containers according to a second embodiment of the present invention.
  • FIG. 4 is a perspective view showing a fixing plate being folded in half and fitted onto a container according to the second embodiment of the present invention.
  • FIG. 5 is a perspective view showing the fixing plate being fitted onto two containers according to the second embodiment of the present invention.
    •  DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing the assembly of a fixing plate structure for containers according to a first embodiment of the present invention. The fixing plate structure of the first embodiment comprises a fixing plate 10 including a body 11 formed in a polygon shape. In this embodiment, the body 11 is formed in a quadrangle shape. The body 11 has a through hole 12 defined thereon, a plurality of slits 13 radially and isometrically extending from an outer peripheral side of the through hole 12, and plural tongues 14 formed around the outer peripheral side of the through hole 12, wherein each tongue 14 deforms as being pushed. The fixing plate 10 is made of paper material or plastic material so as to obtain flexibility.
  • FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing the operation of the fixing plate structure for the containers according to the first embodiment of the present invention. The fixing plate 10 is fitted on a container 20, and the plurality of tongues 14 deform so as to match with an outer diameter of a neck 22 of the container 20.
  • To prevent the container 20 from rolling, a width of the fixing plate 10 is at least more that an outer diameter of the container 20. Thereby, the fixing plate 10 is fitted on the neck 22 or the container 20 so as to support the container 20, between the container 20 and a tabletop forms an angle, and the fixing plate 10 is polygonal, so one of four outer peripheral sides of the fixing plate 10 abuts against the tabletop, thus fixing the container securely.
  • FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing the assembly of a fixing structure for containers according to a second embodiment of the present invention. The fixing plate structure of the second embodiment comprises a fixing plate 30 including a body 31, and an area of the body 31 of the second embodiment is twice larger than that of the body 11 of the first embodiment, wherein the body 31 includes two through holes 32 defined thereon, and a plurality of slits 13 radially and isometrically extending from an outer peripheral side of each through hole 32, and plural tongues 14 formed around the outer peripheral side of the each through hole 32; wherein the body 31 has a folding line 35 formed thereon so as to fold the fixing plate 30 in half along the folding line 35, such that the two through holes 32 correspond to each other. It is to be noted that slits 33 and tongues 34 of one of the two through holes 32 correspond to those of another of the two through holes 32 after folding the fixing plate 30 in half.
  • FIG. 4 is a perspective view showing the fixing plate being folded in half and fitted onto the containers according to the second embodiment of the present invention. Since the slits 33 and the tongues 34 of the one of the two through holes 32 correspond to those of the another of the two through holes 32 after folding the fixing plate 30 in half, gaps between the fixing plate 30 and at least one container 20 decrease, thus stopping fluid dropping from an opening of each of the at least one container 20.
  • FIG. 5 is a perspective view showing the fixing plate being fitted onto two containers according to the second embodiment of the present invention. Thereby, the fixing plate of the present invention is used to fit and fix the at least one container securely by ways of at least one through hole. In addition, the fixing plate is portable easily.
  • While the preferred embodiments of the invention have been set forth for the purpose of disclosure, modifications of the disclosed embodiments of the invention as well as other embodiments thereof may occur to those skilled in the art. Accordingly, the appended claims are intended to cover all embodiments which do not depart from the spirit and scope of the invention.
