Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0371354A2] To develop a stand, in particular for Christmas trees, having at least three feet (20), and a tubular holder (10) for the trunk which, in two fastening planes (B1, B2) lying one above the other, has a plurality of radial fastening screws (15, 16) for fastening and aligning the end of the trunk, in such a way that the clamping and aligning can be carried out in a simple manner, in which arrangement the tree stand itself, manufactured economically and so as to be lightweight, has the necessary stability, and furthermore a water supply is possible in a space-saving manner to keep the tree fresh, it is proposed that the feet (20), arranged near the top holder end, have radial parts (21) which point essentially outwards and on whose free ends receptacles are provided for vertically adjustable means for setting up on the locating planes (S), which receptacles are bent over approximately in the axial direction at a distance from the holder (10), a gap between locating plane (S) and bottom holder end enabling the water container (19) to be inserted, and that the fastening screws (15, 16), for clamping and aligning the tree, which fastening screws (15, 16) are arranged in the two fastening planes (B1, B2) lying in each case near one of the ends of the holder (10), be arranged in holes in the holder (10) in such a way that they can be screwed in and out in each case centrally between two feet, the holes being provided with corresponding matching threads. <IMAGE>
