Abstract (en)

The invention relates to a Christmas tree stand comprising a holding part (2) which can be attached to a lower end part of the trunk of a Christmas tree, and a standing part (3), where there is a ball joint between the holding part (2) and the standing part (3), and where an outer spherical shell part with an inner spherical shell surface is coupled to the holding part (2), and an inner spherical shell part with an outer spherical shell surface is coupled to the standing part (3), where the outer spherical shell part has a cut encompassing a through slot from an outer surface and through the inner spherical shell surface. Furthermore, there is a tightening ring (11) belonging to the holding part (2) and extending around the outer spherical shell part, and in the tightening ring (11) are lock screws (13) inserted in radially extending threaded bores, which by tightening are adapted to put the outer spherical shell part under pressure in an inward direction towards the inner spherical shell part while reducing the size of the slot to lock the outer spherical shell part against the inner spherical shell part.
