Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION



[0001] The present invention relates to trays, and in particular to a tray for positioning dining utensils, wherein a plurality of protrusions are installed so that a plurality of dining utensils can be installed on the protrusions. The user can take the utensils easily.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION



[0002] In generally, a tray has a flat disk body. A bowl is placed upon the tray. When it is necessary to move the tray, the bowl is not fixed and thus the food in the bowl will slide out and pour out.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION



[0003] Accordingly, the primary object of the present invention is to provide a tray for positioning dining utensils, wherein a plurality of protrusions are installed so that a plurality of dining utensils can be installed on the protrusions. The user can take the utensils easily.

[0004] To achieve above objects, the present invention provides a tray for positioning dining utensils which comprises: a disk surface being formed on the tray; at least one protrusion being formed on the disk surface; at least one disk being installed on the protrusion of the tray; a bottom of the disk being installed with a semi-round groove for receiving the semi-round protrusion on the tray 1 so as to form a tray for positioning a disk, wherein the disk is installed upon the tray by the groove to receive the protrusion, thus the disk is positioned upon the tray without sliding. The protrusion is a semi-round protrusion. The groove is a semi-round groove.

[0005] The various objects and advantages of the present invention will be more readily understood from the following detailed description when read in conjunction with the appended drawing.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS



[0006] 

Fig. 1 is a perspective view of the present invention.

Fig. 2 is an assembled cross sectional view of the present invention.


DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION



[0007] In order that those skilled in the art can further understand the present invention, a description will be provided in the following in details. However, these descriptions and the appended drawings are only used to cause those skilled in the art to understand the objects, features, and characteristics of the present invention, but not to be used to confine the scope and spirit of the present invention defined in the appended claims.

[0008] Referring to Figs. 1 to 2, the present invention is illustrated. The present invention has the following elements.

[0009] A tray 1 has a flat disk surface 10. At least one semi-round protrusion 11 is formed on the disk surface 10. At least one disk 2 is installed on the protrusion 11 of the tray 1. A bottom of the disk 2 is installed with a semi-round groove 20 for receiving the semi-round protrusion 11 on the tray 1 so as to form a tray 1 for positioning a disk 2.

[0010] Furthermore, when the disk 2 is placed upon the tray 1. The semi-round groove 20 will receive the semi-round protrusion 11 so that the disk 2 is positioned upon the tray 1. The disk 2 will not slide.

[0011] Moreover in the present invention, a plurality of protrusions 11 are installed so that a plurality of dining utensils can be installed on the protrusions 11. The user can take the utensils easily.

[0012] The present invention is thus described, it will be obvious that the same may be varied in many ways. Such variations are not to be regarded as a departure from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and all such modifications as would be obvious to one skilled in the art are intended to be included within the scope of the following claims.


Claims
