Abstract

The present invention relates to an easily portable wine glass, and more specifically, to an easily portable wine glass containing an accommodation portion into which wine is poured, and a supporting plate having a protruded handle, wherein the accommodation portion and the supporting plate are detachably coupled using a magnet. When carrying the wine glass, the supporting plate serves as a stopper covering the upper portion of the accommodation portion, thereby preventing infiltration of foreign matter. In addition, since there is no need for forming a hole at the bottom of the accommodation portion by coupling the accommodation portion and the handle using a magnet, it is unnecessary to worry about the leakage of wine when pouring wine into the accommodation portion of the wine glass.

Claims

1. A portable wine glass comprising:

a supporting plate having a handle, wherein a groove is formed at an end of the handle and a magnet is placed in the groove in a manner that the magnet protrudes from the end of the handle, and

an accommodation area, wherein a groove is formed at a lower central part of the accommodation area and a metal plate is placed in the groove,

wherein the handle is configured to be inserted into the groove of the accommodation area,

wherein the magnet and the metal plate are disposed in a manner that the handle is magnetically attachable to the accommodation area from a bottom direction of the accommodation area as well as a top direction of the accommodation area,

wherein the supporting plate is configured to cover a top opening of the accommodation area when the supporting plate is attached from a top direction of the accommodation area, and

wherein a stair-shaped part is formed on an outer area of the supporting plate in a manner that a diameter of a lower part is bigger than a diameter of a upper part, and the stair-shaped part is configured to be inserted into a top opening of the accommodation area.

2. The portable wine glass of claim 1, wherein the stair-shaped part is configured to seal the top opening of the accommodation area.

3. The portable wine glass of claim 1, wherein the magnet is cylindrical in shape.
