Abstract: A tray stand includes a vertical column (1, 12) and a plurality of circular trays (3, 14), rotatably carried by the column and situated one above the other. Each such tray includes a plurality of substantially circle sector-shaped sections (4, 22), which are carried by a common holder or hub (5, 16) rotatably mounted on the column, so that together they form a circular tray. The circle sector-shaped tray sections (4, 22) are arranged on arms (56, 18) radially projecting from the holder (5, 16) so that substantially the whole surface of each section in the tray (3, 14) is accessible without obstruction by the overlying tray (3, 14).
