Abstract: A rack for holding stem glasses of the type comprising a stem portion interconnecting a foot portion and a cup portion. The rack is elongated and defines first and second horizontally spaced-apart ends. The rack comprises elongated lower and upper rails both extending between the first and second rack ends, the upper rail being positioned vertically over the lower rail in the operative position of the rack. The rack also defines an elongated foot channel formed between the lower and upper rails and sized for accommodating the foot portion of the stem glass. An elongated insertion slot is also made between the lower and upper rails, the insertion slot being narrower than the foot channel. Furthermore, the rack also defines an elongated clearance positioned above the foot channel for allowing the foot portion of the stem glass to partially and temporarily enter therein when a glass is being inserted or removed from the rack.

Abstract: The device, destined to be anchored in the ground of granular composition, comprises a rod with a hollow tubular section, the latter having an open upper end wherein can be fixed an object and an intermediate orifice on its flank. The orifice enables evacuation of the granular matter constituting the ground and penetrating into the rod through its open lower end when the device is being anchored in the ground.
