ABSTRACT:
A cup holding device is designed to hold cups therein, and is formed of a case having a storing portion therein; a rotating member rotationally supported by the case and rotating between a storing position for closing the storing portion and a using position; two cup holders axially supported by the rotating member to be rotatable in a direction perpendicular to a rotating direction of the rotating member and having holding portions for the cups; a guided portion provided at at least one of the two cup holders; a guiding device formed in the case for guiding the guided portion; a first urging member for urging the rotating member to rotate from the storing position to the using position; and a holding member for holding the rotating member at the storing position. When the rotating member is rotated from the storing position to the using position by releasing the holding member, the guided portion is guided by the guiding device and the holding portions of the two cup holders overlapped one upon the other in the storing position are separated. In the cup holding device, number of parts for constituting the cup holding device is reduced and the cup holding device can be produced at a low cost.
