ABSTRACT:
An adjustable holder for use in a vehicle to positionally maintain variably sized beverage containers. The holder provides a flat base carrying two upstanding spacedly opposed columns defining a slot therebetween to allow passage of a cup handle therethrough. Each column carries a flexible, circumferentially extending support arm that partially encircle a cylindrical beverage container in opposite directions to overlap and releasably fasten to each other in their outer end parts, in a first species by hook and loop type fabric fastening structure carried on adjacent support arm surfaces and in a second species by a ratchet type fastener. The base of the holder is releasably fastenable on a carpeted surface for positional maintenance by four radially extendible carpet hooks that are biased inwardly by an elastic member interconnecting all hooks. The bottom surface of the base also provides hook and loop type fasteners for optional fastening on solid surfaces such as a dashboard or center console.
