ABSTRACT:
A cup holder assembly formed as part of a vehicle arm rest. The cup holder includes a slidable drawer mounted to a frame for movement between an extended position and a retracted position. A retaining arm is supported by the drawer and biased to pivot about a vertical axis between a use position and a stored position. The retaining arm has a retaining ring on one end which defines a container receiving aperture. The ring also includes a downwardly extending offset which is adapted to receive the handle of a container. The drawer additionally has an indentation defined in a lateral side edge and the indentation is located so as to correspond with and receive the offset when the retaining arm is in its stored position.
