ABSTRACT:
A container holder adapted to be mounted within a vehicle interior compartment is provided comprising a housing which mounts at least one pivotable arm having a sector-like floor portion. The arm is pivotable between a retracted and an extended position. As a beverage container is placed within the housing, a base portion of the beverage container pivots the at least one arm about an axis which causes the arm to pivot to the extended position and to engage a wall portion of the beverage container. The beverage container is thereby retained in the housing in a stable manner. A release button assembly is provided which returns the arm to the retracted position when the beverage container is removed.
