ABSTRACT:
The container holder includes a base on which a plurality of upstanding, spring biased tangs are disposed for radial movement relative to an imaginary common center point to accomodate and hold containers of different sizes. The tangs include outwardly diverging upper protions which are engaged by the bottom of the container as it is lowered onto the base. This engagement results in outward spreading of the tangs apart to accommodate a particular size container. Lower portions of the tangs are spring biased against the side periphery of the container to hold it upright when the container bottom rests on the base.
