ABSTRACT:
A beverage container for a motor vehicle is provided for. The beverage container holder is located in a vehicle glove compartment. The beverage container holder is pivotally attached to the glove compartment cover and a side wall of the glove compartment so that the bottom of the beverage container holder remains horizontal when the cover is in a closed position. The beverage container holder also has a system for allowing cool air from the vehicle's ventilation system into the glove compartment through an air duct for the purpose of cooling items placed in the beverage container holder. An aperture located in a side wall of the glove compartment cover allows cooling air to be circulated when the glove compartment cover is in a closed position. When the glove compartment cover is open, the side wall of the glove compartment cover prevents cooling air from being circulated within the glove compartment.
