ABSTRACT:
A cup holder assembly is provided, including a bin having at least one vertical wall with a floor extending from one end thereof. A bale having a flat surface opposing a contoured surface is attached to the bin to pivot between a first position, in which the flat surface is parallel to and distal from the bin floor, and a second position, in which the contoured surface is perpendicular to the floor. A cup retention feature is spaced from the bale and attached to the bin to pivot between a use position, for securely retaining a container, and a stowed position, in which the cup retention feature is positioned between the bale and bin wall. A linkage is connected to the bale and cup retention feature to selectively simultaneously move the bale between the first and second positions and the cup retention feature between the use and stowed positions.
