ABSTRACT:
A cup holder structure for vehicles includes a housing at a console and having a receiving space defined therein, a holder part disposed in the receiving space of the housing such that the holder part can be vertically moved, the holder part having entrances positioned at a top part thereof to hold beverage containers, a vertical elastic member disposed between a bottom of the housing and the holder part to provide an elastic force to the holder part, and a locking member to restrict upward movement of the holder part, which is effected by the vertical elastic member. When the holder part is moved upward, the beverage containers are held by the holder part. When the holder part is moved downward, articles are received in the receiving space of the housing. Consequently, space utilization is maximized.
