ABSTRACT:
A storable holder for a container such as a glass cup, mug, bottle or can, intended especially for use in boats and mobile homes consists of a recessed base, a yoke member and a ring member. The yoke member is pivoted by an axle to the base member and can be moved between stored and operative positions about a yoke axis, while the ring member is pivoted to the yoke member so as to assume a horizontal position under gravity when in the operative position. The ring member includes two flexible loops of ferromagnetic material (e.g. chain) depending therefrom at right angles to one another and joined together at the bottom so as to engage the bottom of a container in the ring and retain it in the holder. The yoke and ring are accommodated in the recess in the base in their stored positions, and the base includes a magnet against which the flexible loops are stored by magnetic attraction. The yoke axle is spring-urged and cooperates with a face cam to positively retain the yoke and ring members in both the stored and operative positions.
