A cup holder mount includes a cup holder having a tubular portion extending from an outside of the cup holder, and the tubular portion includes a pivot. A clamp unit is connected to a handle of an exercise machine and includes a connection section which includes a hole. The pivot is adjustably and pivotably inserted into the hole.

An adapter is used to couple a beverage container to a holding container. The adapter has a ridge point, a top portion, and a bottom portion. The ridge point is designed to rest upon a rim of the holding container. The top portion includes a top aperture and a sloped side disposed between the ridge point and the top aperture. The bottom portion includes a bottom aperture and a side wall disposed between the ridge point and the bottom aperture. The top aperture's size is related to the size of the beverage container, while the bottom aperture's size is related to the size of the holding container.

A portable beverage carrier and dispenser. The carrier comprises an elongate tube have one end open and the opposite end generally enclosed. The tube includes perforations to permit water to move in and out of the tube, and a float that is placed into the tube prior to inserting beverage containers. The carrier is designed to be inserted into a hole in the ice surface on a body of water. A flange prevents the tube from falling into the hole into the underlying body of water. Anchors can be provided to anchor the carrier to the ice surface. When the carrier is placed in a hole in the ice surface, water enters the interior of the tube via the perforations. The float is placed in the tube and then beverage containers are loaded on top of the float. The buoyancy of the float in the water forces the beverage containers upwards in the tube so that the topmost container can be readily retrieved by a user.

An adjustable mounting bracket comprising a body portion adapted to be one or both of connected to or disposed on a support structure and an interchangeable and/or replaceable attachment, adapted to be one or both of connected to or disposed on the body portion.

A beverage can holding container (20) is removably positionable within an interior area (12) of a refrigerator (10). The container has an interior area (36) that holds a plurality of beverage cans (22). A plurality of handles (46, 58, 60) are provided to facilitate removing the container from the refrigerator and transporting the container with the beverage cans therein to a location away from the refrigerator where the beverages will be consumed.

A support device is disclosed for supporting an object. The support device comprises a clamping member applying a compressive force against a base. A lower ball joint member is coupled to the clamping member. A sleeve remember is coupled to the lower ball joint member. An arm member slidably engages relative to the sleeve member. An upper ball joint member is coupled to the arm member. A platform is coupled to the upper ball joint member for supporting the object. The lower ball joint member defines a first pivoting non-planar adjustment. The pivot joint member defines a pivoting planar adjustment. The extension member defines an elevational adjustment. The upper ball joint member defines a second pivoting non-planar adjustment.

A mechanism for holding at least one article in an enclosure having a sliding cover. The mechanism includes a first track, a second track, and a third track configured on a wall of the enclosure. The third track is configured to hold the articles in a holding position. The mechanism further includes a track changing mechanism and a supporting link. The track changing mechanism connects the first track to the second track and to the third track. The supporting link supports and prevents the lateral movement of the article from the holding position.

A beverage container holding device includes a housing member for housing a beverage container, a movable floor attached to the housing member for supporting a beverage container bottom, a movable floor biasing member for upwardly biasing the movable floor, and a movable floor locking mechanism for securing the movable floor at a predetermined height against the movable floor biasing member. The housing member has a guide groove, and the movable floor has a branch portion extending through the guide groove to an outside of the housing member, and a claw portion extending horizontally from the branch portion. The movable floor locking mechanism includes an annular member which is rotatably mounted below a bottom member, at least one column member extending upward from the annular member in parallel to the guide groove, and a lock piece integrally formed on each column member for suppressing an upper surface of the claw portion.

A method for determining sucrose concentration in honey. The method includes preparing a sample of honey, stimulating the sample by emitting a first laser beam on the sample in a first stimulation direction, detecting a fluorescence spectrum from a first fluorescence emission emitted from the sample in a first detection direction, detecting a first pair of fluorescence peaks and a second pair of peak wavelengths in the fluorescence spectrum, and determining a sucrose concentration based on one of the first pair and the second pair utilizing a database. The database includes a plurality of predetermined sucrose concentrations associated with the first pair or the second pair.
