The present disclosure provides an in-vehicle cup holder and a combined in-vehicle implement including the in-vehicle cup holder. The in-vehicle cup holder includes: a cup holder housing, the cup holder housing being provided therein successively from bottom to top a cup holder foot support and a knob member; wherein the cup holder foot support is distracted and retracted under an effect of the knob member; and the knob member includes a knob lower case, a knob upper case disposed on the knob lower case, a knob cover plate, and a knob mechanism, wherein the knob mechanism is mounted on the knob upper case, and the knob cover plate is mounted on an inner side wall of the cup holder housing and is in contact with the knob mechanism.

A cup holder insert having a retainer housing having front and rear surfaces which define an opening bounded by the perimeter of said retainer housing and a spring-biased retention element, further comprising at least one support section and at least one tab section extending substantially orthogonal to each other. The at least one support section is coupled with the retainer housing with tab extending from the opening substantially perpendicularly to said front surface of the retainer housing. In some embodiments, a flap can selectively cover the tab section.

A vehicle holding unit includes a cupholder and an electronic heating unit. The cupholder has a sidewall defining a cup receiving area. The sidewall includes a heat source for providing heat to the cupholder. The electronic heating unit is integrated with the sidewall. The electronic heating unit has an electrical connector configured to be electrically connected to another electrical connector of a vehicle center console to draw electrical power from the another electrical connector to power the heat source.

A cupholder adapter configured for use with an existing cupholder on a vehicle is provided. The cupholder adapter includes a cylindrical cupholder having a hollow internal volume, a collar attached to a top portion of the cylindrical cupholder, wherein the collar includes a plurality of tabs extending perpendicularly into the hollow internal volume, and an adapter base coupled to the cylindrical cupholder, wherein the adapter base includes a plurality of legs configured to expand and retract such that the diameter of the adapter base is configured to expand from a minimum diameter to a maximum diameter. The plurality of tabs includes tabs of different lengths and widths which enables and accommodates wide, tall, and narrow beverage containers during vehicle use. The adapter base is configured to install into the recessed cupholder near the console of most vehicles.

A vehicle interior component is disclosed. The component may comprise a base comprising an outer surface and a support comprising an outer surface and configured to move between a raised position and a lowered position. The component may comprise a light source to provide a lighted border around the support and/or illuminate walls of the cavity. The outer surface of the support and the outer surface of the base may comprise a substantially continuous surface when the support is in the raised position. The support may descend into the base to provide a cavity. The support may rotate and translate as it descends. The support may comprise a switch to send a signal to move the support. The component may comprise a pump and a valve. The component may comprise at least one of a console, floor console, tunnel console, armrest, instrument panel, door or door panel.

A vehicle interior component is disclosed. The component may comprise a base structure comprising a functional region configured to present a first form and a second form comprising a receptacle. The base structure may comprise an illuminated section at the functional region. The functional region may comprise a movable illuminated platform. The platform may move between an elevated state for a default form and a lowered state for the second form. The platform may be configured to be presented at a first or generally horizontal orientation and a second or generally tilted orientation. The illuminated section may comprise a perimeter of the functional region. The component may comprise an actuator configured to operate a mechanism for the functional region. The functional region may comprise wireless charging capability. The component may comprise at least one of a console; floor console; tunnel console; armrest; instrument panel; door; door panel.

A cup holder assembly includes a stationary upper ring, a lower cup vertically movable relative to the stationary upper ring between a first position and a second position, a flexible sleeve extending between an upper edge of the lower cup and a bottom edge of the stationary upper ring, and an actuator adapted to selectively move the lower cup relative to the stationary upper ring between the first and second positions, thereby simultaneously varying a depth of the cup holder assembly and varying an inner diameter of the cup holder assembly.
