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 vehicle interior component is disclosed. The component may comprise a base and a support. The component may comprise an actuator to operate a mechanism to move the support between raised and lowered positions. The mechanism may comprise a bladder. The support and the base may provide a cavity when the support is lowered. The support may protrude from the base when the support is raised. The support may be configured for a tilted state. The bladder may expand and/or contract to move the support. The bladder may comprise a first and second air bladder. An outer surface of the support and an outer surface of the base may comprise a substantially continuous surface when the support is in the raised or lowered position. The component may comprise at least one of a console; a floor console; a tunnel console; an armrest; an instrument panel; a door; a door panel.

A vehicle holding unit includes a cupholder and a holding member. The cupholder has a sidewall defining a cup receiving area. The holding member having a base movable between a stowed position and a deployed position. The base being mainly vertical in the stowed position. The base being mainly horizontal and extends into the cup receiving area in the deployed position.

A vehicle interior component is disclosed. The component may comprise a base comprising a surface and a support comprising a surface and configured to move between raised and lowered positions. The surfaces of the support and 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 component may comprise a light source to illuminate a border around the support and walls of the cavity. The component may comprise a mechanism to move the support. The support may comprise a switch to send a signal to the mechanism to move the support. The mechanism may comprise an adaptive volume mechanism. The component may comprise a wireless charger configured to send a signal to a controller to move the support. The component may comprise at least one of a console; armrest; instrument panel; door.

A cup holder for a vehicle, wherein the cup holder includes: two opposing, fixed side walls; and two opposing, spring-loaded side walls adapted to support a cup, wherein the two opposing, fixed side walls and the two opposing, spring-loaded side walls define a generally cylindrical receptacle adapted to receive the cup. The present invention also relates to a vehicle including at least one such cup holder.

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 cup holder may include a base having a threaded flange configured to mount the cup holder. A pair of arms may be hingedly coupled to the base and may extend from the base to define an opening. Each of the pair of arms may be moveable to vary a size of the opening. A basket may be formed from a flexible material and coupled to the pair of arms. A cavity may extend from a bottom of the basket to the opening formed between the pair of arms.
