Abstract: The opening (233) between two adjustable arms (204-205) can be varied to accommodate a wide variety of beverage container sizes. A swivel bar (203) is pivotally attached to a supporting structure (202) by inserting hinge pins (210) into hinge pin holes (212). A pair of arms, each of which includes a retaining pin (214), are pivotally attached to the swivel bar by inserting the retaining pins into holes (218) at opposite ends of the swivel bar. The retaining pins have a narrow stem (214a) and a wider head (214b), the head being wider than the holes. During assembly, the head compresses as it is being inserted into the hole, and expands after it has been forced through the hole, thereby permanently attaching the arm. A detent wheel (213), contilever spring (215) and pawl (216) hold the arms in one of three predetermined angular positions. Each arm, detent wheel and retaining pin are integrally formed as a unitary structure from a single plastic injection mold.

Abstract: A food receptacle attaches to either a left or right-hand door of an automobile and provides the occupants with convenient storage for food and change. A reversible drawer slides between two rails suspended below the body of the receptacle with the front of the drawer facing in either direction. To prevent the drawer from being pulled out of the rails, a projection is positioned to one side of the drawer and contacts one of two diametrically opposed protuberances on the receptacle body. When the drawer is reversed, the drawer projection contacts the other protuberance. A coin holder is attached to the front of the drawer and includes an aperture to receive coins. Any coins placed in the holder are trapped therein when the holder is positioned under the receptacle body. These coins will strike a projection on the body to prevent the drawer from being pushed out of the rails. Snap-off tabs are attached to the bottom of the receptacle and rest against the automobile door.
