  • Patent number: 6705475
    Abstract: A coin cup holder and method of holding coin cups is disclosed. In one embodiment, the coin cup holder comprises an elongate body with a first portion having a first end and an opposing second end and which defines a passage there through and a second portion in the form of a narrow, elongate flange which extends outwardly of the first portion. Extendable rails have one end located in the passage and extend outwardly of each end of the body. Cup accepting posts extend outwardly from the rails in a direction generally opposite the flange. Screws passing through slots in the body and into openings in the rails are used to selectively fix the position of the rails relative to the body between an extended and retracted position. In use, the coin cup holder is mounted by positioning the flange of the coin cup holder between two opposing surfaces, such as opposing sides of two adjacent gaming machines.
