Abstract: A cup holder sleeve is provided with a hanger for suspending a sleeve and cup combination from objects (e.g. shopping carts). The sleeve includes a body and a hanger connected to the body. The hanger is deformable to define a hook. The sleeve is expandable to receive the cup and collapsible to a substantially flat configuration for storage. When the body is flat, the sleeve is substantially co-planer. The hanger may be made using an elongate hanger element, such as a deformable strip of aluminium, extending from an upper edge of the body. Preferably, the elongate hanger element is covered in a same material (e.g. paper, foam) used for the body. The body is composed of a material strip material fastened at overlapping ends to define an annular shape. Preferably, the hanger extends from the body at the overlapping ends and may be fastened to the body between the overlapping ends.

Abstract: A system can include a rigid or semi-rigid container, a caddy and a cart. A connector can be provided which is operable to provide for a first connection between the cart and the container and a second connection between the container and the caddy. At least one of the first connection and the second connection is a releasable connection. The container is also releasably attachable to said cart. Also provided is a method of using the components of the system. The system and method are well suited for application in shopping environments.

Abstract: A clip mechanism for supporting a flexible storage receptacle on a portion of a chair. The apparatus has a first clip member mountable to the portion of the chair and a second clip member connectable to the first clip member. A coupling is employed for connecting a first member to a second member, whereby the first member and the second member are positioned in a spaced apart relationship when coupled.

Abstract: A cup holder mechanism mountable to an armrest of stadium or theater seating operable between a compacted position and an expanded position. The cup holder mechanism comprises a base substantially contoured similar to a portion of the armrest, and provides support for a base of a container when placed thereon. A top member is coupled to the base and has an aperture for receiving the container therein. The top member is movable between the compacted and expanded positions. An intermediate member is coupled between the top member and the base member to provide support for the top member when placed in the expanded position. Also included is a lock for inhibiting displacement of the top member once placed in at least one of the positions. The cup holder mechanism provides support for a spectator's arm on the armrest when placed in the compacted position, while at the same time: providing support for the container when the mechanism is placed in the expanded position.
