Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vehicle accessories, specifically to a water cup holder. Background Technology
[0002] To accommodate water cups of different sizes, existing cup holders often have adjustable clamps, but the bottom of the fixing component is usually slidably set to the bottom of the holder. The size of the clamp is controlled by adjusting the distance between the fixing component and the front of the holder. As a result, the fixing component is L-shaped, which leads to a longer lever arm at the top of the fixing component, resulting in poor cup fixation. It also easily causes stress concentration at the bottom of the fixing component and the bottom of the holder. When encountering bumps or heavy loads, the clamp is prone to expand, causing the water cup to fall off. Utility Model Content

Sliding guide members 11 are fixed to both sides of the frame 10. The fixing members 20 consist of two sets located on each sliding guide member 11, sliding towards or away from each other. The projected outline or cross-section of the fixing members 20 in the height direction of the frame 10 is arc-shaped, V-shaped, or U-shaped, with the concave side facing each other. A supporting part 21 is provided at the lower end of the side of the fixing member 20 facing the other fixing member 20, or at the lower end of the side of the two fixing members 20 facing each other, or / and a bracket 12 extending between the two fixing members 20 is provided at the lower end of the frame 10. A locking mechanism 30 is provided between the fixing member 20 and the sliding guide member 11.
