[0002] A cup holder is a household shelf used to store and hold cups, commonly found in kitchens, bathrooms, and other spaces. They are primarily made of metal, plastic, or wood, combining practicality with aesthetics.
[0003] In existing technologies, when camping outdoors, there may be a lack of suitable places to put the water cups. Water cup holders can make flexible use of the surrounding environment to build temporary supports, and fix the water cups in a stable and accessible position, avoiding them from getting dirty when placed directly on the ground, and allowing users to easily access them at any time during the activity. However, when carrying a water bottle holder, the fixed structure of the holder makes it difficult to fold, resulting in a large space occupation. This makes it inconvenient to put in a backpack or carry by hand, increasing the burden on your luggage. In fact, the protruding parts may snag on clothing or other items, affecting the smoothness of carrying. Utility Model Content

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of this utility model are as follows: 1. By rotating the ring 90 degrees, the drive plate is pushed a short distance, causing the locking ring to enter the cross groove of the ring, thus fixing the ring and providing a support base for the cup holder body. After the cup is placed in the cup holder body, the cup holder forms a stable support from the bottom of the cup, which can limit the cups of different diameters. Finally, when the side rod is not in a vertical position, it will be located horizontally inside the base. At the same time, with the foldable effect of the diamond mesh, the overall area occupied during storage is small. 2. By installing a movable part on one end of the base, when the side rod is in a vertical state, the L rod is rotated on the movable part so that the shorter end of the L rod enters the corresponding hole on one side of the side rod. In this way, together with the vertical side rod and the horizontal base, a stable force system is formed, which effectively disperses the pressure on the side rod and prevents it from tilting when bearing load.

Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0021] Example 1 like Figures 1-5As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a foldable cup holder, including a folding mechanism 1, a fixing mechanism 2 provided on the top side of one end of the folding mechanism 1, a side rod 11, a crossbar 12 provided at the top of the side rod 11, the top of the side rod 11 being fixedly connected to one end of the crossbar 12, a rotating ring 13 provided on the outer side of the crossbar 12, the outer side of the crossbar 12 being rotatably connected to the inner side of the rotating ring 13, a locking ring 14 provided at one end of the rotating ring 13, one end of the rotating ring 13 being slidably engaged with one end of the locking ring 14, a cup holder body 18 provided on one side of the rotating ring 13, one side of the rotating ring 13 being fixedly connected to one end of the cup holder body 18, a driving plate 15 provided on the top side of one end of the locking ring 14, the top side of one end of the locking ring 14 being fixedly connected to the bottom end of the driving plate 15, a limiting frame 16 provided on one side of the driving plate 15, one side of the driving plate 15 being rotatably engaged with the outer side of the limiting frame 16, and a knob 17 provided at the center of the limiting frame 16. The center of the limiting bracket 16 is fixedly connected to one end of the knob 17. The outer side of the knob 17 is rotatably connected to the top end of the side rod 11. The inner wall of the cup holder body 18 is provided with a diamond-shaped mesh 19. The inner wall of the cup holder body 18 is connected to the outer top of the diamond-shaped mesh 19. The bottom end of the diamond-shaped mesh 19 is provided with a cup holder 114. The bottom end of the diamond-shaped mesh 19 is fixedly connected to the top edge of the cup holder 114. The outer top of the diamond-shaped mesh 19 is provided with a connecting plate 110. The top outer side of 19 is connected through the interior of the connecting plate 110. A fixing plate 111 is provided inside the connecting plate 110. The interior of the connecting plate 110 is slidably connected to one end of the fixing plate 111. One side of the fixing plate 111 contacts one side of the diamond mesh 19. A fixing member 112 is provided on one side of the fixing plate 111. One side of the fixing plate 111 is rotatably connected to one end of the fixing member 112. The outer side of the fixing member 112 is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the connecting plate 110.
[0022] In this embodiment, the foldable cup holder is designed with two side rods 11, which are L-shaped and connected to a crossbar 12. A rotating ring 13 is designed on the outer side of the crossbar 12, and a cup holder body 18 is fixed to one side of the rotating ring 13. The rotating ring 13 can rotate on the crossbar 12. Currently, the rotating ring 13 is vertical. By rotating the rotating ring 13 by 90 degrees, the rotating ring 13 is made to present a horizontal plane, and the cup holder body 18 is presented synchronously with the rotating ring 13. Since a cross groove is opened at one end of the rotating ring 13, and a locking ring 14 is designed on the inner wall of the top of the side rod 11, the locking ring 14 is cross-shaped, and a drive plate 15 is installed at one end of the locking ring 14. By pushing the drive plate 15 a short distance, the locking ring 14 enters the cross groove of the rotating ring 13, thereby fixing the rotating ring 13 and providing a support base for the cup holder body 18. A knob 17 is installed at the top of the side rod 11. One end of the knob 17 is designed with a limit frame 16. The limit frame 16 is plate-shaped, and a groove with the same shape as the limit frame 16 is opened on the inner wall of the drive plate 15. As the drive plate 15 moves, it will pass through the limit frame 16, so that the limit frame 16 is located on one side of the drive plate 15. At this time, by rotating the knob 17 ninety degrees, the limit frame 16 is pressed against one side of the drive plate 15, restricting the drive plate 15 and fixing the position of the locking plate after it moves, so that it always remains effectively engaged. By designing a diamond mesh 19 on the inner wall of the cup holder body 18, and setting a cup holder 114 at the bottom of the diamond mesh 19, a stable support is formed from the bottom of the cup after the cup is placed in the cup holder body 18. This can limit the use of cups of different diameters, increase the flexibility of cup use, and avoid the limitation of only being able to fit special cups. A connecting plate 110 is designed on the outer side of the top of the cup holder body 18. The connecting plate 110 has a gap inside, so one end of the diamond mesh 19 is located in the gap. At the same time, a fixing plate 111 is installed on the inner wall of the connecting plate 110. A fixing member 112 is designed on one side of the fixing plate 111. Therefore, when it is necessary to raise the bottom of the cup holder 114, the diamond mesh 19 is pulled to raise the height of the cup holder 114. At this time, the fixing member 112 is rotated, so that the fixing plate 111 moves on the original basis, so that the diamond mesh 19 is tightly attached to the inside of the connecting plate 110, thereby fixing the position of the cup holder 114. A base 113 is designed at one end of the side rod 11. One end of the side rod 11 is connected to one end of the base 113 through a rotating part. The base 113 is concave. Therefore, when the side rod 11 is not in a vertical state, it will be located horizontally inside the base 113. Combined with the foldable effect of the diamond mesh 19, the whole can achieve the ultimate space compression when stored, making the whole not only foldable but also easy to carry.
[0023] Example 2 like Figures 1-5 As shown, the fixing mechanism 2 includes an L-rod 21, a movable part 22 is provided at the bottom end of the L-rod 21, the bottom end of the L-rod 21 is rotatably connected to the connecting end of the movable part 22, a base 113 is provided on the bottom side of the movable part 22, the bottom side of the movable part 22 is fixedly connected to the top side of one end of the base 113, and the top end of the L-rod 21 is rotatably engaged with the inner wall of one side of the side rod 11.
[0024] In this embodiment, a movable part 22 is installed on the top side of one end of the base 113. The movable part 22 rotates with the bottom end of the L-rod 21. When the side rod 11 is in a vertical state, the shorter end of the L-rod 21 is rotated on the movable part 22 and enters the corresponding hole on one side of the side rod 11. In this way, together with the vertical side rod 11 and the horizontal base 113, a stable force-bearing system is formed, which effectively disperses the pressure borne by the side rod 11 and prevents it from tilting when bearing weight. This provides double protection for the stability and ease of operation of the cup holder during use.
[0025] Working principle: like Figures 1-5 As shown, the rotating ring 13 is rotated 90 degrees, making it present a horizontal plane. The cup holder body 18 then appears synchronously with the rotating ring 13. A cross groove is provided at one end of the rotating ring 13, and a locking ring 14 is designed on the inner wall of the top of the side rod 11. The locking ring 14 is cross-shaped, and a drive plate 15 is installed at one end of the locking ring 14. By pushing the drive plate 15 a short distance, the locking ring 14 enters the cross groove of the rotating ring 13, thereby fixing the rotating ring 13 for use by the cup holder. The main body 18 provides a supporting base. During this process, the limiting frame 16 passes through the drive plate 15 and then rotates 90 degrees to restrict the drive plate 15. After the cup is placed in the cup holder body 18, it forms a stable support from the bottom of the cup through the cup holder 114. This can restrict cups of different diameters. Finally, when the side rod 11 is not in a vertical state, it will be located horizontally inside the base 113. At the same time, with the foldable effect of the diamond mesh 19, the whole can achieve the ultimate space compression when stored. By using the movable part 22 installed on one end of the base 113, when the side rod 11 is in a vertical state, by rotating the L rod 21 on the movable part 22, the shorter end of the L rod 21 enters the corresponding hole on one side of the side rod 11, thus forming a stable force-bearing system together with the vertical side rod 11 and the horizontal base 113.
[0026] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any other way. Any person skilled in the art may make changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments for application in other fields. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the technical solution of the present utility model shall still fall within the protection scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
