Abstract:
1. A cup holder having a cylindrical holder body that has an accommodation space surrounded by a sidewall that includes a hole part, a tray that is accommodated in the accommodation space and is held to be vertically movable between a first position and a second position whose perpendicular direction is different from that of the first position, and a height adjuster that causes the tray to be vertically moved and held at the first position or the second position, wherein the height adjuster comprises: a lock member that is turnably held by the tray; a guide groove that is formed on a sidewall of the holder body and that enables the lock member to move in a perpendicular direction; a first latch recessed portion that is formed on a groove side surface which faces the guide groove on the sidewall of the holder body and that causes the tray to be held at the first position by latching the lock member; a second latch recessed portion which is formed at a portion of the groove side surface of the holder body and whose position in a perpendicular direction is different from that of the first latch recessed portion and which causes the tray to be held at the second position by latching the lock member; a latch energizing member that energizes the lock member to a latch direction for latching the lock member with the first latch recessed portion or the second latch recessed portion; an operation member that is receivable in the hole part of the cylindrical holder body, and that cancels latch of the lock member with the first latch recessed portion by causing the lock member to turn to a cancellation direction opposite to the latch direction when the tray is located at the first position; and a movement energizing member that energizes the tray from the first position toward the second position so as to vertically move the lock member of which latch with the first latch recessed portion has been canceled toward the second latch recessed portion through the guide groove.
