Removable and adjustable cup holder for a vehicle

A cup holder for a vehicle comprising:

• a vehicle panel having a horizontal support surface and a pair of opposing spaced apart walls rising above the support surface and defining the dimensional extent of the support surface, said spaced apart walls having recesses formed therein;
• and
• a block of compressible foam material adapted for placement on the support surface and having at least one cavity therein adapted to hold a cup, said block of foam having opposed end walls spaced apart to fit closely between the spaced apart walls of the vehicle panel and having projections formed integral on the foam whereby the block of foam material is held in place by the interaction of the respective end walls of the block and the vehicle panel, and the block is removable from the vehicle panel by compressing the foam block to effect disengagement of the end walls of the foam block from the vehicle panel spaced apart walls.

A beverage container holder for a vehicle comprising:

• a vehicle panel having a square horizontal support surface with the sides thereof defined by a first and second pairs of opposing spaced apart walls rising above the support surface and defining the dimensional extent of the support surface, a recess formed in each of the walls of the vehicle panel;
• a rectangular block of compressible foam material adapted for placement on the support surface and having at least one cavity therein adapted to hold a cup, said block of foam having a length defined by first pair of opposed walls spaced apart to fit closely between the spaced apart walls of the vehicle and having integral projections extending therefrom into the recesses of the walls whereby the block of foam material is held in place by the interaction of the respective end wall projections of the block and the recesses of the vehicle panel, said block is removable from the vehicle panel by compressing the foam block to effect disengagement of the end walls of the foam block from the vehicle panel end walls, and said block of foam having a width smaller than the distance between the opposed spaced apart walls of the vehicle panel so that the foam block can be variably located along the support surface by sliding the foam block along the support surface as permitted by the sliding of the projections within the recess.
