- a patio chair generally indicated to by reference numeral 10 is shown.
- Chair 10 includes a seat 12 supported above a ground surface by a plurality of legs 14.
- a backrest 16 integrally formed with the seat 12 extends upwardly from the rear edge of the seat 12.
- a pair of armrests 18 integrally formed with the backrest 16 extend forwardly from the backrest 16 above opposed side edges of the seat.
- Each armrest 18 curves downwardly near the front of the chair 10 and terminates at a front corner of the seat 12.
- Each armrest is generally L-shaped in cross-section (see Figure 4) and includes a generally vertical inner sidewall 20 and a generally horizontal top 22 integrally formed with and extending to one side of the sidewall 20.
- a depending lip 24 is provided along the outside edge of the top 22.
- a beverage container holder 30 Removably connected to one of the armrests 18 and extending generally at a right angle to the armrest 18 is a beverage container holder 30 in accordance with the present invention.
- Beverage container holder 30 is designed to facilitate its attachment to and removal from the armrest 18 of the chair 10 and to allow a variety of different types of beverage containers to be supported in a stable manner. Details of the beverage container holder 30 will now be described with particular reference to Figures 2 to 5.
- the beverage container holder 30 is of a one-piece construction formed of moulded polystyrene plastic.
- the beverage container holder 30 includes a generally planar, rectangular arm member 32 having a flexible retainer 34 at one end thereof to attach removably the beverage container holder 30 to the armrest 18.
- a beverage container receptacle 36 At the opposite end of the arm 32 is a beverage container receptacle 36 to receive and support a beverage container in a generally upright, stable condition when the beverage container holder 30 is attached to the armrest 18.
- Laterally spaced, longitudinally extending supporting ribs 38 are provided on the upper surface of the arm member 32.
- the supporting ribs 38 run adjacent opposed side edges of the arm member 32 to reinforce the arm member.
- the supporting ribs 38 decrease in thickness near the flexible retainer 34.
- Flexible retainer 34 is generally U-shaped and includes a pair of arms 40 and 42 joined by a bight 44. Arm 40 depends from the end of arm member 32.
- Arm 42 has a free distal end 46 which is spaced slightly below the undersurface of the arm member 32.
- the distal end 46 is also outwardly flared.
- the sidewall 20 of the arm rest is accommodated in the space between the arms 40 and 42.
- the outwardly flared distal end 46 of arm 42 contacts the undersurface of the top 22 of the armrest 18 to hold securely the beverage container holder 30 to the armrest.
- the receptacle 36 includes a circular base 50 and an upright wall 52 extending generally about the periphery of the base.
- a slot 54 positioned diametrically opposite the arm member 32 extends through the upright wall 52 from the upper rim 56 of the upright wall to the base 50.
- the slot 54 also extends partially across the base 50 and terminates generally at its center.
- the slot 54 increases in width near the upper rim 56 and takes a generally circular configuration at the center of the base 30.
- the upright wall 52 is stepped to define an annular support surface 58 within the receptacle 36 vertically spaced from and of a greater diameter than the base 50.
- the annular support surface 58 lies in a plane generally parallel to the base.
- the arm 42 is pulled away from the arm 40 causing arm 42 to flex about the bight 44. This is done until the distal end 46 of the arm 42 is spaced from the undersurface of the arm member 32 a sufficient distance to accommodate the inner sidewall 20.
- the beverage container holder 30 is then positioned to allow the inner sidewall 20 to extend the space between the undersurface of arm member 32 and the distal end 46 with the inner sidewall 20 contacting the arm 40 (see Figure 6a).
- the beverage container holder 30 is pivoted in the direction of arrow 80 (see Figures 6b and 6c) so that the inner sidewall 20 moves into the space between the arms 40 and 42.
- the beverage container holder 30 is pivoted until the arm member 32 overlies the top 22 and extends outwardly from the armrest 18 generally at a 90° angle to the armrest.
- the flared distal end 46 of the arm 42 contacts the undersurface of the top 22 to ensure a secure attachment of the beverage container holder 30 to the armrest.
- Removing the beverage container holder 30 from the armrest 18 is just as simple an operation. It is only necessary to pivot the beverage container holder 30 upwardly away from the top 22 until the U-shaped flexible retainer 34 can be slid downwardly to remove the sidewall 20 from the space between the arms 40 and 42.
- the beverage container simply needs to be placed within the receptacle 36.
- Taller narrow containers are usually supported in a stable manner by the base 50.
- Shorter wider containers such as "highball" glasses are either supported in a stable manner on the base 50 or on the annular support surface 58 depending on the diameter of the container.
- beverage containers with handles such as “coffee mugs”
- these beverage containers can also be supported in a stable manner within the receptacle 36 by orienting the beverage container so that the handle extends through the slot 54 in the upright wall 52.
- these types of beverage containers can also be supported in a stable manner within the receptacle 36. This is done by inserting the beverage container into the receptacle 36 from the side with the stem passing through the slot 54 in the upright wall 52 and base 50 and extending below the base.
- the bowl of the beverage container is supported within the receptacle 36 either on the base 50 or on the annular support surface 58 depending on the diameter of the bowl.
- the present invention provides a beverage container holder 10 which can easily support different types of beverage containers including those having stems or handles in a stable manner.
- the beverage container holder 30 can be made having a receptacle of basically any desired size depending on the types of beverage containers to be supported therein.
- the receptacle 36 is approximately 2.8 inches deep, has an upper rim 56 with a diameter equal to approximately 3.5 inches and has a base 50 with a diameter equal to approximately 2.9 inches.
- the width of the slot 54 is selected to accommodate different lengths and thicknesses of glass stems and cup handles and in a preferred embodiment, is approximately 0.7 inches at its narrowest point.
- beverage container holder 30 can be attached to the armrest of different types of chairs and that the patio chair 10 is shown for illustrative purposes only.
- the receptacle 36 has been shown on a beverage container holder having a generally U-shaped retainer to attach the beverage container holder to the armrest of a chair, it should be apparent to those of skill in the art that the receptacle 36 may be used with other types of beverage container holders having different types of connectors to attach the beverage container holder to armrests or other types of supporting surfaces. These different types of connectors can for example include clamps or fasteners such as screws or nuts and bolts.
- the slot is shown diametrically opposite the arm member 32, it should be appreciated that the position of the slot can be altered if desired. Also, although the slot is shown extending from the upper rim of the upright wall to the base and partially across the base, the length of the slot can be changed if desired. For example, if supporting glasses with stems is not a concern, the slot need only extend downwardly through the upright wall from the upper rim.
- tabs 100 are provided on the arm near its free distal end 46'.
- the tabs 100 facilitate pivoting of the arm about the bight 44' to space the distal end 46' from the undersurface of the arm member 132 a sufficient distance to accommodate the sidewall of the arm rest.
- Figure 8 shows yet another embodiment of a flexible retainer 134 for the beverage container holder designed to facilitate pivoting of the arm 142 about the bight 144.
- the free distal end 146 of the arm is extended and curves back away from the undersurface of the arm member 132. Pressure can be applied to the free distal end 146 to flex the arm 142 about the bight 144 and open up the space between the arm 142 and the arm member 132.
- Figure 9 shows still yet another embodiment of the flexible retainer.
- a pair of laterally spaced holes 200 are provided in the arm 240 to accommodate fasteners in cases where a user wishes to fasten the beverage container holder to the armrest of a chair or other support structure.
- the other arm and bight of the flexible retainer would be removed from the arm 240 allowing the arm to sit flush against the surface to which the fasteners are to pass.
- Figures 10 and 11 show an alternative embodiment of the arm member 332 for the beverage container holder.
- an additional supporting rib 400 is provided on the undersurface of arm member.
- the supporting rib 400 extends along the central longitudinal axis of the arm member 332 and partially alon ⁇ its length so as not to interfere with the top of the armrest to which the beverage container holder is attached.
