Abstract
The retractable holder for two drink containers, for example, in a dashboard of a motor vehicle, includes a slide element (16) provided with an insertion opening (38) for a first drink container. With the slide element (16) pulled out, a swiveling part (42) provided with an insertion opening (46) for a second drink container can be swiveled sideways out of the slide element (16). So that the holder can be reduced in width, the two insertion openings (38, 46) are open along one section of their circumference. When the swiveling part (42) is accommodated in the slide element (16), the open section is completed by or circumferentially closed by a swiveling arm (40) that is mounted on the swiveling part (42), which swiveling arm (40) swivels out sideways. When the swiveling part(42) is pivoted out from the slide element (16), the swiveling arm (40) completes the insertion opening (46) of the swiveling part (42) and an outer rim (52) of the swiveling part (42) completes the insertion opening (38) of the slide element (16). In order to be able to reduce also the overall height of the holder, preferred embodiments include a helical drive (58) that lowers a support (54) that swivels together with the swiveling part (42) as the latter is swiveled out.
