The cup-holder is provided with a number of cells for
receipt of a cup. Each cell has a side limit which diverges
upwardly and is defined by inter-connected alternatively
inwardly and outwardly curved walls. The inwardly curved wall is
formed of flexible material which deforms resiliently
outwardly as the cup is inserted into the cell to frictionally
secure the cup therein. Each inwardly curved wall has a
continuous inner surface free of any openings therein save and
except for a slit formed adjacent to its intersection with the
lower wall and, optionally, a vertically-extending line of
weakness. The line of weakness is formed by a cut into but not
through the latter said wall. The slit and line of weakness
are provided to facilitate deformation of the curved wall.
Support à gobelets comportant plusieurs cellules pour recevoir des gobelets. Chaque cellule a un bord divergeant vers le haut et est définie par des parois reliées entre elles et incurvées alternativement vers l'intérieur et vers l'extérieur. La paroi incurvée vers l'intérieur est formée d'un matériau souple qui se déforme élastiquement quand on insère le gobelet dans la cellule pour qu'il y soit retenu par frottement. Chaque paroi incurvée vers l'intérieur a une surface intérieure continue sans ouverture, à l'exception d'une fente adjacente à son intersection avec la paroi inférieure et, optionnellement, une ligne de faiblesse s'étendant verticalement. La ligne de faiblesse est formée par découpe partielle et non traversante dans la paroi latérale. La fente et la ligne de faiblesse visent à faciliter la déformation de la paroi incurvée.
