Abstract
A support attachment for use with a holding unit having at least two adjacent cavities with longitudinally axes provides sufficient pressure to squarely hold and stabilize bottles within the cavities. The support attachment has a central axis and includes a plate adapted to be fitted to the holding unit and a pair of elongated legs in symmetrically spaced relationship with respect to the central axis for supporting bottles held in two adjacent cavities in the holding unit. Each leg extends, in the same direction, from opposite ends of the plate and has first and second ends. The first ends are joined at substantially right angles to the plate and the second ends are normally biased toward one another so that when the plate is fitted onto the holding unit, one of the legs extends longitudinally into one of the adjacent cavities while the other leg extends into another adjacent cavity.
