Abstract
A holding device for a drink container has a sliding guide element, a carriage displaceably guided by the sliding guide element, a holding element arranged on the carriage and having an insertion opening for insertion of a drinks container, the holding element and the carriage being connected with one another by a four-lever mechanism, with the four-lever mechanism, the control lever being pressed down upon displacement of the carriage from the pulled-out position to the inserted position, thus moving the holding element from the raised position to the lowered position, at least one of two elements selected from the group consisting of the four-lever mechanism and the control lever forming a safety catch that prevents the holding element in the raised position from being pressed downwards.
