A container securing device includes a housing portion, with a cylindrical shape, the top of which is open, and which is intended to house a beverage container. A flap is positioned within a hole that is formed within a surrounding wall of the housing portion, and is installed so as to be capable of moving either out of the housing portion, or into the housing portion, in response to the container being inserted into, or extracted from, the housing portion. An impelling (biasing) component forces the flap toward the interior direction of the housing unit. The flap is capable of moving to a location that secures the container when the container is fully housed within the housing portion.

What is claimed is: 1. A container securing device, comprising: a housing portion for housing a container, said housing portion having a cylindrical shape, a surrounding wall with a hole therein, and an opening at an upper end thereof; a flap positioned within said hole of said surrounding wall of said housing portion, said flap being configured and arranged with respect to said housing portion such that a leading end portion of said flap is operable to move in or out of said housing portion in response to the container being inserted into the housing portion or being extracted from the housing portion; and an urging component comprising a spring for pushing said flap toward an interior of said housing portion; wherein said housing portion, said flap, and said urging component are interconnected and configured such that: when the container is not housed within said housing portion, said flap is in a projected position in which said leading end portion of said flap protrudes into an interior of said housing portion; said flap is operable to be rotated from said projected position in either a first direction or a second direction opposite said first direction; when the container is being inserted into the housing portion, said flap is operable to rotate in said first direction from said projected position to an extracted position in which said flap is withdrawn from the interior of said housing portion by contacting an outer wall of the container; and when the container is being removed from the housing portion, said flap is operable to rotate in said second direction from the projected position to the extracted position by contacting the outer wall of the container. 2. The container securing device of claim 1, wherein said leading end portion of said flap for contacting the container has an approximately semicircular shape. 3. The container securing device of claim 2, wherein said flap includes a first axle and a second axle spaced apart along a direction of insertion of the container into, and removal of the container from, said housing portion with an interval therebetween, said urging component being configured to urge said first axle and said second axle toward the interior of said housing portion, and said flap being configured to rotate around either of said first axle or said second axle. 4. The container securing device of claim 1, wherein said flap includes a first axle and a second axle spaced apart along a direction of insertion of the container into, and removal of the container from, said housing portion with an interval therebetween, said urging component being configured to urge said first axle and said second axle toward the interior of said housing portion, and said flap being configured to rotate around either of said first axle or said second axle. 5. The container securing device of claim 1, further comprising a guide portion for guiding movement of said flap between the projected position and the extracted position, said flap having a pair of axles for riding along said guide portion such that said flap is pivotable along either of said pair of axles. 6. A container securing device, comprising: a housing portion for housing a container said housing portion having a cylindrical shape, a surrounding wall with a hole therein, and an opening at an upper end thereof; a flap positioned within said hole of said surrounding wall of said housing portion, said flap being configured and arranged with respect to said housing portion such that a leading end portion of said flap is operable to move in or out of said housing portion in response to the container being inserted into the housing portion or being extracted from the housing portion; an urging component for urging said flap toward an interior of said housing portion; wherein said housing portion, said flap, and said urging component are interconnected and configured such that: when the container is not housed within said housing portion, said flap is in a projected position in which said leading end portion of said flap protrudes into an interior of said housing portion; said flap is operable to be rotated from said projected position in either a first direction or a second direction opposite said first direction; when the container is being inserted into the housing portion said flap is operable to rotate in said first direction from said projected position to an extracted position in which said flap is withdrawn from the interior of said housing portion by contacting an outer wall of the container; and when the container is being removed from the housing portion, said flap is operable to rotate in said second direction from the projected position to the extracted position by contacting the outer wall of the container; and said container securing device further comprising a guide portion for guiding movement of said flap between the projected position and the extracted position, said flap having a pair of axles for riding along said guide portion such that said flap is pivotable along either of said pair of axles.
