연합인증 가입 기관의 연구자들은 소속기관의 인증정보(ID와 암호)를 이용해 다른 대학, 연구기관, 서비스 공급자의 다양한 온라인 자원과 연구 데이터를 이용할 수 있습니다.

이는 여행자가 자국에서 발행 받은 여권으로 세계 각국을 자유롭게 여행할 수 있는 것과 같습니다.

연합인증으로 이용이 가능한 서비스는 NTIS, DataON, Edison 등이 있습니다.

한번의 인증절차만으로 연합인증 가입 서비스에 추가 로그인 없이 이용이 가능합니다.

다만, 연합인증을 위해서는 최초 1회만 인증 절차가 필요합니다. (회원이 아닐 경우 회원 가입이 필요합니다.)

연합인증 절차는 다음과 같습니다.

최초이용시에는
ScienceON에 로그인 → 연합인증 서비스 접속 → 로그인 (본인 확인 또는 회원가입) → 서비스 이용

그 이후에는
ScienceON 로그인 → 연합인증 서비스 접속 → 서비스 이용

연합인증을 활용하시면 KISTI가 제공하는 다양한 서비스를 편리하게 이용하실 수 있습니다.

1. A cup holder and a shopping cart in combination, comprising: a shopping cart including a basket, the basket having at least one wall with a hole therein;a container ring configured to removably hold a beverage container; anda securing mechanism for removably securing the container ring relative to the shopping cart, the securing mechanism including: a first portion configured for slidable mounting, in a first direction, onto a top edge of the wall of the basket of the shopping cart; anda second portion configured for slidable insertion, in a second direction generally perpendicular to the first direction, into the hole in the wall of the basket of the shopping cart, wherein the hole is disposed vertically below the top edge of the wall of the basket of the shopping cart, wherein the second portion comprises a protrusion extending in the second direction that is sized and shaped corresponding to the hole such that the protrusion is closely surrounded by an interior surface of the hole and an outer periphery of the protrusion directly contacts and frictionally engages the interior surface of the hole such that the protrusion contributes to vertical and lateral stability of the cup holder by restricting vertical and lateral movement of the cup holder relative to the at least one wall of the shopping cart, and wherein a through hole longitudinally extends through a center of the protrusion. 2. The cup holder and shopping cart of claim 1 and further comprising: a spacer interposed between the container ring and the securing mechanism to maintain the container ring laterally spaced apart from the securing mechanism in the first direction, the spacer having a width substantially greater than a width of the first portion of the securing mechanism. 3. The cup holder and shopping cart of claim 2 wherein the spacer comprises a plurality of walls extending between the container ring and the securing mechanism, the walls being generally parallel to each other and spaced apart from each other in a third direction generally perpendicular to the first direction. 4. The cup holder and shopping cart of claim 2 wherein the container ring comprises a generally circular portion and a generally non-circular portion. 5. The cup holder and shopping cart of claim 4 wherein the generally non-circular portion comprises at least one of: (1) a generally convex shape protruding inward toward a center of the generally circular portion; and (2) an array of protrusions. 6. The cup holder and shopping cart of claim 1 wherein the first portion of the securing mechanism comprises a clasp including a base and a spring arm extending from the base in the second direction. 7. The cup holder and shopping cart of claim 6 wherein the second portion of the securing mechanism comprises a support arm including a first end and a second end with a body extending between the first end and the second end, wherein the first end of the support arm is connected to the base of the clasp and the body and the second end of the support arm extend from the first end of the support arm in the second direction to position the body of the support arm to be spaced apart from and opposite the spring arm of the clasp, andwherein the second end of the support arm includes the protrusion extending toward the spring arm of the clasp with the protrusion spaced apart from the spring arm. 8. The cup holder and shopping cart of claim 7 wherein at least one portion of the protrusion has a width substantially equal to a gap between the spring arm of the clasp and the body of the support arm. 9. The cup holder and shopping cart of claim 7 wherein the protrusion comprises a generally ring shaped rib extending upward from a body of the support arm. 10. The cup holder and shopping cart of claim 7 wherein the protrusion comprises a rib extending upward from the body of the support arm and defining at least one of a generally diamond shaped member, a hexagonally shaped member, and a rectangular shaped member, depending on the shape of the hole. 11. The cup holder and shopping cart of claim 7 wherein the support arm has a length extending in a second direction that is substantially greater than a length of the spring arm of the clasp extending in the second direction, and wherein the length of the spring arm is less than a thickness of the container ring. 12. The cup holder and shopping cart of claim 7 wherein the spacer extends generally parallel to the first direction in generally same plane as the container ring, the first direction being generally parallel to a diameter of the container ring. 13. A method of carrying a cup holder on a shopping cart, the method comprising: providing a cup holder and a shopping cart, the cup holder including a container ring configured to slidably receive a beverage container and a securing mechanism configured to removably secure the cup holder relative to a basket of the shopping cart, wherein the securing mechanism comprises a first portion attachable to a top edge of a wall of the shopping cart basket and a second portion including a protrusion;slidably advancing, in a first direction, the first portion of the securing mechanism of the cup holder onto the top edge of the wall of the basket of the shopping cart; andslidably inserting, in a second direction generally perpendicular to the first direction, the protrusion of the second portion of the securing mechanism of the cup holder into a hole in the wall of the basket of the shopping cart, wherein the hole is disposed vertically below the top edge of the wall of the basket of the shopping cart,wherein the protrusion extends in the second direction and is sized and shaped corresponding to the hole such that the protrusion is closely surrounded by an interior surface of the hole and an outer periphery of the protrusion directly contacts and frictionally engages the interior surface of the hole such that the protrusion contributes to vertical and lateral stability of the cup holder by restricting vertical and lateral movement of the cup holder relative to the at least one wall of the shopping cart, and wherein a through hole longitudinally extends through a center of the protrusion. 14. The method of claim 13 wherein providing the cup holder comprises: arranging the first portion of the securing mechanism to be spaced apart from the second portion of the securing mechanism in the first direction. 15. The method of claim 14 wherein providing the cup holder comprises: arranging the first portion of the securing mechanism to be generally opposed to, and spaced apart from, the second portion of the securing mechanism in the second direction. 16. The method of claim 15 wherein providing the cup holder comprises: interposing a spacer between the securing mechanism and the container ring. 17. The cup holder and shopping cart of claim 1, wherein the securing mechanism further comprises an apron entirely surrounding the protrusion, the apron limiting an insertion depth of the protrusion in the hole and anchoring the second portion relative to the wall of the basket of the shopping cart. 18. The cup holder and shopping cart of claim 2, wherein the spacer is divided into two side-by-side sections separated by a planar wall, each section including a planar back wall substantially perpendicular the planar wall. 19. The cup holder and shopping cart of claim 18, wherein each of the spacer sections comprises a side wall aligned and extending with a portion of an exterior of the container ring.
