Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . An adjustable cup-holder comprising:
 a bottom;   a handle, a lower end of the handle connecting the bottom; and   a horizontally flexible ring; wherein the flexible ring and an upper end of the handle are in an adjustable connection for different dimensions of cups.   
   
   
       2 . The adjustable cup-holder as cited in  claim 1 , wherein an end of the flexible ring connects to the handle to form a fixing end, another end of the flexible ring is a free end, the free end is adjustable and fixed on the handle or the fixing end of the flexible ring. 
   
   
       3 . The adjustable cup-holder as cited in  claim 2  further comprises a buckling plate protruding from the upper end of the handle and a buckling cam setting on the handle, the fixing end of the flexible ring connects the buckling plate, a space between the buckling plate and the buckling cam is provided for the free end, the free end of the flexible ring is fixed to a position by way of turning the buckling cam. 
   
   
       4 . The adjustable cup-holder as cited in  claim 3 , wherein the buckling cam is mounted on an axis elongated from the handle vertically or horizontally. 
   
   
       5 . The adjustable cup-holder as cited in  claim 3  further comprises a stirring rod mounted on the buckling cam. 
   
   
       6 . The adjustable cup-holder as cited in  claim 3  further comprises a buckling head mounted on the upper end of the handle, a through hole is formed in the buckling head for inserting the free end of the flexible ring. 
   
   
       7 . The adjustable cup-holder as cited in  claim 6 , wherein the through hole with a protrusion is formed in the buckling head, a plurality of holes are settled on the free end of the flexible ring to match with the protrusion for fixing the free end of the flexible ring. 
   
   
       8 . The adjustable cup-holder as cited in  claim 7 , wherein the protrusion is a tooth, a figure of the hole or the dent match with a figure of the tooth. 
   
   
       9 . The adjustable cup-holder as cited in  claim 7  further comprises the buckling cam on a handle head, the buckling cam matches with a horizontal protruding portion of the buckling head by means of a guiding structure, and then turning the buckling cam can fix the free end of the flexible ring in the through hole of the buckling head firmly. 
   
   
       10 . The adjustable cup-holder as cited in  claim 9 , wherein the guiding structure is a pair of hook structure on the buckling cam, the buckling head has a pair of pin members and a pair of flexible plates, the flexible plates can move horizontally on the handle head, the hook structure hitches the two pin members of the buckling head. 
   
   
       11 . The adjustable cup-holder as cited in  claim 10  further comprises an elastic binder between the buckling head and the handle head. 
   
   
       12 . The adjustable cup-holder as cited in  claim 11 , wherein the binder has a plurality of elastic curve clamping members. 
   
   
       13 . The adjustable cup-holder as cited in  claim 11 , wherein the handle head, a middle of the binder and an inner surface of the buckling head have an arc surface respectively. 
   
   
       14 .
