Abstract
A slide rail assembly including a first rail, a second rail, a third rail, a first supporting device, and at least one supporting member is provided. The first rail includes a first end portion and a second end portion that are opposite to each other. The second rail is longitudinally movable relative to the first rail. The third rail is longitudinally movable relative to the second rail. The first supporting device exceeds the first end portion of the first rail for a predetermined longitudinal distance. The at least one supporting member is arranged on one of the second rail and the first supporting device.
Claims14
A slide rail assembly, comprising:
- a first rail comprising a first end portion and a second end portion that are opposite to each other;
- a second rail longitudinally movable relative to the first rail from a retracted position to an extending position in an opening direction, the second rail comprising a first end portion and a second end portion that are opposite to each other, the first end portion of the second rail exceeding the first end portion of the first rail when the second rail is positioned at the retracted position relative to the first rail;
- a third rail longitudinally movable relative to the second rail;
- a first supporting device exceeding the first end portion of the first rail for a predetermined longitudinal distance;
- and
- an auxiliary member connected to the first end portion of the second rail;
- at least one supporting member rotatably mounted on the auxiliary member and configured to support the first supporting device.
A slide rail assembly, comprising:
- a first rail;
- a second rail longitudinally movable relative to the first rail from a retracted position to an extending position in an opening direction;
- a third rail longitudinally movable relative to the second rail, each of the first rail, the second rail, and the third rail respectively comprising a first end portion and a second end portion;
- a first supporting device exceeding the first end portion of the first rail for a predetermined longitudinal distance;
- an auxiliary member connected to the first end portion of the second rail opposite to the second end portion of the second rail;
- and
- at least one supporting member rotatably mounted on the auxiliary member;
- wherein, when the second rail is longitudinally moved relative to the first rail from the retracted position to the extending position in the opening direction, the at least one supporting member supports and contacts along an upper edge or an extending portion of a lower edge of the first supporting device;
- wherein one of the at least one supporting member and the first supporting device comprises an arced contour, and another one of the at least one supporting member and the first supporting device comprises a linear section to support and contact with the arced contour;
- wherein, when the second rail is positioned at the extending position relative to the first rail, the first end portion of the second rail exceeds the first end portion of the first rail;
- wherein, when the second rail is positioned at the retracted position relative to the first rail, the first end portion of the second rail exceeds the first end portion of the first rail;
- wherein, when the second rail is positioned at the extending position relative to the first rail, the third rail is able to be moved to an opening position relative to the second rail;
- wherein, when the third rail is positioned at the extending position relative to the second rail, the first end portion of the third rail exceeds the first end portion of the second rail.
