Drawer slide interlock apparatus

Connecting apparatus for connecting a drawer slide assembly to a slide supporting member having first and second generally parallel surfaces and to a drawer side wall having third and fourth generally parallel surfaces, wherein the drawer slide assembly includes a first drawer slide member having a first planar connecting surface defining a first plane, and a second drawer slide member slidably coupled to the first drawer slide member and having a second planar connecting surface defining a second plane, the apparatus comprising:

• a plurality of first male interlock members integral with the first drawer slide member, each first interlock member defining a first loop extending out of the first plane defined by the first planar connecting surface, the first loop having a first bearing surface;
• a plurality of single uninterrupted second bearing surfaces disposed on the slide receiving member, each second bearing surface defining a portion of a first aperture, each first interlock member extending through a first aperture to a mounted condition with the first and second bearing surfaces in contact with each other to connect the first drawer slide member to the slide supporting member;
• a plurality of second male interlock members integral with the second drawer slide member, each second interlock member defining a second loop extending out of the second plane defined by the second planar connecting surface, the second loop having a third bearing surface;
• and
• a plurality of single uninterrupted fourth bearing surfaces disposed on the slide receiving member, each fourth bearing surface defining a portion of a second aperture, each second interlock member extending through a second aperture with the third and fourth bearing surfaces in contact with each other to connect the second drawer slide member to the drawer side wall.
