Abstract
A mounting apparatus is configured for mounting a slide rail to a bracket. The bracket includes a flange with a plurality of mounting holes defined therein. A plurality of mounting rods is arranged on the slide rail for engaging in the corresponding mounting holes of the flange. The mounting apparatus includes a resisting member fixed to the slide rail, and an operating member pivotably attached to the resisting member. The resisting member includes a resisting portion configured for engaging with the flange. The operating member is capable of urging the resisting portion of the resisting member away from the flange.
Claims12
A mounting apparatus for mounting a slide rail to a bracket, the bracket comprises a flange with a plurality of mounting holes defined therein, a plurality of mounting rods is arranged on the slide rail for engaging in the corresponding mounting holes of the flange, the mounting apparatus comprising:
- a resisting member fixed to the slide rail, the resisting member comprising a main body, two wing portions extending from opposite ends of the main body respectively, and a resilient resisting portion extending from one side of the main body and configured for engaging with the flange, wherein from a middle portion of each of the wing portions a locking tab extends slantingly away from the slide rail, and from one side of each of the wing portions a locking plate extending perpendicularly away from the slide rail, a locking cutout is defined in the locking plate open toward the locking tab;
- and
- an operating member pivotably attached to the resisting member, the operating member being capable of urging the resisting portion of the resisting member away from the flange;
- wherein the operating member comprises a driving portion formed at a middle portion thereof, two bent portions perpendicularly extending from opposite ends of the driving portion respectively, two pivoting portions extending outward from the bent portions respectively, and two operating portions extending from the pivoting portions respectively, the pivoting portions of the operating member resist against and ride over the locking tabs of the resisting member along an outer surface of the locking tabs to engage in the locking cutouts of the resisting member respectively, then the locking tabs restore to lock the pivoting portions in the locking cutouts of the resisting member, the operating portion is capable of being driven to rotate the operating member around the pivoting portions.
An assembly comprising:
- a bracket comprising a flange with a plurality of mounting holes defined therein;
- a slide rail comprising a mounting plate at one end thereof, a plurality of mounting rods arranged on the mounting plate for engaging in the corresponding mounting holes of the flange;
- a resisting member fixed to the slide rail, the resisting member comprising a main body, two wing portions extending from opposite ends of the main body respectively, and a resilient resisting portion extending from one side of the main body and configured for engaging with the flange, wherein from a middle portion of each of the wing portions a locking tab extends slantingly away from the slide rail, and from one side of each of the wing portions a locking plate extending perpendicularly away from the slide rail, a locking cutout is defined in the locking plate open toward the locking tab;
- and
- an operating member pivotably attached to the resisting member, the operating member being capable of urging the resisting portion of the resisting member away from the flange;
- wherein the operating member comprises a driving portion formed at a middle portion thereof, two bent portions perpendicularly extending from opposite ends of the driving portion respectively, two pivoting portions extending outward from the bent portions respectively, and two operating portions extending from the pivoting portions respectively, the pivoting portions of the operating member resist against and ride over the locking tabs of the resisting member along an outer surface of the locking tabs to engage in the locking cutouts of the resisting member respectively, then the locking tabs restore to lock the pivoting portions in the locking cutouts of the resisting member, the operating portion is capable of being driven to rotate the operating member around the pivoting portions.
