Abstract
A slide mechanism includes a main body, a slide body and an elastic member. The slide body is slidably connected to the main body. The elastic member is positioned between the main body and the slide body. The main body includes a base plate and two guide rails fixed on opposite sides of the base plate. The guide rails are elastic. A distance between the guide rails is less than a length of the elastic member in a normal state. Opposite ends of the elastic member are fixed to the guide rails, and a middle portion of the elastic member is fixed to the slide body, so that the elastic member remains bent between the guide rails.
Claims13
A slide mechanism, comprising:
- a main body comprising a base plate and two elastic guide rails fixed on opposite sides of the base plate;
- a slide body slidably connected to the main body;
- and
- an elastic member positioned between the main body and the slide body;
- wherein each guide rail comprises a first section, a second section, a third section, the second section connects the first section to the third section, and the first section, the second section, and the third section are substantially cylindrical;
- the second section is elastic, and stiffer than the elastic member;
- a distance between the guide rails is less than a length of the elastic member in a normal state;
- opposite ends of the elastic member are fixed to the guide rails;
- a middle portion of the elastic member is fixed to the slide body, so that the elastic member remains bent between the guide rails.

- wherein each guide rail comprises a first section, a second section, a third section, the second section connects the first section to the third section, and the first section, the second section, and the third section are substantially cylindrical;
- the second section is elastic, and stiffer than the elastic member;
- the elastic member comprises a first fixing portion, a second fixing portion, and a third fixing portion between the first fixing portion and the second fixing portion;
- the first fixing portion and the second fixing portion are connected to the main body, and the third fixing portion is connected to the slide body;
- a width of the main body is less than a length of the elastic member in a normal state, so that the elastic member remains bent and generates an elastic force applied to the slide body.
