Abstract

A slide rail includes an outer rail, an intermediate rail slidably received in the outer rail, a first inner rail slidably received in the intermediate rail opposite to the outer rail, a second inner rail slidably received in the intermediate rail opposite to the outer rail, a protuberance disposed on the first inner rail, a latch member connected to the second inner rail, and a releasing member connected to the outer rail. The first and second inner rails are arranged adjacent to opposite first and second ends of the outer rail. The latch member is capable of engaging with or disengaging from the protuberance. When the first inner rail slides out of the outer rail from the first end, the releasing member is configured to abut against the latch member and urge the latch member to disengage from the protuberance.
