The second rail can be displaced with respect to the first rail along a longitudinal direction. The drawer frame member includes a carrier and a drawer sidewall connected to the carrier. The carrier is mounted on the second rail. The adjusting device is mounted on the drawer sidewall and is configured to adjust the drawer frame member vertically with respect to the second rail. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A drawer slide assembly, comprising: a first rail; a second rail longitudinally displaceable with respect to the first rail; a drawer frame member including a carrier and a drawer sidewall connected to the carrier, wherein the carrier is mounted on the second rail; and an adjusting device mounted on the drawer sidewall and configured to adjust the drawer frame member vertically with respect to the second rail, the adjusting device including: a housing; a cam having an intermediate body portion and a shaft portion projecting axially therefrom to define opposed first and second ends pivotally coupled to the housing at opposed sides of the intermediate body; a moving member coupled to displace with respect to the housing responsive to actuation of the cam, wherein the moving member is extended with a guiding portion, the housing is formed with a guide groove, and the guiding portion extends through the guide groove such that the moving member is guided by the guide groove when displaced with respect to the housing. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The drawer slide assembly of claim 1, wherein the carrier is provided with an opening corresponding to the second rail, the moving member of the adjusting device has a portion extending through the opening in order to be pressed against the second rail. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The drawer slide assembly of claim 1, wherein the housing of the adjusting device is mounted on the drawer sidewall; the moving member has a pressing portion; and at least a portion of the cam is pressed against the pressing portion of the moving member such that, by rotating the cam, the moving member is displaced with respect to the housing. ### Claim 4 (depends on 3) The drawer slide assembly of claim 3, wherein the cam has a C-shaped groove, and at least a portion of the pressing portion extends into the C-shaped groove. ### Claim 5 (depends on 3) The drawer slide assembly of claim 3, wherein the housing includes two supporting bases, each of the two supporting bases has a pivot hole, and the shaft portion pivotally provided in the pivot holes of the two supporting bases. ### Claim 6 (depends on 5) The drawer slide assembly of claim 5, wherein the shaft portion of the cam has an engaging groove into which a corresponding tool can be inserted in order to rotate the cam. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The drawer slide assembly of claim 1, wherein the drawer sidewall includes a front end portion and a rear end portion, and the adjusting device is mounted on the drawer sidewall at a position adjacent to the rear end portion of the drawer sidewall. ### Claim 8 (depends on 1) The drawer slide assembly of claim 1, wherein the drawer sidewall includes two plates, the two plates define a receiving space therebetween, and the adjusting device is located in the receiving space. ### Claim 9 A drawer slide assembly, comprising: a first rail; a second rail longitudinally displaceable with respect to the first rail; a drawer frame member including a carrier and a drawer sidewall connected to the carrier, wherein the carrier is mounted on the second rail, the drawer sidewall includes a front end portion and a rear end portion, the front end portion is connected to a front panel, and the rear end portion is connected to a rear panel; and an adjusting device mounted on the drawer sidewall at a position adjacent to the rear end portion of the drawer sidewall, the adjusting device being configured to adjust the drawer frame member vertically with respect to the second rail, the adjusting device including: a housing; a cam having an intermediate body portion and a shaft portion projecting axially therefrom to define opposed first and second ends pivotally coupled to the housing at opposed sides of the intermediate body; a moving member coupled to displace with respect to the housing responsive to actuation of the cam, wherein the moving member is extended with a guiding portion, the housing is formed with a guide groove, and the guiding portion extends through the guide groove such that the moving member is guided by the guide groove when displaced with respect to the housing. ### Claim 10 (depends on 9) The drawer slide assembly of claim 9, wherein the carrier of the drawer frame member is provided with an opening corresponding to the second rail, the moving member of the adjusting device has a portion extending through the opening in order to be pressed against the second rail. ### Claim 11 (depends on 9) The drawer slide assembly of claim 9, wherein the adjusting device includes: the housing being mounted on the drawer sidewall; the moving member having a pressing portion; and at least a portion of the cam being pressed against the pressing portion of the moving member such that, by rotating the cam, the moving member is displaced with respect to the housing. ### Claim 12 (depends on 11) The drawer slide assembly of claim 11, wherein the cam has a C-shaped groove, and at least a portion of the pressing portion extends into the C-shaped groove. ### Claim 13 (depends on 11) The drawer slide assembly of claim 11, wherein the housing includes two supporting bases, each of the two supporting bases has a pivot hole, and the shaft portion pivotally provided in the pivot holes of the two supporting bases. ### Claim 14 (depends on 13) The drawer slide assembly of claim 13, wherein the shaft portion of the cam has an engaging groove into which a corresponding tool can be inserted in order to rotate the cam. ### Claim 15 An adjusting device applicable to furniture, comprising: a housing including two supporting bases, wherein each of the two supporting bases has a pivot hole; a moving member displaceable with respect to the housing, the moving member having a pressing portion; and a cam having an intermediate body portion and a shaft portion projecting axially therefrom to define opposed first and second ends pivotally coupled to the pivot holes of the two supporting bases at opposed sides of the intermediate body, wherein at least a portion of the cam is pressed against the pressing portion of the moving member such that, by rotating the cam, the moving member is responsively displaced with respect to the housing, wherein the moving member is extended with a guiding portion, the housing is formed with a guide groove, and the guiding portion extends through the guide groove such that the moving member is guided by the guide groove when displaced with respect to the housing.
