Abstract

A mounting apparatus for a slide rail includes a post, a mounting bracket, a fixing plate, and two fasteners. The post longitudinally defines two positioning holes. The mounting bracket is capable of being connected to an end of the slide rail. An end plate is formed on an end of the mounting bracket, and two through holes are defined in the end plate. The fixing plate defines two fixing holes. The fasteners are respectively extended through the positioning holes of the post and the through holes of the end plate, and engaged in the fixing holes of the fixing plate, to allow the fixing plate to be locked to the post. The mounting bracket is transversely slidably coupled to the post and the fixing plate via the two fasteners.

Claims (11)

1. A mounting apparatus for a slide rail, the mounting apparatus comprising:

a post longitudinally defining two positioning holes;

a mounting bracket to be connected to an end of the slide rail, an end plate formed on an end of the mounting bracket, and two through holes defined in the end plate and aligning with the two positioning holes of the post;

a fixing plate defining two fixing holes aligning with the two positioning holes of the post; and

two fasteners respectively extended through the positioning holes of the post and the through holes of the end plate, and engaging in the fixing holes of the fixing plate, to allow the fixing plate to be locked to the post, and the mounting bracket is transversely slidably coupled to the post and the fixing plate via the two fasteners, wherein two hooks extend from a side of the end plate away from the post, two slots are defined in the fixing plate, the hooks are respectively extended through the slots of the fixing plate and engage with a side of the fixing plate away from the post, the hooks are slidable relative to the fixing plate along the slots.

2. The mounting apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the hooks are substantially L-shaped.

3. The mounting apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the mounting bracket is integrally formed on the end of the slide rail.

4. The mounting apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the mounting bracket further comprises a side plate to be connected to an outer portion of the slide rail, the end plate extends from an end of the side plate away from the slide rail.

5. The mounting apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the fixing holes are circular, a diameter of each fixing hole is less than a length of a corresponding one of the through holes.

6. The mounting apparatus of claim 5 , wherein the diameter of each fixing hole is substantially equal to a width of the corresponding one of the through holes.

7. The mounting apparatus of claim 6 , wherein the fasteners are screws, and the fixing holes are threaded holes.
