Abstract

A hook-on type rail includes a main body, a front hooking member adjustably connected to a rear end of the main body, and a second hooking member adjustably connected to a front end of the main body. The first hooking member has two sideward projected hooks for firmly located in two insertion holes on a rear post of a sectional rack. The second hooking member includes two sideward projected lugs for fitly inserting into two insertion holes on a front post of the sectional rack to prevent the rail from moving up or down, and two vertically movable hooks bearing against one side of the two lugs for extending into and hooking on the same insertion holes to firmly hold the rail to the front post. Therefore, the rail may be stably hooked on the posts of the sectional rack for a drawer or the like to safely slide thereon.

Claims (11)

1. A hook-on type rail, comprising:

a main body defining at an inner side a path for a drawer-like object to slide on said rail;

a first hooking member for connecting to a rear outer end of said main body and having a rear end formed into at least one horizontally extended L-shaped hook, and said L-shaped hook having a rear end rearward projected from the rear end of the main body; and

a second hooking member for connecting to a front outer end of said main body, said second hooking member being provided at predetermined positions with two vertically spaced lugs, and having a slide plate vertically slidably connected thereto, such that said two lugs on the second hooking member butt against an outer side of two vertically spaced and downwardly extended hooks provided on said slide plate, and each of said two hooks on said slide plate has upper and lower ends that arc not projected from tipper and lower ends of a corresponding lug on said second hooking member when said slide plate is fully slid upward relative to said second hooking member.

2. The hook-on type rail as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the rear outer end of said main body has at least one horizontally extended long hole formed on said main body, and said first hooking member has at least one corresponding generally round hole formed on said first hooking member, such that said first hooking member is affixed to the rear outer end of said main body with at least one rivet in a horizontally adjustable manner.

3. The hook-on type rail as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the front outer end of said main body has at least one vertically extended long hole formed on said main body, and said second hooking member has at least one corresponding generally round hole formed on said second hooking member such that said second hooking member is affixed to the front outer end of said main body with at least one rivet in a vertically adjustable manner.

4. A hook-on type rail, comprising:

a main body defining at an inner side a path for a drawer-like object to slide on said rail;

a first hooking member for connecting to a rear outer end of said main body and having a rear end formed into at least one horizontally extended L-shaped hook, and said L-shaped hook having a rear end rearward projected from the rear end of the main body; and

a second hooking member for connecting to a front outer end of said main body, said second hooking member being provided at predetermined positions with two vertically spaced lugs, and having a slide plate vertically slidably connected thereto, such that said two lugs on the second hooking member butt against an outer side of two vertically spaced and downwardly extended hooks provided on said slide plate, and each of said two books on said slide plate has upper and lower ends that are not protruded from upper and lower ends of a corresponding lug on said second hooking member when said slide plate is fully slid upward relative to said second hooking member;

wherein the rear outer end of said main body has at least one horizontally extended long hole formal on said main body, and said first hooking member has at least one corresponding generally round hole formed on said first hooking member, such that said first hooking member is affixed to the rear outer end of said main body with at least one rivet in a horizontally adjustable manner, and the front outer end of said main body has at least one vertically extended long hole formed on said main body, and said second hooking member has at least one corresponding generally round hole formed on said second hooking member, such that said second hooking member is affixed to the front outer end of said main body with at least one rivet in a vertically adjustable manner.
