Abstract

A slide rail mechanism includes a slide rail, a resilient member, and an adjusting device. The slide rail includes a front portion and a rear portion. The resilient member is located between the front portion and the rear portion of the slide rail and includes a first portion and a second portion, wherein the first portion is fixed with respect to the slide rail. The adjusting device is configured for adjusting the height of the second portion with respect to the first portion.

Claims (21)

1. A slide rail mechanism, comprising:

a slide rail having a front portion and a rear portion;

a resilient member located between the front portion and the rear portion of the slide rail, wherein the resilient member includes a first portion and a second portion, and the first portion is fixed with respect to the slide rail;

a first adjusting device for adjusting a height of the second portion of the resilient member with respect to the first portion thereof, the first adjusting device including a first base and a first adjusting member connected to the first base in an operable manner, the first base being configured for supporting the second portion of the resilient member, and the first adjusting member being configured for adjusting the height of the second portion of the resilient member with respect to the slide rail;

a second adjusting device, the second adjusting device including a second base and a second adjusting member for adjusting a transverse position of the second base; and

a first housing connected to the slide rail and a second housing mounted on the first housing, the first adjusting device and the second adjusting device being respectively mounted on the first housing and the second housing.

2. The slide rail mechanism of claim 1 , wherein the first adjusting member includes a main body portion and an eccentric portion, the main body portion and the eccentric portion have different axes, and the eccentric portion is mounted on the first base.

3. The slide rail mechanism of claim 1 , wherein the first portion and the second portion of the resilient member are integrally formed, and the resilient member is arranged along a length of the slide rail.

4. The slide rail mechanism of claim 1 , wherein the resilient member is made of metal or plastic.

5. The slide rail mechanism of claim 1 , wherein the second adjusting member is connected to the second base in an operable manner via a mount.

6. The slide rail mechanism of claim 5 , wherein the second base is pivotally connected to the mount.

7. The slide rail mechanism of claim 1 , wherein the first housing is connected to the slide rail at a position adjacent to the rear portion of the slide rail.

8. The slide rail mechanism of claim 1 , wherein the slide rail includes a projection, the first portion of the resilient member is connected to the projection, and the projection has a guiding feature selected from the group consisting of an inclined surface and a curved surface.

9. A slide rail mechanism adapted for a furniture part, the slide rail mechanism comprising:

a first rail;

a second rail longitudinally displaceable with respect to the first rail, wherein the second rail is configured for supporting the furniture part;

a resilient member located between opposing front and rear portions of the second rail and including a first portion and a second portion, wherein the first portion is fixed with respect to the second rail;

a first adjusting device for adjusting a height of the second portion of the resilient member with respect to the first portion thereof and thereby adjusting an angle of inclination of the furniture part, the first adjusting device including a first base for supporting the second portion of the resilient member and a first adjusting member connected to the first base in an operable manner in order to adjust the height of the second portion of the resilient member, the first adjusting member including a main body portion and an eccentric portion, the main body portion and the eccentric portion having different axes, the eccentric portion being mounted on the first base, and the first adjusting member including an operating portion connected to the main body portion;

a second adjusting device, the second adjusting device including a second base and a second adjusting member for adjusting a transverse position of the second base, the second base being configured to be mounted to a hole in a rear wall of the furniture part, and the second adjusting member being connected to the second base in an operable manner via a mount; and

a first housing connected to the second rail and a second housing mounted on the first housing, the first adjusting device and the second adjusting device being respectively mounted on the first housing and the second housing.

10. The slide rail mechanism of claim 9 , wherein the second rail includes a projection, the first portion of the resilient member is connected to the projection, the projection has a guiding feature selected from the group consisting of an inclined surface and a curved surface, and the guiding feature is configured for guiding the furniture part when the furniture part is displaced from a mounting position in a mounting direction toward a rear portion of the second rail, in order for the furniture part to be mounted to the second rail.
