The second set of arms are connected to the first set of arms.

Claims (27)

1. A slide rail assembly, comprising:

a first rail;

a second rail; and

a cable management device including:

a supporting base,

a first set of arms including first and second arms that are pivotally connected to each other, wherein the first arm of the first set of arms is pivotally connected to the supporting base, and

a second set of arms including first and second arms that are pivotally connected to each other, wherein the first arm of the second set of arms is pivotally connected to the second arm of the first set of arms;

wherein the second rail is movable with respect to the first rail and the supporting base; and

wherein the second set of arms and the first set of arms are movable from a first state to a second state in response to the second rail moving with respect to the first rail from a first position to a second position.

2. The slide rail assembly of claim 1 , wherein the second arm of the second set of arms is movable in response to the second rail moving with respect to the first rail from the first position to the second position.

3. The slide rail assembly of claim 1 , further comprising a third rail movably mounted between the first rail and the second rail, wherein the supporting base is mounted on the first rail.

4. The slide rail assembly of claim 1 , wherein the supporting base includes a supporting portion and a wing portion, the first arm of the first set of arms is movably mounted on the supporting portion, and the wing portion enables the supporting base to be mounted to the first rail.

5. The slide rail assembly of claim 4 , wherein the supporting portion of the supporting base includes a plurality of ribs for supporting the first set of arms and/or the second set of arms.

6. A slide rail assembly adapted for mounting an object to a rack, the slide rail assembly comprising:

a first rail mountable on a first post and a second post of the rack;

a second rail movable with respect to the first rail, the second rail being mountable with the object;

a third rail movably mounted between the first rail and the second rail; and

a cable management device including:

a supporting base fixed in position with respect to the first rail,

a first set of arms including first and second arms that are pivotally connected to each other, wherein the first arm of the first set of arms is pivotally connected to the supporting base, and

a second set of arms including first and second arms that are pivotally connected to each other, wherein the first arm of the second set of arms is pivotally connected to the second arm of the first set of arms;

wherein the second set of arms and the first set of arms are movable from a first state to a second state in response to the second rail moving with respect to the first rail from a first position to a second position.

7. The slide rail assembly of claim 6 , wherein the second arm of the second set of arms is movable in response to the second rail moving with respect to the first rail from the first position to the second position.

8. The slide rail assembly of claim 6 , wherein the supporting base is mounted on one of a third post of the rack and the first rail, and the supporting base includes a supporting portion on which the first arm of the first set of arms is movably mounted.

9. The slide rail assembly of claim 8 , wherein the supporting portion of the supporting base includes a plurality of ribs for supporting the first set of arms and/or the second set of arms.

10. The slide rail assembly of claim 9 , wherein the first set of arms and the second set of arms have a cable management feature where a cable of the object is placeable.

11. The slide rail assembly of claim 1 , wherein the supporting base is fixedly mounted with respect to at least one of the first rail and the rack.
