Abstract

A bracket device adapted to a slide rail mechanism is disclosed. The bracket device includes a first supporting frame, a second supporting frame and a bracket. The second supporting frame is movable relative to the first supporting frame. The bracket includes a side wall and at least one mounting member arranged adjacent to the side wall. Herein, the first supporting frame and the second supporting frame are able to be engaged with each other through a first structure and a second structure, in order to be moved simultaneously from a first position along a direction.

Claims (19)

1. A slide rail mechanism, comprising:

a rail member; and

a first bracket device arranged on the rail member, the first bracket device comprising:

a first supporting frame movable relative to the rail member;

a second supporting frame movable relative to the first supporting frame; and

a bracket arranged on the second supporting frame;

wherein the first supporting frame and the second supporting frame are able to be engaged with each other through a first structure and a second structure, in order to be moved simultaneously from a first position along a direction;

wherein the bracket is configured to mount the rail member on a rack;

wherein when the first supporting frame and the second supporting frame are further moved simultaneously along the direction to a second position, the first structure and the second structure are disengaged through a function feature, wherein the rail member comprises the function feature, the first bracket device comprises an elastic member, the first structure is arranged on the elastic member, when the first supporting frame and the second supporting frame are located at the second position, through the elastic member being located corresponding to the function feature, the elastic member is deflected by an angle and disengages the first structure from the second structure, such that the first supporting frame and the second supporting frame are not moved simultaneously;

wherein the function feature comprises a wall, when the first supporting member is located at the second position, the elastic member is deflected by the angle and engaged with the wall of the function feature of the rail member through an engaging portion, in order to prevent the first supporting frame from moving along an opposite direction of the direction.

2. The slide rail mechanism of claim 1 , wherein the elastic member is attached on the first supporting frame, the second structure is arranged on one of the second supporting frame and the bracket.

3. The slide rail mechanism of claim 2 , wherein the elastic member is connected to the first supporting frame through a reinforcing member.

4. The slide rail mechanism of claim 3 , wherein the reinforcing member comprises at least one supporting portion supporting the rail member.

5. The slide rail mechanism of claim 1 , wherein the rail member comprises a limiting feature, which corresponds to another limiting feature of the first supporting frame, when the first supporting frame is located at the second position relative to the rail member, the another limiting feature of the first supporting frame abuts against the limiting feature of the supporting rail of the rail member, in order to prevent the first supporting frame from being moved from the second position along the direction.

6. The slide rail mechanism of claim 1 , wherein the second supporting frame is movable relative to the first supporting frame along the direction to a third position, the first supporting frame comprises an abutting feature, which corresponds to another abutting feature of the second supporting frame, when the second supporting frame is located at the third position relative to the first supporting frame, the another abutting feature of the second supporting frame abuts against the abutting feature of the first supporting frame, in order to prevent the second supporting frame from being moved from the third position along the direction.

7. The slide rail mechanism of claim 1 , wherein the bracket comprises a side wall and at least one mounting member arranged adjacent to the side wall, the at least one mounting member is configured to being mounted on the rack.

8. The slide rail mechanism of claim 1 , wherein the first bracket device is arranged on a first side of the rail member.

9. The slide rail mechanism of claim 8 , further comprising another rail member movably mounted on a second side of the rail member, wherein the first side and the second side of the rail member are two opposite sides.

10. The slide rail mechanism of claim 1 , wherein the first bracket device is attached on and adjacent to a first end portion of the rail member, the slide rail mechanism further comprises a second bracket device attached on and adjacent to a second end portion of the rail member.
