Abstract

An embodiment of the present invention provides a fixing assembly comprising: a wire rack having a vertical frame and a horizontal frame; a slide rail which has a fixed rail coupled to the wire rack and a movable rail slidably disposed on the fixed rail; and a fixing means for fastening the fixed rail to the wire rack, wherein the fixing means comprises a first fixing clip provided on one side of the fixed rail and a second fixing clip provided on the other side of the fixed rail. The fixing assembly has a structure in which the first fixing clip is fixed laterally to the horizontal frame, and then the second fixing clip is fixed vertically to the horizontal frame.

Claims (50)

1. A fixing assembly comprising:

a wire rack including a vertical frame and a horizontal frame;

a slide rail including a fixed rail coupled to the wire rack and a movable rail disposed on the fixed rail to move in a sliding manner; and

a fixing unit which fixes the fixed rail to the wire rack,

wherein the fixing unit includes a first fixing clip provided at one side of the fixed rail and a second fixing clip provided at the other side of the fixed rail and has a structure in which the first fixing clip can be laterally fixed to the horizontal frame and then the second fixing clip can be vertically fixed to the horizontal frame,

wherein the first fixing clip includes:

a plate part which is in contact with and coupled to one surface of the fixed rail;

a lateral fixing part formed on the plate part and including a first coupling part and a second coupling part coupled to angular end portions of the horizontal frame; and

a horizontal fixing part formed on the plate part and including a first bent part and a second bent part which are supported by a horizontal part of the horizontal frame, and

wherein the first coupling part and the second coupling part are insertion-coupled through a space between an upper angular end portion and a lower angular end portion.

2. The fixing assembly of claim 1 , wherein the plate part includes an auxiliary plate part formed to be supported by the horizontal part of the horizontal frame at a lower end portion of the plate part.

3. The fixing assembly of claim 1 , wherein the lateral fixing part includes an auxiliary support part formed to be supported by the vertical frame at an end portion of the lateral fixing part.

4. The fixing assembly of claim 1 , wherein:

the angular end portions include an upper angular end portion and a lower angular end portion;

the first coupling part includes a first inclined part formed to be inclined upward and fixedly supported by the upper angular end portion and a second inclined part which is formed to be inclined downward and guides coupling of the first coupling part toward the upper angular end portion; and

a boundary part is formed between the first inclined part and the second inclined part.

5. The fixing assembly of claim 1 , wherein the second fixing clip includes:

a first flat part which is in contact with and coupled to the one surface of the fixed rail;

a second flat part formed to face the first flat part; and

a connection part which connects the first flat part and the second flat part and partially covers the horizontal frame.

6. The fixing assembly of claim 5 , wherein at least one of the first flat part and the second flat part includes a convex part which is convexly formed inward, induces hooking when coupled to the horizontal frame, and prevents separation after the coupling.

7. The fixing assembly of claim 5 , wherein the first flat part and the second flat part include a first guide part and a second guide part, respectively, which guide coupling when coupled to the horizontal frame.

8. The fixing assembly of claim 6 , wherein, when a distance D 1 is referred to as a distance between the first flat part and the convex part formed in the second flat part or between the second flat part and the convex part formed in the first flat part and a distance D 2 is referred to as a diameter of the horizontal frame, the distance D 1 is formed to be smaller than the distance D 2 .

9. The fixing assembly of claim 5 , wherein:

the second fixing clip further includes a lateral support part supported by the vertical frame; and

the lateral support part includes a third bent part formed to be bent outward from the second flat part and a fourth bent part which is formed to extend from the third bent part and is bent to be supported by the vertical frame.

10. A fixing assembly, comprising:

a wire rack including a vertical frame and a horizontal frame;

a slide rail including a fixed rail coupled to the wire rack and a movable rail disposed on the fixed rail to move in a sliding manner; and

a fixing unit which fixes the fixed rail to the wire rack,

wherein the fixing unit includes a first fixing clip provided at one side of the fixed rail and a second fixing clip provided at the other side of the fixed rail and has a structure in which the first fixing clip can be laterally fixed to the horizontal frame and then the second fixing clip can be vertically fixed to the horizontal frame,

wherein the first fixing clip includes:

a plate part which is in contact with and coupled to one surface of the fixed rail;

a lateral fixing part formed on the plate part and including a first coupling part and a second coupling part coupled to angular end portions of the horizontal frame; and

a horizontal fixing part formed on the plate part and including a first bent part and a second bent part which are supported by a horizontal part of the horizontal frame,

wherein:

the angular end portions include an upper angular end portion and a lower angular end portion;

the first coupling part includes a first inclined part formed to be inclined upward and fixedly supported by the upper angular end portion and a second inclined part which is formed to be inclined downward and guides coupling of the first coupling part toward the upper angular end portion; and a boundary part is formed between the first inclined part and the second inclined part, and

wherein, when a distance L 1 is referred to as a distance between the boundary part of the first coupling part and a lower end portion of the second coupling part and a distance L 2 is referred to as a shortest distance between the upper angular end portion and the lower angular end portion, the distance L 1 is formed to be greater than the distance L 2 .

11. A fixing assembly comprising:

a wire rack including a vertical frame and a horizontal frame;

a slide rail including a fixed rail coupled to the wire rack and a movable rail disposed on the fixed rail to move in a sliding manner; and

a fixing unit which fixes the fixed rail to the wire rack,

wherein the fixing unit includes a first fixing clip provided at one side of the fixed rail and a second fixing clip provided at the other side of the fixed rail and has a structure in which the first fixing clip can be laterally fixed to the horizontal frame and then the second fixing clip can be vertically fixed to the horizontal frame,

wherein the second fixing clip includes:

a first flat part which is in contact with and coupled to the one surface of the fixed rail;

a second flat part formed to face the first flat part; and

a connection part which connects the first flat part and the second flat part and partially covers the horizontal frame,

wherein at least one of the first flat part and the second flat part includes a convex part which is convexly formed inward, induces hooking when coupled to the horizontal frame, and prevents separation after the coupling, and

wherein, when a distance H 1 is referred to as a distance between a central axis of the convex part and the connection part and a distance H 2 is referred to as a distance between an upper end of an upper horizontal part and a lower end of a lower horizontal part, the distance H 1 greater than the distance H 2 .
