The locking assembly comprises a locking handle (21) mounted to the first rail (11) and a locking seat (23) located on the second rail (12). The locking part (211) of the locking handle (21) is locked to the locking seat (23) so that the first rail (11) can be locked and can not move when being folded to the second rail (12), and the drawer (2) is fixed relative to a wall (1). And when necessary, the user can release the locking relation between the locking handle (21) and the locking seat (23).
And, for example, U.S. Pat. No. 9,370,120 B2 discloses a slide assembly (12) comprising a bracket (28) and a fastener (58). Wherein the slide rail assembly is mounted to the post (13) of the frame (10) via two brackets (28, 30). Wherein the fastener (58) has a fastening portion (64). When the case (74) is in the retracted position through the slide rails of the slide rail assembly, a hook portion (84) on the case (74) can be snapped onto the latch portion (64) to lock the case (74) in the retracted position. The above two patents are incorporated herein by reference.
However, due to the conditions of the installation environment or the shape and configuration of the load bearing object, the rail must sometimes have a specific structure to satisfy the situation, in which the strength of the rail cannot satisfy the load bearing object too heavy, so that the rail is easily deformed by an unintended collision, an external force, or the weight of the load bearing object.

The carrier 22 is, for example, an electronic device or a chassis (Chassis). The frame 26 includes a plurality of columns. Such as a pair of first posts 26a and a pair of second posts 26b. Each slide assembly 24 is mountable to the frame 26 via a first bracket device 28 and a second bracket device 30.
The track assembly 24 includes a first track 32 and a second track 34 (also referred to as a track). Wherein, one end portion of the first rail 32, for example, a front end portion is provided with the first bracket device 28 (hereinafter referred to as bracket device 28), the other end portion of the first rail 32, for example, a rear end portion is provided with the second bracket device 30, and the second bracket device 30 is movably adjustable relative to the first rail 32 for mounting the first rail 32 to the first machine pillar 26a and the second machine pillar 26b; on the other hand, the second rail 34 is longitudinally displaceable relative to the first rail 32, and the second rail 34 is configured for mounting the carrier 22, such that the carrier 22 can be displaced from a retracted position R (shown in fig. 1) to an extended position E (shown in fig. 2) along with the second rail 34; or from the extended position E back to the retracted position R.
Preferably, the bracket assembly 28 includes a mounting feature 36 (see fig. 3 for a portion thereof), and the slide assembly 24 further includes a detent mechanism 38 disposed on the second rail 34. When the second rail 34 is at the retracted position R, the second rail 34 and the carrier 22 can be kept at the retracted position R by being locked to the mounting feature 36 by the locking mechanism 38. Alternatively, the second rail 34 can be moved away from the stowed position R after the detent mechanism 38 is released from the mounting feature 36.
As shown in fig. 4, the first rail 32 has a channel 40. Specifically, the first rail 32 includes a first wall 42a, a second wall 42b, and a longitudinal wall 44 connected between the first wall 42a and the second wall 42 b. The first wall 42a, the second wall 42b and the longitudinal wall 44 define the channel 40. Preferably, the bracket device 28 is disposed at a front end of the first rail 32, and the bracket device 28 includes a side wall 46, an end wall 48, and at least one mounting member 50 (only one is shown in fig. 4 due to the view angle). The side wall 46 is connected to the first rail 32; the end wall 48 is bent relative to the side wall 46; the at least one mounting member 50 is located on the headwall 48. Wherein the mounting feature 36 is provided adjacent the front of the end wall 48 (see also fig. 5 for a portion thereof).
As shown in fig. 4 and 5, the second rail 34 includes a first section 52 and a second section 54. The second section 54 is bent with respect to the first section 52. Here, the second section 54 is bent with respect to the first section 52 by a bending section 56 (this portion can be matched with fig. 6), and the second section 54 is substantially vertically connected to the first section 52. The first section 52 is mounted to the channel 40 of the first rail 32 and the second section 54 is located outside the channel 40.
Preferably, the latch mechanism 38 is disposed at the second section 54 of the second rail 34, and the latch mechanism 38 includes a latch member 58 and an operating member 60. The detent member 58 is configured to detent to the mounting feature 36 (e.g., an inner wall of a hole) of the bracket assembly 28, and the operating member 60 is configured to operate the detent member 58 to move to disengage from the mounting feature 36. For example, when the locking member 58 is locked to the mounting feature 36, the user can press the operating member 60 to drive the resiliently pressed locking member 58, so that the locking member 58 can be released from the mounting feature 36. Preferably, the second section 54 has an opening H through which the detent member 58 of the detent mechanism 38 can be snapped into the mounting feature 36.
Further, the rail assembly 24 includes a reinforcing structure 62 disposed on the second rail 34. The reinforcing structure 62 includes a first portion 64 and a second portion 66. The second portion 66 is bent with respect to the first portion 64. Here, the second portion 66 is bent with respect to the first portion 64 through a bending portion 68, and the second portion 66 is substantially vertically connected to the first portion 64. The first portion 64, the bent portion 68 and the second portion 66 are located in the first section 52, the bent section 56 and the second section 54, respectively (see fig. 6 for a portion thereof).
As shown in fig. 7 and 8, the second rail 34 and the reinforcing structure 62 can be regarded as a rail mechanism 100. Further, in this first embodiment, the reinforcing structure 62 is located adjacent the front portion 52a of the first section 52 of the second rail 34. The reinforcing structure 62 contributes to the structural strength of the first section 52, the bent section 56 and the second section 54 of the second rail 34.
The reinforcing structure 62 is fixedly disposed on one of the inner side S1 and the outer side S2 of the second rail 34, and the reinforcing structure 62 is disposed on the inner side S1 of the second rail 34. The first portion 64 and the second portion 66 of the reinforcing structure 62 are located at portions of the first section 52 and the second section 54 of the second rail 34, respectively. For example, the first portion 64 occupies only a portion of the first section 52 and the second portion 66 also occupies only a portion of the second section 54. In addition, the bending portion 68 of the reinforcing structure 62 is located at the bending section 56 of the second rail 34. Preferably, the reinforcing structure 62 is an additional member that is connected to the second rail 34.
Fig. 9 shows a slide rail mechanism 200 according to a second embodiment of the present invention. The sliding rail mechanism 200 is substantially different from the sliding rail mechanism 100 of the first embodiment in that: the second portion 206 of the reinforcing structure 202 has another opening 207 in communication with the opening H of the second section 210 of the second rail 208, such that the locking member 58 of the locking mechanism 38 can be locked to the mounting feature 36 through the openings H, 207. In addition, the second portion 206 of the reinforcing structure 202 includes at least one connection feature 212 connected to the second rail 208. The at least one connection feature 212 is, for example, a pair of hooks for engaging the second section 210 of the second rail 208, which helps to improve the structural strength and stability of the reinforcing structure 202 connected to the second section 210 of the second rail 208.
Fig. 10 and 11 show a slide rail mechanism 300 according to a third embodiment of the invention. The sliding rail mechanism 300 is substantially different from the sliding rail mechanism 100 of the first embodiment in that: the first portion 304, the bent portion 306 and the second portion 308 of the reinforcing structure 302 are integrally formed to the second rail 310, and a rib or a protrusion is formed thereon, which also has the effect of reinforcing the structural strength of the second rail 310.
