Fig. 1 , the slide rail assembly of the present invention comprises afirst rail 10, asecond rail 12, athird rail 14, afront support 16, arear support 18 and astop member 20. - The
first rail 10 has twofirst sidewalls 22 and afirst connection wall 24 connected between the twofirst sidewalls 22. Thefirst sidewalls 22 and thefirst connection wall 24 extend along the longitudinal direction and define afirst path 26. Thefirst connection wall 24 has anopening 28 defined in the front end thereof. - The
second rail 12 is slidably connected to thefirst path 26 of thefirst rail 10. Thesecond rail 12 has twosecond sidewalls 30 and asecond connection wall 32 connected between the twosecond sidewalls 30. Thesecond sidewalls 30 and thesecond connection wall 32 extend along the longitudinal direction and define asecond path 34. Ahandle 35 is connected to the front end of thesecond connection wall 32 of thesecond rail 12 so that the users can hold thehandle 35 to pull thesecond rail 12 from thefirst rail 10. - The
third rail 14 is slidably connected to thesecond path 34 of thesecond rail 12. Thethird rail 14 has twothird sidewalls 36 and athird connection wall 38 connected between the twothird sidewalls 36. Thethird rail 14 can be pulled out from thesecond path 34 of thesecond rail 12 and separated from thesecond rail 12. - The
front support 16 is connected to the front end of thefirst rail 10. - The
rear support 18 is connected to the rear end of thefirst rail 10 so that thefirst rail 10 is connected to a rack (not shown) by thefront support 16 and therear support 18. - The
stop member 20 has anarm 40, astop portion 42 and aguide portion 44, wherein thearm 40 has a fixedsection 46 and aresilient section 48 extending from the fixedsection 46. The fixedsection 46 is fixed to thefront support 16 as shown inFig. 2 and theresilient section 48 reaches to the front end of the adjacentfirst rail 10. Thestop portion 42 is located at theresilient section 48. Thestop portion 42 extends perpendicularly from theresilient section 48 and is inserted in thesecond path 34 of thesecond rail 12. Preferably, thefront support 16 has a throughhole 50. Thestop portion 42 extends through the throughhole 50 and is located in theopening 28. The height of thestop portion 42 is higher than that of thesecond path 34 of thesecond rail 12. Theguide portion 44 extends from thestop portion 42. Preferably, theguide portion 44 is tilted relative to the front end of thesecond rail 12 and the front end of thethird rail 14. Alternatively, as shown inFig. 3 , thefront support 16 has anelongate slot 52. Thestop member 20 extends through theelongate slot 52 and is connected to the front end of the adjacentfirst rail 10 by the fixedsection 46. Thestop portion 42 extends through theelongate slot 52 and is located in theopening 28. - When the
third rail 14 is separated from thesecond rail 12 and thesecond rail 12 is retracted in thefirst path 26 of thefirst rail 10, thestop portion 42 of thestop member 20 is located in thesecond path 34 of thesecond rail 12 so that thethird rail 14 is stopped by thestop portion 42 of thestop member 20 and cannot be inserted into thesecond path 34 of thesecond rail 12 as shown inFig. 4 . In other words, because thestop portion 42 extends into thesecond path 34 of thesecond rail 12 and protrudes relative to thethird connection wall 38 of thethird rail 14, so that thethird connection wall 38 of thethird rail 14 is stopped by thestop portion 42 of thestop member 20. By this arrangement, when thesecond rail 12 is not yet pulled out from thefirst rail 10, thethird rail 14 cannot be connected to thesecond rail 12. - When the users want to insert the
third rail 14 to thesecond rail 12, as shown inFig. 5 , thesecond rail 12 needs to be pulled out from thefirst rail 10 by the use of thehandle 35 on thesecond rail 12 first, along with thesecond rail 12 is pulled, theguide portion 44 of thestop member 20 is pushed by thesecond connection wall 32 of thesecond rail 12, so that thestop portion 42 of thestop member 20 is gradually moved away from thesecond path 34 of thesecond rail 12. Because thesecond connection wall 32 continuously presses thestop portion 42, thestop portion 42 cannot be inserted into thesecond path 34 of thesecond rail 12. Therefore, thethird rail 14 can be successfully inserted into thesecond path 34 of thesecond rail 12. - The
second rail 12 needs to be positioned after it is pulled out from thefirst rail 10 so as to prevent thesecond rail 12 from re-entering into thefirst rail 10 when thethird rail 14 is to be connected to thesecond rail 12. In one preferable embodiment, as shown inFigs. 1 and4 , thesecond connection wall 32 of thesecond rail 12 has a positioningmember 54 and thefirst connection wall 24 of thefirst rail 10 has arestriction member 56 which is located corresponding to the positioningmember 54. When thesecond rail 12 is partially pulled out relative to thefirst rail 12, as shown inFig. 5 , the positioningmember 54 contacts therestriction member 56 so as to restrict thesecond rail 12 from being retracted relative to thefirst rail 10. Preferably, thethird connection wall 38 of thethird rail 14 has arelease member 58 which is located corresponding to the positioningmember 54 of thesecond rail 12. When thethird rail 14 is inserted into thesecond rail 12, as shown inFig. 6 , therelease member 58 pushes the positioningmember 54 away from therestriction member 56, so that thesecond rail 12 can be retracted relative to thefirst rail 10. - As shown in
Fig. 7 , when thethird rail 14 is inserted into thesecond rail 12, and thesecond rail 12 and thethird rail 14 are retracted relative to thefirst rail 10, theguide portion 44 of thestop member 20 faces the front end of thesecond rail 12 and the front end of thethird rail 14. Therefore, when thesecond rail 12 and thethird rail 14 are pulled relative to thefirst rail 10, the tiltedguide portion 44 provides a guiding surface for thesecond rail 12 and thethird rail 14 and both of which are smoothly pulled. -
Figs. 8 and9 show that, in another embodiment, if thestop portion 42 of thestop member 20 is located in thesecond path 34 of thesecond rail 12, but thestop portion 42 does not protrude beyond thesecond path 34 of thesecond rail 12, by the assistance of theprotrusion 60 that extends from thethird connection wall 38 of thethird rail 14 and toward thesecond path 34, when thethird rail 14 is to be inserted into thesecond path 34 of thesecond rail 12, theprotrusion 60 of thethird rail 14 is stopped by thestop portion 42 of thestop member 20. - While we have shown and described the embodiment in accordance with the present invention, it should be clear to those skilled in the art that further embodiments may be made without departing from the scope of the present invention.
