2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, the above-mentioned slide rail slides through a fixed side rail having a substantially C-shaped cross section which is fixed to an apparatus body, and a plurality of balls rotatably held by a ball retainer on the fixed side rail. The movable side rail is movably held and has a substantially C-shaped cross section. The fixed side rail and the movable side rail have substantially the same length, and the ball retainer has a length of about one half of that length. . That is, the moving-side rail (developing unit or the like in which the moving-side rail is connected to the left and right ends)
With completely stored on the fixed side rail (device body),
The ball retainer (a plurality of balls) is located at the rear side of the fixed side rail and the moving side rail, and supports the developing unit (moving side rail) in this range, and the front side of the moving side rail is the fixed side rail. Is not substantially supported. There is no particular problem in the above-mentioned condition when using a light load such as a drawer.However, when using a heavy load such as a developing unit, the front end of the moving side rail is It shifts downward (the front end of the ball becomes the fulcrum,
The front end side is lowered), which is a so-called forward drooping state, and not only the developing unit cannot be stored at a predetermined position, but also a failure of the slide rail.

In order to solve this problem, as shown in FIG. 4, the front end of the fixed side rail a is fitted in the ball sliding groove c between the moving side rail b and the fixed side rail a, and is moved in the front-rear direction. Provided is a support member e having a columnar fitting support portion d formed in a predetermined length, and the lower fitting support portion d supports the bent edge b1 below the moving rail b. In addition, there is provided a slide rail that prevents the moving-side rail b from falling forward.

[0004] However, due to manufacturing errors, there is an accurate variation in the width of the developing section and the like, so the developing section and the moving rail b are connected, and the moving rail b is housed in the fixed rail a. In the state, the moving side rail b is slightly shifted from the predetermined position with respect to the fixed side rail a in a direction approaching or away from the substrate a1 of the fixed side rail a by an accuracy variation of the left and right width of the developing unit and the like. Becomes That is, since the fitting support portions d, d of the support member e are formed in a cylindrical shape, the outer surface of the sliding groove of the moving side rail b and the contact portion (contact area) of the fitting support portions d, d are formed. Then, there is a problem that a part of the outer surface of the sliding groove of the moving side rail b comes into strong contact with a part of the fitting support part d, and the sliding of the moving side rail b becomes heavy.

Since the fitting support portion d is formed in a cylindrical shape, the end of the bent edge b1 comes into contact with the cylindrical end surface, and the elasticity of the movable rail b returns to the original state. No force is applied again from the other side to force the bent edge b1
End of the support rails d, d, and the sliding groove and the fitting support parts d, d were fitted. However, if too much force is applied, on the other hand, the opposite moving side rail b May be disengaged from the fitting support portion d, so that a delicate force adjustment is required, and the operation becomes more complicated.

That is, even if the movable rail 2 is slightly displaced in the direction of the fixed rail 1 due to the precision variation of the developing unit and the like, the ball sliding grooves 20 and 20 are supported by the supporting protrusions 5.
3, 53 and the fitting projections 52, 52 have no effect on the sliding force as in the prior art.
Also, even if a load is applied to the moving rail 2, the inner surface of the upper bent edge 21 is supported by being in contact with the supporting surface 531 of the upper supporting projection 53, so that the moving rail 2 is not moved forward. Even if the moving side rail 2 protruding forward of the ball retainer 3 is elastically warped even if a force is unexpectedly applied to the moving side rail 2 from the side at the position in the middle of the movement without moving up. Since the support surface 531 is formed in a substantially horizontal shape, the bent edge 21 only moves on the support surface 531 and returns to the original position when the applied force is released. The support protrusions 52 are formed vertically so that the slide rail can be used for both left and right.

According to the first aspect of the present invention, the support member has a support protrusion protruding in the direction of the board of the movable rail and supporting the inner surface of the bent edge of the movable rail. Therefore, even if the moving side rail slightly shifts in the direction of the fixed side rail due to the precision variation of the developing unit, the ball sliding groove of the moving side rail (because it supports the inside of the bent edge, ), Since it is irrelevant to the support projection, it does not affect the sliding force as in the prior art. Further, even if a load is applied to the movable rail, the movable rail does not sag forward because it is supported by being in contact with the upper support protrusion on the inner surface of the upper bent edge.

According to the second aspect of the present invention, in addition to the above-described effects, the support member protrudes in the direction of the board of the movable rail and has a support surface for supporting the inner side of the bent edge of the movable rail. With the support projection, a force is unexpectedly applied to the moving rail from the side at the position where the moving rail is moving, and the moving rail protruding forward of the ball retainer is elastic. Even if it is warped, the bent edge only moves on the horizontal plane, so that when the applied force is released, it can return to the original position.

According to the third aspect of the present invention, in addition to the above-described effects, the support member has a fitting protrusion having a substantially semicircular cross section fitted into the ball sliding groove of the fixed rail, and a fitting protrusion. Since there is a bent edge fitting groove in which the bent edge of the moving side rail is located at a predetermined distance from the portion, the mounting work on the fixed side rail is very easy.
