Abstract: Slide assemblies that include at least an inner slide segment and an outer slide segment. Many of the slide assemblies also include an intermediate slide segment interposed between the inner slide segment and the outer slide segment. The inner and outer slide segments include a plurality of rollers separated into upper rows and lower rows. The slide assembly can also include lock arrangements to secure individual slide segments in desired positions relative to one another. The slide assemblies preferably include mounting brackets, which, in some arrangements, include mounting pin assemblies capable of use with at least three mounting hole sizes or shapes.

Abstract: Slide assemblies that include at least an inner slide segment and an outer slide segment. Many of the slide assemblies also include an intermediate slide segment interposed between the inner slide segment and the outer slide segment. One or more of the segments can be constructed of an aluminum material and one or more of the segments can be constructed from a steel material. The inner slide segment includes a plurality of rollers separated into an upper row and a lower row. The inner slide segment also includes a plurality of keyholes separated into pairs, each of which includes an upper keyhole and a lower keyhole. The slide assembly can also include lock arrangements to secure individual slide segments in desired positions relative to one another. The slide assemblies preferably have a narrow cross-sectional width and a relatively high static and operational load rating.

Abstract: Slide assemblies that include at least an inner slide segment and an outer slide segment. Many of the slide assemblies also include an intermediate slide segment interposed between the inner slide segment and the outer slide segment. The outer slide segment is constructed from a bent piece of material having a substantially uniform wall thickness. The outer slide segment is formed to have a wall portion, an upper portion and a lower portion. Each of the upper portion and lower portion include two layers of the piece of material. A mounting assembly for a slide assembly includes at least one bracket having at least a first pin and a second pin movable relative to the first pin. The second pin can surround and slide upon the first pin and can be biased to a first position and movable to a second position relative to the first pin.

Abstract: A slide assembly having an outer segment, an intermediate segment, and an inner segment telescopically engaged with one another. The slide assembly includes forward pair of rollers and a rearward pair of rollers having a diameter that is greater than a diameter of the forward pair of rollers. The outer segment includes a protrusion that limits vertical movement of the intermediate slide segment. The intermediate segment includes a stop member arranged to contact a portion of the inner segment to limit vertical movement of the inner segment relative to the intermediate segment. The inner segment includes a stop arrangement that contacts the intermediate segment to define a closed position of the inner segment. The outer segment includes a stop member and a strengthening rib is positioned near a surface of the intermediate segment that contacts the stop member.

Abstract: A non-disconnect drop-in ball bearing slide assembly adapted to support an object, such as a computer server, includes a stationary slide and an intermediate slide slidably connected to the stationary slide with at least one ball bearing interposed between the intermediate slide and the stationary slide. A ball bearing retainer has a top member and a base member, the top and base members extending along a length, with a first plurality of ball bearings extending along the length of the base member, and a second plurality of ball bearings extending along at least a portion of the length of the top member. The non-disconnect drop-in ball bearing assembly also includes a moveable slide extending along a length and having a top rail and a bottom rail. The moveable slide has at least one slot formed on the top rail for receiving a mounting post of an object, such as a server or server mounting arm.

Abstract: A cable management device for managing cables extending between a support rack and an object slideable in and out of the support rack includes a support having a stop member and a mounting surface that is removably fastenable to the support rack. A first elongate member extends between a proximal end and a distal end and is pivotably fastened to the support at the proximal end. A second elongate member extends between a proximal end and a distal end, the proximal end of the second elongate member pivotably fastened to the distal end of the first elongate member. The first and second elongate members are movable from a folded position where the elongate members are substantially adjacent each other to an unfolded position, wherein the stop member limits the rotation of the first elongate member between the folded and unfolded positions to about ninety degrees.

Abstract: A slide assembly including a first slide segment, a second slide segment, and a third slide segment. A bearing assembly is provided between the second slide segment and the third slide segment. A lock arm extends from the third slide segment and is engageable with an engagement surface of the second slide segment to limit movement of the third slide segment with respect to the second slide segment. A controller is associated with the second slide segment and comprises a locking portion and an actuator portion. The locking portion extends through an opening in a side wall of the second slide segment towards the bearing retainer. The locking portion is selectively engageable with the bearing retainer to limit movement of the bearing assembly. The actuator extends through an opening in a side wall of the second slide segment between the first slide segment and the lock arm to actuate the lock arm and thereby disengage it from the engagement surface when the slide assembly is retracted.
