Abstract: A drawer interlock system for a multi-drawer filing cabinet includes respective cam units, one associated with each drawer. The cam units are aligned on a common axis and each unit includes an in-line cam assembly that includes a rotary cam and two stationary cams, one above and one below the rotary cam. When a drawer is opened, the rotary cam is turned, causing axial displacement of the stationary cams, which takes up available “play” in the system, locking the cam units of the other drawers and preventing them being opened.
