Publication number: 20120183242Abstract: A slide rail assembly includes a first slide member, and a second slide member. The first slide member defines an opening. The second slide member forms a cantilevered resilient arm extending forwards. An engaging portion is formed on a distal end of the resilient arm. When the second slide member is received in the first slide member, the engaging portion is pressed by the first slide member to deform the resilient arm away from the first slide member. When the second slide member is slid forwards to be out of the first slide member, the resilient arm is restored to allow the engaging portion to engage with a section of the first slide member bounding a front end of the opening, to prevent the second slide member from sliding out of the first slide member.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 14, 2011Publication date: July 19, 2012Applicant: HON HAI PRECISION INDUSTRY CO., LTD.Inventors: CHEN-SHENG TANG, SHU-CHEN LIN, HUNG-TING SU
