  • Patent number: 7185959
    Abstract: The invention concerns a drawer slide with compensation of synchronous running errors of slide rails (equalize the errors of the relative positions of the slide rails to each other), having on each of the two side of the drawer a rail system, that has a cabinet rail fastened directly or indirectly by a cabinet angle on a cabinet body and is held directly or indirectly linearly movable by a linear bearing by a center rail on a drawer rail, which is connected directly or indirectly by a décor with the drawer; whereby a compensation mechanism is provided that has a compensation lever, that is connected by a pivot bearing directly or indirectly by a cabinet angle or linear bearing or décor with one of the rails, and during its turning at the end of each drawer closing cycle, reaches a positive/form-fitting position with stops, that directly or indirectly are connected by a cabinet angle or linear bearing or décor with the remaining rails and, thus, ensures each drawer closing is automatic, guided and has equalize

  • Publication number: 20040017138
    Abstract: The invention concerns a drawer slide that has a swiveling double-armed lever around a pivot bearing and whose lever arms extend out from the pivot bearing and whose first lever arm, depending on the closed position, forms a positive/form-fitting connection between a linearly moving part and a cabinet-fixed part of the drawer slide, and whose second lever arm is connected to the draw-pull tension spring's first end and the second end of the draw-pull tension spring, distanced from it by under spring extension to a linearly moved or cabinet-fixed part of the drawer slide, is fastened. When the drawer is pushed in, the form-closure of the lever's first arm is turned out of a rest position over a dead center position in an automatic position, such that a further turn of the lever automatically shortens the pre-stressed spring on the second lever arm, so thus, pulling the drawer slide with the drawer into the cabinet opening.
