Abstract: The invention is a fluidic damper which comprises a closed cylinder (100) containing a valve mechanism. The valve mechanism is attached to a piston rod (110), a portion of which (the piston rod) emerges through an opening in one end wall of the cylinder (100). The valve mechanism (90) comprises a disc (10) with an axle (15), a rotatable annular cover piece (20) and an annular turning piece (40). A spring (30) is disposed between the cover piece (20) and the turning piece (40).

Abstract: A guide rail assembly for slidably opening and closing a drawer within an enclosure is disclosed. The assembly comprises a mounting bracket (10) for fixing the assembly to the enclosure, a fixed rail (20) on the mounting bracket for receiving an intermediate rail (30), an intermediate rail capable of sliding back and forth relative to the fixed rail, an outer pull out guide (40) for attachment to the drawer and being capable of sliding back and forth on the intermediate rail relative to the intermediate rail and the fixed rail, a protrusion (43) on the bottom surface of the outer pull out guide, a damping device (80) and a channel guide (60) disposed along the mounting bracket adjacent the fixed rail. The damping device is resiliently compressible in a lengthwise direction and the channel guide is provided with a sliding member (70).

Abstract: A sliding guide rail assembly is provided for slidably mounting a drawer or equipment within a cabinet or chassis. The rail is formed from a sheet metal into a T-shaped section onto which a sliding means fits and slides smoothly thereon. Guides also formed from a sheet metal into C-sections fitting over the sliding means and operable to slide smoothly therewith. This enables the drawer/equipment mounted on the slide to be drawn in and out with little effort or wear and tear.

Abstract: A drawer assembly comprising a front panel, a rear panel, a bottom panel, two side panels and two side rails is disclosed. Each side panel extends between the front and rear panels at a respective side of the drawer assembly and has an associated one of the side rails vertically spaced from that side panel. A rear end of the side rail is connected to the rear panel by means of a clip having a locking formation, the clip being provided on one of the side rail and the rear panel, and a complementary locking formation provided on the other of the side rail and the rear panel. The portion of the other of the side rail or rear panel that has the complementary locking formation is insertable into the clip to bring the locking formation and complementary locking formation into an interlocked condition.

Abstract: An improved closing device for opening and closing a slidable drawer is presented. The device entails an elongate hollow cylindrical housing having an axial slot extending from one end over at least a part of the body and second axial slot being ‘L’ shaped where the leg of the L is adjacent and substantially parallel to first slot. A cylindrical member is slidable in the body with the projection extending from the member inserted into a second slot. The cylindrical piece with angled groove is able to receive a pin attached to the guide rail of the drawer so that when the draw is opened the pin pulls the cylindrical piece along the first slot towards the angled section. The cylindrical piece rotates and locks due to the extension on second slot. Furthermore, when the drawer is closed the pin on the guide rail, when pushed in, engages with the first slot that rotates the cylindrical piece thus releasing the extension and the spring pulls the drawer to a closed position.

Abstract: A sliding guide rail assembly (20, 20a, 20b) is provided for slidably mounting a drawer or equipment (10) within a cabinet or chassis. The rail (33a) is formed from a sheet metal into a T-shaped section onto which a sliding means (40, 40a, 40b, 40c) fits and slides smoothly thereon. Guides (50, 120, 150, 160) also formed from a sheet metal into C-sections fitting over the sliding means (40, 40a, 40b, 40c) and operable to slide smoothly therewith. This enables the drawer/equipment mounted on the slide (20, 20a, 20b) to be drawn in and out with little effort or wear and tear.
