  • Publication number: 20170258226
    Abstract: A cabinet slide system includes a drawer or shelf and a telescoping slide member. The telescoping slide member can include a fixed base portion and a slidable portion. The slidable portion can be slidably engaged with the fixed base portion. The slidable portion can be coupled with the drawer or shelf so the combination of the drawer or shelf and the slidable portion is movable to extend away from the fixed base portion. The cabinet slide system can also include a rigid bracket and a support. The rigid bracket can be formed with a vertical section and a horizontal section perpendicular to the vertical section. The fixed base portion can be coupled with the vertical section. The support can be included in the horizontal section. The fixed base portion can be contiguously and detachedly rested on the support to arrest rotational torque of the telescoping slide member upon being placed under load.

  • Publication number: 20120049713
    Abstract: A drawer slide system having an elongated base channel, an intermediate assembly at least partially received within the elongated base channel, a longitudinally extending I-beam assembly at least partially received within the intermediate assembly, and a pantry mount lock assembly including forward and rearward mounting plates adapted to be coupled to a bottom surface of a drawer. The pantry mount lock assembly can be accessed through the bottom of the drawer to achieve engagement or disengagement between the pantry mount lock assembly and the I-beam assembly. The rearward mounting plates having lateral portions extending over the upper surfaces of the I-beam assembly upper flanges to permit a tilting adjustment of the drawer relative to the drawer slide system. A soft close assembly can be included to provide a soft close for the drawer. A vertically adjustable rear panel can inhibit goods from being lost over the back of the drawer.
