  • Publication number: 20060108901
    Abstract: Provided is a locking device at a rear of an outer slide member of a drawer. The device comprises a groove including an intermediate shoulder and a spring loaded sliding member in the groove, the sliding member including a bottom stop surface, a top notch, and a front hook. In a retracting operation pushing an inner slide member will cause a projected lock pin thereof to contact the notch and retain therein; move the stop surface upwardly to disengage from a front end of the groove due to an upward pivot of the sliding member with respect to the lock pin; cause the inner slide member to continue its rearward pushing along the groove due to a compression of the spring; and end the retraction after the sliding member is stopped by the shoulder. The device can lock a retracted drawer slide.
