- The present invention relates to a drawer slide closing device.
- A closing device for a drawer is disclosed in European patent specification 0,391,221, wherein there is provided a pull-out rail which is mounted on the drawer side wall, and a supporting rail which is mounted on the furniture body side wall. Various rollers and/or balls are provided between such rails to facilitate smooth movement of the drawer, and to provide the function of bearing the load of the drawer. The closing device comprises a tiltable member which is connected with a spring and is mounted on the furniture body side wall. The closing device further comprises a pin member which is directly fastened to the drawer side wall. When the drawer is opened, the pin member engages with the tiltable member and pulls it forwardly and linearly along a guide track of the pull-out guide assemblies. The guide track includes a backwardly positioned and relatively long rectilinear portion and a forwardly located arcuate portion diverging laterally from the path of rectilinear portion. Thus, the tiltable member is displaceable relative to the furniture body in a forward direction. This relative movement continues until a predetermined relative position determined by the arcuate portion. When the tiletable member is moved into this arcuate position, it tilts about an axis determined by the curvature of the arcuate portion. The pin member withdraws from a slot of the tiltable member. Therefore, the tiltable member is locked in the tilted forward position.
- When the drawer then is to be inserted into the furniture body, it is moved backwardly until the pin member again engages in the slot of tiltable member. The movement of the pin member backwardly into slot releases the tiltable member from its locked position in arcuate portion. As soon as the tiltable member substantially returns to rectilinear portion of guide track, the force of spring thereby pulls the tiltable member backwardly.
- It has been found that the operation of the closing device of EP 0,391,221 is complicated. Also, if a drawer is moved in direction into the furniture body, noise may occur, particularly when the drawer bumps against the base portion of the furniture body.

A latch functioned as a switch is provided within the sliding slot and is moveable together with the sliding slot. The latch comprises a guiding channel that intersects with the open slot too. The supporting bracket comprises a straight guiding groove wherein the sliding member rides over the straight guiding groove for a linear movement. Both the sliding member and the latch are driven by the pin member.
- When the drawer is pulled out of the furniture body, the latch is moved into an opening or a dent of the supporting bracket, the latch moves along a direction perpendicular to a direction of pulling out of the drawer by means of the pin member.
- When the drawer is pushed into the furniture body, the pin member drives the guiding channel of the latch, thus withdraws the latch from the opening or the dent of supporting bracket, then the sliding member is urged by the force of spring back to a closed position.
- Preferably, the guiding channel is obliquely opened, wherein one inner side wall of the guiding channel is straight, and another inner side wall is provided with a positioning pit.

FIGS. 1 and 6 , when the drawer is to be closed, thepin member 3 fastened to the slidingrail 2 moves toward right and enters into the open slot 5.1 of the slidingmember 5. Due to the intersection between the open slot 5.1 and the guiding channel 6.2 of thelatch 6, thepin member 3 may enter into the guiding channel 6.2. With the closing of the drawer, the slidingmember 5 continues to move toward right, and in the meantime causes thelatch 6 to move toward right. Thus, the projection 6.1 oflatch 6 is released from the dent 4.1 of supportingbracket 4. Therefore, thelatch 6 moves outwardly along the slidingmember 3. Due to the bevel/arcuation of the guiding channel 6.2, the guiding channel 6.2 lifts gradually. Thepin member 3 that is always in a liner movement enters into the positioning pit 6.3 located at the bottom portion of the guiding channel 6.2. Thus, thepin member 3 is blocked and locked between the positioning pit 6.3 and the bottom portion of the open slot 5.1. Therefore, the drawer is closed gradually and silently under the buffer action of thedamper 8. - With reference to
FIGS. 2 and 7 , when the drawer is to be opened, thepin member 3 drives the slidingmember 5 and thelatch 6 to move toward left. While the projection 6.1 oflatch 6 is arriving at the edge portion of the dent 4.1 of the supportingbracket 4, the projection 6.1 enters into the dent 4.1 as thelatch 6 is driven by thepin member 3. Thus, both thelatch 6 and the guiding channel 6.2 are pressed downwardly. Therefore, thepin member 3 is released from the positioning pit 6.3 and moves upwardly along with the guiding channel 6.2, and in the meantime moves toward left within the open slot 5.1. As the drawer is opened gradually, thepin member 3 is withdrawn from the slidingmember 3. Thus, the slidingmember 5 and thelatch 6 are stopped and maintained within the dent 4.1 of the supportingbracket 4. - Returning to
FIG. 1 , the slidingmember 5 and thelatch 6 are driven by thepin member 3. When the drawer is pulled out or inserted into the furniture body, the slidingmember 5 is always in a linear movement, i.e. in the direction of arrow C as shown inFIG. 1 . While thelatch 6 is moving together with the slidingmember 5, the projection 6.1 moves along the straight groove 4.2 of supportingbracket 4. - Returning to
FIG. 2 , when the drawer is pulled out, the movement of thelatch 6 continues until the dent 4.1 of supportingbracket 4. Then thelatch 6 moves along a direction of arrow A as shown inFIG. 2 as driven by thepin member 3. When the drawer is pushed into the furniture body, thepin member 3 enters into the guiding channel 6.2 oflatch 6. Then thelatch 6 moves along a direction of arrow B as shown inFIG. 2 . - The present invention therefore provides a closing device for drawer slide, and accompanying useful related items. Although the invention has been described with respect to certain embodiments, it should be realized that the invention may be practiced other than as specifically described. Accordingly, the invention should be viewed as the claims supported by this specification and their equivalents.
