A drawer slide including a base member, a roller support, ball bearings and roll pins. The base member a track base and first and second walls. The first and second walls and the track base define a first channel. The first wall has a first race and the second wall has a second race. The roller support is within the first channel. The roller support has first and second side walls and a center section disposed between the first and second side walls. The first and second side walls are disposed adjacent the first and second walls. The center section is disposed adjacent the track base. The first and second side walls have bearing apertures. The center section has roller openings. The ball bearings are disposed the first and second races. The roll pins are in the roller openings in rolling contact with the track base.

An accommodation apparatus having anti-peeping function is disclosed, and comprises: an accommodating unit, two loading boxes, and two spacing gap filling unit. The two spacing gap filling unit is disposed between the two loading boxes, and between a top inner wall of the accommodating space and one of the two loading boxes that is located upper the other one. According to particular design of the present invention, after the two loading boxes are inserted into the accommodating space through the opening, one of the two elastic members closely contacting the bottom plate of the loading box, and the other one closely contacting the top inner wall of the accommodating space, such that the accommodation apparatus has advantages of anti-peeping and electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding, and enhances structural stability thereof.

A device for fixing a drawer-type element on a rail of a pullout guide has a clamping mechanism, which has a housing having a receptacle into which an oblong retaining part is insertable to fix it on the housing.

According to examples, an apparatus may include a guide system including a first gear having teeth to engage with a first set of teeth, a second gear having teeth to engage with a second set of teeth, the first gear and the second gear to rotate in concert with respect to each other, and a first glide mechanism to slidably contact a first channel. In addition, the apparatus may include a panel to employ the guide system to be slidably mounted to a base structure, wherein the first gear and the second gear are to impede rotation of the panel about a first axis and the first glide mechanism is to impede rotation of the panel about a second axis.

An accommodation apparatus having anti-peeping function is disclosed, and comprises: an accommodating unit, two loading boxes, and two spacing gap filling unit. The two spacing gap filling unit is disposed between the two loading boxes, and between a top inner wall of the accommodating space and one of the two loading boxes that is located upper the other one. According to particular design of the present invention, after the two loading boxes are inserted into the accommodating space through the opening, one of the two elastic members closely contacting the bottom plate of the loading box, and the other one closely contacting the top inner wall of the accommodating space, such that the accommodation apparatus has advantages of anti-peeping and electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding, and enhances structural stability thereof.

Disclosed are a guide rail for allowing a drawer to be smoothly opened and closed, and a storage apparatus and a refrigerator having the same. The refrigerator includes a drawer accommodating room; a drawer accommodated in the drawer accommodating room; and a rail configured to guide the drawer to be pulled out of or pushed into the drawer accommodating room. The rail includes a first member extended along pulling-out or pushing-in directions of the drawer and supporting the drawer; a second member extended corresponding to the first member and supported in the drawer accommodating room of the refrigerator; and a plurality of rolling elements arranged between the first member and the second member and being in rolling-contact with the first member and the second member when the drawer is pulled out or pushed in. The second member includes a load support surface having an inward height difference as much as a predetermined gap from a rolling contact surface with which at least one second rolling element different from a first rolling element among the plurality of rolling elements is in rolling-contact so that at least one of the first rolling elements among the plurality of rolling elements is in contact with the first member and the second member and support a load of the drawer in a state that the drawer is positioned in at least one of a critical pull-out section or a critical push-in section. Thus, the refrigerator equally maintains a degree of contact between the rolling element and the members while the guide rail works, thereby uniformizing the operation quality of the guide rail.

A slide rail mechanism includes a slide rail and a connection device. The connection device includes a first component, a second component, and an operating member. The first component is connected to the slide rail. The second component can be moved with respect to the first component. The operating member is configured to laterally displace, and thereby adjust, the second component with respect to the slide rail.

A sliding-pivoting mechanism of a shelf of a piece of furniture or of a household appliance for extracting and raising the shelf out of a body of the piece of furniture or of the household appliance is provided. The mechanism includes at least two pivot arms of a pivoting mechanism, which are rotatably fixed by a first end to at least one of the side walls of the body, parallel to the plane of the side walls, and which are arranged parallel to and at a distance from each other. At respective second ends of the pivot arms, a guide rail of a sliding mechanism is pivotably fixed parallel to the plane of the side walls such that the guide rail is pivotable from a lower position within the body into a raised, upper position at least partially outside the body, at least one running rail that is linearly displaceable in the guide rail and to which the shelf is fixed. The sliding-pivoting mechanism includes a lever unit supporting raising and lowering of the pivoting mechanism and is pivotably fixed to the running rail parallel to the plane of the side walls. A coupling element of a first coupling unit is arranged on the lever unit such that the coupling element is couplable to at least one of the pivot arms with a corresponding element of the first coupling unit, which corresponds to the coupling element, by displacing the running rail into a predetermined pivoting position.

A drawer guide for guiding a drawer which is extendable out of a carcass in an extension direction is provided with a guidance unit configured as a vertical guidance unit and a guidance unit configured as a lateral guidance unit. The two guidance units each comprise a carcass-side guidance rail and a drawer-side guidance unit mounted on rolling bodies. The two guidance units are coupled to each other by a coupling device.
