The invention relates to a latching mechanism that is attachable to the outer surface of a cupboard drawer or door to prevent opening of the drawer or door by a child. The child safety latch 1 thus locks and prevents opening of a first drawer or door element 2 with respect to a second cabinet frame element 3. The latch fitting mechanism 1 includes a first engaging part 4 and a second engaging part 5. The first and second engaging parts each comprise enlarged engaging surfaces 6, 7 respectively, which provide mating surfaces to securely fit the first and second engaging parts respectively to the surfaces of the first door or drawer element 2 and the second carcass element 3. Holes are provided in the engaging surfaces 6, 7 for attachment to the inside surface of a side of the drawer or cupboard with mechanical fasteners, such as screws. The enlarged surfaces 6, 7 also serve as substrates for other securing means such as adhesive or Velcro (hook and loop) type fixing means. The first engaging part 4 includes a prong assembly 8 arranged in a plane at 90 degrees to the enlarged attaching surface 6. The prong assembly 8 includes a pair of resilient prongs 10 each comprising a hooked terminal end 12. The second engaging part 5 includes a receiving means 9 arranged in the same plane as the enlarged attaching surface 7 and includes a pair of receiving prongs 11 each with a receiving hook 13 corresponding to the terminal ends 12 such that when the first and second engaging parts are brought together they are become automatically engaged, by the terminal end hooks 12 becoming latched to the receiving hooks 13.

An anti-dropping storage drawer (ADSD) includes a pair of side walls, a front wall, and a rear wall forming a rectangular-shaped box, a base portion, and at least one projection. The front and rear walls extend between the side walls. The base portion extends between bottom portions of the side walls and the front and rear walls. The side walls, the front and rear walls, and the base portion define a cavity. The side walls and the front and rear walls taper outward toward an opening of the cavity. The projection projects from an underside of the base portion. When the ADSD is pulled out of a slot in a storage unit and inclines forward, the projection on the underside of the base portion blocks a forward and downward movement of the ADSD out of the storage unit.

A drawer slide is arranged for guiding a drawer (2, 4, 6) in an essentially linear movement as the drawer (2, 4, 6) is pulled out from a cabinet (8) to a static extended position (S). The drawer slide comprises at least one drawer biasing member arranged to bias the drawer (2) in a direction towards the cabinet (8) upon pulling the drawer (2, 4, 6) further away from the cabinet (8) beyond the static extended position (S) to a biased non-static extended position (B).

A drawer assembly includes a member having a first locking element. A drawer includes a frame and a handle having a first portion and a second portion. The first portion is coupled to the frame. The second portion is coupled to the first portion. A drawer release includes a first end and a second end and is rotatably coupled to the drawer. The first end includes a second locking element. The second portion is rotatable relative to the first portion to move the drawer release between a first orientation in which the second locking element directly engages the first locking element to prevent the drawer from translating relative to the member and a second orientation in which the second locking element is spaced apart from the first locking element to allow the drawer to translate relative to the member.

A shelving system includes first and second side members. A cross member is coupled to the side members. A guide member is coupled to the cross member such that the guide member is movable relative to the cross member. A container including a rail is coupled to the guide member. The rail includes a first locking element and a second locking element that is connected to the first locking element. The container includes a handle having a third locking element that engages the first locking element. The locking elements are configured to move the container between a first orientation in which the container is provisionally fixed to the guide member and a second orientation in which the container can translate relative to the guide member.
