DRAWER PULL-OUT GUIDE
A drawer pull-out guide includes a first guide rail, a second guide rail displaceably supported relative to one another, and a running carriage having load-transmitting rolling bodies displaceably arranged between the first guide rail and the second guide rail. The running carriage includes at least two rolling bodies rotatable about a rotational axis, and the at least two rolling bodiesin a view onto a plane perpendicular to a longitudinal direction of the guide railsare arranged so as to be laterally offset to one another. Each of the at least two rolling bodies has a cylindrical form and is rotationally supported about a horizontally extending rotational axis in a mounted position of the drawer pull-out guide, the rotational axes of the at least two rolling bodies are arranged in the same running plane, and the at least two rolling bodies have the same diameter.
DRAWER RAIL AND HOME APPLIANCE INCLUDING THE SAME
A drawer rail and a home appliance including the same are disclosed. The home appliance includes a drawer rail configured to withdraw an item accommodation unit provided in a storage chamber. The drawer rail includes a first rail mounted to the storage chamber, a second rail coupled to the item accommodation unit, a third rail disposed between the first rail and the second rail, a first retainer disposed between the first rail and the third rail to allow relative sliding movement, a second retainer disposed between the second rail and the third rail to allow relative sliding movement, a first stopper for limiting an allowable relative sliding distance between the first rail and the third rail, and a second stopper for limiting an allowable relative sliding distance between the second rail and the third rail.
Adjustable rack assemblies and end caps for appliances
Adjustable rack assemblies and end caps for appliances, such as a dishwasher appliance, is provided herein. A rack assembly may include a frame, a rack, a first front wheel, a second front wheel, and an end cap. The rack may be selectively mounted to the frame to receive articles for washing within a wash chamber, and may be slidable along the frame between an extended position and a retracted position. The first front wheel may be rotatably attached to the rack above the frame. The second front wheel may be rotatably attached to the rack below the first front wheel in vertical alignment therewith. The end cap may be attached to the frame at a forward end thereof. The end cap may define a top-end catch profile and a bottom-end relief profile.
