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.

A drawer glide mechanism can include a first elongate guide member, a second elongate glide member, a ball bearing component, and a v-notch socket. The first elongate guide member includes a distal end that is configured to fit within an opening in the v-notch socket. The drawer glide mechanism can further include one or more floating members and fixed members.

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 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 slide rail assembly is provided and includes a first rail, a second rail movable with respect to the first rail, a working member, an operating member and a blocking member. When the second rail is located at an extended position with respect to the first rail and the working member is in a first state, the working member and a blocking feature of the first rail block each other for restraining the second rail from moving toward a first predetermined direction from the extended position. The blocking member is switchable between a blocking state and a non-blocking state for restraining the operating member from driving the working member to disengage from the first state or for allowing the operating member to drive the working member from the first state to a second state. Besides, a related slide rail kit is also provided.
