A drawer glide mechanism can include a first elongate guide member, a second elongate guide member, a ball bearing component, a v-notch socket, a release mechanism, and/or a roller support. The first elongate guide member can include 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. In some cases, the drawer glide mechanism includes a release member configured to facilitate separation of the first and second elongate guide members when actuated and to inhibit or prevent accidental separation of the first and second elongate guide members.

A pressure release slide latch mechanism for a drawer slide assembly comprises an outer slide, an intermediate slide mounted in the outer slide, and an inner slide mounted in the intermediate slide, a channel plate having a track portion and a guide block attached to the outer slide and a carriage slidingly engaged and biased along the track portion. A pin of a follower pivotally attached to the inner slide engages the guide block to releasably maintain the drawer slide assembly in a closed position and releases upon an inward force applied to the drawer slide assembly.

A refrigerator is provided including a main body having a storage chamber, a door coupled with the front surface of the main body, to open or close the storage chamber, and a case having a rear surface facing the rear surface of the door the front part of the case having an opening. A door guide is in the case. A sliding apparatus enables the door guide to slide to be inserted into or pulled out of the case through the opening and includes a guide rail at a bottom of the door guide, an inclined guide portion in the case to guide the guide rail, a fixing rib at the rear end of the guide portion including a streamlined shape at the front end of the fixing rib and a supporting rib in the door guide supported by the fixing rib to prevent the door guide from moving.

A slide rail assembly includes a front bracket with an opening, a first rail movably connected to the front bracket and having a stop, a buffer member fixed on the first rail and located in the opening, a second rail displaceable with respect to the first rail, and an engaging member provided on the second rail and corresponding to the stop. When the second rail is displaced from a first to a second extended position with respect to the first rail, the engaging member is pushed against the stop, generating an impact force and displacing the first rail from a first to a second position with respect to the front bracket. The buffer member absorbs the impact force by hitting a wall of the opening.

A slide rail assembly includes first and second rails, a stop, a first engaging member, and a first releasing member. The second rail can be displaced between a retracted position and an extended position with respect to the first rail. The stop is located at the first rail. The first engaging member, movably connected to the second rail, is at an engaged position with respect to the stop when the second rail is at the retracted position with respect to the first rail. The first releasing member is configured to operatively drive the first engaging member away from the engaged position so that the second rail can be displaced from the retracted position toward the extended position with respect to the first rail.

A slide rail assembly includes a first rail, a second rail, a blocking base, a ball retainer and a blocking member. The second rail is movable relative to the first rail. The blocking base is arranged on the first rail and has a limiting part. The ball retainer is configured to facilitate the second rail to move relative to the first rail. The ball retainer has a contact part. When the blocking member is in a first state, the blocking member is configured to push the contact part of the ball retainer to move the ball retainer in response to a movement of the second rail until the blocking member abuts against the limiting part of the blocking base. When the blocking member is in a second state, the blocking member no longer abuts against the limiting part of the blocking base.

A pressure release slide latch mechanism for a drawer slide assembly comprises an outer slide, an intermediate slide mounted in the outer slide, and an inner slide mounted in the intermediate slide, a channel plate having a track portion and a guide block attached to the outer slide and a carriage slidingly engaged and biased along the track portion. A pin of a follower pivotally attached to the inner slide engages the guide block to releasably maintain the drawer slide assembly in a closed position and releases upon an inward force applied to the drawer slide assembly.

A slide rail assembly includes a first rail, a second rail and a handle. The second rail is movable relative to the first rail. The handle is pivotally connected to the second rail through a shaft member and movable to switch between a first state and a second state. The shaft member is arranged in a direction substantially identical to a moving direction of the second rail relative to the first rail.

A three-section slide rail device includes an outer section, a middle section and an inner section. The outer section includes an outer rail having an extension block formed on a sliding surface. The middle section includes an anti-retraction locking member pivotably connected with a middle rail. The inner section includes an inner rail having an abutment plate formed on an inner surface. The abutment plate abuts against and urges upwardly the anti-retraction locking member to keep the anti-retraction locking member. When the inner section is moved relative to the middle section to disengage the abutment plate from the anti-retraction locking member, the anti-retraction locking member is permitted to turn downwardly to allow the middle section to move to a short extended state, where the anti-retraction locking member abuts against the extension block to prevent a further extending movement of the middle section.
