A linear motion mechanism, a drawer assembly, and a storage cabinet, relating to the technical field of linear motion. The linear motion mechanism comprises a rotating wheel around which a flexible cable is wound, the flexible cable being suitable for moving along with rotation of the rotating wheel, and the flexible cable comprising flexible cable sections located on the two sides of the rotating wheel; a rotation driving member which is connected to the rotating wheel and suitable for driving the rotating wheel to rotate; a mounting member, the mounting member being provided with a guide rail, a first fixed pulley being mounted on the mounting member; and a first-stage sliding rail which is suitable for sliding relative to the guide rail.

A movement control device comprising a housing with an elongate push rod mounted therein for reciprocal movement along a longitudinal axis between first and second positions, wherein the push rod extends out of said housing in both the first and second positions. A spring comprising a primary axis operable to provide a biasing force on the push rod is further provided in the housing. A damping device comprising a primary axis is located in the housing, wherein the damping device is in continuous engagement with the push rod through its reciprocating movement. The primary axis of the spring and the primary axis of the damping device are not coaxial.

A pullout guide for domestic appliances or furniture has a first rail, a second rail and a third rail mounted to be movable in relation to one another. The third rail is fixed on a body and the first rail is connected to a thrust element. A locking mechanism is provided to lock the first rail against movement in relation to the second rail in a predetermined locking position. The locking mechanism has a locking element that is pre-tensioned in a springy manner in the predetermined locking position.

A cabinet for securely storing items includes a drawer enclosure, a drawer, a cover, an electric actuator, and a switch. The drawer is slidable at least partially into and out of the enclosure, and includes a compartment. The cover is designed to block access to the compartment of the drawer when the cover is in a first configuration, and to allow access to the compartment when the cover is in a second configuration. The electric actuator is designed to move the cover from the first configuration to the second configuration. The switch is connected to the electric actuator, and when activated the switch selectively shorts the electric actuator. Sliding the drawer relative to the enclosure activates the switch.

An engagement assembly, a drawer, and a refrigerator having same. The engagement assembly comprises a first engagement part matching the drawer and a second engagement part matching a refrigerator body; one of the first and second engagement parts is a gear, and the other one is a rack; the rack has a tooth surface that allows the gear to travel; the rack comprises a main rack and an extension rack; when the drawer is in a closed state, the tooth surface has a first stroke length; when the drawer is in an opening process, the extension rack moves to a travel path of the gear so that the tooth surface has a second stroke length; when the drawer is in a closing process, the extension rack is reset the first stroke length is smaller than the second stroke length. The length of the tooth surface increases in the opening process.

A drawer guide includes a fixed body; an operation body withdrawable from the fixed body; a base; and a base slit. The base slit includes a linear portion; and a curved portion extending from a front end of the linear portion. The drawer guide includes first and second slides movably coupled to the base; a slide slit penetrating the second slide; a first transfer unit having one end movably coupled to the base slit and the other end inserted in the slide slit; a second transfer unit detachably coupled to the first transfer unit. The second transfer unit moves the first transfer unit to the curved portion from the linear portion when the operation body is moved in the withdrawing direction and vice-versa. The drawer guide includes a spring connecting the base and the first slide; and an attractive power supply unit that supplies a power to the second slide.
