Abstract
Abstract A broiler drawer for a cooking range is carried by drawer guides each of which is made of a pair of similar metal channels each having a nylon guide block embracing and slidably guiding portions of the other and preventing metal-to-metal contact between the channels. The broiler drawer is releasably mounted on the movable channel by keyhole slots in its bottom wall engaging headed projections on the movable channel, and selectively releasable means within the broiler drawer normally hold the drawer against release from its guides.
