Abstract

Abstract A drawer slide assembly includes a channel shaped track member having formed in the side webs proximate one end of the track member a pair of longitudinal slots adjacent to the track member cross web. A mounting plate has a forwardly offset inner section projecting through a slot and superimposed on the cross web a rearwardly offset outer section coplanar with the cross web. The mounting plate is secured to the cross web by grommets integrally formed with the mounting plate inner section. A ball bearing roller is mounted on the outer section front face and a latch member is pivoted to the outer section outer border. In fabrication the roller and latch member are first assembled on the mounting plate which is then secured to the cross web. Two pairs of interfitting drawer slides are cooperatively associated with a slidable drawer and side supports.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 105 words
A drawer slide assembly comprising a longitudinally extending channel shaped track member including a cross web and side webs extending along and projecting forwardly from the longitudinal side edges of said cross web, one of said side webs having a recess formed therein proximate an end thereof and adjacent to and along said cross web, said cross web being substantially continuous from end to end, a transversely extending mounting plate projecting through said recess and overlying and secured to the front face of said cross web and a roller mounted on the front face of said mounting plate and transversely offset from said track member.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 105 words
A drawer slide assembly comprising a longitudinally extending channel shaped track member including a cross web and side webs extending along and projecting forwardly from the longitudinal side edges of said cross web, one of said side webs having a recess formed therein proximate an end thereof and adjacent to and along said cross web, said cross web being substantially continuous from end to end, a transversely extending mounting plate projecting through said recess and overlying and secured to the front face of said cross web and a roller mounted on the front face of said mounting plate and transversely offset from said track member.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 124 words
A drawer slide assembly comprising a longitudinally extending channel shaped track member including a cross web and side webs extending along and projecting forwardly from the longitudinal side edges of said cross web, one of said side webs having a recess formed therein proximate an end thereof and adjacent to and along said cross web, a transversely extending mounting plate projecting through said recess and overlying and secured to the front face of said cross web and a roller mounted on the front face of said mounting plate and transversely offset from said track member, said mounting plate including a forwardly offset inner section projecting through said recess and overlying said cross web and a rearwardly offset outer section coplanar with said cross web.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 124 words
A drawer slide assembly comprising a longitudinally extending channel shaped track member including a cross web and side webs extending along and projecting forwardly from the longitudinal side edges of said cross web, one of said side webs having a recess formed therein proximate an end thereof and adjacent to and along said cross web, a transversely extending mounting plate projecting through said recess and overlying and secured to the front face of said cross web and a roller mounted on the front face of said mounting plate and transversely offset from said track member, said mounting plate including a forwardly offset inner section projecting through said recess and overlying said cross web and a rearwardly offset outer section coplanar with said cross web.
