<p>A sliding assist mechanism includes a case (1) attached to one of a main body (7) and a mobile body (A); a latch (4) movably disposed in the case and switched between a standby state in which the latch is locked in the case and a retracted state in which the locking is released; a biasing device (3) for biasing the latches in one direction; and an operation member (8) attached to the other of the main body (7) and the mobile body. When the latch (4) is switched from the standby state to the retracted state, the sliding assist mechanism allows the mobile body to move from a first position to a second position on a main body side through the operation member (8) by biasing force accumulated in the biasing means (3). Essential parts of the mechanism include an engagement portion (42) at a normal time when the latches (4) engage the operation members (8) by interlocking the switching from the standby state to the retracted state, and an auxiliary engagement device (47) releasably engages the operation members (8) when the latch comes to the retracted state in a non-engaged state of the operation member relative to the engagement portion. A repairing structure can be further simplified by such sliding assist mechanism.</p> |
