Self-closing slide rail assembly with deceleration mechanism

摘要

A self-closing slide rail assembly with a deceleration mechanism (16) includes first and second rails (10, 12) and a self-closing mechanism (14), in addition to the deceleration mechanism (16). The self-closing mechanism (14) is mounted to the first rail (10) and includes an elastic member (34) for providing an elastic force in a first direction (D1). The deceleration mechanism (16) includes a deceleration spring (66) for providing an elastic force in an opposite second direction (D2). When the second rail (12) is displaced from an extended position toward a retracted position relative to the first rail (10), the self-closing mechanism (14) automatically drives the second rail (12) toward the retracted position due to the elastic force applied by the elastic member (34). Meanwhile, the elastic force of the deceleration spring (66) serves as a deceleration force, allowing the second rail (12) to move slowly to the retracted position.
