FRICTION CONTROLLED DRAWER SLIDE MECHANISM

摘要

A friction controlled mechanism configured to operate in conjunction with an assembly having a moveable structure and a stationary structure. The mechanism includes a frame member having a length and a friction based flexible member slidably wrapped around a perimeter of the frame member such that the flexible member travels in opposite directions around the perimeter of the frame member during movement of the moveable structure toward and away from the stationary structure. The flexible member imparts a friction to side rails of the stationary structure and to side rails of the moveable structure to provide a controlled stable movement of the moveable structure.
