A self-closing telescoping mechanism that is used in a drawer slide (6) having three telescoping sections (8; 10; 12). A floater (14) is slidably mounted at the inner end of the outer section (8). The floater interacts with the inner section (12). When the drawer is opened, the floater (14) slides along the outer section (8) towards the outer end to a fully extended position. The floater is locked in the fully extended position and is released from the inner section (12). A spring (34) biases the floater toward the closed end. As the drawer is closed, the floater (14) is engaged by the inner section (12) and becomes unlocked. The spring (34) draws the floater (14) along with the inner (12) section and the middle section (10) to a fully closed position. The floater (14) can be mounted directly in the outer section (8) or in a covering (23) that is mounted in the outer section (8). |
