SLIDE RAIL HAVING FRONT RELEASE LATCH

摘要

A slide rail assembly (46) has first and second slide rails (50, 52), with the second slide rail (52) being telescopically extendible from the first slide rail (50). A latch member (122) is moveably mounted to the second slide rail (52) for engaging a catch portion (140) of the first slide rail (50) to latch the second slide rail (52) in a forward, extended position, cantilevered from the first slide rail (50). A release member (56) is slidably mounted to the second slide rail (52), and extends from a forward portion of the second slide rail (52) to an intermediate portion of the second slide rail (52) which is disposed substantially adjacent to the latch member (122). Movement of the release member (56) lineally moves the latch member (122) from engaging the catch portion (140) of the first slide rail (48) and releases the second slide rail (52) to move from the extended position.
