<p>The mechanism comprises longitudinal rails (12) and, for each door, a double slide assembly (14) of which a first slide (16) slides along the rails and a second slide (18), constrained to the door (A), moves at right angles to the first slide (16) between a retracted position in which the door is closed and an extracted position in which the door is opened, at a distance from said first position at least equal to the thickness of the door or a multiple thereof. A longitudinal traverse of the slide assembly (14) is allowed only when the second slide (18) is in the extracted position with respect to the first (16). The retracted position is forced by spring means (36) between the second slide and the first slide. The width of the slide assembly is smaller than the width of the door, generally being half, a third or a quarter thereof. In a wardrobe with a plurality of doors, the mechanism allows any one of the doors to be opened with exactly the same extracting and sliding movement; it also allows more than one compartment to be opened at the same time, in practice as many as all the doors of wardrobe but one, in front of which the doors are disposed parallel to each other. <IMAGE></p> |
