Please refer to FIGS. 1 and 2. A guide-type actuator assembly according to a first preferred embodiment of the present disclosure includes a guiding actuator member 1, which includes a body portion 11 and at least one corresponding actuating section 12. The body portion 11 is used to couple with a first object and cause a second object to move relative to the corresponding actuating section 12.

In the first preferred embodiment of the present disclosure, the guiding actuating member 1 further includes a first locating element 13 and a second locating element 14. The first locating element 13 is provided on the body portion 11 and is used to couple with a first object, such that a second object is movable relative to the corresponding actuating section 12 or the second locating element 14.

In the first preferred embodiment, the guide-type actuator assembly further includes an actuated member 2, which includes at least one actuating section 21. The guiding actuator member 1 and the actuated member 2 mutually guide each other to move. Wherein, the actuated member 2 can be the second object.

In the first preferred embodiment, the guide-type actuator assembly further includes a base 3, which can be the first object. The base 3 includes a first corresponding locating element 31. The first corresponding locating element 31 and the first locating element 13 are coupled with and located relative to each other.

In practical implementation of the present disclosure, the guide-type actuator assembly includes a guiding actuator member 1, an actuated member 2 and a base 3. Wherein, the guiding actuator member 1 includes a body portion 11, at least one corresponding actuating section 12, a first locating element 13 and a second locating element 14; and the actuated member 2 includes at least one actuating section 21 and a second corresponding locating element 22. The guiding actuator member 1 and the actuated member 2 mutually guide each other to move, and the second locating element 14 and the second corresponding locating element 22 are coupled with and located relative to each other. The base 3 includes a first corresponding locating element 31 coupled with the first locating element 13 to hold the base 3 and the guiding actuator member 1 together.

In the first preferred embodiment, the actuated member 2 can be a cover or a door, and the base 3 can be a box or a cabinet. In an example of application, the base 3 can be in a fixed and immovable state, the guiding actuator member 1 is connected to the base 3 by coupling the first locating element 13 of the guiding actuator member 1 with the first corresponding locating element 31 of the base 3, such that the first locating element 13 is longitudinally movably relative to and releasably from the base 3 but not transversely movable relative to the base 3. Then, the actuated member 2 is connected to the guiding actuator member 1 by coupling the second corresponding locating element 22 of the actuated member 2 with the second locating element 14 of the guiding actuator member 1, such that the second locating element 14 and the second corresponding locating element 22 mutually limit each other while allow the guiding actuator member 1 to actuate the actuated member 2 to move relative to it without separating therefrom during moving. Therefore, when the actuated member 2 is movably assembled to the guiding actuator member 1 while the latter is fixedly held to the base 3 through engagement of the first locating element 13 with the first corresponding locating element 31, the at least one actuating section 21 of the actuated member 2 can move in the at least one corresponding actuating section 12, allowing the actuated member 2 to move relative to the guiding actuator member 1. Since the guiding actuator member 1 is not transversely movable relative to the immovable base 3 through the engagement of the first locating element 13 with the first corresponding locating element 31, the base 3 does not move when the actuated member 2 is moved relative to the corresponding actuating section 12 of the guiding actuator member 1. Further, since the guiding actuator member 1 is longitudinally releasably from the immovable base 3, an assembled module of the actuated member 2 and the guiding actuator member 1 can be removed from the base 3 after the actuated member 2 has been moved relative to the corresponding actuating section to thereby easily disconnect the actuated member 2 from the base 3. To connect the actuated member 2 to the base 3 again, simply couple the first locating element 13 of the guiding actuator member 1 with the first corresponding locating element 31 of the base 3 and then move the actuated member 2 relative to the guiding actuator member 1 to its original position on the guiding actuator member.

In this manner, the guiding actuator member 1 can be operated to actuate the actuated member 2 to move relative to it without separating therefrom during the movement. Thus, at least two objects, i.e. the guiding actuator member 1, the actuated member 2 and the base 3, can be quickly connected together and easily disconnected from one another.
