1. Technical Field
The present disclosure relates to device mounting, and particularly, to a slide rail.
2. Description of Related Art
A commonly used slide rail for mounting a server to a rack includes a first slide mounted to the rack and a second slide mounted to the server. The second slide is extendable relative to the first slide, so that the server can be extended from the rack. However, when the server is extended from the rack, the server may be damaged due to insufficient support strength between the first slide and the second slide.
Therefore, a slide rail is desired to overcome the limitations described.
Many aspects of the disclosure can be better understood with reference to the following drawings. The components in the drawings are not necessarily drawn to scale, the emphasis instead being placed upon clearly illustrating the principles of the present apparatus. Moreover, in the drawings, like reference numerals designate corresponding parts throughout the several views.
Referring to
The first slide 10 includes a first main plate 12 and two first side parts 14. The two first side parts 14 are symmetrically placed on two opposite sides of the first main plate 12, integrally extending from the first main plate 12 respectively. A first recess 144 is formed between inner sides of the two first side parts 14. A cross section of the first slide 10 is a C-shaped rectangle.
The second slide 20 includes a main body 21, an extending body 23, and a slide post 25.

Referring to
A diameter of the slide post 25 is less than a width of the rail 3112 of the extending body 23.
In assembly of the extending body 23 to the main body 21, the first part portion 331 of the extending body 23 is slidably received in the second recess 2114 of the main body 21 until a front end of the second part portion 332 of the extending body 23 reaches a rear end of each of the two second side parts 211 of the main body 21. The rail 3112 of the extending body 23 is aligned with the fixed hole 2104 of the main body 21, and the slide post 25 is passed through the rail 3112 and fixed to the fixed hole 2104. The extending body 23 has the rail 3112 abutting the slide post 25 to maintain the extending body 23 in the main body 21.
In assembly of the second slide 20 to the first slide 10, the second part portion 332 of the extending body 23 and the two second side parts 211 of the main body 21 are slidably received in the first recess 144 of the first slide 10 until the second slide 20 superposes to the first slide 10.
In use, the second slide 20 is withdrawn from a front end of the first slide 10, and the extending body 23 is withdrawn from a rear end of the main body 21 to enhance the support strength between the first slide 10 and second slide 20.
While the disclosure has been described by way of example and in terms of preferred embodiment, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited thereto. To the contrary, it is intended to cover various modifications and similar arrangements as would be apparent to those skilled in the art. Therefore, the scope of the appended claims should be accorded the broadest interpretation so as to encompass all such modifications and similar arrangements.
