[0079] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are intended only to illustrate the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. It should also be noted that, for ease of description, the accompanying drawings only illustrate portions relevant to the present invention, not all of its components.

[0080] Example

[0081] Please see first Figures 1 to 7 As shown, the present invention is an adjustment mechanism 10, comprising: an adjustment seat 11, which has a non-enclosed adjustment hole 111, so that the adjustment hole 111 forms an arc-shaped feature A, and an arc-shaped internal thread B is provided in the adjustment hole 111. In this embodiment, the internal thread B has a second crest B1 and a second valley B2, but is not limited to this.

[0082] A screw 12 has an external thread C, which rotates relative to the internal thread B. When the screw 12 stops, the external thread C idles and pushes the internal thread B open, allowing the adjustment hole 111 to be opened by the arc-shaped feature A. In this embodiment, the external thread C has a first crest C1 and a first valley C2, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0083] like Figure 3A , Figure 3B , Figure 3C , Figure 3D and Figure 3E As shown, when the external thread C is rotated and displaced, a load force F1 is generated on the internal thread B, and an opening 112 is provided in the adjustment seat 11. The opening 112 corresponds to the arc-shaped feature A, so that when the arc-shaped feature A is expanded, the load force F1 is converted into an expansion force F2 toward the opening 112, which can also prevent the expansion force F2 of the arc-shaped feature A from being limited. When the external thread C pushes the internal thread B, the expansion force F2 is converted into an inertia force F3, and the original position is restored by the inertia force F3 of the arc-shaped feature A. Therefore, it will not be locked during the adjustment process. Further explanation, the first screw peak C1 is located at the second screw valley B2 and the second screw peak B1 is located at the first screw valley C2. When the first screw peak C1 rotates to the second screw peak B1, the first screw peak C1 pushes against the second screw peak B1, causing the first screw peak C1 and the second screw peak B1 to retreat to the second screw valley B2 and the first screw valley C2, respectively, but not limited to this.

[0084] Continuing from the above, in this embodiment, the screw rod 12 has a main adjusting wheel 121 and a secondary adjusting wheel 122 with a thickness less than that of the main adjusting wheel 121. The secondary adjusting wheel 122 has two beneficial effects. The first effect is that the secondary adjusting wheel 122 can assist the main adjusting wheel 121 to facilitate adjustment by the operator. The second effect is that there is a necked fixing rod 123 between the secondary adjusting wheel 122 and the main adjusting wheel 121, which can be straddled at a predetermined position for fixation. Moreover, the main adjusting wheel 121 and the secondary adjusting wheel 122 are in the shape of gears to facilitate adjustment by the operator, but this is not limiting.

[0085] Continuing from the above, in this embodiment, it may further include a bottom plate 13 provided on the adjustment seat 11, and the screw rod 12 is provided between the adjustment seat 11 and the bottom plate 13. The bottom plate 13 has a fixing piece 131, and the screw rod 12 is fixed by straddling the fixing piece 131 with the fixing rod 123. When the screw rod 12 of the adjusting mechanism 10 rotates left, right, forward or backward, the adjustment seat 11 moves left, right, forward or backward until the external thread C idles and pushes open the internal thread B, enabling the operator to feel the tactile sensation of idling rotation or hear the sound of idling rotation. Alternatively, the adjustment hole 111 extends a height-adjusting plate D with an inclined surface, and the position of the height-adjusting plate D is restricted by the bottom plate 13 and moves with the adjustment seat 11. When the screw rod 12 of the adjusting mechanism 10 rotates forward or backward, the height-adjusting plate D moves up or down until the external thread C idles and pushes open the internal thread B, enabling the operator to feel the tactile sensation of idling rotation or hear the sound of idling rotation, but this is not limiting.

[0086] Cooperate with Figure 4As shown, a quick release 20 thereof includes the adjusting mechanism 10 combined with a handle 21. The handle 21 is pivotally connected to the adjusting seat 11 of the adjusting mechanism 10. The adjusting seat 11 has a protruding pivot post 119, which is conducive to the pivotal connection of the handle 21 to the pivot post 119. And the adjusting holes 111 of the adjusting mechanism 10 and the screw 12 can be a single group or multiple groups, and can be arranged at any position of the quick release 20, so that the quick release 20 can perform axial adjustment, bi-axial adjustment or tri-axial adjustment. In this embodiment, one side of the handle 21 of the quick release 20 has a handle 211, and the other side of the handle 21 of the quick release 20 has a ratchet surface fastener 212. The handle 211 and the fastener 212 are combined by a bent connecting member 213. And the handle 211 has a first flexural foot E1, the fastener 212 has a second flexural foot E2 and a third flexural foot E3. The adjusting seat 11 has a first abutting wall 113 and a second abutting wall 114, and the first flexural foot E1 abuts against the first abutting wall 113, and the second flexural foot E2 and the third flexural foot E3 respectively abut against the second abutting wall 114. Therefore, when the handle 211 is pressed, the first flexural foot E1, the second flexural foot E2 and the third flexural foot E3 generate deflection changes, causing the fastener 212 to move towards the inside of the adjusting seat 11, but not limited thereto.

[0087] As Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown in the figure, a slide rail assembly 30 includes a rail 31; a cover 32, which is installed on the rail 31, and one side of the cover 32 has a latching surface 321, and the latching surface 321 is a ratchet surface; and a quick release 20, the ratchet surface of the fastener 212 of the quick release 20 is latched on the ratchet surface of the latching surface 321. In this embodiment, the other side of the cover 32 has a latch 322, the latch 322 is latched on the rail 31, and the adjusting base 11 of the adjusting mechanism 10 has a stopper 115 and a abutting piece 116, and the stopper 115 is blocked on one side of the cover 32 and the abutting piece 116 abuts against the upper end of the cover 32. Also, a first limiting hole 132 and a second limiting hole 133 are formed in the bottom plate 13. Cooperating with the adjusting base 11 having a first limiting feature 117 and a second limiting feature 118, the first limiting feature 117 is displaced relative to the first limiting hole 132 and the second limiting feature 118 is displaced relative to the second limiting hole 133, so that the adjusting base 11 is displaced in a limited manner. Then, a first mounting hole 134 and a second mounting hole 135 are formed in the bottom plate 13 to facilitate the installation of the quick release 20 on the drawer. At the same time, the bottom plate 13 has a hook 136, cooperating with the adjusting base 11 having a groove 120, and the groove 120 provides the hook 136 to be inserted and fixed, but not limited thereto. In addition, the rail 31 is movably displaced relative to an intermediate rail 33, and the intermediate rail 33 is movably displaced relative to the outer rail 34.

[0088] In summary, the technical means disclosed by the present invention indeed possess the utility model patent requirements of "novelty", "progressiveness" and "industrial applicability". I earnestly request your bureau to grant a patent to encourage creation, and I am extremely grateful.

[0089] However, the above-disclosed drawings and descriptions are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention. Any modifications or equivalent changes made by those who are familiar with this art within the spirit and scope of this case should still be included within the scope of the patent application of this case.
