Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of furniture, specifically relating to an improved three-section synchronous slide rail. Background Technology

[0002] Most drawers on the market use three-section concealed slides to allow the drawer to slide outwards or retract inwards. The main components of these slides include a lower slide, an upper slide, and a middle slide positioned between them. A rack and pinion mechanism is installed between the middle slide and the upper slide, and between the middle slide and the lower slide. Because the racks in this mechanism are mounted on the upper and lower slide rack pulleys, while the gears are mounted on the middle slide, when the middle slide is immobilized under load, and the force between the upper slide and its rack pulley exceeds the frictional force, the upper slide, located above the rack pulley, can still slide relative to it. However, the racks and gears do not actually drive the middle and upper slides synchronously, resulting in a "false synchronization" problem. Utility Model Content

[0056] In this embodiment, the first upper load-bearing component 901, the second upper load-bearing component 902, the first lower load-bearing component 1001, and the third lower load-bearing component 1003 are all load-bearing wheels; the load-bearing wheels are vertically arranged; the second lower load-bearing component 1002 is a ball bearing; the upper guide wheel group 13 and the lower guide wheel group 14 are both guide wheels, and the guide wheels are horizontally arranged.

[0057] By setting the first upper load-bearing component 901, the second upper load-bearing component 902, the first lower load-bearing component 1001, the second lower load-bearing component 1002, and the third lower load-bearing component 1003, the upper rail 2 and the middle rail 3 can be supported and limited vertically, so that the improved three-section synchronous slide rail of this utility model has sufficient load-bearing capacity; at the same time, since the upper guide wheel group 13 and the lower guide wheel group 14 are set, the upper rail 2 and the middle rail 3 can be limited horizontally, thereby ensuring that the improved three-section synchronous slide rail of this utility model has better stability during operation.

[0059] In addition, limit blocks 8 are respectively provided at both ends of the upper rail 2, the middle rail 3 and the lower rail 4. The limit blocks 8 can be used to limit the maximum extension stroke of the improved three-section synchronous slide rail of this utility model, and at the same time, they can prevent the upper load-bearing wheel group 9 and the lower load-bearing wheel group 10 from dislodging from the upper rail 2, the middle rail 3 and the lower rail 4.

[0060] See Figures 1-9 The improved three-section synchronous slide rail of this utility model has a gear and rack transmission mechanism between the upper rail 2 and the middle rail 3, and between the middle rail 3 and the lower rail 4. The first transmission rack 5 is installed on the upper rail 2, the second transmission rack 7 is installed on the lower rail 4, and the transmission gear 6 is installed on the middle rail 3. Therefore, when the upper rail 2 moves, it will inevitably drive the middle rail 3 to move. Thus, the middle rail 3 and the upper rail 2 achieve "true synchronization". This is beneficial for the improved three-section synchronous slide rail of this utility model to achieve precise transmission and smooth sliding, thereby extending the service life of drawers and other furniture.

[0061] The above are preferred embodiments of the present utility model, but the embodiments of the present utility model are not limited to the above content. Any changes, modifications, substitutions, combinations, or simplifications made without departing from the spirit and principle of the present utility model shall be considered equivalent substitutions and shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
