A slide assembly including a first slide segment, a second slide segment, and a third slide segment. A bearing assembly is provided between the second slide segment and the third slide segment. A lock arm extends from the third slide segment and is engageable with an engagement surface of the second slide segment to limit movement of the third slide segment with respect to the second slide segment. A controller is associated with the second slide segment and comprises a locking portion and an actuator portion. The locking portion extends through an opening in a side wall of the second slide segment towards the bearing retainer. The locking portion is selectively engageable with the bearing retainer to limit movement of the bearing assembly. The actuator extends through an opening in a side wall of the second slide segment between the first slide segment and the lock arm to actuate the lock arm and thereby disengage it from the engagement surface when the slide assembly is retracted.

A sequencing mechanism for a slide assembly having at least three segments, including an outer slide segment, one or more intermediate slide segments and an inner slide segment. The sequencing mechanism ensures that the inner and intermediate slide segments extend together, from a substantially retracted position, until the intermediate segment reaches substantially full extension. The sequencing mechanism includes a sequence latch pivotally attached to the intermediate slide segment and configured to operate in both an upright orientation and an inverted orientation of the slide assembly. The latch has a hook portion at one end and a transversely extending tab portion at the opposing end. The hook portion selectively engages an opening in the inner slide segment to lock the inner slide segment to the intermediate slide segment. An actuator is connected to, or formed from, the outer slide segment and is configured to engage the tab portion of the latch to unlock the inner slide segment from the intermediate slide segment. In addition, the actuator engages the tab portion of the latch to lock the intermediate slide segment in a fully extended position.

A slide assembly is provided comprising a stationary slide segment, an intermediate slide segment, and a load-carrying slide segment. A bearing assembly is provided between the segments to reduce the friction therebetween. A lock arm extends from the load-carrying slide segment and is engageable with an engagement surface of the intermediate slide segment to limit movement of the load-carrying slide segment with respect to the intermediate slide segment when the load-carrying slide segment is fully extended. An elongated release member is slidably disposed within the channel of the load-carrying member, and as the release member is displaced inwardly, it depresses the lock arm thereby actuating the release mechanism by disengaging the lock arm from the engagement surface. The release mechanism remains actuated until the load-carrying slide segment is fully inserted into the intermediate slide member.

A slide assembly includes an inner slide segment, an intermediate slide segment, and an outer slide segment. A bearing assembly is provided between the inner slide segment and the intermediate slide segment. Preferably, a lock arm extends from the outer slide segment and is engageable with an engagement surface of the intermediate slide segment to limit movement of the intermediate slide segment with respect to the outer slide segment. A latch is associated with the intermediate slide segment and comprises a locking portion. The locking portion is selectively engageable with the bearing assembly to limit movement of the bearing assembly.

A slide assembly with a self-closing mechanism that includes a dampening mechanism. In one arrangement, the slide assembly includes an inner slide segment slidably coupled to an outer slide segment. The self-closing mechanism is configured to move the inner slide segment towards a retracted position when the inner segment is moved to within a predetermined distance from the retracted position. The slide assembly can also include a latch which is engaged during the closing process and functions to trigger the self-closing and dampening. In an arrangement, the slide assembly has a maximum width dimension of about 0. 4 inches or less, taking into account normal manufacturing variations. In an arrangement, a movable portion of the self-closing mechanism slidably engages a bearing race of the outer segment.

A slide assembly includes a first slide segment and a second slide segment, slidably connected to one another. A plurality of rollers or other mounts attached to a chassis or other surface are configured to be slidably received within a slide segment. Lockarm members attached directly to the chassis allow the chassis to be secured relative to the slide assembly. In addition, the lockarm members ensure that the chassis will not be accidentally removed from the slide assembly. Front and rear mounting brackets attached to the slide assembly provide an easy way of installing and removing the slide assemblies from a server cabinet or other rack structure or enclosure.

Slide assemblies that include at least an inner slide segment and an outer slide segment. Many of the slide assemblies also include an intermediate slide segment interposed between the inner slide segment and the outer slide segment. One or more of the segments can be constructed of an aluminum material, which is extruded into a final cross-sectional shape. A slide assembly can include a combination drop-and-lock and disconnectable inner slide segment. A slide assembly can include a lock closed arrangement having a lock arm that passes through an opening of a mounting rail of the server rack. A slide assembly can also include a self-resetting hands-free disconnect arrangement.
