Abstract (en)
A drawer locking mechanism comprises a slide assembly (16) slidably mounted in a slot (14) provided in a guide member adapted to be secured to an inside face of a piece of furniture, such as a filing cabinet. The slide assembly comprises first, second and third slide members (20, 22, 24) for each drawer, and at an upper part of the guide member, a stop (26). The three slide members are separable within the guide member (10), and are urged into engagement by a spring (30) acting downwardly against the stop (26). Each of the first slide members (20) has fixedly secured thereto an abutment member (32) and each second slide member (22) has pivotally mounted thereon an actuating member (40), comprising a laterally extending arm (42). On opening movement of a drawer (6), a locking pin (50) projecting from the side face of the drawer engages the arm (42) urging the actuating member (40) in an anti-clockwise direction, causing the abutment member (32) to lift, until engaged with cam surfaces of the actuating member. In this raised position of the abutment member, opening movement of a further drawer is prevented. <IMAGE>
