Abstract

An interlocking structure of drawers having a fixing bracket, a rotatory cam, two braking slides, and a guide plate is disclosed. The rotatory cam is inserted into a mounting trench of the fixing bracket such that a large pillar of the rotatory cam can be inserted into an arc-shaped limit trench for controlling the angular rotation of the rotatory cam. The braking slides are connected to each other such that a push block of the rotatory cam can push the braking slides outwardly. The guide plate is fixedly mounted at the front end of the sliding means, and a guide slideway is mounted on a lateral surface of the guide plate corresponding to the large pillar of the rotatory cam. The large pillar is guided by the guide slideway for movement, and the large pillar is guided by the guide slideway for controlling the angular rotation of the rotatory cam.

Claims

1. An interlocking structure of drawers having a fixing bracket, a rotatory cam, two braking slides, and a guide plate, the fixing bracket being fixedly mounted at one end of a track structure, a pivotal hole being formed on the top center of the fixing bracket, an arc-shaped limit trench being formed on the top of the fixing bracket, a slideway being longitudinally formed on the bottom of the fixing bracket for insertion of the braking slides, the braking slides being connected to each other so as to form a rectangular trench for holding a push block of the rotatory cam, the guide plate being fixedly mounted at a front end of the sliding means, a guide slideway being formed on a lateral surface of the guide plate corresponding to the rotatory cam, the improvement comprising:

a large pillar being extended from an outer edge of the rotatory cam for being inserted into the arc-shaped limit trench on the top of a mounting trench for controlling an angular rotation path of the rotatory cam, a rotatory shaft being protrudent from the center of the rotatory cam for being inserted into the pivotal hole formed on the top center of the fixing bracket such that the rotatory cam can be inserted into the mounting trench of the fixing bracket for performing rotation by adopting the rotatory shaft as an axis; and

a front guide trench being formed on the guide slideway corresponding to the large pillar of the rotatory cam such that the large pillar is guided by the front guide trench of the guide slideway for driving the rotatory cam and that the large pillar is guided by the guide slideway for controlling the angular rotation of the rotatory cam.

2. The interlocking structure of drawers of claim 1, wherein the front guide trench has a slanted surface.

3. The interlocking structure of drawers of claim 1, wherein the front guide trench has a slanted surface, and the slanted surface can push and guide the large pillar to enable the rotatory cam to perform pivotal rotation and enable the large pillar to be inserted into the guide slideway.
