Patent No. EP3372114 (titled "Coupling Mechanism And Slide Rail Assembly For Furniture Part") was filed by King Slide Technology on Nov 7, 2017. The application was issued on Dec 15, 2021.
A coupling mechanism for slide rail assemblies, comprising a first base, a second base, a lateral adjustment member, and a transmission structure. The second base is movably mounted on the first base, and the lateral adjustment member is rotatably mounted on one of the bases to adjust the second base's position. The transmission structure converts the lateral adjustment member's rotary motion into lateral displacement of the second base. The mechanism is detachably engaged with a slide rail through a coupling base with elastic portions that mate with engaging structures on the first base.
