Slide assembly for extension table

Abstract

A pair of slide assemblies for use with an extension table are provided. The slide assembly comprises an inner slide member secured to a left leaf and including a first roller sub-assembly provided at an inner end, an outer slide member secured to a right leaf and including a second roller sub-assembly provided at an inner end, and a main slide member secured to a body of the table and including a roller assembly provided at either end and a belt run through the roller assemblies and the first and the second sub-assemblies. Pulling the outer slide member rightward will move the inner slide member to the left as the belt conveys around the roller assembly. The invention has the benefits of reducing sound produced during operation and enhanced structural strength.
