Claim:
In a drawer slide having a first slide member and a second slide member, with the first slide member being slideably extensible from the second slide member along a longitudinal axis of the first and second slide members, the improvement comprising: at least one catch mounted to the second slide member; a release lock moveably mounted to the first slide member for lineally moving from a lock position to a release position; a disconnect lock moveably mounted to the first slide member for lineally moving from a retaining position to a disconnect position; a release linkage slidably secured to the first slide member and extending from forward of said release lock and engaging said release lock, such that movement of said release linkage along the first slide member moves said release lock from said lock position, engaging said at least one catch to said release position, spaced apart from engaging said at least one catch, wherein said release position is spaced apart from said lock position in a lineal direction which extends transverse to the longitudinal axis of the drawer slide; a disconnect linkage slidably secured to the first slide member and extending from forward of said disconnect lock for engaging said disconnect lock, such that movement of said disconnect linkage along the first slide member moves said disconnect lock from said retaining position to said disconnect position, wherein said retaining position is spaced apart from said disconnect position in a lineal direction which extends transverse to the longitudinal axis of the drawer slide; bias means for urging said release lock into said lock position and said disconnect lock into said retaining position; and retainer means for slidably securing said release lock and said disconnect lock to the first slide member for moving in respective ones of said lineal directions.
