Abstract
An apparatus provides an extendable rail assembly including a track for securing to a rack, a first rail slidably coupled to the track, and a second rail slidably coupled to the first rail. The first rail is movable relative to the track between retracted and extended positions, wherein the first rail includes first and second rail sections coupled together by a pivot joint. The second rail is movable relative to the first rail between retracted and extended positions. Furthermore, with the first rail in the extended position and the second rail in the extended position, the pivot joint allows the second rail and the second rail section of the first rail to pivot relative to the track and the first rail section of the first rail. A pair of rail assemblies may be secured to a rack to support a member, such as a server.
