Abstract
A pull-out slide for drawers, working leaves and other pull-out furniture parts has at least two guide rails which are displaceable in the longitudinal direction by bearing units. One guide rail is fastenable to a stationary part such as a furniture body, and another guide rail is fastenable to the pull-out furniture part. A bearing unit held between two guide rails may comprise several cylindrical roller bodies with axes of rotation perpendicular to the displacement direction. At least one roller body of a bearing unit, in the installed condition, is essentially horizontal between two guide rails, and two roller bodies are arranged so that the three axes of the three respective roller bodies form a triangle orthogonal to the displacement direction. One guide rail has a supporting web formed thereon. The supporting web extends between the first and second roller bodies into the triangle formed by the roller body axes, and engages the triangle formed by the roller body axes, so that a guide rail holds the sloped roller bodies together, thereby preventing the separation of the roller bodies.
