Abstract
The invention concerns a drawer slide with width equalization and, if necessary, centering, including a cabinet-side and a drawer-side slide rail for both sides of the drawer. At least one elastic, springy flexible width equalization element is on both sides of the drawer—each is located between the cabinet-side slide rail and the cabinet body, indirectly or directly by, for example, an angle rail. The cabinet-side slide rail is located, releasable, on the cabinet-attached angle rail, axially engaged, but still moveable crosswise/transversely and is lockable in the end position of the drawer. The advantage here is that any desired combination between the width equalization element and the slide rail can be set flexibly and, additionally, the drawer slide is easy to maintain and simple to repair or replace.
