Abstract

A pull-out aiding device is configured for mounting on an object, in which a corresponding apparatus is mounted. The pull-out aiding device includes a pulling member and a handle member. The pulling member includes a first pivot section and an abutting section for abutting against the corresponding apparatus to move the latter forward. The handle member includes a second pivot section and an operating section. The second pivot section is pivotally connected to the first pivot section, such that the handle member is turnable about the second pivot section relative to the pulling member and brings the latter to move forward.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A method for mounting a pull-out aiding device on an object, the pull-out aiding device having a pulling member and a handle member, the pulling member including a first pivot section, the handle member including a second pivot section, the second pivot section being pivotally connected to the first pivot section, the object having a first partitioning wall and a second partitioning wall and being configured for mounting a corresponding apparatus therein, the method comprising the steps of:
providing the pulling member with a first limiting unit, the first limiting unit includes two flanged bosses, each of the two flanged bosses has a body portion and a flange portion formed around a free end of the body portion, a distance between the two flanged bosses is fixed;
providing the first partitioning wall with a second limiting unit, the second limiting unit includes two quick-release guide rails, the two quick-release guide rails and the two flanged bosses corresponding to each other, each of the two quick-release guide rails has a rail portion and a quick-release hole portion communicable with the rail portion, a distance between the quick-release hole portions of the two quick-release guide rails is fixed; a distance between the two flanged bosses is larger than a distance between the quick-release hole portions of the two quick-release guide rails; each flange portion of the two flanged bosses having a size larger than a size of each body portion of the two flanged bosses and a width of each rail portion of the two quick-release guide rails and the size of each flange portion of the two flanged bosses being smaller than a size of each quick-release hole portion of the two quick-release guide rails;
inserting the flange portion of one of the two flanged bosses into the quick-release hole portion of one of the two quick-release guide rails, and moving the body portion of the one of the two flanged bosses in the rail portion of the one of the two quick-release guide rails; and
inserting the flange portion of another flanged boss of the two flanged bosses into the quick-release hole portion of another quick-release guide rail of the two quick-release guide rails, and moving the body portion of the another flanged boss of the two flanged bosses in the rail portion of the another quick-release guide rail of the two quick-release guide rails.

2. The method for mounting the pull-out aiding device on the object as claimed in claim 1 , wherein each flange portion of the two flanged bosses having a diameter larger than a diameter of each body portion of the two flanged bosses and the width of each rail portion of the two quick-release guide rails and the diameter of each flange portion of the two flanged bosses being smaller than a diameter of each quick-release hole portion of the two quick-release guide rails.
