Does this mechanism have a name?
Hi,
I'm brand new to this forum and even 'amateur' mechanical engineer is a term that I would use for someone way above my skill level so I apoligise in advance if I write something silly or break a forum rule or etiquette.
I'm trying to find out if this sort of mechanism has a name. The black bit is a slot and the yellow bit represents a pin or similar.
If you had these either side of a drawer, the pins mounted to the drawer and the upwards curve at the front, then the drawer would pull out straight for a while then lift up at the last point before dropping in to the little valley so that it doesn't slide back down without some effort from the operator.
