Abstract

Among other things, the invention relates to a straight guide with at least two support rods (12a, 12b), wherein each support rod is movably guided within amount (15a, 15b) and can be secured with a latch (16) with relation to the amount (15a, 15b), wherein the latch (16) comprises at least one elastically deformable strip (17) that is permanently arranged relative to the mount, having at least one freely movable end section (18a, 18b), wherein each end section (18a, 18b) interacts with at least one notch (23).It was the object of the invention to create a straight guide with a latch, where the possibilities of arranging an actuation of the latch are more versatile.The uniqueness lies in the fact that the actuator comprises a slider (27) with at least one actuating projection (33) that can be moved in at least one first direction (x1, x2), and in at least one second direction (y1, y2) and that a movement actuator (34) is provided that redirects the slider (27) into the first direction in such a way when it is moved into the second direction (y1, y2) that the actuating projection (33) moves the latch (16) into the released position.
