Abstract
A drawer rail structure includes two guide rails mounted to a piece of furniture, and two slide rails mounted to a drawer. Each of the guide rails is provided at a front end with a first roller, and each of the slide rails at a rear end with a second roller and at an upper edge with an inward stop plate. The stop plates press against tops of the first rollers when the second rollers rotate along the guide rails, guiding the drawer to slide in correct directions. An adjusting screw is provided at an outer end of each stop plate, and a spring plate is located below the adjusting screw to press against the top of the first roller. When the adjusting screw is turned to push the spring plate to a different height, a front panel of the drawer may be adjusted to a different vertical position.
