ABSTRACT:
A self-closing drawer guide includes a spring assembly with a piston disposed in an elongated cylindrical housing, with a piston rod attached to the piston and protruding from one end of the cylindrical housing. The spring assembly applies a force, when the drawer is being closed and when the drawer approaches the closed position, and holds the drawer in the closed position under pretension. The spring of the spring assembly that pretensions a ratchet element of the self-closing mechanism via the piston rod is arranged between the piston and one of the end walls that at least partially closes the end face of the cylindrical housing, whereby the housing of the spring assembly is fixedly arranged on the rail of the guide that supports the movable ratchet element.
