A drawer mechanism to moveably couple a drawer to a drawer support structure includes a pair of tracks that can be mounted to opposing inner sides of the drawer support structure. The mechanism further includes a pair of drawer stabilizer assemblies that can be mounted to opposing rear portions of the drawer. Each drawer stabilizer assembly can be moveably coupled with a corresponding track to provide opening and closing of the drawer. Each track includes a first section that is aligned with the direction of movement of the drawer and the second section that is substantially transverse to the direction of movement of the drawer. Each drawer stabilizer assembly includes a coupling mechanism that can couple the drawer stabilizer assembly to the second section of the track when the drawer is closed.

What is claimed is: 1. A mechanism to moveably couple a drawer to a drawer support structure, the mechanism comprising: a pair of tracks mountable to opposing sides of the support structure, each track having a first section aligned with a direction of movement of the drawer and a second section configured substantially transverse to the direction of movement of the drawer; a pair of drawer stabilizer assemblies mountable to opposing rear portions of the drawer, each drawer stabilizer assembly configured to moveably couple with a corresponding track; a coupling mechanism to couple the drawer stabilizer assemblies to the second section of the track when the drawer is closed; a first arm mountable to a corresponding rear portion of the drawer; a second arm pivotally coupled to the first arm; a spring coupled to the first arm and the second arm to bias the movement of the first arm angularly apart from the second arm relative to each other, wherein the first arm and the second arm are substantially perpendicular to each other when the drawer is disposed in an open position, and aligned to each other when the drawer is disposed in a closed position; and a wheel coupled to the second arm and configured to rotatably couple to a corresponding one of the tracks. 2. The drawer mechanism of claim 1, wherein the track includes an edge portion configured to prevent the wheel from decoupling from the track. 3. The drawer mechanism of claim 1, wherein the wheel is a gear, and wherein the track includes plurality of track teeth to engage the gear. 4. The drawer mechanism of claim 1, further comprising a shaft, wherein each wheel is coupled to an end of the shaft, and wherein the shaft is rotatably coupled to the second arms. 5. A structure comprising: a drawer support structure having a pair of opposing inner side walls; at least one drawer; at least one mechanism to moveably constrain the drawer in the drawer support structure, the mechanism comprising: a pair of tracks mounted to the opposing sidewalls, each track having a first section aligned with a direction of movement of the drawer at the front portion of the support structure and a second section configured substantially transverse to the direction of movement of the drawer at the rear portion of the support structure; a pair of drawer stabilizer assemblies mounted to opposing rear portions of the drawer, each drawer stabilizer assembly moveably coupled with a corresponding track; a coupling mechanism to couple the drawer stabilizer assemblies to the second section of the track when the drawer is closed; and a first arm mountable to a corresponding rear portion of the drawer; a second arm pivotally coupled to the first arm; a spring coupled to the first arm and the second arm to bias the movement of the first arm angularly apart from the second arm relative to each other, wherein the first arm and the second arm are substantially perpendicular to each other when the drawer is disposed in an open position, and aligned to each other when the drawer is disposed in a closed position; and a wheel coupled to the second arm and configured to roll on the corresponding one of the tracks. 6. The structure of claim 5, wherein the track includes an edge portion configured to prevent the wheel from decoupling from the track. 7. The structure of claim 5, wherein the wheel is a gear, and wherein the track includes plurality of track teeth to engage the gear. 8. The structure of claim 5, further comprising a shaft, wherein each wheel is coupled to an end of the shaft, and wherein the shaft is rotatably coupled to the second arms. 9. A mechanism to moveably couple a drawer to a drawer support structure, the mechanism comprising: a pair of tracks mountable to opposing sides of the support structure, each track having a first section aligned with a direction of movement of the drawer and a second section configured substantially transverse to the direction of movement of the drawer; a pair of drawer stabilizer assemblies mountable to opposing rear portions of the drawer; a shaft rotatably coupled to the drawer stabilizer assemblies, the shaft having opposing ends, wherein each end of the shaft is moveably coupled to a corresponding one of the tracks; and a first arm mountable to a corresponding rear portion of the drawer; a second arm pivotally coupled to the first arm; and a spring coupled to the first arm and the second arm to bias the movement of the first arm angularly apart from the second arm relative to each other, wherein the first arm and the second arm are substantially perpendicular to each other when the drawer is disposed in an open position, and aligned to each other when the drawer is disposed in a closed position; wherein the shaft is rotatably coupled to the second arm. 10. The mechanism of claim 9, further comprising a pair of wheels, each wheel being coupled to a corresponding end of the shaft, wherein each wheel is rotatably coupled to a corresponding track. 11. The mechanism of claim 10, wherein the track includes an edge portion configured to prevent the wheel from decoupling from the track. 12. The mechanism of claim 10, wherein the wheel is a gear, and wherein the track includes plurality of track teeth to engage the gear. 13. The mechanism of claim 9, wherein the first section of each track substantially extends up to a front opening of the support structure to allow the drawer to be pulled out beyond the front opening.
