Definitions

  • the invention is directed to a snap closure for e.g. B. Garments, bags, tents or the like.
  • This short-circuit includes the push-button parts relevant for the desired push-button effect, which have mutually complementary, male-shaped or female-shaped closing surfaces and therefore briefly as “male part "and” die part "should be referred to.
  • the snap fastener parts are either attached to one and the same backing layer or to two separate backing layers by means of a connecting piece.
  • the push button part which is indirectly connected to its carrier layer via a connecting part, can change its position with respect to its carrier layer. By joining the male part and the female part, the associated carrier layers are connected so that they can be changed in position.
  • An adjustable snap fastener is known from US Pat. No. 1,537,810. With this snap fastener, the male part is connected to its carrier layer via a connecting part.
  • This connecting part consists of a complicated curved base plate, in which there are holes for receiving the pin-like end of the male part.
  • the male part itself consists of a bent sheet metal part which has an opening at the top into which a pressure part projects. This pressure part is mounted in the male part in such a way that its lower, thinner end can penetrate a lower opening of the male part and is received in the holes in the base plate. If this displaceable snap fastener is not closed, ie the male part and the female part are not clipped together, the male part slides freely in the guide of the connecting part.
  • a locking of the male part in the connecting part is achieved only by clipping the snap fastener together, in that said pressing part of the male part enters into a positive connection with the holes of the connecting part. If a changed push button position is to be achieved, this can only be done by opening the push button connection. Each time the lock is opened, the male part moves in the connecting part, so that the previous position is lost and the new desired lock position can only be found by trying it out. It is also disadvantageous with this adjustable snap fastener that it consists of a large number of parts which are complex to manufacture and that its functionality in daily use is slightly impaired by dirt or washing processes or the like.
  • Another snap fastener is known from patent specification DE 650 156. With this snap fastener there is a matrix that has several receptacles for one male. These receptacles in the die consist of holes arranged longitudinally to one another, which interact with the die. The snap fastener is adjusted by selecting a hole in the die. In this known snap fastener, a connecting part is dispensed with, since the longitudinally designed die simultaneously takes on this task. A disadvantage of this snap fastener is that only a special male with the mentioned die can cooperate and that the die must be bent and punched in a complex manufacturing process.
  • the invention has for its object to develop a simple and reliable snap fastener of the type mentioned in the preamble of claim 1, which is simple and inexpensive to manufacture and allows adaptation to its carrier layer. This is achieved according to the invention by the measures listed in the characterizing part of claim 1, which have the following special meaning.
  • the connecting part which is used to fasten a male or female part to its carrier layer, can adapt to the deformation of this carrier layer.
  • the connecting part consists of a flexible material.
  • the snap fastener according to the invention can thus also be used for jackets, pants or the like. This is particularly important in the area of the sleeve or leg cuff, since the base layer here assumes small radii.
  • complementary latching means are arranged in the connecting part and in an associated push button part, which permit permanent secure positioning of the push button part on the connecting part.

  • the adjustable snap fastener 10 contains at least two complementary snap fastener parts, namely a male and a female part 11, 12.
  • the two complementary snap fastener parts 11, 12 are used to make a connection by being able to be clipped together.
  • a carrier layer 19, to which the male part 11 is fastened can be brought into overlap with another or the same carrier layer 20, on which the female part 12 is arranged.
  • the snap fastener 10 is adjustable, at least one push button part 11, 12 is indirectly connected to its carrier layer 19, 20 via a connecting part 21.
  • a indirectly attached male part 11 is shown in FIG.
  • the male part 11 is slidably mounted on the connecting part 21 by means of a closed guide.
  • the connecting part 21 consists of a flexible material so that it can easily adapt to a deformation of the carrier layer 19, 20. Furthermore, complementary latching means are arranged in the connecting part 21 and an indirectly attached push-button part 11, 12, which allow the corresponding push-button part 11, 12 to be permanently and securely positioned on the connecting part 21.
  • the permanently secure positioning guarantees at all times that the indirectly attached push button part 11, 12 is held in its position on the connecting part 21 both in the open and in the closed state of the push button fastener 10.
  • An adjustment of the snap fastener 10 is therefore only possible by deliberately deliberately overcoming or releasing the locking means.
  • the adjustability of the snap fastener 10 is essentially dependent on the design of the complementary locking means, which will be discussed in more detail in the text below.
  • the connecting part 21 with the push-button part 11 are arranged to form a closed, straight guide.
  • the closed guide can also follow any other guideway, such as a circular path.
  • one component of the closed guide of the connecting part 21 consists of a continuous, elongated slot 22.
  • the other component of the closed guide is formed by a taper 16 between a lower and an upper flange 14, 15 of the push button part 11, 12 formed, as shown in Fig. 4 for the male part 11.
  • the push-button part 11, 12 can only have a central flange and the connecting part 21, on the other hand, has an upper and a lower one Bulge, which protrude into the slot 22, in which the flange of the push button part 11, 12 is held in a form-fitting manner.
  • the push-button part 11, 12 could also comprise the connecting part 21 in a U or ring shape and be displaceable thereon.
  • the connecting part 21 would have to be designed in the manner of a rail. It is important that the corresponding push button part 11, 12 laterally clasps the rail-like connecting part 21. The flexibility of the connecting part 21 can easily be increased by the measure mentioned last.
  • the connecting part 21 designed in this way would be connected to the carrier layer 19, 20 on the longitudinal side, for example via a connecting seam.
  • recesses 23 are present in the connecting part 21, so that the lower flange 14 does not protrude from the connecting part 21 to the carrier layer 19.
  • the interaction of the recess 23 in the connecting part 21 with the lower flange 14 of a push-button part 11 can be seen in FIGS. 3a and 3b.
  • Recesses 23 can also be arranged on the visible side of the connecting part 21 for the upper flange 15 of the push-button part 11.
  • the complementary latching means already mentioned have the task of realizing the permanently secure positioning of the attached push button part 1 1, 12 on the connecting part 21, thereby preventing the attached push button part 11, 12 from slipping or adjusting independently at any time.
  • the locking means can act positively and / or non-positively with one another.
  • a form-fitting positioning of the push-button part 11, 12 on the connecting part 21, which is present in the case of latching means acting in a form-fitting manner with respect to one another, has the advantage that the push-button part 11, 12 can in no way independently move onto the connecting part 21.
  • the adjustment of the snap fastener 10 can only be effected by deliberately overcoming or loosening the positive connection between the locking means.
  • the adjustment of the snap fastener 10 is effected by simple but strong pulling on the indirectly attached push button part 11, 12.
  • the form fit between the complementary locking means can only be overcome by a high tensile force are generated by a reversible deformation of the locking means of the flexible connecting part 21.
  • a changed position of the push-button part 11, 12 can be easily effected, for. B. by direct application of force.
  • the complementary locking means are to be coordinated with one another, as has already been mentioned, so that an independent movement of the push-button part 11, 12 is avoided. This is e.g. B. possible in that an existing positioning force (clamping force), which exists through the non-positive locking means, is significantly above a possible, unwanted pulling force.
  • the locking means of the connecting part 21 consist of cutouts 24 in sections in the slot 22, which cooperate with the taper 16 between the lower and upper flange 14, 15 in the male part 11, this is in the Fig. Lb, 3a and 3b shown. It is also conceivable to connect the die part 12 to a carrier layer 20 so as to be displaceable indirectly via a connecting part 21. Here, an additional taper can also be formed between the upper part 17 and the lower part 18 of the die part 12, which cooperate with the recesses 24 in the slot 22 of the connecting part 21.
  • the latching means consist of projections in the slot 22 of the connecting part 21, which cooperate with indentations in the taper 16 in the male or female part 11, 12. This feature is not shown in the figures, but certainly represents a viable alternative to the exemplary embodiments shown.
  • the latching means mentioned can also consist of an unlockable locking device in order to reversibly fix the male or female part 11, 12 on the connecting part 21.
  • a displacement of the attached push button part 11, 12 on the connecting part 21 would then only be possible by unlocking the locking device beforehand.
  • This is an absolutely secure hold the push button part 1 1, 12 secured on its connecting part 21 and thus on its carrier layer 19, 20, although, if desired, other positions of the push button part 11, 12 on the carrier layer 19, 20 can be achieved.
  • a conceivable embodiment for an unlockable locking device would be, for example, if the upper flange 15 of the male part 11 were mounted so as to be resiliently variable in relation to its lower flange 14.
  • the recesses for the upper flange 15 would have to be deepened in the connecting part 21 on the visible side at the points at which a fixed, form-fitting positioning of the push-button part 11 is desired.
  • the positive connection could be canceled and the push-button part 11 could be moved to another fixed position by displacement.
  • Material weaknesses 25, for example in the outer edge region, are provided for fastening the connecting element 21 (e.g. by sewing it onto its carrier layer 19, 20). This weakening of material 25 is intended to make it easier to fasten the connecting part 21. It is also conceivable to achieve an improvement in the flexibility of the connecting part 21 by means of the material weakenings 25 attached. For this purpose, the material weakenings 25 transverse to the desired direction of buckling of the connecting part 21, for. B. rib-like.
  • the connecting part 21 can advantageously be connected to the carrier layer 19, 20 by sewing, gluing or welding or other connecting methods. Of course, a combination of the individual connection methods is also possible.
  • the connection method to be selected should be made dependent on the application purpose of the snap fastener 10. For example, in the case of raincoats or tents, which must be watertight, it would be particularly suitable to weld the connecting part 21 to its carrier layer 19. In contrast, it would be conceivable, for example in the case of suitcases, to sew the connecting part 21 for optical reasons or to rivet it with the corresponding carrier layer 19, 20.
  • the connecting part 21 consist of a curved shape. The corresponding connecting part 21 is shown in FIGS.
  • This pre-curved shape is particularly suitable for arm and leg bands.
  • the curvature shown in FIG. 5c can of course also take a steeper course.
  • the curvature must not only be arcuate, but can also run in an S-shape or otherwise. Due to the pre-bent shape of the connecting part 21, a very great flexibility of the connecting part 21 can be dispensed with.
  • a conventional female or male part 12, 11 for the complementary push-button part 11, 12, which is attached indirectly via the connecting part 21 to its carrier layer 20, 19, can be used for the snap fastener 10 according to the invention.
  • the conventional female or male part 12, 11 could be manufactured in ongoing series production, which could save additional manufacturing costs. Only in the event that both the male part and the female part 11, 12 are displaceably and indirectly supported by connecting parts 21 on their carrier layers 19, 20 would corresponding push-button parts 12, 11 according to the invention have to be used.
  • both complementary push-button parts 11, 12 indirectly to their support layers 19, 20 via connecting parts 21.
  • This measure increases the adjustment range of the snap fastener 10. If the die part 12 is connected to a carrier layer 20 via a connecting part 21, the connecting part 21 can either on the upper, visible or on the lower, non-visible side of the carrier layer to be ordered. The decision is certainly dependent on the application of the snap fastener 10.
  • the connecting part 21 As a flexible material for the connecting part 21, it is proposed to use plastic.
  • the properties and flexibility of the connecting part 21 can essentially be determined by the appropriate selection of the plastic. It is also conceivable to use a composite material that combines several positive properties of individual materials for the connecting part 21. In addition, various metallic alloys can certainly be used as a flexible material.

Abstract

Des fermetures par bouton-pression réglables (10) connues sont constituées d'au moins deux parties de bouton-pression complémentaires l'une à l'autre, plus précisément d'une partie de matrice négative (11) et d'une partie de matrice positive (12), qui peuvent être mises en prise l'une avec l'autre afin de former une liaison. Selon cette invention, au moins une partie de bouton-pression (11) est fixée à une couche support (19), par l'intermédiaire d'une partie de connexion (21). L'autre partie de bouton-pression (12) peut éventuellement être directement reliée à une couche support (20) ou par l'intermédiaire d'une partie de connexion (21). Cette fermeture par bouton-pression modifiable (10) permet aux couches support (19, 20) de venir se superposer, par jonction de la partie de matrice négative (11) et de la partie de matrice positive (12). Cette fermeture par bouton-pression réglable (10) permet également de modifier cette superposition. Afin de pouvoir également utiliser cette fermeture par bouton-pression (10) avec des vêtements tels que des vestes, des pantalons, etc., la partie de connexion (21) doit pouvoir s'adapter à sa couche support (19). De plus, cette fermeture par bouton-pression (10) doit pouvoir faire l'objet d'un réglage facile et sûr. A cette fin, la partie de connexion (21) est constituée d'un matériau souple, permettant de suivre une déformation de la couche support (19), et des systèmes de verrouillage complémentaires, montés dans la partie de connexion (21) et dans une partie du bouton-pression (11) indirectement installée, assurent un positionnement sûr en permanence de la partie de bouton-pression (11) sur la partie de connexion (21). En outre, cette fermeture par bouton-pression (10) doit être constituée de parties peu nombreuses et faciles à produire.
