Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a slide fastener arrangement.
  • the invention relates to a slide fastener arrangement of the kind defined in the preamble of claim 1.
  • US 3 624 871 A discloses a slide fastener arrangement of this kind wherein each fastener stringer or tape is provided with a pair of cooperating cover elements which resiliently embrace the corresponding row of coupling elements.
  • the slider of the fastener has an essentially S-shaped member secured to the upper wing of the slider body.
  • Said S-shaped member has an essentially square shape in top plan view, and defines superimposed channels which receive the two top cover members of the opposed stringer tapes.
  • US 4 099 302 A discloses a slide fastener with a slider having a body comprising a unitary wing or shield formed with a pair of laterally overhanging flanges which define guide channels for the fastener coupling elements and their supporting structures.
  • a divider member extends upwardly from the upper surface of said wing or shield and at its distal end forms a holder for the connection of a pull-tab.
  • US 1 893 420 A discloses a slide fastener wherein the slider comprises an upper wing and a lower wing linked by a post, a raised formation extending from the upper wing, and a pull-tab holder provided with longitudinal side grooves for receiving in-turned projections of the pull-tab.
  • WO 97/07702A and US-A-4 875 258 disclose double slide fastener arrangements wherein a single slider cooperates with two pairs of stringers or tapes to form a zip fastener and an associated waterproof fastener.
  • GB-A-1 487 494 discloses a fastener slider provided with means for preventing the intrusion of article edges into the slider body.
  • US-A-4 121 326 discloses a slider for a slide fastener provided with means for preventing jamming of a foreign matter within the slider.
  • the raised formation of the slider body has in plan view essentially the shape of a rounded triangle, elongate in the longitudinal direction of the slider, and is provided with a groove extending along its whole lateral contour.
  • the slider of the slide fastener arrangement according to the present invention may be smoothly moved back and forth and any scraping of the fabric edge portions by the pull-tab is prevented.
  • the slider 1 is comprised of a slider body 2 and a pull tab 9 pivotally attached to the slider body 2.
  • the slider body 2 may be manufactured as one piece from metal such as aluminium alloy, zinc alloy, etc. by means of die-casting process.
  • the slider body 2 may be manufactured from thermoplastic materials such as polyamide, polypropylene, polyacetal, polybutylene terephthlate, these thermoplastic materials having anti-abrasion reinforcing materials added thereto, etc, by injecting molding process.
  • the slider body 2 is comprised of a pair of upper and lower wings 3, 4 and a guide post 5 linking the upper and lower wings 3, 4.
  • the upper and lower wings 3, 4 are connected at their front end by the guide flanges 6 mounted along their respective opposed lateral edge portions and extending from the rear end up to substantially a mid portion thereof.
  • the upper and lower curved guide flanges 6 define therebetween a guide channel 7 for guiding fastener elements therethrough.
  • the slider body 2 further includes a raised formation 10 extending upwards from the upper wing 3, and a substantially C-shaped pull-tab holder 8 mounted on the upper surface of the raised formation 10 in cantilevered manner.
  • the pull-tab holder 8 is adapted to be permanently bent towards the upper wing 3 so as to engage and retain a pull tab denoted by reference numeral 9.
  • the pull-tab holder 8 is not limited to this construction.
  • the pull-tab holder 8 may be of any construction as far as it has a space enough to accommodate and retain the pull tab 9 therein.
  • a separate C-shaped hood or cover 8 may be moulded as a pull-tab holder.
  • the C-shaped hood-like pull-tab holder 8 may be adhered or fixed to the upper surface of the raised formation 10.
  • the pull tab 9 may be attached to the pull-tab holder via a link member instead of being directly attached thereto.
  • a pair of legs may be mounted as a pull-tab holder on the upper surface of the raised formation 10 so as to define a U-shaped space therebetween.
  • the legs are crimped and plastically deformed so as to retain the pull tab therein directly or via the link member.
  • the pull tab lies in the region partly defined by the upper surface of the raised formation 10 and the pull-tab holder 8.
  • the raised formation 10 of the slider body 2 is substantially of the shape of a rounded triangle elongated longitudinally of the slider 1 or in the direction of movement of the slider 1, as viewed in the plan view. As described more closely, the raised formation 10 is formed so as to project vertically from the upper surface of the upper wing 3 of the slider body 2.
  • the raised formation 10 has a pair of longitudinal sides and is tapered towards one or the rear end of the slider body 2 in such a way that the longitudinal sides become gradually closer to each other towards the rear end. In this embodiment, the raised formation 10 is tapered towards the rear end of the slider body 2.
  • the raised formation 10 is not limited to such taper. For example, it may be tapered towards the front end of the slider body 2.
  • the raised formation 10 extends vertically between the upper wing 3 and the pull-tab holder 8, and is provided on its opposite longitudinal sides with respective longitudinal grooves 11, which are adapted to guidingly receive the adjoining edge portions of a garment and to wedge them away from each other.
  • the longitudinal grooves 11 form part of a single groove extending around the entire periphery of the raised formation 10.
  • FIGS. 6 and 7 show a slide fastener SF comprising a pair of stringers 12, 12 such as woven strips and the respective rows of coupling elements 13, 14 mounted on the respective opposed edges thereof, as is well known per se.
  • This type of slide fastener SF may be used on two adjoining parts A, B of a garment (such as a slit of a pocket for example) provided in such a way to cover the upper surface of a slide fastener, although various other applications are possible, of course.
  • the stringers 12 of the slide fastener SF are sewn to the lining of the garment in such a manner that, as shown in FIG. 7 , the opening defined by and between the adjoining parts A, B of the garment and the opening defined by and between the pair of stringers 12 are substantially in alignment with each other, as is known per se.
  • the slider 1 shown in FIGS. 1 through 5 are reciprocally mounted on the stingers 12 so as to selectively couple and decouple the coupling elements 13, 13 of the stringers 12, 12.
  • the opposed edge portions A, B of the garment are sewn to the stringers in such a manner to come on the front side of the slider 1 on which the raised formation 10 is formed, so that, when the raised formation 10 engages between the adjoining edge portions A, B of the garment, the adjoining edge portions A, B come into contact with the longitudinal sides of the raised formation 10.
  • the slide fastener SF is attached to the garment in such a way that at this moment the adjoining edge portions A, B are lower than the upper surface of raised formation 10.
  • the pull-tab holder 9 and hence the pull tab 9 extend upwards from the upper surface of the raised formation 10 which are higher than the adjoining edge portions A, B of the garment, so that the edge portions A, B of the garment will not constitute any obstacle to the operation of the slider 1.
  • the raised formation 10 is provided on the opposed longitudinal sides with the respective longitudinal grooves 11 extending longitudinally of the adjoining edge portions A, B.
  • the adjoining edge portions A, B are guidedly received within the longitudinal grooves 11. Therefore, the slider 1 can be reciprocally moved smoothly without scraping or otherwise damaging the fabric of the adjoining edge portions A, B.
  • the pull-tab holder 8 project upwardly from the upper surface of the raised formation 10 at the position inner than the opposed longitudinal sides of the raised formation. This advantageously helps to further prevent the pull-tab holder 8 from interfering with the adjoining edge portions A, B of the garment.
  • the raised formation 10 of the slider body 2 is greater in height or the distance from the bottom to the top than the slider body 2 including the upper and lower wings 3, 4 and the guide post connecting them.
