Definitions
- the present invention relates to a stop for a slide fastener, for stopping the sliding of a slider thereof.
- the invention relates to a stop for a slide fastener of the kind defined in the preamble of claim 1.
- the invention also relates to a slide fastener to which such a stop is attached, and a method for the manufacture of such stops.
- top plate and bottom plate are herein meant the plate members of a stop which in use in a garment or the like face the outside and the inside thereof, respectively.
- top edge and bottom edge of the stop and in particular of the top plate thereof, to indicate the edges which in use are essentially perpendicular to the direction of displacement of the slider.
- top edge is the edge facing the fastener elements or teeth and the “bottom edge” is that facing in the opposite direction.
- EP 0 237 068 A1 discloses an end stop for a slide fastener of the above-defined kind.
- the end stop is made of a thermoplastic material capable of being melt by ultrasonic or HF-fusion.
- US 2008/0115337 A1 discloses bottom end stops for slide fasteners having rather complicate shapes, wherein the lower side of the top plate is provided with flanges pointing towards the bottom plate, and the upper side of the bottom plate is similarly provided with flanges pointing towards the top plate.
- US2884691 discloses a method for forming a plurality of stops comprising pressure rolling a wire member into a desired cross-sectional shape, and cutting the rolled wire member to the size of the stops.
- the lower side of the top plate is provided further with projections pointing downwards toward corresponding projections which protrude upwards from the upper side of the bottom plate.
- Such prior stops for slide fasteners can be typically manufactured by die casting.
- the top plate has an upper flat surface adapted to be provided with a decoration, such as letters, marks and/or designs.
- the lower side of the bottom plate which in use is on the inside of, for instance, a garment, has an overall surface which is quite uneven and marked by a deep central groove, which may prevent the stop from being felt as smooth.
- a first object of the present invention is to provide a stop for a slide fastener which has a quite simpler cross-sectional shape, though ensuring a remarkable holding strength.
- a second object of the invention is to provide a stop for slide fasteners which feels smoother in use, for instance when used in a garment or the like.
- a third object of the invention is to provide a stop which permits the automatical detection of the longitudinal orientation thereof.
- a fourth object of the invention is to provide a slide fastener with an improved stop.
- a fifth object of the present invention is to propose an improved method for the manufacture of such stops.
- each leg member of the bottom plate has a sloping surface extending from the respective flange towards a proximal portion of the leg member.
- This configuration allows the avoidance of any weakening of the crimped tape edges when in use, providing resistance against the stresses to which the fastener tapes are subjected and which tend to pull them out of the stop.
- Such a stop has a quite simple cross-sectional shape, which allows the manufacture of a plurality of stops by shaping a blank wire member by pressure rolling, and subsequently cutting the shaped wire member to the desired size of the stops.
- the above-mentioned second object is achieved according to the invention by a stop as defined above, wherein the bottom plate is shaped such that in the condition of use also the lower side thereof is substantially flat.
- the upper side surface of the top plate is substantially flat, allowing a decoration, such as a logo or a design, to be applied thereto.
- each leg member of the bottom plate forms a convex protrusion adjacent the connecting post.
- Such a configuration allows the avoidance of the formation of gaps between the core (cord) of the fastener tapes and the connecting post in the tape-accommodating receptacles defined by the top and bottom plates and said post.
- the tape edges can be more securely and tightly encompassed therein.
- the stop can be conveniently formed by pressure rolling a blank wire member, though it is also possible to manufacture such stops by conventional die casting techniques.
- a bottom stop having an uneven member formed on a surface below the upper surface of the top plate, allowing to distinguish established top and bottoms edges of the top plate of the stop.
- Such an uneven member which can be a recess or a protrusion, can be formed for instance in an edge position of one end of the stop, preferably in the bottom plate thereof, and more preferably centrally in said bottom plate, on the side of the latter opposed to the connecting post.
- Such an uneven member can be conveniently provided with a sloping surface inclined with respect to a predetermined direction, and capable of being easily detected, for instance by means of a CCD camera, to detect whether the bottom stop is correctly oriented in view of its attachment to the tapes of a slide fastener.
- the above-mentioned fifth object is achieved according to the invention by a method for forming a plurality of stops, having the features defined in claim 20.
- the present invention relates to an end stop. Though in the drawings only a bottom stop can be seen, stops according to the invention could be used in a closed slide fastener which has stops at both ends, if desired.
- FIGS 1 and 2 there is shown a slide fastener 1, of a per se known kind, comprising a pair of fastener stringers, a slider 3, and a bottom end stop 4.
- the fastener stringers comprise respective tapes 2 having a plurality of fastener elements or teeth 5 attached on one side edge in the length direction.
- the slider 3 allows the fastener elements 5 to pass therethrough, whereby the slider slides on said elements 5 to engage/disengage them.
- the bottom end stop 4 is located on the bottom end side of the slide fastener 1 and is attached adjacent to the lowermost fastener elements 5. Said bottom end stop 4 prevents the slider 3 from slipping away downwards from the fastener elements 5.
- the fastener elements 5 are constituted of individual elements fixed at predetermined pitches in the length direction of the slide fastener 1.
- the fastener elements 5 may be of single unit type, or continuous linear zigzag type, and the material thereof may be metal or resin.
- the bottom end stop 4 is made of metal, and is attached by crimping to a core portion 6 formed on one side edge of the fastener tapes 2.
- a stop 4 according to the present invention comprises a top plate 10 and a bottom plate 11, linked with one another at a transversely intermediate position by a connecting post or stem 12.
- the upper side surface 10a of the top plate 10 is substantially flat.
- the upper surface 10a of the stop 4 can be provided with a decoration, such as letters, marks, logos and designs.
- a decoration can be stamped or otherwise impressed onto the stop 4 during the manufacturing process.
- Laser engraving can also be used as a technique for providing said decoration on the top plate 10 of the stop 4.
- the bottom plate 11 slopes downwards away from the connecting post 12 to form two leg members 11a provided with respective flanges 13 pointing upwards towards the top plate 10.
- leg members 11a are deformable from their edges in the direction of the top plate 10, to crimp the cores 6 of the fastener tapes 2 therebetween as shown in figures 2 and 4 .
- the bottom plate 11 of the stop 4 Prior to the application to the fastener tapes the bottom plate 11 of the stop 4 is shaped such that after being deformed or "closed", i.e. in the condition of use, the lower side surface 11b thereof is also substantially flat as shown in figures 2 and 4 .
- the stop 4 can be attached to the fastener tapes 2 without deforming the top plate 10 thereof which possibly bears a decoration, and by applying pressure solely to the shaped leg members 11a.
- the lower surface of the top plate 10 is essentially flat, said lower surface having no flanges protruding towards the bottom plate 11. This feature requires less material and makes the manufacture of the stop more straightforward.
- the decoration possibly provided on the upper surface thereof is protected and consistent.
- each leg member 11a forms a convex protrusion 11c adjacent the connecting post 12.
- Said protrusion 11c is formed on the upper side of each leg member 11a, at the place where the leg member starts to sprout from the connecting post 12.
- the cores 6 of the tapes 2 are substantially circular in shape, in the absence of the protrusions 11c gaps could be formed between the connecting post 12 and said cores 6.
- the protrusions 11c substantially "fill" such possible gaps, holding the cores 6 in position better, and supporting the rest of the leg members 11a when attempts are made to pull the tapes 2 out of the stop 4.
- each flange 13 which points upwards towards the upper plate 10, to hold the corresponding core 6 and tape 2 in place.
- the top of each flange 13 joins with the relevant protrusion 11c through two adjacent, essentially flat surfaces 11d and 11e.
- Surface 11e is the lowest or bottom surface, substantially parallel with the lower surface 11b of the relevant leg member 11a.
- the surface 11d stretches from the flange 3 in a flat sloping surface which joins with surface 11e in a continuous manner, the latter being essentially parallel with the top plate 10 and the bottom surface 11 of the stop 4.
- the protrusion 11c is at the intersection of the base of the connecting post 12 and surface 11e.
- the surface of the protrusion 11c and the essentially flat surfaces 11d and 11e define a sort of groove having a substantially trapezoid transverse profile.
- This trapezium-like profile encircles the deformed core 6 of the corresponding tape 2, cooperating to ensure that no free gaps are left around it, reducing movement and ensuring a stronger grip.
- a distinguishing feature of the stop according to the present invention is that its transverse profile allows the manufacture thereof by properly shaping, in a pressure rolling process, a blank wire. This technique allows easier control of the quality of the metal, avoiding any local weaknesses in the product which, with conventional techniques like die casting, may be occasioned by cracking due to the need to heat and cool the metal.
- a blank metal wire can be continuously shaped so as to assume a final cross-sectional profile corresponding to that of a stop according to the present invention prior to its crimping onto the fastener tapes.
- Such a plastic deformation can be carried out using properly shaped rollers, such as the upper and lower rollers 100, 101 and the side rollers 102, partially and diagrammatically shown in figure 5 .
- the result of such a pressure rolling process is a continuous bar 200 ( figure 6 ) having the transverse cross section of the desired stop prior to application to the fastener tapes.
- Such a rolled wire member or bar 200 can thereafter be cut to the size of the stops, so as to obtain therefrom a plurality of stops 4.
- the upper and lower surfaces of the top plate 10 are substantially flat, with no flanges or other protrusions. Furthermore, the sloping surface 11d is essentially parallel or at a small angle with respect to the plane of the lower surface of the top plate 10.
- stops 4 obtained by the above-described method are to be provided with a decoration on the top plate 10 thereof, such a decoration can be engraved or otherwise provided on the top surface of the bar 200, before cutting it into a plurality of individual stops.
- the individual stops 4 could be provided with the respective decoration after being cut from the bar 200.
- the bottom stop 4 shown in particular in figure 7 represents a further improvement allowing the automatical detection of an established "top” and "bottom” for the stop.
- a stop 4 When a stop 4 is (or is to be) provided with a logo and/or design on its top surface or front face 10a, if the logo and/or design is symmetrical about the horizontal axis, distinguishing the top and bottom edges of the front face of the stop may be not particularly important. However, when this is not the case, it becomes necessary to establish the direction in which the stop 4 should face before it is attached to the fastener tapes.
- the bottom stop 4 shown in figure 7 is provided in a rear side portion thereof with a formation 20, shaped and positioned such as to allow the differentiation of the top edge 10t of the front face 10a of the top plate 10 from the bottom edge 10b of the same.
- top edge 10t of the front face 10a it is meant herein the edge of said face 10a which is adjacent the fastener elements or teeth 5, and by the bottom edge 10b is meant the edge of said surface 10a facing the opposite direction.
- the formation 20 is in general an uneven member or surface portion, and a recess in particular.
- said uneven member 20 may be a protrusion.
- the uneven member 20 can be conveniently provided in an edge portion of the stop, in particular centrally in an edge portion 11t of the lower plate 11, as shown in figure 7 , on the side thereof opposed to the connecting post 12.
- the recessed uneven member 20 is essentially channel-shaped, and includes a sloping surface portion 20a extending between two more or less parallel side surfaces 20b.
- the sloping surface 20a is inclined with respect to a direction orthogonal to the front face or upper side surface 10a of the stop 4.
- the uneven member 20 is provided in the end of the stop 4 which, when the latter has been affixed to the fastener tapes 2, is the top end of the stop, adjacent the elements or teeth 5, as shown in figure 11 .
- This solution is beneficial because the top end portion of the stop 4 is generally harder to see and it reduces the possibility that the edges or points of the uneven member 20 may scrape that with which it may come into contact.
- Figure 8 shows an exemplary apparatus for the manufacture of stops according to figure 7 , comprising a first press member 300 provided with a shaping surface 300a adapted to create a logo and/or a design 40 engraved into the front face 10a of the top plate of each stop 4 as shown in figure 9 .
- the apparatus of figure 8 comprises further an upper stamping cutting press member 301 and a cooperating lower cutting press member or die 302 provided with a hole 302a having a length L equal to the desired longitudinal (top to bottom) size of the stops 4.
- the die 302 has an upper surface 302b which is generally flat, but for a protrusion 302c which has a shape essentially complementary to that of the uneven member 20 to be provided in the stops 4.
- the protrusion 302c is immediately adjacent the hole 302a of the die 302, whereby said hole has a first sharp cutting edge 302d and a second sharp cutting edge 302e at slightly different heights or levels. Said cutting edges are longitudinally separated by the distance L.
- the upper press member 301 has a generally flat lower surface 301a, with longitudinally opposed stamping/cutting edges 301d and 301e, longitudinally separated essentially by the distance L.
- the apparatus of figure 8 operates essentially in accordance with the method already disclosed with reference to figure 6 : a wire member 200 is sequentially stamped/cut to the side of the stops, so as to obtain therefrom a plurality of stops 4.
- the wire member 200 is disposed relative to the stamping/cutting press member 301 and the cooperating die 302 in a position like that shows in figure 8 , such that its leading end 200a extends above the upper surface 302b of said die, beyond the cutting edge 302d thereof by a small amount indicated ⁇ in figure 8 .
- the press member 301 is then moved toward the die 302, and a stop 4 is stamped or cut away from the wire 200.
- a thin waste "slice” is cut away from the leading portion of the wire 200, and an uneven member 20 is created in the "new" leading portion of said wire 200 which will be subsequently stamped or cut to form the next stop 4.
- the leading end of the wire 200 is disposed, relative to the press member 301 and the die 302, in the same position described above, i.e. longitudinally beyond the cutting edge 302d of the hole 302 by an amount ⁇ .
- the provision of the logo and/or design 40 on the front face of the stops 4 can be carried out before or after the stops 4 have been severed out from the wire member 200.
- the press member 301 might also be provided with a shaping surface adapted to engrave the logo and/or design 40 into each stop 4 while this is being stamped/cut away from the wire member 200.
- figure 10 shows a simple diagram of a process for identifying whether each bottom stop 4 in a row is oriented in the correct position or not, before the attachment thereof to the stringers of a fastener.
- a row of stops 4 are imagined to flow from the right to the left from a feeder (not shown, but known per se) to a mechanism for attaching them to corresponding slide fasteners.
- a sensor 400 of a known type, such as a CCD camera, is used to scan the row of flowing stops 4, to determine whether they are oriented correctly or not.
- the rightmost bottom stop 4 is oriented wrongly, and this may be detected from the signals provided by the sensor 400.
- the sensor 400 can be a relatively cheap light sensor: a light beam impinging on the sloping surface 20a of the uneven member 20 of a wrongly oriented stop 4 will not reflect back into a collection/sensing point on the sensor because of the deflection of the light beam by the slope.
- an additional and different material can be attached to the upper side of the top plate 10.
- the upper surface 10a of the top plate 10 does not have to be entirely flat.
- aluminum and aluminum alloys, copper and copper alloys, zinc and zinc alloys can be advantageously taken into consideration.
- Aluminum (or alloys thereof) and copper (or alloys thereof) are most convenient for use in the claimed method.
- the shape of the stop below the design-carrying upper surface can be a profile.
- a better quality of a logo or design stamped onto the stop can be achieved when the logo or design is impressed prior to cutting the rolled blank wire member in the claimed method, as the "plastic flow" of the metal will prevent any unwanted deformation of the leg members of the stop.
