Abstract
The slide fastener assembly comprises a pair of opposing fastener tapes 5, 6 with co-operating coupling elements 7, 8, and a slider with a guide channel for coupling and uncoupling the coupling elements. One end of each pair of tapes is reinforced by means of a stiffening layer 23, 24 extending along at least one surface of the tapes. The stiffening layer can be manufactured by injection moulding a thermoplastics material onto the surface of the tapes. When the fastener is in the fully closed state, the stiffening layer can, by acting to maintain the tension in the tapes, prevent uncoupling of coupling elements subjected to an externally applied stress. End stops 30, 31 are preferably provided at one or both ends of one or both tapes. The slider may be received in a docking region 35, 36 located in the stiffening layer of at least one of the tapes.
Description
SLIDE FASTENER ASSEMBLY
The present invention relates to a form of top stop for &de fctencr. More particularly the present invention relates to a top stop for a slide fastener assembly with a locking arrangement suitable for use in applications in which the slide fastener is subject to changes in tension, most particularly but not limited to the use in tents and the like.
The present invention finds particular application as a top stop for a slide fastener assembly with a locking arrangement suitable for example for holding together opposing sides of a tent entrance when the tent is used in extreme climate conditions. More particularly, extreme climate conditions in which the tension of the tent material and hence the tension of the slide fastener assembly varies, during use.
Slide fasteners, also referred to as zip fasteners, usually comprise a fastener tape, which may be woven or knitted and which is made for example of polyester thread. To the fastener tape are attached fastener elements or coupling elements, which are either moulded or crimped onto a reinforced edge of the tape, or alternatively are in the form of a continuous coil which is * woven or knitted into the tape or stitched to the edge of the upper surface of S the tape.
S..... * S
Slide fasteners for the camping industry and especially tents are well known.
Such slide fasteners are also known to experience gravitational forces when the tension of the material comprising the tent changes. For example, when a tent is erected under wet and windy conditions and the material of the tent is subject to rainfall, the rainwater absorbed by the tent material has a tendency to cause the tent material to bow under the weight of the rainwater. As a consequence, the loss in tension of the tent material is transferred to the slide fastener with the result that the slider may be caused to inadvertently slide along the coupling elements, thereby opening the slide fastener and hence causing the entrance of the tent to open. S 2
A similar situation may arise in windy conditions whereby external forces acting on the tent material cause the body of the tent to move erratically agitating the slider such that it again moves along th coup!i.n.g elements opening the slide fastener in the process and hence the entrance to the tent.
A possible solution to this problem is to incorporate into the slide fastener assembly a lock for the slider, thereby preventing the slider from moving inadvertently.
For example, in typical locking slide fasteners, a pin is secured to the body of the slider between the elements thereby preventing the slider from passing along the coupling elements. However, when this solution is applied to tents which are utilized in sandy environments, the coupling elements, the pin, the slider and the top and bottom stops of the slide fastener are subject to wear caused by the silica particles becoming trapped in between the coupling elements. As a result, the slide fastener rapidly ceases to function correctly when this type of system alone is employed since the locking pin and slide fastener readily become worn. * *. * * . * *.
*:* Alternatively, in extreme weather conditions, the pin of a typical locking slide : fastener may simply be caused to be dislodged, again resulting in the slider * moving along the coupling elements and opening the slide fastener in the 1*S..
* process and hence the entrance to the tent. * S * ***
In US 3,505,710 (Optical Holdings AG) there is described a slider fastener formed from an opposing pair of stringers comprised of continuous helicoidal coupling elements and wherein a pair of end-stop members at opposing ends of the stringers prevent removal of a slider from the stringers during use.
More specifically, the end stop members are formed from thermoplastic material that is molded to the stringer tapes. In this way, the end stop members are securely attached to the stringer tapes to avoid the inadvertent loss of the end stops and hence loss of a slider when in use. * 3
In US 3,309,746 (Talon mc) there is described a slide fastener assembly with an improved end stop in which there is provided a reinforcing tape end with integral end stops for a slide fastener which c.n h pp!'ed to the stringer tapes while in continuous chain form. The reinforcing tape is preferably comprised of thermoplastic material and is molded into the required shape by the application of suitable dies. In this way, the coupling elements that are applied to the tapes do not have to be cut out or gap spaced' thereby limiting the speed of production.
In DE 1610388 (Opti-Werk GmbH) there is again described a slide fastener with an end stop provided on a continuous length of stringer, the stringer being comprised of a pair of tapes with coupling elements attached thereto.
Movement of a slider along the stringers past the end stop is prevented by the presence of a barrier of ribs or segments located on each stringer.
However, none of the prior art documents address the problem of maintaining a constant tension in a slide fastener in the region of the end stop.
The present invention therefore seeks to address the problems outlined above *.. . and provides an improved slide fastener assembly that is able to meet the demands of changes in tension applied to the fastener elements of a slide fastener. * *
In the present invention, a reinforced coating or stiffening layer is applied to *....: an upper portion of opposing pairs of stringers forming the slide fastener assembly. Whilst not wishing to be bound by any particular theory, it is believed that the presence of a reinforced coating or stiffening layer on the upper portion of the stringers serves to reduce the usual tension that is present in the region of the fastener elements of the stringers when the fastener is in use. Consequently, the natural tendency of the slider to move along the fastener elements and hence open the slide fastener when external forces are applied to the slide fastener is reduced.
The present invention is further improved by way of a docking region applied to each side of the opposing pairs of stringers and into which a slider may be positioned therhy thcir nc1!ocking the sde fastener. The presence of locking region enables a user of the slide fastener to know instinctively when the slider has reached the locking region and thereby be assured that the slide fastener is in the fully closed position.
Therefore according to a first aspect of the present invention there is provided a slide fastener assembly, suitable for use in camping equipment comprising: a pair of opposing fabric fastener tapes having (co-operating) coupling elements mounted thereon on opposed edges of the tapes; a slider, which is slidable along the tape edges to couple and uncouple the coupling elements, the slider having a guide channel through which the coupling elements pass; and wherein at one end of each pair of tapes there is provided a stiffening layer, which extends along at least one surface of the tapes thereby maintaining the tension in the tapes in the region of the stiffening layer.
*... The stiffening layer is preferably comprised of plastics material, more *...
preferably thermoplastics material. * . *
* Furthermore, the stiffening layer preferably extends along and over a portion S....
* of each tape and is preferably applied onto at least one surface of the tapes. *. * S * ...
In the slide fastener assembly of the present invention, the slide fastener preferably further comprises an end stop located at least at one end of one or both tapes. The end stop is also preferably comprised of plastic material, more preferably thermoplastic material.
In addition, the end stop is preferably moulded onto the one or more ends of each tape.
Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention the end stop is also preferably moulded to the stiffening layer such that the end stop and stiffening layer appear as a continuous unit at the one or more ends of each tape.
The slide fastener assembly according to the present invention also preferably comprises a docking region for receiving the slider on at least one of the tapes. The docking region being provided at least at one end of the slide fastener in the region of the stiffening layer and prior to the location of the end stop.
The docking region is preferably comprised of plastic material, more preferably thermoplastic material.
In a preferred embodiment of the present invention the stiffening layer of the slide fastener assembly is shaped to form the docking region. Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment the stiffening layer extends below the docking region.
More preferably, the stiffening layer extends below the docking region by an *:*::* amount equivalent to at least the length of the body of the slider.
One advantage of the slide fastener assembly of the present invention is that the stiffening layer provides and thereby ensures a rigid inflexible portion of the coupling elements, whereby the tension of the slide fastening in the region S.....
* of the stiffening layer is maintained. S. * . * S..
According to a second aspect of the present invention there is provided a method of forming a slide fastener assembly as described in relation to the first aspect of the present invention wherein a stiffening layer is applied in a specified area onto at least one of the tapes. Preferably the method of application is injection moulding. The moulded stiffening layer is preferably a thermoplastic material.
The slide fastener of the present invention finds particular use in the camping industry in the formation of camping equipment, more specifically in the manufacture of a tent but is not limited thereto. S 6
Other aspects and preferred features of the invention will be apparent from the following description, drawings and the ccompanyng c!3m.
The invention will now be further described by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which: In Figures 1 and 2 there is illustrated alternative plan views of a slide fastener assembly according to the present invention with the slider removed for ease of clarity and in Figure 3 there is illustrated an enlarged view of a slide fastener assembly according to the present invention.
In Figures 1 to 3 the slide fastener assembly 10 comprises a pair of stringers 3, 4. Each stringer comprises a tape 5, 6 which is made for example from woven polyester fabric. Attached to each of the tapes there exists a continuous coil of coupling elements, 7, 8. The coupling elements 7, 8 are either stitched or woven into the edge of the tape 10 as is well known in the art. The coils are mounted on a first upper side 12, 14 of each tape 5, 6. * 0* * I I * *
**.*s* In the forgoing description it will be appreciated that whilst terms such as top' I..
and bottom' and upper' and lower are used in the context of describing the *..: slide fastener of the present invention, the slide fastener may be used in any orientation. Consequently, these terms are only used to assist in understanding the operation of the slide fastener.
S
I.....
* At one end of the slide fastener, referred to herein as the upper end 20, there is provided a stiffening layer 22. In the preferred embodiment of the present invention illustrated in Figures 1, 2 and 3, the stiffening layer 22 comprises a first portion 23 and a second portion 24. The first and second portions of the stiffening layer are minor images of each other and are located at the top or upper end of the stringers 5 and 6.
In a preferred embodiment of the present invention the first and second portions of the stiffening layer are not only located on the upper surface of the tapes 5 and 6, but in addition extend over a substantial portion of the tapes and also underneath the tapes to the lower surface of the tapes. The stiffeninQ layer does not however tend over the coip!ng e!ements.
The stiffening layer is preferably moulded onto the surface of the tapes.
The thickness of the stiffening layer is preferably no higher than the height of the slider.
The stiffening layer is preferably comprised of a plastics material, most preferably a thermoplastics material.
One function of the stiffening layer is to ensure that the top portion of the slide fastener covered by the stiffening layer does not flex, thereby providing a rigid portion of the slide fastener. Preferably, the stiffening layer extends from the top of the slide fastener along the longitudinal length of the fastener.
Preferably, the slide fastener extends along the length of the fastener by an amount equal to at least twice the length of the body of the slider (not shown). * S.. * . *S*.
Also, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the stiffening layer is moulded onto the fastener tapes. In addition, as the stiffening layer is applied to the tapes, the top most portion of the layer forms an end stop 30, 31 on :. each tape, thereby preventing loss of the slider when in use. The end stop * . portions 30, 31 are not moulded onto the tapes but are also moulded to the S.....
* coupling elements 7, 8 forming a raised region above the coupling elements at the end of the fastener and further strengthening the attachment of the stiffening layer to the tapes.
Likewise, a further preferred feature of the present invention is that the stiffening layer applied to the fastener is moulded to form a docking region denoted by 35, 36 on each side of the tapes respectively.
The docking region 35, 36 is shaped to correspond to the shape of the body of the slider (not shown). In effect, a portion of the moulded stiffening layer being omitted forms the docking regiOn In use, as the slider moves along the coupling elements the coupling elements are drawn into a channel in the slider and as a result, the coupling elements are connected to form an interdigitating array. As the slider approaches the stiffening layer, the slider is first drawn over a stepped portion 40, 41 of the stiffening layer. This stepped portion of the stiffening layer will cause a user to feel some resistance as the slider is pulled over the stepped portion, however, the depth of the stepped portion is not sufficient to unduly prevent movement of the slider along the coupling elements. As a user continues to draw the slider over the coupling elements, the slider passes over the stepped portions 40, 41 on opposing sides of the stringers 3, 4 until the slider reaches the docking region, denoted as 35, 36. At this portion of the slide fastener, the resistance experienced as the slider moves over the stepped portion is removed.
Continued movement of the slider past the docking region is prevented as a result of the moulded end stops 30, 31 at the top end 20 of the slide fastener.
SS
*..: A most preferred feature of the present invention is that the stiffening layer 55.... . . * . extends along the tapes in the region below the docking region by an amount :. equal to at least the length of the body of the slider, thereby providing a * . suitably stiffened top stop and docking region at the top end of the stringers. * 5
Therefore, the present invention provides an improved slide assembly that is able to meet the demands of changes in tension applied to the fastener elements of a slide fastener. That is, in certain situations when the slide fastener is closed and is experiencing tension as a result of forces (such as for example strong winds) acting on the slide fastener, the acting forces may try to cause the slide fastening to open. Opening of the slide fastener is affected by moving the slide fastener from a position in the region of the end stop along the tapes so that the slide fastener begins to take on the form of the traditional Y' shape typically known for slide fasteners. However, when a stiffening layer is applied to the slide fastener in accordance with the present invention as described above, if the slide fastener i opened due to external forces acting on the slide fastener the formation of the Y' will cause the central point of the Y', that is the slider, to engage with a portion of the stepped region thereby preventing further movement of the slider along the slide fastener.
An alternative embodiment of the slide fastener arrangement is illustrated in Figures 4 and 5.
In Figures 4 and 5, the slider is again not shown for ease of clarity, and the slide fastener 100 comprises a pair of stringers 113, 114, each comprised of a pair of tapes 115, 116, to which are attached coupling elements 117, 118 as illustrated.
The tapes are woven tapes of polyester and the coupling elements are sewn onto the reinforced edge of the tapes. * ** * . * * **
In this alternative embodiment, a stiffening layer 150 is again provided at a **.
first (top end) of the slide fastener assembly 120 to form a suitable stiffened region on the assembly. The stiffening layer is comprised of a first portion and a second portion 156 located on opposing sides of the tapes. In this arrangement, a stepped portion 123, 124 exists on both tapes. A slider * * moving along the fastener will encounter a certain amount of resistance as the ****** * slider is drawn over the stepped portions 123, 124 before reaching the docking region 124, 126 at the top end of the fastener assembly.
Movement of the slider past the docking region is prevented by an end stop 130, 131 present on each of the tapes. S 10
