In particular, the fixing nail 100 may be formed of a material containing titanium (Ti). Titanium is a metal with high human affinity and does not cause allergies. Therefore, since the fixing nail 100 in contact with the body is made of a material containing titanium, the occurrence of skin allergies can be reduced.

The metal button for clothing containing titanium according to the present invention is similar to the existing Canton button and swing button. The metal button for clothing containing titanium according to the present invention includes a button body (10) and a fixing nail (100), and a fabric (clothing, etc.) (1) is placed between the button body (10) and the fixing nail (100). In the interposed state, the fixing nail 100 can penetrate the fabric 1 and be inserted into the button body 10. Accordingly, the button body 10 can be fixed to one side of the fabric 1 with a fixing peg 100. One end of the button body 10 is fixed to one side of the fabric 1, and the other end can be freely shaken. The button body 10 can penetrate an external button hole while being fixed to one side of the fabric 1.

The fixing nail 100 includes a support plate 110 and a coupling needle, and the coupling needle may include a post 120 and a tip 130.

The support plate 110 may be formed in a plate shape. The support plate 110 may be formed in a thin cylindrical shape, but the shape of the support plate 110 is not limited in the present invention. The support plate 110 may be located on the other side of the fabric 1 (opposite the side where the button body 10 is located). A protrusion may be formed on one surface of the support plate 110. These protrusions can increase the contact area with the fabric 1 and strengthen friction, allowing the support plate 110 to be firmly coupled to the fabric 1.

The support plate 110 may be formed of a material containing titanium (Ti). As described above, since titanium has high compatibility with the human body, the support plate 110 formed of a material containing titanium does not cause allergies to the body even if it touches the body. Accordingly, metal buttons for allergy-free clothing can be implemented.

The support plate 110 may be formed of a metal containing titanium as a main component and containing impurities. The support plate 110 may be formed of an alloy containing titanium as a main component. The support plate 110 may be formed of a titanium alloy having the following composition.

Ti-X-Y

0 ≤ X+Y ≤ 30w%

Here, each of X and Y may be at least one selected from Fe, Mn, Cu, Co, Ta, Nb, Zr, and Sn. The metals corresponding to X and Y and their addition ratio (w%) can be determined depending on strength, processability, formability, etc.

The coupling needles 120 and 130 are coupled to one surface of the support plate 110 and may be inserted into the button body 10 through the fabric 1. The coupling needles 120 and 130 may be formed to be vertically long on one surface of the support plate 110. The ends of the coupling needles 120 and 130 may be sharp.

After the coupling needles 120 and 130 are inserted into the button body 10, they may be caught on the internal structure of the button body 10 and may not fall out. That is, the coupling needles 120 and 130 can be fixed while being inserted into the button body 10. Since the fabric 1 is interposed between the support plate 110 and the button body 10, the fixing peg 100, the fabric 1, and the button body 10 can be fixed in a coupled state.

The post 120 extends from one surface of the support plate 110 and may be formed in a direction perpendicular to the support plate 110. The post 120 may be formed in a circular or polygonal pillar shape. The diameter of the post 120 may be constant up and down. Most of the posts 120 can be inserted into the button body 10.

The tip 130 may be coupled to the end of the post 120 to form the end of the coupling needles 120 and 130. The tip 130 may be inserted into the button body 10 together with the post 120. The length (length) of the tip 130 may be shorter than the length of the post 120.

The diameter of at least a portion of the tip 130 may be larger than the diameter of the post 120. In particular, at a point where the post 120 and the tip 130 contact, the diameter of the tip 130 may be larger than the diameter of the post 120. Accordingly, the post 120 and the tip 130 form a step. Since the step is caught on the internal structure of the button body 10 after the tip 130 is inserted into the button body 10, the engaging needles 120 and 130 may not be removed from the button body 10.

The end of the tip 130 may be tapered and sharp. This is so that the tip 130 penetrates the fabric 1 well.

The post 120 and tip 130 may be formed of a metal containing titanium as a main component and containing a small amount of impurities. The post 120 and tip 130 may be formed of an alloy containing titanium as a main component. The post 120 and tip 130 may be formed of a titanium alloy having the following composition.

Ti-X-Y

0 ≤ X+Y ≤ 30w%

Here, each of X and Y may be at least one selected from Fe, Mn, Cu, Co, Ta, Nb, Zr, and Sn. The metals corresponding to X and Y and their addition ratio (w%) can be determined depending on strength, processability, formability, etc.

Here, the post 120 and the tip 130 may be formed of the same material as the support plate 110. That is, the entire fixing nail 100 may be formed of the same material containing titanium. The fixing nail 100 may be manufactured by integrally forming a support plate 110, a post 120, and a tip 130. For example, the fixing nail 100 may be manufactured as a single piece through a mold.

When the entire fixing peg 100 is made of a metal containing titanium (titanium as a main component), the entire fixing peg 100 does not cause allergies and can be safely used by the wearer.

Meanwhile, in the case of existing canton buttons and rocking buttons, the ends of the coupling needles 120 and 130 are distorted by external force, thereby fastening the fixing nail 100 and the button body 10. In the present invention, the coupling needle ( 120, 130) is not distorted or bent. In particular, when the tip 130 is made of a metal containing titanium as a main component, a crushing or bending process cannot be applied due to the high strength of titanium. Therefore, in the present invention, the fixing nail 100 and the button body 10 are firmly fastened by the tip 130 described above. Ultimately, the metal button according to the present invention can secure fastening force between components while exhibiting an allergy-free function by using titanium material.

1 and 2, looking at the button body 10 in detail, the button body 10 may include a head 11, a pillar 12, and a rotating part 13. .

The head (11) corresponds to the decorative part of the button and is located at the front. The head 11 may be a circular (or polygonal) plate-shaped body or a ring-shaped plate-shaped body.

The pillar 12 is a pillar that supports the head 11. The pillar 12 may have a cylindrical (or polygonal pillar) shape. An insertion passage 14 for inserting the coupling needles 120 and 130 may be provided inside the pillar 12. The button body 10 may be formed by bending a plate-shaped base material. The insertion passage 14 may be provided by part of the base material being rolled inside. A stopper structure 16 may be formed at the end of the insertion passage 14.

The rotating part 13 may be rotatably coupled to the pillar 12. The rotating part 13 is inserted inside the pillar 12 and can rotate around the pillar 12. The rotating part 13 can be inserted into the insertion passage 14 described above. A hole 15 corresponding to the insertion passage 14 is formed in the rotating part 13, and the hole 15 may be located inside the insertion passage 14. The coupling needles 120 and 130 may be inserted into the hole 15.

The stopper structure 16 may include a flange formed by bending the end of the hole 15. The tip 130 may be seated on the flange of the stopper structure 16. These flanges may be formed by bending outward. The bent portion may be located at the end of the insertion passage 14.

The tip 130 may be inserted into the hole 15 and then caught on the stopper structure 16 and may not come out again. The diameter of at least a portion of the tip 130 may be larger than the diameter of the hole 15. The maximum diameter of the tip 130 may be larger than the diameter of the hole 15. Accordingly, the retracted tip 130 may not come out again through the hole 15.

However, in the present invention, the shape of the stopper structure 16 is not limited as shown in the drawing, and any shape that does not remove the tip 130 may be possible.

Meanwhile, the button body 10 may be formed of a metal containing aluminum as a main component.

Looking at the method of fastening the button body 10 and the peg 100, first, as shown in FIG. 1, the button body 10 may be placed on the peg 100. And the fabric (1) is disposed between the button body (10) and the fixing nail (100).

As shown in Figure 2(a), an insertion passage and a hole 15 are formed inside the button body 10. The post 120 and tip 130 may penetrate the fabric 1 and enter the hole 15.

Here, when the post 120 and the tip 130 are introduced into the hole 15, the hole 15 may instantly expand (open). In particular, if the post 120 and the tip 130 are mainly made of titanium and the button body 10 is mainly made of aluminum, the hole 15 may open because the strength of titanium is relatively strong and aluminum has good elasticity. You can.

As shown in FIG. 2(b), after the post 120 and the tip 130 are completely inside the button body 10, the hole 15 can be restored to its original position by the elasticity of the material. And at this time, the tip 130 may be caught on the stopper structure 16. Accordingly, the button body 10 and the fixing peg 100 can be firmly fastened to each other. Meanwhile, the top surface of the tip 130 may be in contact with the inside of the button body 10, but this is not limited.

Meanwhile, in the case where the rotating part 13 is present, the head 11 and the pillar 12 can rotate even if the button body 10 is fixed to the fabric 1 by the fixing peg 100.

A stopper structure 18 that catches the tip 130 may be provided at the end of the insertion passage 17. The stopper structure 18 may include a flange formed by bending the end of the insertion passage 17. The tip 130 may be seated on the flange of the stopper structure 18. These flanges may be formed by bending outward. The bent portion may be located at the end of the insertion passage 17. That is, the end of the insertion passage 17 rolled inward may be bent outward.

The diameter of at least a portion of the tip 130 may be larger than the diameter of the insertion passage 17. The maximum diameter of the tip 130 may be larger than the diameter of the insertion passage 17. Accordingly, the inserted tip 130 may not come out again through the insertion passage 17.

However, in the present invention, the shape of the stopper structure 18 is not limited as shown in the drawing, and any shape that does not require the tip 130 to be removed may be possible.

Referring to FIG. 4(b), the coupling needles 120 and 130 are inserted into the insertion passage 17, and the tip 130 may not be pulled out again to the outside due to the stopper structure 18. Accordingly, the button body 10 and the fixing nail 100 can be firmly coupled without the existing processing step of crushing the ends of the coupling needles 120 and 130 with tools such as a press or hammer.
