Abstract

This invention relates to a waterproof zipper, characterized in that a zipper belt is finely corrugated in a lengthwise direction and has a front surface provided with a waterproof layer. With the improved zipper belt formed of a corrugated shape, softness and flexibility of the waterproof zipper can be enhanced. A stress sustained by a belt body of the zipper belt is dispersed in clearances formed between the waterproof layer and the zipper belt when an interlayer of the zipper belt is forcedly deformed Accordingly, with the waterproof zipper of the invention, a clothing and an object attachingly configured therewith can be prevented from being deformed and damaged as being pulled by an improper external force thereon.

Description

Waterproof zipper

The invention relates to a zipper, in particular to a waterproof zipper with a micro-wavy shape.

Clothing in daily life such as raincoats, jackets, or travel goods such as backpacks, tents, etc. with zipper a (as shown in Figure 1) plus clothing or supplies usually need to be waterproof to make them waterproof when the weather changes. Function, but if the zipper a does not have waterproof function, rainwater, liquid from the zipper teeth a1 or the zipper belt a2 surface layer infiltration, there are hundreds of secrets.
Therefore, the development and improvement of the original zipper tape b layer is added to a waterproof layer b1 (as shown in Figure 2), so that the zippered clothing and articles can have complete water resistance. However, such a common improvement method produces a zipper tape b material which becomes hard and has a poor elasticity so that the zipper is not easily pulled. When the clothes and articles with the waterproof zipper are pulled by improper external force, it is likely to be deformed or even damaged. situation.

Accordingly, the present invention provides a waterproof zipper to improve the conventional deficiencies.

The invention is characterized in that the zipper tape is modified into a shape of micro-undulation, and when the zipper tape interlayer is deformed by force, the gap between the waterproof layer and the zipper tape causes the belt body to have a twisted space, that is, the zipper tape is added. The softness and the curvature are such that when the fabric and articles with the waterproof zipper of the present invention are pulled by improper external force, they will not be deformed, damaged, and smooth and easy to pull.

Through the present invention, when applied to various types of ready-to-wear, travel articles such as jackets, raincoats, backpacks or tents, the user enjoys the effects and convenience of the present invention.

Referring to Figures 3-1 and 3-2, in a first embodiment of the waterproof zipper of the present invention, the waterproof zipper includes a set of zipper teeth 10, a sliding member 11, an upper stop member 12, and a lower stop member 13. And the two zipper strips 14; the set of zipper teeth 10 are equidistantly arranged and respectively engaged on the two zipper strips 14, the sliding member 11 is disposed between the two zipper strips 14, and the sliding member 11 is provided with a metal or plastic zipper head 111. The zipper head 111 drives the sliding member 11 to interlace and completely close the set of zipper teeth 10. The upper stop block 12 and the lower stop block 13 are respectively disposed at the top of the set of zipper teeth 10 and the teeth of the zipper teeth 10 The bottom end of the row, wherein the set of zipper teeth 10, the sliding member 11, the upper stop block 12, and the lower stop block 13 can be sprayed with a water repellent or oil repellent (not shown), the set of zippers The tooth 10 may be made of nylon (as shown in Figure 3-1), or a plastic steel fastener element 10A (as shown in the second embodiment of Fig. 4), or a metal fastener element 10B (as shown in Fig. 5). Three embodiments).

Referring to FIGS. 3-2 and 6 , the waterproof zipper of the present invention is characterized in that the zipper tape 14 has a micro wave shape in the longitudinal direction thereof, and the front surface of the zipper tape 14 has a micro wave-like waterproof layer 15 . And a plurality of gaps 16 are provided by the micro-waves of the zipper tape 14, and when the zipper tape 14 is bent, the stress of the zipper tape 14 to be bent can be dispersed in the plurality of gaps 16; as shown in FIG. In the fourth embodiment of the present invention, the waterproof layer 15 can be made flat.

However, the foregoing embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention, and are intended to be understood by those skilled in the art and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. </ RTI> </ RTI> <RTIgt; </ RTI> <RTIgt; </ RTI> <RTIgt; </ RTI> <RTIgt;
