These terms are used mainly for distinguishing one element from another, or distinguishing one signal from another. In addition, the term “or” may be used to include any one or any combination of the listed items, as the case may be.
  • First Embodiment
  • Referring to FIG. 1 to FIG. 6, the first embodiment of the present disclosure provides a zipper head assembly structure Z, including: a sliding member 1 (or a sliding head), a pull tab 2 (or a pull piece), a locking hook 3 (or a horse-like hook), a cap body 4 and an elastic piece 5 (or a flat spring), and the cap body 4 and the elastic piece 5 can be combined with each other to form a cap structure S.
  • Firstly, referring to FIG. 1 to FIG. 3, the sliding member 1 has a first retaining seat 11 and a second retaining seat 12. The first retaining seat 11 has a hook groove 100 shown as a blind hole, and the second retaining seat 12 has a hook hole 120 shown as a through hole. The pull tab 2 has an end portion 20 disposed inside a receiving space 13 formed between the first retaining seat 11 and the second retaining seat 12. The locking hook 3 is disposed on the sliding member 1, and the locking hook 3 has a first end portion 31 disposed inside the hook groove 110 and a second end portion 32 opposite to the first end portion 31 and passing through the hook hole 120 to form a stop portion. The cap body 4 has two opposite end portions (41, 42) respectively disposed on the first retaining seat 11 and the second retaining seat 12, the elastic piece 5 is disposed between the inner surface 400 of the cap body 4 and the locking hook 3 and abutted against the locking hook 3, and both the locking hook 3 and the elastic piece 5 are disposed between the sliding member 1 and the cap body 4 (as shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3).
  • Moreover, referring to FIG. 4 to FIG. 6, the cap body 4 has at least two first inner concave grooves 40A corresponding to each other, at least two first retaining blocks 41A corresponding to each other and respectively extending outwardly from the two first inner concave grooves 40A, and at least two first through holes 42A corresponding to each other and respectively adjacent to the two first retaining blocks 41A. The two first retaining blocks 41A can contact the elastic piece 5 for retaining or abutting the elastic piece 5 (i.e., the elastic piece 5 can be retained inside the cap body 4 through the two first retaining blocks 41A). In addition, the cap body 4 has an inner surface 400, an outer surface 401 and a bottom surface 402 connected between the inner surface 400 and the outer surface 401, the two first inner concave grooves 40A are disposed on the inner surface 400 of the cap body 4, and the two first through holes 42A pass through the cap body 4 to form two breach holes between the inner surface 400 and the outer surface 401 of the cap body 4 (for example, the two breach holes 42A are formed by dotting or punching the cap body 4 from the outer surface 401 to the inner surface 400). Therefore, the two first inner concave grooves 40A can be formed on the inner surface 400 of the cap body 4 in advance, so that the thickness between the inner surface 400 and the outer surface 401 of the cap body 4 can be decreased or thinned (that is to say, the thickness of the material of the cap body 4 can be decreased or thinned), and thus it is easy to concurrently form the first through hole 42A and the first retaining block 41A by a dotting or punching machine.
  • More particularly, referring to FIG. 5, the two first inner concave grooves 40A can be diagonally disposed on the inner surface 400 of the cap body 4, and the two first inner concave grooves 40A are respectively adjacent to two opposite end sides (4011, 4012) of the cap body 4. The two first retaining blocks 41A can be respectively and diagonally disposed on the two first inner concave grooves 40A, and the two first retaining blocks 41A are respectively adjacent to the two opposite end sides (4011, 4012) of the cap body 4. The two first through holes 42A can be diagonally disposed on the outer surface 401 of the cap body 4, and the two first through holes 42A are respectively adjacent to the two opposite end sides (4011, 4012) of the cap body 4. In other words, the two first inner concave grooves 40A and the two first retaining blocks 41A are disposed on the long lateral side of the inner surface 400 of the cap body 4, and the two first through holes 42A are disposed on the long lateral side of the outer surface 401 of the cap body 4. Therefore, the position of the first inner concave groove 40A, the first retaining block 41A, or the first through hole 42A is rotated relative to the end side (4011 or 4012) of the cap body 4 by 90 degrees.
  • For example, referring to FIG. 4, each first inner concave groove 40A has a first end 401A connected to the bottom surface 402 of the cap body 4 and a second end 402A opposite to the first end 401A and far away from the bottom surface 402 of the cap body 4, and the width W of the first inner concave groove 40A is narrowed gradually from the first end 401A to the second end 402A of the first inner concave groove 40A. However, the above-mentioned design for the first inner concave groove 40A of the first embodiment is merely an example and is not meant to limit the present disclosure. In addition, referring to FIG. 5 and FIG. 6, each first retaining block 41A is adjacent to the second end 402A of the corresponding first inner concave groove 40A, and each first through hole 42A is adjacent to the second end 402A of the corresponding first inner concave groove 40A.
  • Referring to FIG. 4 to FIG. 6, it should be noted that each of the first retaining blocks 41A (i.e., the retaining block) has an inner surface 410A extending inwardly from the inner surface 400 of the cap body 4 (that is to say, the inner surface 410A extends along a long axle of the cap body 4, not along a short axle of the cap body 4), and the inner surface 410A of the first retaining block 41A is inclined at a first adjustable angle θ1 (i.e., an adjustable angle) relative to the inner surface 400 of the cap body 4. In addition, each of the first retaining blocks 41A has a first top side surface 411A, a first bottom side surface 412A opposite to the first top side surface 411A, and a first front surface 413A connected between the first top side surface 411A and the first bottom side surface 412A. Moreover, the elastic piece 5 is supported by the two first top side surfaces 411A of the at least two first retaining blocks 41A so as to hold the elastic piece 5 on a predetermined plane P without being changed by a change of the first adjustable angle θ1. That is to say, no matter how the first adjustable angle θ1 is adjusted or changed, the elastic piece 5 can be supported by the two first top side surfaces 411A so as to keep the elastic piece 5 on the predetermined plane P, so that the elastic piece 5 cannot be inclined when the first adjustable angle θ1 is adjusted or changed.
  • For example, referring to FIG. 7 and FIG. 8, the present disclosure provides a first mold M1 including a first processing tool M10, and a second mold M2 including a second processing tool M20. The first processing tool M10 and the second processing tool M20 can be respectively inserted into two lateral sides of a cap body 4′, so that the at least two first retaining blocks 41A can be formed by punching.
  • Referring to FIG. 5 and FIG. 9, it should be noted that the extending direction of each of the at least two first retaining blocks 41A can be changed according to different requirements, but no matter how the extending direction of each of the at least two first retaining blocks 41A is changed, the elastic piece 5 can be supported by the two first top side surfaces 411A so as to keep the elastic piece 5 on the predetermined plane P, so that the elastic piece 5 cannot be inclined when the extending direction of each of the at least two first retaining blocks 41A is changed.
  • Second Embodiment
  • Referring to FIG. 10 to FIG. 12, the second embodiment of the present disclosure provides a zipper head assembly structure Z, and the cap body 4 and the elastic piece 5 can be combined with each other to form a cap structure S. Comparing FIGS. 4˜6 with FIGS. 10˜12, the difference between the second embodiment and the first embodiment is as follows: in the second embodiment, referring to FIG. 10 to FIG. 12, the cap body 4 has at least two second inner concave grooves 40B corresponding to each other, at least two second retaining blocks 41B corresponding to each other and respectively extending outwardly from the two second inner concave grooves 40B, and at least two second through holes 42B corresponding to each other and respectively adjacent to the two second retaining blocks 41B. In addition, the two second inner concave grooves 40B are disposed on the inner surface 400 of the cap body 4, the two second through holes 42B pass through the cap body 4 to form another two breach holes between the inner surface 400 and the outer surface 401 of the cap body 4 (for example, another two breach holes 42A are formed by dotting or punching the cap body 4 from the outer surface 401 to the inner surface 400), and the two second retaining blocks 41B contact the elastic piece 5 for retaining or abutting the elastic piece 5. Therefore, the two second inner concave grooves 40B can be formed on the inner surface 400 of the cap body 4 in advance, so that the thickness between the inner surface 400 and the outer surface 401 of the cap body 4 can be decreased or thinned, and thus it is easy to concurrently form the second through hole 42B and the second retaining block 41B by a dotting or punching machine.
  • More particularly, referring to FIG. 11, the two second inner concave grooves 40B can be diagonally disposed on the inner surface 400 of the cap body 4, and the two second inner concave grooves 40B are respectively adjacent to two opposite end sides (4011, 4012) of the cap body 4. The two second retaining blocks 41B can be respectively and diagonally disposed on the two second inner concave grooves 40B, and the two second retaining blocks 41B are respectively adjacent to the two opposite end sides (4011, 4012) of the cap body 4. The two second through holes 42B can be diagonally disposed on the outer surface 401 of the cap body 4, and the two second through holes 42B are respectively adjacent to the two opposite end sides (4011, 4012) of the cap body 4. In other words, the two second inner concave grooves 40B and the two second retaining blocks 41B are disposed on the long lateral side of the inner surface 400 of the cap body 4, and the two second through holes 42B are disposed on the long lateral side of the outer surface 401 of the cap body 4. Therefore, the position of the second inner concave groove 40B, the second retaining block 41B, or the second through hole 42B is rotated relative to the end side (4011 or 4012) of the cap body 4 by 90 degrees.
  • For example, referring to FIG. 4 and FIG. 10, each second inner concave groove 40B has a second end 401B connected to the bottom surface 40B of the cap body 4 and a second end 402B opposite to the second end 401B and far away from the bottom surface 402 of the cap body 4, and the width (no label) of the second inner concave groove 40B is narrowed gradually from the second end 401B to the second end 402B of the second inner concave groove 40B. However, the above-mentioned design for the second inner concave groove 40B of the second embodiment is merely an example and is not meant to limit the present disclosure.
  • More particularly, referring to FIG. 5, FIG. 6, FIG. 11 and FIG. 12, each second retaining block 41B is adjacent to the second end 402B of the corresponding second inner concave groove 40B, and each second through hole 42B is adjacent to the second end 402B of the corresponding second inner concave groove 40B.
  • Referring to FIG. 10 to FIG. 12, it should be noted that each of the second retaining blocks 41B (i.e., the retaining block) has an inner surface 410B extending inwardly from the inner surface 400 of the cap body 4 (that is to say, the inner surface 410B extends along a long axle of the cap body 4, not along a short axle of the cap body 4), and the inner surface 410B of the second retaining block 41B is inclined at a second adjustable angle θ2 (i.e., an adjustable angle) relative to the inner surface 400 of the cap body 4. In addition, each of the second retaining blocks 41B has a second top side surface 411B, a second bottom side surface 412B opposite to the second top side surface 411B, and a second front surface 413B connected between the second top side surface 411B and the second bottom side surface 412B. Moreover, the elastic piece 5 is supported by the two second top side surfaces 411B of the at least two second retaining blocks 41B so as to hold the elastic piece 5 on a predetermined plane P without being changed by a change of the second adjustable angle θ2. That is to say, no matter how the second adjustable angle θ2 is adjusted or changed, the elastic piece 5 can be supported by the two second top side surfaces 411B so as to keep the elastic piece 5 on the predetermined plane P, so that the elastic piece 5 cannot be inclined when the second adjustable angle θ2 is adjusted or changed.
  • Referring to FIG. 11 and FIG. 13, it should be noted that the extending direction of each of the at least two second retaining blocks 41B can be changed according to different requirements, but no matter how the extending direction of each of the at least two second retaining blocks 41B is changed, the elastic piece 5 can be supported by the two second top side surfaces 411B so as to keep the elastic piece 5 on the predetermined plane P, so that the elastic piece 5 cannot be inclined when the extending direction of each of the at least two second retaining blocks 41B is changed
  • In conclusion, by matching the features of “the inner surface (410A or 410B) of the retaining block (41A or 41B) being inclined at an adjustable angle (θ1 or θ2) relative to the inner surface 400 of the cap body 4” and “the elastic piece 5 being supported by the at least two retaining blocks (41A or 41B) so as to hold the elastic piece 5 on a predetermined plane P”, the elastic piece 5 can be held on the predetermined plane P without being changed by a change of the adjustable angle (θ1 or θ2).
  • More particularly, the two second inner concave grooves 40A can be formed on the inner surface 400 of the cap body 4 by a die casting process and the two first retaining blocks 41A and the two first through holes 42A can be concurrently formed by a dotting or punching machine, so that when the elastic piece 5 is disposed on the inner surface 100 of the cap body 4, the two first retaining blocks 41A can contact the elastic piece 5 for retaining or abutting the elastic piece 5, so that the production efficiency of manufacturing the cap structure S and the robustness of retaining the elastic piece 5 by the two first retaining blocks 41A can be increased.
  • The aforementioned descriptions merely represent the preferred embodiments of the present disclosure, without any intention to limit the scope of the present disclosure which is fully described only within the following claims. Various equivalent changes, alterations or modifications based on the claims of the present disclosure are all, consequently, viewed as being embraced by the scope of the present disclosure.
