It is well known that, a zipper is a fastener generally including two tapes each having a row of metal or plastic teeth, and is used for connecting the edges of an opening (such as a garment or a pocket). The zipper has a slider which can pull the two rows of teeth into an interlocking position, to seal the opening. The above metal teeth or plastic teeth are zipper teeth, and a zipper head base is pulled upward or downward relative to the zipper teeth to realize the engagement or disengagement of the zipper teeth. The puller is connected to the zipper head base and is to be hold by people by hand to be pulled upward or downward, thereby realizing the engagement and disengagement of the zipper teeth.

FIG. 1 andFIG. 2 of the specification, the zipper head base 1 is provided with a through hole, and the through hole is arranged for thepuller 4 to pass through, so that thepuller 4 can rotate relative to the zipper head base 1. The rotation direction is defined as a first direction in the present application. - When dressing, people normally holds the
puller 4 and pulls thepuller 4 upward along the length direction of the body, to achieve the engagement of the zipper teeth. Thepuller 4 includes a first end and a second end, the first end cooperates with the through hole of the zipper head base 1 to realize rotation, and the second end is away from the through hole. - Before being pulled upward along the length direction of the body, the second end of the
puller 4, under the action of gravity, tends to face downward and is below the zipper head base 1. Thus, it is required to hold the second end by hand to rotate thepuller 4 relative to the zipper head base 1, to ensure that the second end is above the zipper head base 1, such that thepuller 4 can be pulled upward, thereby achieving the engagement of the zipper teeth. - In the above process, the rotation direction in which the second end is rotated from a position below the zipper head base 1 to a position above the zipper head base 1 is defined as the first direction.
- During the rotation of the second end, since generally there is a certain gap between the second end and the through hole of the zipper head base 1, the
puller 4 sways left and right relative to the zipper head base 1 during the rotation in the first direction. The swaying direction is defined as a second direction in the present application. Apparently, the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction. - A position-limiting portion is arranged on the
puller 4 according to the present application, and the position-limiting portion and the through hole of the zipper head base 1 form a hinge-like form, thereby preventing thepuller 4 from swaying in the second direction Therefore, the left and right sides of the puller are steady when the puller is pulled upward or downward by hand, achieving a steady process of engaging or disengaging the zipper teeth and ensuring the convenience of dressing. - The position-limiting portion may be embodied as a
