  • the interlocking end portion I3 is substantially arrowhead-shaped which forms upper and lower projections I4 adapted to engage in substantially V-shaped recesses I5 in the elements of opposed stringers.
  • a rib or web portion I6 In each recess on both sides of the fastener element, there is provided centrally thereof a rib or web portion I6, and in each of the projections there is provided a groove or channel I! which is positioned in line with and directly opposite the rib or'web' I6 therein.
  • each of the elements are identical and symmetrical in con struction, and that the stringers may be engaged or disengaged in a universal manner and by a slider moving in either direction along the stringers regardless of the arrangement of the slider relative to the fastener elements.
  • a retainer or socket member I8 which is one part of the separable end connection of my invention, and there is secured to the beaded edge of the other stringer adjacent the endmost fastener element.2b thereof, a pin member I9 which forms the other part of the end connection.
  • the socket member I8 consists of a tubular portion 20 in the form of a pin which is clamped around the beaded edge of the stringer and extends to and preferably abuts the endmost fastener element 2a of that stringer, as shown in Figs. 2 and 3. The upper end of this tubular portion is relieved so as to provide a recess 2
  • a forked portion 22 which forms the'outer wall of the recess 2I-and which extends outwardly angularly therefrom so that the end thereof is disposed substantially directly below the outer end of the coupling portion of the endmost fastener element 2a on that stringer.
  • a hollow box-like member 23 which has a longitudinally extending recess or socket 24 therein arranged on the inner side ofthe tubular extension 20 and extending parallel thereto for receiving and housing the pin I9 of the opposed stringer when the members of the end connection are assembled.
  • the upper end 25 of the member 23 acts as a stop for the slider, as shown in the broken lines of Fig. 1, so as to limit the movement of the slider in the opening direction and also to position the slider for manipulating the members of the end connection for engaging and disengaging the same.
  • This member 23 also retains the slider on that stringer so as to prevent it from being displaced therefrom when the stringers are completely separated.
  • the lower portion of the pin member I9 attached to the beaded edge of the other stringer is preferably curved and extends to and preferably abuts the endmost fastener element 2b of that stringer, as shown in Fig. 2.
  • a finger-like portion 28 which extends outwardly angularly therefrom with the extreme end thereof preferably abutting the outer end of the coupling portion of the endmost fastener element 2b so as to support the same.
  • a projection 21 which cooperates with a shoulder 28 on the tubular extension 20 of the socket or retainer member I8 in amanner and for apurpose' hereinafter to be described.
  • the finger-like portion 26 on the upper end of the pin ,I9 extends into and between the forked portion 22 of the tubular extension 20 with the coupling end portion of the endmost fastener element 2b disposed in the recess 2I of the tubular portion 20 rearwardly of the forked portion 22.
  • the forked portion 22 together with the finger-like portion 26 with which it cooperates, to prevent any transverse movement of the pin and socket members relative to eachother at the upper ends thereof, but the most important aspect of this construction is to tie the upper ends of both the socket and pin members in with the endmost fastener elements 2a and 2b so as to prevent any displacement of these endmost scoops relative to the beaded edge of the stringers and the pin and socket members when it is attempted to flex the fastener in the vicinity thereof. It will be seen also that the forked end portion 2I due to its engagement with the endmost fastener element 21) prevents this element from twisting relative to both the beaded edge of the tape and the pin member I8.
  • the slider l In the use of the fastener when it is desired to completely separate the stringers, the slider l is moved down to its lowermost position at the end connection with the lower end thereof abutting the upper end 25 of the socket or retainer member 23, as shown in the broken lines of Fig. 1, When the slider is moved to such position, it wlllbe understood that the upper ends of the pin member I9 and socket member I8 are separated laterally by the neck portion I of the slider 75 in a manner well known so as to permit the pin assess-s menses it wears ap -threatens: olitof He channel- 8 of the span.
