Definitions

  • This invention relates to a zip fastener chain of continuous length and has particular reference to a zip fastener chain suitable for attachment to a trouser fly.
  • the invention further includes a method for assembling and attaching a zip fastener chain on and to trouser fly units in continuous manner.
  • the element-free space portion if not satisfactorily formed will adversely affect the slider mounting operation, the coupling of the fastener stringers in correct registry and the finish of the fastener as applied to a trouser fly.
  • FIG. 1 is a plan view of a segment of a zip fastener chain embodying the present invention
  • FIG. 2 is a plan view of the zip fastener chain of FIG. 1 as sewn onto a trouser fly strip;
  • FIG. 3 is a plan view of a single separated fastener chain with a slider mounted thereon;
  • FIG. 4 is a perspective view on enlarged scale of a fastener segment, showing a slider as being threaded therethrogh;
  • each of said elements having a coupling head, arms extending therefrom and a base portion connecting between adjacent arms, a base portion both of said stringer tapes being provided at predetermined intervals with a slider threading region including fastener elements devoid of said coupling heads, and said slider threading region on one of said stringer tapes having a recess extending laterally thereof and slightly beyond said base portion of said element.
  • a zip fastener chain 10 of continuous length which comprises a pair of opposed stringer tapes 11, 12 having mounted along their respective longitudinal edges rows of inter-engaging fastener elements 13.
  • each element 13 has a coupling head 14, arms 15 extending therefrom and merging into adjacent elements and a base portion 16.
  • the fastener chain 10 is provided with slider threading regions 17 at predetermined intervals along therows of elements 13.
  • the slider threading regions orportions 17 of the chain l0' are provided by removing the coupling'heads 14 from a predetermined number of elements 13, with corresponding arms 15 retained in position on the fastener chain 10.
  • These residual arms 15' will serve as a guide for a slider S when threading the same through the rows of elements 13.
  • a recess or notch 18 formed in the residual arms 15 on one of the two stringer tapes 11, 12 and extending laterally of the chain .10 slightly beyond the base portion 16 of the element 13, as shown.
  • This recess or notch 18 provides entry for the shoulder of the slider S and thus facilitates the threading thereof through the chain 10, where the residual arms 15 of the elements 13 devoid of coupling heads 14 function as guide rails along which the slider S are smoothly moved into operative position on the rows of inter-engaging elements 13.
  • FIGS. 6 and 7 The manner in which the slider S is thus mounted on the fastener chain 10 is illustratedin FIGS. 6 and 7, from which it is seen that the slider S is first threaded through the notch 18 in the residual arms 15 onthe left-hand stringer 11 and then through the residual arms 15' on the other or right-hand stringer 12.
  • Designated at 19 is an end stop clamped close at the upper terminal end of the slider threading region 17 for limiting the movement of the slider S.
  • the fastener chain 10 of this construction is shown as applied to a trouser fly F according to the invention.
  • the fastener chain 10 having stringers 11, 12 coupled together in closed disposition is sewn onto a trouser fly strip F by a longitudinal line of stitches 20 in the usual manner and there-after provided with a sliderthreading region 17 as above described.
  • the chain 10 thus sewn is cut to desired length closely across the lower terminal end of the slider threading region 17 as shown in FIG. 2.
  • the slider is now threaded at one shoulder thereof through the notch 18 on one stringer 11 and along the residual arms 15' of the elements 13 as shown in FIG. 3 (FIG. 6).
  • the slider S is further threaded at the other shoulder thereof through and along the residual arms 15 on the other stringer 12 followed by aligning the two stringers ll, 12 in registered parallel position.
  • the slider S is then moved into operative position on the rows of inter-engaging elements 13 as shown in FIG. 7.
  • the form of the notch 18 in the slider threading region 17 may be rectangular as shown in FIG. 5.
  • a slide fastener chain for attachment to a trouser fly or the like comprising a pair of opposed stringer tapes of continuous length and a pair of rows of intersaid stringer tapes having a recess in the longitudinal edge thereof and extending in a transverse direction thereof and slightly beyond said base portion of said element.
